 Stock Inspector A. J. Diamond has resigned his position with the Sanitary Board. It is probable that Thos. Frier will be appointed in his stead.
 c. H. Schulz came in Wednesday over land from Cordes. He says the country from Loy's ranch to Flagstaff was prefect food from melting snows.
 Over 1000 head of injured and dead sheep can be picked up. be- tween Cordes and Dewey caused by dipping in overloaded dips; sheep afterwards being subject to chill.
 The cowboys are getting their trappings together for the great roundup on the Puerco. They say they will begin business soon after the fifteenth of the month.
 In a sheep searing contest at Cordes. April 27, twenty-two men are credited with having shorn 1880 sheep in nine hours. One of the men E. s. Bartlett. sheared 3ll sheep.-Courier.
 Chas. H. Schulz in speaking of the regulation requiring dipping of sheep at 1l0 degrees, immediate ly after shearing has resulted in the loss of at least sl00,000 worth of sheep by death and injury dur ing the past winter in the vicinity of Cordes alone.
 The weather suddenly turned cold Saturday and the result is that many young lambs a.e dead in the mountains. The lambs that were a couple of days old and older seem to have withstood the cold storms fairly well.-Hol- brook Argus.
 The Arizona Cattle company has purchased l76 head of cattle from Sears & Cavn ,ss. The cattle were just gathered off the Verde range and were in exceptionally fine con dition. They were two and three year old steers and made the best bunch that has been brought in yet this spring. They were branded Tuesday and have been placed on pasture here. Republican.
 H. H. Score returned Wednes- day from an inspection of his sheep camps. He is through with the lambing and reports an aver age increase of a little over one hundred per cent. This is consid- cred very good for lambing in the mountains. He says his sheep are fat and that he will have the finest clip of wool in the market this season.
 c. c. Hutchinson in speaking of conditions south says that owing to cold weather after each rain during the past winter. feed was not as good as usual. consequently not many bands of sheep will return to the mountains this spring with much over seventy-five per cent of lambs. Last year the average number of lambs run as high as 90 and 100 per cent. The recent heavy storm reached as far south as Congress Junction. below that place it only amounted to light shower.

THE INFINITE

We have all been struck with won
der at the achievements in wireless
telegrarhy. There is something I'M
canny about 1t. A ship Is laboring In a
storm hundreds of miles away from
shore, or its machinery is disabled
and it is lying practically helpless on
the waters, when to the nearest port
comes a message from that ship, tell
ing OF its situation, calling for help OF
saying that the ship is riding the storm
,splendidly and that it will be In port
on a certain day. That links man al
most with infnity. 1t shows such a
triumph Of mind over matter as the
world never saw before; and still,
wireless telegraphy; We take it, is as
yet but a practically unknown science,
for some men in Omaha have decided
that so potent an egent ought to be
more practical in its presentations;
and so one man there, one DR.. Fred
erick Millener, has built a three-ton
motor and he runs 1t by wireless back.
wards and forwards, makes it haul eight
or nine tons and obey him as a steam
engine does the engineer. by a touch
of the button. He man.pulates 1t a
will. The possibilities of such an in.
vention are amazing. 1t does not re-
Quire any track; 1t does not require
any surveyed road. The machine Ia
built, the man in charge touches the
button and starts on across the desert
propelled by a power which Is measure.

the control of man as much as was

power and executing certain mems
Wills with a swiftness incalculable.
At ono the thought comes to q person,
will not this, after all, be the solving
Of the navigation OF the air? The great
problem now Is to support an airship
and at the same time make 1t 50 that
it can carry the weight Of an engine
and a gasoline tank. II the airship
can be 80 regulated that it can call
on the wireless for its power, why SO
soon as science is understood, all "a
man will have t. do will be to have
a balloon big enough to overcome the
weight OF his OWE body; then enlist
the wireless to his help and he goes to
see his girl two hundred miles away,
spends the evening with her until a
quarter to eight (Which is two a. n.y.
end gets back in time to do his regu
lar days work the next day.
Men have performed great feats;
there have been great generals; there
have been great statesmen; men have
written lovely things which are an
enchantment to read; but the great
triumph of man is that he can send
out into the viewless air a viewless
message which will carry his thoughts
wherever he wills and bring back to
him the thoughts Of others. But this
last achievement takes away all that
airy, intangible something and comes
down to practical life and pushes ma
chinery that carries ore or passengers
freight of any kind and makes 1t
come and go at his bidding. That old
chap, who wrote that mar Is but a lit
tie lower than the angels, either
wrought better than he knew or he
was a brighter man than we ever gave
him credit for being.
Science is very generous to men.

 Into a State Of Riot.

Philadelphia. Jan. 24.-The annual indoor track meet Of Company I, First Regiment, Pennsylvania National Guard held tonight, ended in a riot that was precipitated by an attack made by Melvin Sheppard of th-Irish American Athletic Club of New York upon Guy Haskins of the University of Pennsylvania in the course of the 1000 yard match. Haskins the intercol- legiate half mile and mile champion defeated Sheppard recently. Tonight the men completed six laps when Has kins made an effort to pass Sheppard whom he jostled at one of the turns. When Haskins started to go by the New York runner. the latter seized him and deliberately threw him to the floor. Haskins' friends rushed at Shep- pard and punched and kicked him The friends of Sheppard ran in and it required a dozen policemen to restore order The referee disqualified Shep- pard and awarded the race to Haskins. Sheppard said afterward that his act was that of tired and irritated mar and that he regretted his conduct.

PRISONER DELIVERED
 FROM STRONG FORTRESS
An Incident Said to Be Connected With the Recent Portuguese Con- spiracy.

London, Jan. PA dispatch has been received from Lisbon saying that Dr Farmano Lopez. who was connect ed with the recent conspiracy to blow up Premier Franco and others with bombs. made a daring escape from San Julia prison. d strong fortress at the smouth of the Tagus river. Be- cause of the high social position of Lopez, permission was given a party of friends to visit him in prison. This party went to the fortress in motor car and as the automobile drew up in front of the prison terrific e&plo- sion was heard. The commander of the prison ordered the party to be de- tained and guards were placed around the fortress. A further examination was made but no explanation of the explosion could be found. The visi- tors were then allowed to depart in their motor car
 It was learned later that during the confusion following the explosion some one tossed keys to Lopez through the grating of his window cell. With these he unlocked the door and joined his friends. He is supposed to have gone away in the motor car disguised with heavy trimmed motor glasses and a big coat The entire staff of the fortress including the commander. has been ar rested on suspicion of accepting a bribe to permit the escape of the pris- oncr. A reward has been offered for the arrest of Lopez.

As pr. Wiley of the Bureau of Chem istry Explains to the House Com mittee.

Washington, Jan. 24-Dr. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry of the departmenx of agriculture today re- ported to the house committee the re- suit of experiments conducted by the bureau to determine the poisonous eff feet on the human system of drugs contained in food stuffs. He said he was satisfied that the term of Amer ican life would be heightened if the use Of such drugs in foods were wholly discontinued. He said he was con- vinced that kidney disease so prevalent among Americans was partly the re- suit of the constant introduction into the system Of such preservative sub stances as benzionate of soda carried in foods. Discussing sulphur dioxide and it's injurious effects he told the committee of a discovery just made by him that a salt solution is a perfect substitute for sulphur in the whitening and drying of fruit.
