When the World Was a Cube.

There was a time, centuries since.
of course, when the learned men of
the world really taught that the world
was square, not merely fat, but
that it was cube. The primitive ge-
ograpbers Of Egypt, Assyria and China
all taught that the world was a
square plane" evidence Of which may
be found on thousands of ancient mon
uments in the countries mentioned. as
well as in their ancient manuscripts
upon their inscribed tablets of clay and
other early literary remains. One of
the most curious discoveries ever made
In Central America concerning ToItec
beliefs, symbols. etc. is that they also
had similar idea concerning the form
of what we now speak of as the
globe" A writer on the discoveries
made among the monumental ruins of
that country says, They Cmeaning the
Peruvians, Toltecs and Quiches) be-
lieve the world to be a cube. suspended
from the heavens by cords of gold fas-
tened to each of its corners"

RUNNING UPSTAIRS.
10 Causes an Excessive and INJURIOUS
Strain on the System.

STRAIN on the system.
Every one knows that the ascent of
a staircase is more fatiguing than ordi-
nary walking In walking progression
is effected by a succession of lifts, in
clinatiOns and swings.
In starting the body is lifted, for ex-
ample, by the levers of the right foot
and is inclined forward. The left foot
being then raised from the ground. the
leg swings forward and is carried by
its momentum beyond the right foot.
The levers of the left foot now lift
the body again. and the right leg
swings forward, and so the body Oscil-
lateS along on a pair Of pendulums.
Short pendulums vibrate more quickly
than long ones, and therefore short
legged people step quicker than long
legged people. though with no more
sense of eXertion.
In going upstairs the mechanism of
progression Is of course the same, but
the lifting action, which is the real
force consuming part of the process, Is
now greatly increased.
Instead of being just sufficient to adj
NIT of the free swing of the pendulum
the body up at each step a distance
equal to the height of the stair.
Running upstairs is thus an excess
i've strain upon the constitution, but
where does this strain fall? The levers
of motion are moved Immediately by
the muscles, but the muscles cannot
act of themselves.
Their contractionS and relaXatiOns
take place only under stimulus. They
are all connected by lines Of force call
ed nerves, with the nervous centers,
and these are the sources of muscular
stimulation.
Not that the nerve force of the brain
IS converted into the mechanical move
ment Of progression, but nerve force is
constantly drawn upon TO maintain
the action of the muscles, and this
draft is always greatest where there Is
a sense of exertiOn
When bodily vigOr is high, the evil
result Of running upstairs may not be
decidedly felt, but where there is de-
bility of any of the processes this
strain cannot fail to tell in some form
or other with injurious effect.-St.
Louis Republic.

Another Reservation
 Is Proclaimed

President Roosevelt has issued a proclamation creating a reservation sixty feet in width along the north border oi Mexico, including the state of California and the territories oi Arizona and New Mexico. The pur- pose of this move is declared in the proclamation to be the suppression of smuggling across the international line. Private interests will! be pro- tected on the reservation and such portion of it as is needed for roads will be reserved from the operation Of orders.
 Since the abolition of the old "Zo- ua Libre" or free zone between Mexico and the United States, it has been found increasingly difficult to prevent smuggling across the boundary, hence the proclamation.

The Apache Kid'
 Slain Once Again

According to thef flowing dispatch the Apache Kid" has been finally killed. This bloodthirsty redskin has been reported . good Indian" over eight or ten years since, but if there is any doubt of his demise, the follow- ing story should certainly dispell it and all hands breathe easier:
 CHICAGO, May 25.-The skull of the Apache Kid, the most notorious out law in the southwest. murderer thirty times over horse thief, raider and the terror of Arizona and New Mexico for the last twenty years. with govern ment price of s9 900 on bis head and a reputation ths. extended from the Black Hills to the Mexican territory, lay today on e table in a doctor office in Chicago.
 Though Apache Kid met his death last September, being shot down in dramatic last stand in the foothills of the Sierra Madre mountains. his fate was kept secret until today. The bull let which ended his life was fired by one of a party of prominent Chica- gcans.
 For legal reasons the men who ran down the desperado and ended his notorious career have never claimed the reward. The skull will be pre- sented by them to the Skull and Bones secretsociety of Yale.

THURSDAY, MAY B. .

Court opened this morning at S:3O and the battle in the Williams case was renewed.
 Tine first witness called this morn ing was Tex Campbell. He was asked by the prosecution for further testi- mony in regard U his conversations tha. were had with Williams, and went over much of the same ground previously reviewed.
 He also stated his connection with securing Buster to testify, claiming to have done so at the instance Of Will Hams. The witness was subjected to severe cross examination by Ives. He admitted being granted immunity from prosecution by Attorney Kibbey for the Territory. A conversation wa: recalled in which witness was asked Il Buster was to perjure himself, and he replied negatively. Witness explained this by saying he had been cautioned by Williams to be guarded in his re- marks. The cross examination was unsparing and very severe. Buster was recalled and went over much of the same ground previously testified and stated that $75 was to be paid him.
 Jones was called to the stand but was not permitted to testify, obiec- tions by the defense being sustained or legal grounds.
 One more witness was expected by the prosecution but he failed to ar rive on the Bisbee train. The pros- ecution closed, whereupor the defense asked that the jury be excused where upon q motion was made that yer dict of not guilty be instructed upon three grounds, which briefly were Ist that DO testimony was shown that Buster did perjure himself; 2nd that no evidence was shown thatdefepdant was directly implicated in charge pre- ferred and 3rd that evidence does not show that defendant procured Buste' to commit perjury.

No Discrimination
 In Freight Rates

Furthe delving into the rates charged by the FL Paso X Southwest ern railroad indicates that the mer- chants of Bisbee and vicinity have much to complain of. The Miner says that the rates are excessive on probably every class of freight. The maximum freight rate which a rail- road can charge in this territory, &C., cording to the territorial law, is l5 ceats per ton per mile. The tariff is mighty close to the law in most cases as in the instance of the rate from Fl Pase to Bisbee or the long haul, the tariff is fourteen and seven-tenths cents per ton per mile. In the case of the rate from Douglas to Naco the railroad rate is higher than the statutes permit. The distance be. tween these two points is. according to the time tables, 26 miles, and the freight rate is 24 cents per hundred,
 which figures about eighteen and one half cents per ton per mile It would seem that no special class
 of merchandise has been discriminat- ed against in the railroad tariff, but
 they have all been soaked" alike. Take furniture for instance. The rate on furniture from Chicago Is 9S cents per hundred to Fl Paso and from that point to Bisbee the rate
 sl.39 per hundred.
 On canned goods the rate from New
 York to Fl Paso is Fl cents per hun dred and the rate on the same goods from Fl Paso to Bisbee is $l0S per hundred
 The rate on b:ick from Tufa sta ton to Douglas, a distance of l2 miles, is 50 cents per ton. A short time ago tine railroad was asked for rate on
 brick from Mace to Bisbee, spproxi- mately the same distance and the best it would do was S1 per ton. Might it not be appropos to ask at this time: Why this discrimination?

TUESDAY, MAY 7!

At the opening of the district court this morning the first move made Tn the case Of the Territory vs. S. k, Williams was a motion made hy Dis .rict Attorney Shelley that the name of E. 5 Clark be entered as one of the attorneys for the prosecution. The motion was entered upon the nm utes and the attorney general at once began to take an active part m the prosecution, as WAS seen a few min utes later when he opposed a move on ,he part of the defense in regard to the taiismen that were returned by the eherlff on the special vepire of 10 that wac made this morning. The yenire showed the following names: John Perkins, Charles MOnmonIer, lIB Stone, B Myer, John Lemons, PA Lofgren, c F Moss, Nels Peter son, A R Musgrave, A Marvin, John sNevins, Levi Loftgren, G R Van Dieter, Jack Puckett, w A Ro- | berts.
 A heated discussion brought out the intimstion that the prosecution was to be forestalled from securing tailis- men on the panel from sections be- lieved to be preiudiced. The prose- cution held that the qualification of the jurymsn could not De questioned I without due examination. Before adjournment to the afternoon hour an order was issued for an additional venire of 10 jurymen, and all subje;t- ed to examination.
 When court convened at l o'clock the return Of the special venire of ten iuro-s showed the following:
 George Black Joe Kendall
 wm LutIey A H Emanue! Thos York l. A Smith
 CD Gage John Rock
 C B Landers Henry Flynn
 From all appearances the case promises to he one of sensational in terest. Witt such an array of legal talent on either side the case will be stubborDly fought. Tbe court room was crowded with spectators and the big legal battle is watched with keen interest.

In the opinion of Judge Harper the 34th district cour. at Fl Paso a common table fork is not a deadly weapon.
