TEMPE
THE BARcUs HORSE STOCK.
The Shoeing of Wild and Bad Fem
 pered Horses Made Easy.

Last week Blacksmith Thos Curnow received and installed in his shop d RarcuS horse stock. As the name i'm = plies. the stock is for the purpose of holding refractory horses or colts while being shod. In this country as well as any other it often becomes nec- essary for a blacksmith to shoe a horse that is either wild or naturally mean. and the process often results in dam age to the blacksmith and sometimes to the horse, for frequently the animal has to be thrown, and it is a common occurrence to nave the harses feet burned with the rope. The new ma chine does away with all possible dan ger to the animal and makes the act of shoeing a horse, no matter how wild or mean, a vefy simple matter, and one that is attended with no possible danger to either horse or man.
 The stock was purchased from the Western Metal company, of Los An geles. It was received here last week and at once set in position in Mir Cur now's shop. It consists of two heavy side pieces or bars whicl swing in such a manner that after the horse is tied to the front of the stock these bars are closed together on it. An

arrangement of canvas, similar to a belt, is then passed beneath the body of the animal and by a contrivance of pulleys and cranks the horse may be raised completely off its feet, pro- viding his objection to being shod de- mands sucn stringent action. On eith- CT bar is a lever with ratchet at tachment that can be moved in any di- rection. At the end of this lever is a padded clasp, so constructed that it will open to a width sufficient to catch the foot of the animal. It then closes holding the foot in an iron grasp, and the animal is entirely in the control of the blacksmith. Shortly after the ma chine was set up broncho was brought in for a trial. It was put in the stock, and, considering MT. Cur now's lack of experience with the stock, it worked to perfection, and he is much pleased with his purchase. Since then he has had occasion to use it a number of times on some very bad horses and every time it mas come up to all requirements.

GOLDEN REVENGE

How Things Were Evened up for an
 Arizona Ranchman.

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 5.-(Special Correspondence of The Republican)-ln the suit brought by G. E.. Porter in the superior court of this city against Dav- i'd Douglas over the possession of the estate of the late Mrs. Douglas-Porter, Judge Wilbur has decided in favor Of the defendant.
 This is the end of a long and TO- mantle series of relationships and events, begun in Arizona, transferred thence to the high seas, and culminat- ing at last in this city.
 Fifteen years ago Porter was an employe on the Arizona ranch of David Douglas. While there he and Mrs. Douglas fell in love- An elopement re- suited, the two fled to Los Angeles to- gether. Thus to give their union some

semblance of propriety. they embarked at San Pedro upon a sailing vessel. and there upon the high seas where no law is, save Gods law and the captains. they were married by the commander of the ship. Returning to Los Angeles. they lived here as man and wife for thirteen years. In that time Porter accumulated $10,OO0, which he placed in his wife's name. Two months ago the woman died. Douglas caE-e at once from Arizona and laid claim to her estate upon the ground that she was. still his wife at the time of her death. Porter was compelled to bring suit. In vain his lawyers protested that he had earned all the money him self. and had only transferred it to his wife's name as formality; also thas he had believed Douglas to have pro- cured a divorce long since. Judge Will bur held that nothing in the evidence gave a basis for this belief, and thus, by a strange freak ot fate-all that poetic justice could de- mand, the fortune that was the fruit of thirteen years endeavOr upon the
 part of Porter, passed to the man whose home he had ruined at the be- ginning of that period.
