MICROBES IN HOLY WATER,
BacteriOIOeist Found Dangerous
BnciIIi in Some.


BacilIi in Some.
From the Philadelphia Medical. Journal.
DR.. Abba Nancet, correspondence, Dec.
%, 1899, a distinguished bacteriologist and
health officer of Turin, Italy, has been for
some time examining the holy water con-
tanned in the fonts attached to the pillars
or walls of Turinese churches. Thirty-one
specimens have been examined by himself
and his assistants, and the results more
than confirmed his anticipation that such
water may be an effective conduit of dis
ease. The water is constantly exposed to
dust, and the fingers dipped into it are
not always the most Clearly. The church
authorities state that salt is put into the
water as hygieuic measure, but it is well
known to physicians that salt is not an
effective dislnfectant. 1t is stated that
the sacristans are not usually even care
full to keep the fonts or the pillars to
which they are attached clean. Among
the bacteria detected by Dr. Abba's re
searches were the bacillus of diphtheria
and bacillus of tuberculosis. He recon-
mends as precautionary measures that the
fonts and pillars be carefully washed and
disinfecied that the font itself be daily
dsnfected and the water be treated with
some antiseptic.
There are. no doubt, many other sources
of far greater danger in spreading infec-
tious diseases than holy water, but when
II has been shown that such a danger ex-
lists be ii ever so slight, the wisest course
is to take measures to avoid It. Prejudices
in such matters of hygiene are no longer
so strong as formerly, and the same en-
lghtenment that has led to the introduce
ton of the individual communion cup in
many churches win no doubt lead TO the
removal of this source of infection as soon

FORTUNE CAME AT LAST
A Pioneer Who Stayed With Arizona
 Till He Won Out.

Away back in the early days one of of Phoenix was Tom Childs, a miner, prospector, cattleman and all-round pioneer, who could turn his hand to anything that presented itself as a means of livelihood or that promised reasonable returns. Everybody be- tween Prescott and Tucson knew him and was always glad to meet him. whether in street or camp, for as a matter of fact in those days everything was free and easy, and formal intro auctions were unnecessary.
 MT Childs can best be identified with the infant life of Phdenix by connecting him with the property on the corner of East Adams and Third streets which he owned at that time.
 Phoenix was his headquarters though in reality his home was in the hills, where various prospects, were dis covered, worked to a finish and de- serted. Tommy, his son, then a bright faced little fellow, was his constant companion and a favorite with inti- mate friends.
 About fifteen years ago MT. Childs sold his property here for S1, ,000 to Cap tain John King, another pioneer long ago called to his reward. and went down into the hills near the Ajo mine south of Gila Bend. He bought a few cattle and lived the precarious life cf cattlenan during the years when to be a cattle king was no assurance that ones checks were sought for by the banks. Incidentally MT. Ghilds put in his spare moments locating some good prospects. He drove stakes on lots of them and while many of them were not worth the value of the stakes for firewood others have proved to be bonanzas that will afford him comforts i and luxuries for his declining years.
 Little Tom had been almost forgotten till few years ago a murderer named Price broke jail in Phoenix and took flight through that section of the coun- try. When Deputy Sheriff Prothero and posse came along they found a very valuable guide in young Tom who had then grown to be as big as any one and who joined and remained

WRITES FOUR NOVELS AT A TIME

Guy Boothby is enc of the lucky peo- sale, even in time of var.
 Guy Boothby would be She last per son to take himself or his work serious ly. Any one who can undertake to write four novels at a time, and within a given time, can hardly be expected to spend much time in worrying over the method. All last summer, for instance, this is what ne was uoIng, and it little seemed to trouble him. Rising at o'clock he would speak his four install ments for the day into four separate phonograp to be afterward tram scribed by his secretaries and dis patched to their various destinations. This left him free for the greater part of the day to attend to what is really the serious business of life to him-to the management of his charming little estate on the banks of the Thames at Sunbury.
 Here he has kennels stocked with size and variety of dogs. from the great white. Russian wolf hound down to the tiniest speciment of black Pomperanian, though his principal hobby is bulldogs. Here, too. in the conservatory leading out of the drawing room, are his aviary of foreign birds and his collection of quainI. tropical fish, collected by him in his wanderings in the south seas; and here, too, on the beautiful streams at the bottom of the sloping green lawn, lies his steam launch. It is the home of a successful writer and the charac- teristic home of writer Of adventure novels that are never to be taken seri- Ously. Yet there was an early effort of

APPLES ON THE MARKET
They Are Small and Knotty but Good
 in Pies.

Eastern people who are familiar with Northern spy and Ben Davis apples as large as musk melons. might not con descend to call the apples on the Phoe- nix market by their right name, but nevertheless they are here, and while small and hard and of a lack-fiavor taste, they are apples, just the same. They come in small quantities and as the price is 1215 cents per pound the sales are in proportion to the quality. They are sent in from California, and while not exceptionally good in a raw condition are very. acceptable in pies and dumplings.
 With the exception Of melons and grapes the Prunus Simoni plum is about the best fruit now on the market. It has flavor that is peculiarly pleasant, between that of an apple and a pine apple and is growing in popularity as a table fruit and as a preserve. The burbank plum is new addition in market stock and the local supply is raised on the Clawson ranch. Sultant grapes are down to cents per pound and the grape supply will be augmented in a couple of weeks by the black grape and the muscat. Blackberries are burned up, strawberries are not of a fine quality and a few raspberries are shipped in. The Logan berry is here in short quantities. It is a cross between the blackberry and the raspberry and is a delicious fruit. Homegrown to- matoes are coming in and nearly all of them are raised by MT. S. Miller, east of the city. The Sweethear var iety is the finest watermelon now ob- tainable, It is particularly sweet and well-fiavored and has a very thin rind.

ride There were five contestants for
 the prize offered for the best decorated ladies wheel and the SlO gold piece was 1 awarded to Mrs K K.." whose ma chine was covered with yellow ribbon and Japanese lanterns. while a small
 wheel occupied a place at each side of 1 her saddle. Mrs. w. Edwards and ! Misses May White, Beatrice Brawley and Edith Brooks also had handsomely l decorated mounts. Dr. Wineman cap tured the gentleman's prize, with bi- ] cycle covered with flags and bunting and'an acetylene lamp at each hub. C.. l s. Bergman was the closest competitor i of Dr. Wineman.
 A brilliant finale to the day was the exhibition of fireworks at the corner of Seventh avenue and Washington street. Captain J. J. Wickham was in charge. and was assisted by Daniel Sidell and J. F. Singleton, while four or five thousand people were crowded around within an area of two blocks. There were twenty five set pieces, including triangles. wheels. banners, crescents and stars, with a last large one, Goodnight" be- sides several hundred fountains, rock cts and Roman candles.
 NOTES OF THE DAY
 There were comparatively few acci- dents. with the exception of the usual number of burned fingers and faces. Roy Mckay. a waiter at a Center street lunch stand, had his hand severely scorched by the premature explosion of a giant cracker. Will Harris. a resi- dent of Capitol addition, had his eye temporarily put out by a small cannon, and there were several other accidents of minor importance, al probably ac- cepted in the spirit of the occasion and with the cheerfulness for which the pa triotic American youth is noted.
 It was a jolly day for the firemen. After the exhibition in the morning they gave an informal reception at the engine house. A dinner was served. composed principally of one hundred pound fish sent by A. F.. Cobb, q mem- Der of the department, who is sojourn- ing at Los Angeles.
 The country people who drove in to attend the celebra tion almost outnum- bered the city people. A great many residents spent the day on picnics in the country. The road to the Camel Back and Hole-in-t the Rock was heavily travelled, a dozen or more parties going to these points to escape the noise.
 The police had a quiet day. The sa- looms all did a tremendous business, but the crowd was unusually orderly, and few arrests were made. Several men who had more liquid inspiration tran they could carry were gathered in. but were handled leniently and turned loose as soon as they sobered up. One individual, too drunk to know his name tried to drive through the crowd, and will be fined this morning.
 The Bicycle club was so well pleased with its parade that it will give several such affairs during the summer

RICH STRIKE NEAR VIRGINIA
Gold Find Causes 8 Rush to Eoun-
 diary Cone.

Although rich strikes are too numer- ous to attract much attention in this county says the Mohave Mineral Wealth, one of more than usual impor- tance has occurred in the past few days that has agitated the miners all over this section. Last month Henry Loven. deputy sheriff, grubstaksi a-A Mexican prospector to g over into the river range to search for gold. Within twenty miles of Kingman he discovered a gold ledge that is far more important than any othtr strike that has been made in the county for years. A ton of ore was brought in yesterday and sold to one of the sampling works. It gave a return of twenty ounces in gold. yAn assay taken on the ledge, which is plainly tracsable a mile, 2.500 feet from where this ore was mined, gave fOrty-ssven ounces in gold. The high grade streak is foot wide, and q sample from eight feet gave $22. The ledge prospects it's entire length, and in many places the crOppings are twenty feet aabove ground. The strike is on the east slope of the river range across the Sacra- mento valley, due west of Kingman
 and near Boundary Cons, we'll known landmark. Quite an army of. prospet- tors have gone to the new district.
