To Build Artificial Island.

The war department. has determined
upon plans for the building Of an arti-
hcial island at tue entrance to Chesa-
pcake bay. This island will be built up
from submerged ledge and will be
made sufficiently large to contain. ba-
sides a battery to command the ap-
proach to the bays entrance. quarters
and barracks for men and a parade
ground for drill. together with suita-
bic storehousss for provisions and am
mnnition which would be required for
protracted period. A part of tho
programme is the construction of an
artificial harbor to accommodate the
supply of boats and submarines. the
latter TO form an adjunct of the coast

Coal Under Water.

Some years ago II feet OF British .-oI,
liers was sunk during storm in an
English harhor and remained under
water for five years before being
salyed and brought 10 the surface, says
the Scientific American. An examinn-
ton OF the coal showed that It had
kept its value for steam purposes. and
this leo to some experiments by the
naval authorities which settled beyond
all doubt that conl stored under water
did not deteriorate as when stored in
the air. Taking heed OF this copserv-
ing power OF water, the Western Flee
trio company is building flooded coal
pits at its plant at Hawthorne, Ill. The
excavation is 800 by 30 feet and II feet
deep. built of concrete and divided into
twelve pits. The coal is dropped Ill
recily from the cars, which pass over
the pits, and the fuel is removed when
desired by means of a steam shovel.

MODERN SURGERY.
5ome of Tho Marvellous Feats II Has
Accomplished.

Some Of tho Marvellous Feats II Has
Accomplished.
BY a marvellous piece OF surgery
Miss Dot Stephens of London music
hall fame Will be able to appear on the
stage again In spite of the fact that In
October last she had both her feet cut
of through falling out OF Il train. At
cost of $1,000 she Inns been fitted
with pair OF artificial feet which are
not only so wonderfully made MS to
entirely escape detection, but which
enable Miss Stephens to walk couple
of miles without fatigue and without
the aid OF n stick.
This remarkable surgical feat re-
calls the frequent remark. Everything
Is possible in surgery nowadays"
A prisoner had severed his wlndpipe
with raZor. Thanks, however, to n
remarkable piece OF surgery OH the
part OF two doctors, tho wound was
stitched up and the mans life saved.
Even this astounding feat. however,
has been surpassed. Two years ago n
tailor was stabbed through the heart
while quarrellng over game OF cards.
He arrived at the hospital In a state OF
collapse. and the doctors decided that
tho only chance OF saving his life was
10 stitch up tho wound in the heart
The chest had TO be opened, three ribs
cut and part OF the breastbone re-
moved before tho vital organ could be
reached, after which three stitches
were put in the heart Artificial respi-
ration was then resortod TO-, and two
months later the tailor was discharged
from the hospital az cured, although
he was obliged 70 wear shield of
black leather and aluminium over his
chest TO prevent any injury to the
wound.
Apart, however. from the fact OF
stitching up wounded hearts, 1t Will
probably astonIsh many people to learn
that Ii is by no means rare occur
renee for surgeons TO make hearts beat
again after they have apparently stop
ped An operation for cancer was be-
ing performed. and under tho influence
OF the annesthetic the patients heart
suddenly ceased TO beat. In nm instant
w" ""'bSN"" MANU- was lhiust iHSlue
the body, and he commenced pinching
the heart, which began TO beat again,
thus saving the patients life.

ABEYTA AND HIS
NEIGiiBOK'S FENCE AGAIN

Carmel Abeyta and his wife, both Of
old Albuquerque, were arrested yes
terday on warrants charging them
with wilful destruction OF property.
And thereby hangs a tale of a neigh
borhood difference of opinion that has
into considerable OF a law suit.
The law evidently doesn't hold much
terror for Abeyta, for he hasn't been
paying much attention TO certain por-
tons OF 1t, according to the persons
swearing TO the warrants. Recently
Abcyta and his wife were arrested
charged with destroying a fence upon
land owned bv F%lorencio Garcia.
When the case came to trial before
Justice of the Peace Romero in Old

against the defendants. They app
pealed to the district court, where
Judge Abbott sustained the decision of
the Justice court and ordered the fine
and Judgment confirmed. After some
time the defendants filed a motion 10
set aside the judgment, but Wednes-
day afternoon this motion was oyer-
by Judge Abbott.
Wednesday night, the Abeytas, 1t IS
charged. wandered out and tore down
the Garcia fence all over again. Theil
arrest followed. The case was TO ave
been heard yesterday afternoon but
went over until this morning.

The principal discussion at the meet
ing WAS the attitude of the associa-
ton toward the forest reserve policy
Of the government. The members are
heartily in favor of the principle be-
hind the forestry policy, yet some of
them feel hat they have not been
fairly treated in the allotment Of the
range and I'm grazing charges, as COM
pared with the sheep and cattlemen.
Strong resolutions were adopted and
IA committee appointed to take up the
matter with the forestry service Mr..
J. w Glosshenner, an experienced
forest official made a strong address
showing that with proper handling
and sufficient range that goats were
really a benefit instead Of a detriment
to any reserve. A resolution was
adopted to the effect that the execu-
tive committee be empowered to open
negotiations with the fair association
in Albuquerque. looking 70 an annual
exhibit of Angora goats at the terri
torial fair. 1t Is probable that the
next annual meeting Will be held in
Albuquerque during the 1905 fair.
The following members were named
as the officers and executive commit
tee:
w. A. Heather. Silver City, presl-
dent.
y, c. Taylor, Lake Valley, first vice
president.
j. W. G~losshenner, Silver City. Sec
ond vice president.
w. c. Silsby, Leopold, third vice
president.
NJ. L. Bugbee, Silver City, assistant
secretary.
r. Ritter, Red Rock. f. S. Edwards,
Santa Rita A F. Kerr, Silver City,
being the additional members of the
executive committee.
The aim of this organization Is the
broad one Of promoting the interests
Of the industry and there Is no doubt
the association will do much to
advance Angora goat raising in New
Mexico. The secretary of the asocia-
ton would like 10 hear from all goat
in the territory in the aim OF
widening the operations Of the organi-
lation which Is TO be in no sense a To-
sal one but aimed to reach the entire
territory. There are now about co.
goats in Grant county and fifty
men are engaged i'm the industry.
which is producing in this county
about 10000 pounds of mohair each
