The Bisbee Miner says: "Lack of men who are accustomed to working a, dizzy he gnts has caused J Grinnel to stop work on the lofty Copper Queen stack for ten days.
 This is chance tn get up in the world which comparatively few men care to enb ace. Men there are in plenty who go up in the air on the slightest provocation, but those who can mount tigh hor and stay there with any show of perm nent equili- "rium are so exceptional that MT Grionell had to send to the far etfete east for company.
 'Grinnell and his limited force have put mp false work to a height of 1SC f. ct. Al this aItrude th.y discovered hat they were lonesome and that tn. timbers were heavy and provokingly ,vksard. therefore, they climbed town to a safer pace and sent for help.
 When completed this stack H-ill te me of the largest anJ loftiest in tht world It will be seventv-five feet in ci-cumfer, nee and 250 feet high.
 "from it sul ,,hurous fumes are waited so high as to preclude the pos sibility of becoming a nuisance.
 "A sufficient force of men to en- tinue the work will arrive within tel days, when operations will be resula. ed. Those coming are topnotchers in high calling"

For hydrophobia
 Treatment
The Phoenix Enterprise says:

The Phoenix Enterprise says:
 "There is som talk of a-krDg the legislature to create a hydrophobia Hnnex to the territoria' insane asy lnm It is stated that quite s uumber oi people have been bitten in Arizona by hydrophobia skunks during the las year, and that they have pent large amounts while visiting the Pasteur institute at Chicago. Of course ii would be out of reason to think of constructing c large building for this purpose, but the gentlemen who are advancing the idea have put them selves 10 the trouble of corresponding with the PasteHr annex to the insane asylum at Austin. Texas. From the rel lies, it is learned that the Texas Legislature, two years ago, set apar B, 900 for the construction of 8 build ing and the treatment of hydrophobia. he physician in control states that Sl ,400 of this money has been return cd ! to the state treasury and that the in. stitution is seli-supporting. The med icine is manufactured at the asylum and the trea' 'ment is @ pronounced success. Patients, il they aie poor, are trea d free. but if they are fiuan- cially abe to pay, are charged for tn treatment and their osrd. Chicago IS many milos away from Arizona. anC I the expense of going there for treat ment is nsncial ruin to poor maI who has himself suffered, or has seer one of his children bitten; hence al men who live out doors, or who are |, places where they may be bitten b. -kunks, would welcome an additions tax for this lrpose. In fact, peopl
