A GLOBE ENTERPRISE
Organization of An Electrical Power
 Company.

An enthusiastic meeting was held in the court house Tuesday evening by number of the principal business men of Globe, 10 examine into the details cr Charles W. Clark's water p.w"" Hn 1 s.le .rri:;u proposition, and consi,I=r ,he natter of organizing a home company and build and operate the required plant, says the Silver Belt.
 MT. Clark has had the whole enter prise examined by MT. H. H. Sinclair, president of the ReGlands, Cal, Power and light company, and of the $ 1uthern California Fewer company. Mir Sin clair is the most prominent water pow CT and electrical transmission expert on the Pacific slope, and in all matters of this nature his report is considered final and conclusive. His report upon MT. Clark's proposition is favorable Tn the extreme. both as to the possibility of generating ample power and as to the market for the power, which he re- ports is most excellent.
 The conditions governing .hc opera tiOns of power plants by seam in this vicinity ere such that renI1r the ope- ration of water and electric power most attractive one. The high price of fuel and the absolute certainty that the supply of wood is limited to about three years consumption make it necessary that some other power be obtained, and MT Clark's proposition to put in water power machinery and transmit the power electrically to the Globe and Ray districts would seem to be the 0na thing needed 70 insure the prosperity of this section for all time to come.
 There are great many small mines throughout the distric which have reached the ''whim' stage in develop ment and cannot be carried beyond that on account of the cos of install ing steam plant and the fmpossibiIi- ty f obtaining wood for this class Of service. it is proposed that the company operatin the plant provide q number CT an and fifteen horsepower mC-or hoists to be rented to the smaller min. until they have reached a pro- ducing stage in development.
 O"ing to the lateness of the hour when Mir. Clark had finished reading various reports, estimates, etc, sh w ing he proposition to be both praCti- cal and profitable. the me ting was adioTrled. At the next meeting the or ganization will be completed, making Glohe, as j. should be, the headquarters of this enterprise.

not a piece of furniture in the house
which does not stand right side up.
The Illusion is produced by means Of
mirrors arranged in such a manner
that the visitor is compelled to look
at them instead OF at the furniture.
and while he thinks he is gazing di-

reality gazing at glass which Is set

junction with the Pacific Mail and the

were built In American yards. Nippon
is the name OF the largest island In
the group and Maru is the japanese
word for steamship.
Sampans are the special beauty spots
OF the harbor. They are the odd little
boats that take the place of rowboats
used In other ports. They are long.
low. narrow boats. partly housed over.
and are propelled In n most peculiar
manner. Instead OF oars or paddles. a
single long wooden blade Is employed
at the stern TO push the f,at vessel
along at u lively gait. BY swinging
wrist and swaying body motion the
boatman produces an action In the
water like that OF the tail of hsh
or the blades OF a propeller. II was
not necessary for the Sumner to drop
her launch into the water during the
three days We were In Sasnsaki.
Swarms of the little sampans sur
rounded the ship at all hours. all anx-
ious to carry the visitors ashore at Ave
cents head. T.s peculiar propulsion
gives the boat Jerky motion. not at
all unpleasant. that reminds one OF n
ride In concy Island In a whirligig. A
good illustration Is shown In the Nip
