the kaiser that he is emperor by

There are a good many sales
being made on prospect holes
from one to five thousand dol

quarter of century in age, is
only in it's infancy, It is a near
neighbor to the United Verde
copper mine, and in the same
chain of mountains. This chain
Of mountains, known as the
Black Hills, offers one of the
best fields for prospectors in the
territory Of Arizona, as the in
nunerable hills are a perfect
network of veins containing
every kind of metal, and there
are numerous springs that af-
ford an abundance of water for
all mining purposes, and plenty
of timber.-Ex.

G. T. Neel, has charge of the
SierritaS lead group, says there
is a remarkable caVe on the west
side of the Sierrita mountains.
Neel and a fellow prospectof
entered the cave and explored
it for the distance of mile,
when they came to a drop off,
the depth of which is unknown.
Some of the old miners of the
section have superstitiOus ideas
regarding this cave. One story
which is youched for by several
miners is that a prospectoF once
entered the cave and never re-
turned. What became of bum
no one knows, but many claim
that the noises emanatiug from
the cave are made by him drill

precious metals. Mr.. Neel says
that he has frequently heard
these noises, and more than once
he has been asked by people
passing the cave who was work

DOGS KILLED BY GAS.
Humane Method of DIsposing of Them
Adopted in Chicago.

The Chicago Humane Society has at
last hit upon novel but effectual
means of disposing of vagrant ours be-
fore the heat Of summer sets in. They
are being gathered up from the streets
and asphyXiated by gas. Calls are re-
sponded to by the Humane society
when made by residents of the city
who may be bothered by stray dogs.
A number of women, who may be actu-
ated by humanitarian impulses, are CO.
operating with the society to gather
up the animals left to wander and
starve along the thoroughfares. 1t is
largely due to their repeated requests
for a milder means of destroying dogs
that the new scheme of determination
by gas has been brought about. They
consider death by shooting an unnec-
essarily painful process. A small
metal tank closely sealed with tight
cover is filled with common illuminat-
ing gas admitted by a tube. A small
aperture in the cover permits the air
at a time, the dogs are dropped, the
gas is turned on, and in thirty seconds
they are unconscious and in less than
a minute they are lifeless. Two feet
Of gas is considered sufficient quantity
to kill dog, and the expense amounts

WANTS TO SELL HIS BODY.
ContortIonist Wants n Customer for His
Corpse

Although by no means desiring 70
shuttle off this mortal coil, Walter
Wentworth wants to sell his body. He
has done it twice already in his life
time, and now, although in his seven
ty-fifth year, he is looking about for
another purchaser, and If he finds one,
he thinks he has a good chance of sur
viving him, too, says the New York
Herald. Walter is what is ordinarily
called freak" He is a contortion-
ist, and the queer things he does with
his legs and his arms, and even his
spinal column, are enough to make
the eyes of the ordinary person bulge
out to dangerous extent. Even physi-
clans are puzzled at the curious way
in which he handles himself, and it
was doctor who first suggested to
Wentworth the idea of selling his
body. 1t was just sixty years ago that
Wentworth ran away from his home
near Detroit, Mich, to ride race horses.
Then he Joined a travelling circus and
went the whole world over. With all
his knocking about and the seventy
five years he carries, be is just as live
ly and supple as a 15-year-oid boy. 1t
was while he was being exhibited in
Detroit in 1870 that he got a chance to
sell himself. Dr.. Cove was greatly in
terested in him, and offered 800 for
his body after he had done with it,
for dissecting purposes. Wentworth
jumped at the offer; the money was
paid down. The doctor, however, con-
veniently died within few months.
Wentworth came to New York five
years later, and was able on the trip
to persuade DR.. H. L. Wilder of the
Kings county hospital to take stock
in him at the same price, a case Of
getting in on the basement floor if DR..
Wilder should live. He thinks Dr.
Wilder will be unable to fill his part
of the contract. He is therefore anx-
ious to find somebody else who will
invest in him.

Offers TOROCGANING.


Hill just for Fun.
1t seems strange to think that any
stfull grown, four-footed animal should
indulge in play like child, and yet
this is what the otter does. His
amusement is tobagganing, and his
playground is slope, covered with ice
or snow, that goes down grate into
pool of water No little boy, with a
new sled, ever enjoyed a coast down
an ice-bound hill more than this beau
tiful creature from the frozen north.
The otter is quite large, sometimes
weighing as much as % pounds. He
resembles the seal and the mink, be-
ing, however, of heavier build, and is
both supple and strong. Living for
the most part in water, he preys on
fish, which his swimming and diving
ability enables him to catch easily.
The entrance to his home, which is
burrow in the bank of a stream, is
under the water. In the early spring
when the ice begins to thaw, these
animals start on their travels from one
stream to another, sometimes spend
ing months on the journey. If they
happen to see an inviting hill by the
wayside they Immediately stop their
pilgrimage and prepare for some sport.
One Of the number leaves the water
and slowly climbs the slope, making
smooth hollow in the ice with his
wet body. When the slide is pre-
pared, he lies fat on his belly, thrusts
his nose forward, and turning his fore
paws under his soft sides, goes sail
ing swiftly down. His speed steadily
increases until he reaches the water.
Silently he parts the surface and is
lost from sight for a few seconds; then
his head appears above the surface
and you can hear him give a call which
sounds like a whistle. This is a sig
nal. The next otter assumes the posi-
ton and shoots down to the bottom 10
join his companion, who has mean
while crawled out on the ice. Then
another whistle and the next in order
slides and piunges, and the perform
ance is kept up until each one has
several trips to his credit.-Exchang
