DISCOVERY OF PEAT BATHS.
Treatment Now Quite Generally Ap-
proved the Result Of an
Accident.

The discovery of the value of peat
baths was made accidentally many
years ago. On the coast of Finistere
there lived at one time a poor family.
The father of the family eked out a
scanty living by killing aged cattle
and divesting them Of their skins.
The CHASTITY remains he sold to tan
ners and retiners.
OF the three children which belonged
to this couple one was poor creature,
delicate and wretched and apparently
half-witted. The mother was so
ashamed Of this boy that she could not
bear to have the child in her sight.
Consequently he spent most of his
time, half clothed and badly fed, roll
ing about in the peat bogs which were
behind the cottage. Little by little it
was. noticed that the child was i'm
proving in health, that his skin was
becoming as fair and soft as a peach,
his eyes bright and his spirits and ac-
tions those of a strong, healthy boy,
instead of half-witted little animal
The old country physician on one
of his rounds noticed the improved
conditions of the boy and mentioned
the fact and the cause at a medical
in Paris. The result was
the use Of the peat bath, which leaves
far behind any other kind of hydro
therapic cure known to this day and
Its success is becoming greater each
season.

BROKE THE RIDING RECORD
half Breed Who Rode 12O Miles in
Ten Hours at Steady
Gallop.

"You people who came here since the
railroads were built have an idea that
we used to have bad time of it in get
ting about Washington territory" said
an old timer the other day, relates the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. That's
where you are wrong. Distances were
no greater than they are now. True, we
didn't always go so fast as you do now,
but we made speed that would astonish
you.
II remember one trip an old friend of
mine made, big cattleman from Kitti-
tas county, afterward the owner of con-
siderable property in Seattle His di-
vorced wife was living here, and she took
it into her head to go after him through
the courts for nonpayment Of alimony.
There were a number of reasons why he
shouldn't pay, but he didn't care to stay
here and argue it out with the courts,
SO getting a tip on what he was doing he
decided to go back to the cattle in Kitti-
tas.
about six o'clock one evening, ac-
cOupdHlcQ ny Ills llOiaS WlduSlCA3 wiz
happened to be here with him, he struck
out horseback for Ellensburg. The two
rode all night-it was in midsummer
and at the full of the moon-and the next
morning they ate breakfast in Ellens-
burg-110 miles away. And they didn't
think it was much Of ride at that.
"At that time nearly all the Indians
on the reservation had half-breed or
at least one pretty good horse in his rid
ing string. This particular young half
breed boy had an extra good one, and he
was selected to carry the dispatches, be-
ing reliable and faithful fellow. Well,
he rode through to Walla Walla in ten
hours, a distance of 100 miles, and dur
ing the ride he never slowed down from
a gallop, That was in midsummer, and
if you have ever been in that Snake river
region at this season of the year you can
imagine that was some riding"

DreadIuI Attack Of whOOping Cough,

Mrs. Ellen Harrison Of 300 Park Ave
Kansas City, Mo. writes as follows:
"Our two children had severe attack
of whooping cough, one of them in
the paroxysmof coughing would often
faint and and bleed at the nose. We
tried everything we heard Of without
getting relief. We then called in our
fam lily doctor who prescribed Foley's

feel that it has saved their lives.

MOOD AS A PHOTOGRAPHER.
Some Varieties Are Found to Be Far
More Active Than Are
Others.

A curious property of wood, whereby
1t is able to photograph itself in the
dark, is described by DR.. William j.
Russell in a paper recently read before
the London Royal society This prop
erty has been shown by experiments
to belong probably to all woods, some
woods. however, being much more ac-
tive than others To obtain a picture
the wood must be in contact with or at
a little distance above the Photographic
plate and must remain there for times
varying from half an hour to IS hours
and be at temperature not higher
than 131 degrees Fahrenheit.
The wood of the conifers is active
and gives pictures which are definite.
If the action exerted on the plate be
owing to the presence of hydrogen
Deroxid, as has been suggested, it must
be produced by the resinous bodies
present in the wood, but it is remarka-
bic that there is no action from the
dark autumn wood Resin exists in
the dark rings, but apparently under
such conditions that it cannot escape
With the spruces the action on the
plate is not so definite With regard
to woods other ehan conifers, oak and
beech are both active and give good
pictures, as do also acacia (Robinia),
Spanish chestnut and sycamore. On
the other hand, ash, elm, horse chest
nut and plane are in comparison but
slightly active. Knots in a wood gem
orally, but not always, give a good pic
ture.

A Night Attack.

Last night the little daughter of Mrs.
Brown, she sweetly and peacefully
slept in her little bed near the window
was attacked by a death dealing known
as Group Whooping Cough, and but
for the timely use of Kennedys Lax
ative Honey and Tar, which she al
ways keeps handy, the life of the
little one might not have been saved.
Kennedy's Laxative Honey and Tar is
different from all of the old-time
cough syrups and is the best for the
children because it acts on the bowels

ing James Shulz; sam Abraham, in possession of Elizabeth Kane; Hugh Quinn, who adopted Gabrielle Walsh; Helen Tong, in possession of Violet Lanovick.
 It is set forth in the applications that the New York Founding Hospital never relinquished control of the chill dren but put them into the hands of the parties with whom they had been left with the understanding that they might at any time be taken away. The contention is that the applicant under the laws of New York had been em- powered to act as guardian of the chill dren and was guardian when they were forcibly seized by the residents of Morenci and Clifton. The applicant being then guardian the children were not subject to adoption.
 A peculiar thing in connection with this case is the subpoenaing of wit nesses before the chief justice. That was never done before in this terri tory There was received at the office of the sheriff yesterday a subpoena for A. P. Hobbs The sheriff's office was informed that MT. Hobbs would be found at the Ford hotel. He was found there, having arrived yesterday morn ing from the south
 He was seen last night by a report CT for The Republican, who asked him what connection he had with the case. He replied that he was the deputy sheriff at Morenci and that he had as- sisted in taking some of the children from the persons with whom they had been left by the priest and that when the indignation was the highest he had materially aided in preventing the priest from being lynched
 When Governor Brodie was in the east last fall the New York Found ling Hospital brought the case to the notice of the president, who asked the governor to make an investigation of the case. He did so and reported that the children had originally been put into bad hands but that the persons who were then in possession of them were able to furnish them good homes
 The attorneys for the applicant are Eugene $. Ives and Thomas D. Ben nett.

A NEVADA VISITOR
E. B. haxsOn, Secretary of National
 Irrigation Congress.

H. B. Maxson of Reno, New, spent yesterday in Phoenix, arriving in the morning from Tucson and leaving on this mornings $. F., & P train for the coast. MT. Maxson, though a cit izen of Nevada, is by no means a stranger in Arizona, as he lived in Tucson and Tombstone from 1879 to somewhere about 1S90 covering the period generally referred to as the good old pioneer days. He was al- ways an active man and is well known to those of the old timers who are still busy in the field of action.
 But there is still another bond Of in terest between Mir. Maxson and the people of Arizona, through the fact that MT. Maxson is now and has been for seven years past, secretary of the national irrigation congress. His headquarters are now in Portland, Oregon, where the next congress is to be held. Beside being neck deep in the official work of that organization MT. Maxson has in recent years also spent considerable time in Washing ton in the interest of irrigation meas ures.
 Naturally he is very proud Of the Tonto storage project and is sanguine of the good things that will come to this valley on its completion. He has though a little deeper personal interest in the Truckee project, for the req son that it is to benefit his home sec tion. The Truckee project is really the first one to be taken hold of wig orOusly after the passage of the na- ional irrigation law and is nearer completion than the Tonto enterprise. It is not a storage enterprise, however, but a project for the diversion of wat CT always plenufuIly supplied by the Truclee river from Lake Tahoe, the great natural storage basin.
 There is a tract of about 75, ,000 acres around Truckee which is all ready under cultivation and which this project does not affect, the water be- ing diverted from a point lower down the river and not far from Reno. Nat urally the water continues down the valley through a canyon and sinks in mud basin. At the headgates near Reno it is diverted and carried through a canal bearing to the southwest un- til it reaches a big fiat valley in which the Carson river sinks away and rises no more. It is the Carson flats that are watered by the Truckee river with Lake Tahoe water.
 This canal when completed will be thirty one miles long. At present a large part of the main canal is fin ished and work is progressing rapidly on the IateraIs. By April of this year the ditches will be completed sufii- ciently to water 50. 900 acres. Next year the enterprise will be finished. re- claiming 300, 900 acres. About a mill lion dollars has thus far been spent on the project.
 MT. MaXson says that in the mat ter of the irrigation movement he is very grateful to the press of the coun- try. While some big papers have op- posed it more have favored it. and the power of the press has added more strength to the cause than any other one thing.
