PopnIar FnIncy Exploded.

The Scientific American states that the venerable bogey of the crystailiza- ton of steel and iron in bridge struc- lures is consistently trotted out. It is probable that large percentage of the passengers daily crossing Brooklyn bridge believe that the metal of the bridge is deteriorating ''crystalliz- ing"-and that the wire cables, unless they are renewed, will in the course of time give way and precipitate the whole bridge into the river Tests in the la- buralory and haii a century's tests in the field, supplemented by the recent careful tests made by Prof. Carpenter, of Cornell, prove that this view is no longer enable. There is no reason why, with careful inspection to pre- vent oxidation by the weather, the met al of such structures as the Brooklyn and Forth bridges should not last as n- definitely as if it lay imbcdded in the ore from which it was extracted.

Teachers Examination.

The county board of school examin- CTS met on Monday. Present-Judge P. NJ. Thurmond, A. c. Pendlet0n and E. N, Tardy.
 There was only one applicant pres ent, Miss Anna Wilson, of Wheat Fields school. Miss Wilson has given very good satisfaction as teacher, and she passed very creditable ex- animation.
 Two other teachers, who held tenn porary certificates, failed to appear; consequently theircertiIicatesw have to lapse. They are Miss Webb, of Greenback, and Mr. Holder, from the upper part of the county.
 First grade county certificates were granted to the following teachers, without examination, on their normal school diplomas: Francis Edwin Ball, superintendent of the Globe public schools; Miss Josephine Hama, assist ant in the Globe schools, and Miss Inez Coffee, teaching at Tonto.

There a.a several similar towns in the Celes- ticl empire.
 In New Guinea the village of Tupuse- lei is most remarkable. The houses are all supported on piles and stand out in the ocean a considerable distance from shore This is to protect the villagers from thc attacks of the dreaded head hunters always looking out for victims. Other villages in this queer land are perched up in trees for the same reason.
 There is town without name on Lake Huron. It is composed of 5G0 huts. During the summer the dwellings, are hidden away in the brush tenantless, but when winter comes their owners appear, move them out on the ice, cut a hole through the floor and the ice and proceed to fish.

Railroad Rumbiiugs.

The number of carloads shipped out on the G. V., G. x N. railroad during the month of November from Globe station was sixteen, and the number of carloads received was los. Of the outgoing the larger portion was cop per from the old Dominion company and copper ore by various firms. Empty beer kegs and bottles and dry hides also figured in the forwarded freight. Of the incoming carloads almost half carried merchandise, the remainder being divided among ship ments of coke, hay, grain, mining ma chinery, beer and lumber. Some indi- cation of the amount of building con- tinuing is evidenced by the receipt of twenty carloads of lumber during the month.
 There are four carlords of lumber on the way for the new cottages tQ be built by MT. Garland.

It is expected that all the cottages will be finished by the middle of next month.
 The grounds around the railroad shops are being cleared of rubbish, and | the tracks and grounds around the de- pot and in the yards of the company cleared of rocks and rubbish. It will not be many days before neatness will be the order and untidineSS the eXcep- ton around the premises.

Thanksgiving at Ellison.
ELLISON, Ariz., Dec. ?, 1899.

ELLISON, Ariz., Dec. ?, 1899. EDITOR BELT:
 | thought it would be interesting to your readers to know how we spent Thanksgiving, away up in this part of the country. MeSsrs. Frank Ketcher- side and Chas. Mcfarland gave a Thanksgiving bail and dance at the Flying Y" ranch, which was at- tended by upwards of forty persons.
 The guests all arrived by sundown, and after an early supper we repaired to the large dancing floor, built ex- pressly for the occasion and enclosed with canvas. Dancing was in order until 10 o'clock, when we were called to the ''big supper" The tables were loaded with turkey, pork, cakes and pies splendid repast-prepared by the Misses Ellison and Mrs. Kyle, who never overlook an opportunity to make everything success. Our hosts, with the assistance of MT. James Hale, at tended to our every want
 After supper we returned 10 the ball room, and the floor being newly waxed, dancing was resumed and con tinued until the sun rose upon most beautiful day. After breakfast the horses were brought in from the pas ture and we took our departure for our respective homes with the thought in- delibly fixed in our minds that Messrs. Ketcherside and Mcfarland know just how to entertain. GUEST.

 The trustees of this district will either have to levy tax for the pur- pose of q new school building or hire a hall, as new SC lolars are constantly coming in, and Il present delapidated sO-called school house is not sufficiently large enough for the number.
 There was very little news from the mines during the past ten days. Those who have property of merit are at work completing assessment orquietly developing new ore bodies. The Erie is showing up big ore bodies as work progresses, and of high grade. It is generally understood that an eastern party has an option on the Pranty and Gowan property. At the Mazatzal copper group the owners have started a croSScut at the bottom or oO-IoOt slaft, which is in good ore. They are also making other developments which show good bodies of ore. Charlie Hill is still pushing down shaft on his property, which is in good ore. Wm. Craig and Paul Vogel are at work on the Occidental mine, opening up a new ore body. This property is gold.
 There is some talk of an Odd Eel lows lodge being started in Payson.

house in Copper street a couple of days
ago. Lindsay, it appears, refused to be
taken to the pest house, and Dr. Mon-
roe sought legal advice as to whether
he had the power to remove him
against his will. City Attorney Lambs
advice was that a man having a resi-
dence, could not be removed from that
residence if he did not desire to be re-
moved. On this advice DR.. Monroe act
ed and did the only thing left open to
him. He ouarantined the floor of the
lodging house where the case developed
and this raised a strenuous protest.
Fergus Kelly, brother of the landlady
of the house. called on the authorities
and protested against the mans being
allowed to remain in the house. He
was told the authorities were poweress
to take the man out of the house If he
refused to go, and Mr.. Kelly carried his
protest before the council last evening,
where he got the same reply he then
threatened to find means to remove
the man himself. y
In accordance with the power confer
red upon the health officer by the coun-
Gil last evening. DR.. Alexander an
nounced that the old rigid quarantine
regulations will be returned to and the
disease will be handled with strong
hand. Wherever case of smallpox de-
velops, should it be in a public lodging

antined for "a hours and all the in
mates vaccinated. This is in cases in
which the patient is removed to the
pest house. But if the patient remains
in the house, the whole house will be
quarantined Private residences will
be treated as in the past. DR.. AleXan-
der also proposes to inforce vaccina-
ton in all public rooming houses. I'm
der his direction the police will go
through all lodging houses ana require
the inmates to furnish certificates Of
vaccination. This, it is thought, will
be one of the most effective measures
yet adopted in the direction of an eff
fort to stamp out the disease.
One more smallpox patient was sent
to the pest house yesterday. He is Ell
lichson, laborer who lived at 51o
North Wyoming street. He made his
appearance on the street about l o'clock
and was soon into the alley in the rear
of the postoffice. An officer was sta
toned there to watch him till DR.. Mon
roe could arrive. He pronounced the
case one of smallpox and sent the man
to the pest house. The case is a bad
one, the mans face being almost one
