He was ap- preaching his tent, dreaming of other days, when he was suddenly aroused from his reverie by this ferocious member of the feline family. As the cat showed fight, Pad made a head-end dive for his tent. Gaining the inside, he grab bed his gun and clambered to the ridge pole, where he remained for several hours, fearing to shoot the beast, owing to the likelihood of only wounding and enraging it the more. There he hung suspended between heavens cerulean blue and the bobcats yawning jaws until the Baumgartner boys arrived and cleared the field of danger.

Two Republics and Four States-There

A few days ago the Citizen repro duced an article from an unknown exchange reciting the fact that Ari- zona, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah formed a junction of four corners, one monument being sui ficient to mark the boundary lines of four commonwealths. The writer stated that there was not a similar instance in the United States and doubted if such condi- tions existed elsewhere in the world.
 Since the publication of that item we have learned that which is not generally known in regard to a similar state of fact On the inter national boundary line, about sixty miles east of Tombstone, the states of Chihuahua and Sonora form a junction with Arizona and New Mexico, the four corners coming so closely together that one may stand in two republics at one time and shake hands with those of four different states, and if he wears a No. g shoe he can stand upon the terra firma of two republics and four sovereign states, a fact that does not exist in any other portion of the globe

As general superintendent of the A. x P., he made his home in this city for several years, and he has always taken a lively and helpful interest in its welfare. This fact the citizens fully appreciate and they are very glad to note his rise in the railway world. Apart from his personal popularity along the line, it is well recognized that MT. Wells is one of the ablest rail road men in the west. As general superintendent of the lines west of Albuquerque, he has achieved the most gratifying results. For over a year he has been in effect general manager, and assumes the duties officially with the certainty of still greater success. Nothing can be learned regarding the successor to MT.

vide "The Champion" for the king. His
was an important-character to play in
the days of knighthood, and his chal-
lenge thrown out to any who opposed
the coronation of the king was not
without its possibility of acceptance,
followed by the mortal combat with
flashing spear and dashing steed. But
notwithstanding that that exciting
feature of coronation has long since
passed away, the part is to be gone
through with again on the occasion of
the browning of King Edward, as it
was in the days of King George w.,
when the crown was placed upon his
head. Following are the quaint words
of the challenge used at that time:
"If any person, of what degree So
ever, high or low, shall deny or gain
say our sovereign, Lord King George
WITH of the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland, Defender of the
Faith, son and next of heir to our SOW
ereign, Lord King George lid, the late
king deceased, to be the right heir to
the imperial crown of this United
Kingdom, or that he ought not to en-
Joy the same, here is his champion,
who saith that he lieth, and is false
traitor; being ready in person to COM
bat with him, and in this quarrel will
adventure his life against him on
what day soever he shall be APP
pointed"
Something of the scene which will
be enacted at the coming coronation
may be gathered from the account of
the browning of King George ". The
king took the oath with much solem-
nifty, kissed the Book and signed the
oath. Its purport was, that he would
govern the realm according to the
laws of parliament, cause justice to be
executed in mercy and maintain the
Protestant religion as established by
law. The archbishop of Canterbury
administered it and put the crown on.
/ But this particular coronation was
not without it's awkward and amusing
feature. The marquis of Anglesea, as
lord high steward, carried the crown
up to the altar, before the archbishop
placed it on the kings head. 1t was

IRRIGATING MACHINE.
A Novel Device for EIevating Water
from Streams and Discharging
1t on Higher Land.

It is becoming more and more ap-
parent that irrigation is destined to
have larger place in the agriculture
of the humid portion of the United
States than a few years ago was
thought possible. Market gardeners
around all the large cities of the coun-
try are coming to realize the profit
Id security from drought which it
brings, while the development of the
arid west by irrigation is soon to oc-
cupy a place in the affairs of the ma
ton, being already under investigation
by the department of agriculture. The
solution of the problem of irrigation
rests largely in the quantity of water
available and ability to direct it about
the land at low cost. David Hutton, of
Quartette, New, has designed novel
machine for elevating water from
streams and discharging it on higher
land, the apparatus working automat-
tcally and without cost, after the in
