Some very startling charges have recently been made against the Greene Gold company of New York, operating placer claims in Sonora. This company was organized about year ago, and was soonI paying divi- dends, which in all have amounted to about S100,000. 1t is now claimed that these mines have never pro duced any gold to speak of, and that the dividends have been paid from the sale of treasury stock. Investors it is said, had experts visit the ground in the guise of working men, who have reported that the mines were not producing and that prac- tically no work was being done. At meeting of the directors in New York it is said by the newspaper that Colonel Greene intimated that some one would most probably be hurt if such reports were continued.
 He then left the office, and is sup posed to be on his way to Mexico.
 Since this occurred all of the engin- eers of the Sierra Madre railroad have been called in, hence it seems probable that work on MT. Greene's great railroad enterprise will be sus- pended, temporarily at least, It has been known for some time that MT. Greene was eXper1enClnS trOuOle Tn financing his railroad enterprise. and was personally hard up for ready money, which probably accounts for the large amount of Greene Consoli- dated stock thrown on the market during the last few weeks. which broke the market. If the allegations in regard to the Greene Gold com pany are correct, it would seem that Mir. Greene is in pretty serious trou- ble, but men who know him best scout the idea of his having done such foolish thing as to. pay divi- dends not earned by the company. If he has done so his influence as d promoter has ceased, and his new en- terprise will fall flat. The ERA can not believe that Mir. Greene, who has made such a phenomenal success, would lend himself to such methods.

A RECEIVER APPOINTED
For the Arizona Savings and Investment
 Company.

The serious charges made against the officials of the Arizona Savings and Investment company, which will be found on the fourth page of this paper, is a matter of grave import ance to many in this district where a large amount of the stock is held. At Morenci it is thought that proba- bly, S75,000 worth of the stock had been subscribed for, a large per cent. of which was approaching maturity. It is likely that the people of Mo- renc1 have paid in from S25,0 to S4O,OO0 on their holding. No large amount of stock is held at Clifton.
 From the showing made in court blythe company it is not likely that the investors will receive more than fifty per cent. of the amount they have paid in. Instead of the stock proving a savings bank for them it has practically developed into a permanent investment from which they will receive no returns.
 Wm. Griffith, formerly superin- tendent of the penitentiary, has been appointed receiver of the com DanV.

South Clifton School Meetina.

On Saturday night last a rousing meeting was held at the South Cliff ton school for the purpose of select ing site for the new school build ing. A letter was read from Super intendent Moody, defining the metes and bounds of the school district, which agrees with the recently dis covered "new' line of the district, hence there can be no further doubt that the thew line" is the ''old line" of the district. As the residents of that portion of the district which was heretofore believed to be in the old district, had not been advised of the meeting, it was drought best to postpone the meeting for another week, that all residents who care to do so might have an opportunity to participate inseleCting a site for the new school house. The meeting was adjourned until next Saturday night, at which time the location question will be definitely settled.
 So far but two locations have been offered, one by the Shannon company on the heights immedieately above river and the other by Henry Hill just back of the addition which he has recently surveyed aud offered to the public. The location offered by the Shannon company is gift to the district, while MT. Hills proposition was to exchange ground for the site owned by the district, and upon which the school is now situated Mir. Hill will offer a proposition at the next meeting to make the dis trict present of the new location, provided the district will stand it's pro ratta of the expense of building a breakwater to protect the fiat against floods.
 The people of what might be called the old part of the district re- gret that an error was made in the boundary lines of the dist rict, as it will have a tendency to unsettle school matters and will also occasion the erection of a larger building in order to accommodate the pupils brought in by the new line. The old district was large enough with out this addition of new territory. However, the matter is now definite ly settled, and cannot now be changed, except by cutting off a DOT tion of the district and adding it to the North Clifton district, and then it would have to carry with it it's pro ratta of the indebtedness of the district. Under these conditions it is uot likely that an effort will be made to interfere with, or change the boundaries as are now recog- nized, as are shown by the records to exist.

The colored population of Clifton celebrated Emancipation Day Mon day last in beautiful grove on the Gila river. About fifty people at tended, and all had a good time. There was an abundance of good things to eat, also plenty of lemon ade and ice cream. Emancipation Day commentaries the granting of freedom to the colored people of the United States, and is a day which should always be observed by them in a befitting manner. And by the way, since gaining their freedom, the colored people have made marvellous advancement in every avenue of life, and they deserve great credit and en- couragement for it. Next to Abra- ham Lincoln the man for whom the colored people should have the great est respect is Booker T. Washington, the Moses of the negro race. Wash ington was himself a slave, but since freedom he has acquired classical education, built and equipped one of the largest educational institutions in the country, and better still, he has used his wonderful ability for the betterment of his race.

The concert given at Prettyman's hall Tuesday night last, for the bene- it of the Catholic church, while not attended as it should have been, was nevertheless a success in a financial way. The piano recital by Miss Bre- man was the feature of the evening. Miss Bremen plays only classi- cal music, but it is done in such manner that even those who are not familiar with high class music can appreciate and en- joy it. Miss Bremen was assisted on the program by George Gray, of the Shannon mine, who rendered cou- pie of Dutch monologues, and also '. B. Inglis, in recitations, each of whom contributed greatly to the en- ioyment of the evening. F. B. Laine who was on the program for a song, was called away on important legal business, which was a great disap- pointment to his friends. J. F. Cleaveland, of Morenci, who was also on the program, was prevented from appearing by an accident which befell him last week, making it i'm possible for him to appear. How ever, the program, as d whole, was greatly enjoyed by all present. Miss Bremen has been engaged by the Knights of Pythias to appear at Douglas and Bisbee in the near future. The people of those towns have a rare treat in store, as Miss Bremen is an artist of ability.

MAN AS MOTIVE POWER.
Much Better Engine Than
Locomotive.

ITO test the efficiency of man az an
engine" says the Boston Herald. Prof.
Atwater of Wesleyan university has
been engaged recently in making some
remarkable experiments, employing a
stationary bicycle as means Of meas
uring the power developed by muscu-
lar rider
by the simple expedient Of making
the tire Of the rear wheel (the cycle has
no front wheeD pass between two cleo
trO-magnets. which are connected with
a dynamo all of the energy transmitted
10 the pedals is converted into a current
Of electricity. This current can be meas
ured, and thus il is ascertained exactly
how much power is employed.
The rider operates his wheel inside
of a great box of wood lined with metal.
He is not permitted to leave the box for
several days and nights, and all of his
food and drink is carefully weighed In
this way the amounts of fuel and water
supplied TO the human engine are accu-
rately ascertained, and the total energy
which they represent can be easily figured
out
AS a result of the experiments, it has
been found that a man is much better
engine than a locomotive, yielding near
ly twice as much power for a given
amount of fuel He is superior in this
respect to the best and most economical
pattern of automobile In fact, no kind
of engine as yet contrived-steam, gaso-
line or electric-is equal to him as pro-
Queer of energy.
Prof Atwater says that the most
economical engine built to-day utilities.
in the shape of work, only ID per cent. Of
the energy contained in the fuel supplied
70 it. The human power machine devel-
ops 20 per cent. without counting what
is required TO keep the internal mechan-
ism of the body running. OF course. il
takes considerable power TO keep the
heart-pump going, and the digestive ap-
paratus in operation. To reckon the ex-
penditure for these and other functions
at an additional 20 per cent. would not
be over the mark.
Thus it is seen that the human engine
runs with much less waste than any me-
chanical cOntrivance yet devised. Man
stands to-day the model machine, and,
with all his Wanted ingenuity, he can
not construct an apparatus that comes
near TO equalling J Is own body as a
work-producer Nor, indeed, will any
other kind of engine, though built of the
best obtainable material, run for any
thing like so long period without wear
ing out, requiring in the same time so
small an expenditure for repairs"
