Lynx Attacks 4 Boy.

Last Monday morning, a wild ami nal attacked Bert Smithson, a small boy, at Woodruff and came near killing him. His screams attracted the attention of some folks near by, who scared the animal of, but the fog was so dense they were unable to tell what it was. A hunting party was soon organized and Will Dewitt killed the animal, which proved to be d large lynx, measuring three feet from top to bottom. .-Holbrook Argus.

Governor Kibbey sent a message to the house regarding the joint state hood bill in congress, and asked that the legislature enact law directing the calling of special election at (which the people of this territory may emphatically, decisively, deiantly and conclusively convey to congress the sentiment of the people of Arizona upon that subject so that the question of our wishes can never again arise |" It would seem that au election in which the sentiment was strongly ex- pressed against joint statehood would likely produce the opposite result which is intended, that it would result in congress cutting out the privilege of Arizona voting on the issue at the only time it could be effective, and it might be well to go little slow on the proposition for the present.

No town will become good busi ness center so long as its business men rely on few merchants to make the effort to bring trade to town. Too often the men in few lines of trade are about the only ones that reach out after custom. Other merchants wait until these men induce the people to come to town and content themselves with trade that naturally drifts to their place. A public spirited man should ask himself if he is doing his part to attract people to come to town to trade in helping the entire business . community, and no town is success unless all lines are working to extend the trade as far as possible and trying to bring a larger territory in the cir cle in which the town is the business center.

THE PRINCE OF BUFFERS.
His Resourcefulness Saved His Mis-
tress in an Awkward
Situation.

The late Thomas Coldwell, the inventor
Of the lawn mower, was great admirer
of witty and alert persons.
At dinner in New York Mr.. Coldwell
said OF famous millionaire:
This man, through hard luck, once
had to work as a butler. He made an ex-
cellent butler. Let me give you an in
stance of the sort of work he did
His mistress was giving dinner party
of Il covers on a certain evening. One
of the courses consisted of scalloped oy-
sters il silver shells. The set of silver
shells was broken-there were only H.
The mistress, therefore, told the butler
that she would not eat any oysters, and
thus there would be just enough to go
around.
THE butler, when the oyster course
came, placed before the lady one of the
shells. To his horror, she did not de-
cline it. Calmly she let it rest before
her. If she started to eat it, one guest
would be short of oysters. What was
the matter with her, anyhow?
The butler watched her nervously. She
took up her fork. She was actually about
to plunge it into the dainty she'll. Then
the man, ever alert and ready, flew to her
side and bent over her respectfully:
Pardon me, madam, he murmured

Kansan Think He Was Back

A Kansan crossing the Atlantic in rough

except the captain, relates the Kansas
City journal.
"Go below there" the captain shouted
The passenger looked around to see
whom he was talking to.

he saw there was no one else in sight.
"Of course | do; go below" and the
captaine came alongside.
''Well, guess not" protested the Kan
san. "I'm up here to see how one of
your mountain-high waves and terrific
gales compare with what we have in Kan
sas in the way of cyclones. This amt a
patch to what I've seen out our way"
A big wave broke over the deck, sweep
ing the Kansan aft. They picked him up
with broken leg, twisted shoulder, a
sprained wrist. and his face looked as if
it had been dragged backward through
a briar patch. When he came to he saw

M. Caverau, of France, has discoy-
cred that tho eggs OF insects contain

A table of pulse-beats at tue differ
ent stations on Pixies Peak UP to

Clayton in 1901. The atmospheric

meteorologist, who finds very regu-
lar increase of one heartbeat per min
ute for each third of an inch decrease
in pressure.
The recent discovery that alloys not
containing iron can be made as mag
netic as iron has suggested the new
theory that magnetism depends upon
the grouping of the molecules. When
the special magnetic structure is made
better known, it is hoped to improve

for them an alloy Of great power, thus
Tightening the moving parts in cleo
trical machines.

burns without exploding. 1t has the
further advantages of being iasensible
to friction, shock or conclusion, while
it is not injured by wetting or by
freezing.
