PHOENIX VISITOR
 FOR WINTER SEASON
Charles A. Lincoln, a Relative of the
 Great War President.

Charles Abraham Lincoln. third cousin of former President Lincoln, from Fort Smith. Ark, and recently from Prescott. is visiting this valley and expects to locate here. at least for the winter. MT. Lincoln has been in the [. s. government secret ser vice for the last twenty years and is still so connected. He has done service in the following countries: Cuba and the Philippines before the war ten years in the South Ameri- can republics. China and Japan.
 Mir. Lincoln says Japan is about as hard a country in which to get any information as any foreign nation. The only way to get information there is to have a good memory and keep it there until you get a chance to send it to your government. This reminded him of an occurrence when he was stealing along near a Japan ese post and was stopped by the guard and searched. but nothing was found on his person. After being asked many questions he was not fur ther molested. In turn he asked the guard what that high tower wall was in the distance. He was told that was a fort, and no one was allowed to see it without permission from the head officers. so he gave the guard a cigar and they had a nice little talk. He told him about our government system and that he was only touring the country for pleasure and would very much like to see the fort. Max ing an appointment with the guard that evening he showed him a jolly good time. after which he got the good will of the Jap. who used his influence to get Mir. Lincoln permis-

sion to visit the fort, which. he said. was very valuable to the government He says there is a mile tunnel from the fort to the sea shore for escape.
 MT. Lincoln is a jeweler by trade and works at his trade in order to get acquainted with the country he spies. He also speaks four different lan- guages and looks like a man of Span ish descent. He is a very interesting man to talk to. MT. Lincoln has ta- ken temporary quarters at 1s West Van Buren street

The fountain has been spe- cially designed and constructed along sanitary lines, and cleanliness is its chief feature. All ice cream cans and other receptacles are of porcelain, fin ished in German silver. The fountain is known as 'Iceless." the circulation of waste ice water being so arranged as to cool all syrups and other ingre- dients. It is fitted for hot and cold water throughout. with a special com partment for sterilizing by boiling water each glass. spoon and dish i'm mediately after its use. Opposite the fountain and extending half the length Of the room are the candy. counters. manufactured according to Mir.

earth varying in depth from 6la feet at

explosion chamber. This chamber,
forming the inner end of the gallery is
of concrete, feet high, 616 feet long,

for testing measures Of preventing and

The flame produced by an explosion is
measured by matches placed along the
gallery at intervals of 40 inches. Loosely
corked bottles, filed with water, are
suspended bottom up about 35 feet from
the explosion chamber, and strings at
tached to the nearest shelves draw the
corks when the shelves are moved by an
explosion In this way the bottles are
emptied of water, samples of gas from
the explosion taking its place, ready for
chemical and other examination.
Even sun-baths are a cure-all to be used

specially near Berlin, it has boone the
habit of men of all ages to lie naked in
the sun on the banks of river for hours
at time, occasionally entering the
water, and often continuing the practice
daily. The advocates of this "nature
treatment" have acquired quite fanatical
viws of its efficacy. Professor Grawitz
has found however, that its effects may
be decidedly harmful, and that it not
only yields painful sunburn, but may
result in serious irrgularty of the
