Some time ago a magnetic phono- g-aph was invented. which the in- vcator hoped to use in connection win the telephone to receive and re- cori messages in the absence of the owner of the phone. The objection to this system was that person calling ur nnmher and receiving no re- spopseswi not inclined to deliver his mesrege ,J something so intangible as an urresponslye and apparently inani- mate machine at the other end of the wire. A new improvement is reported along rhis line, in which photograph IS porided to answer calls of tele- phones when the person called is out. The person before leaving will deliver message to the phonosraph stating when he will return. where he is go- ing or where lt may be called. and this the loDograph will automatically repeat tw'ce to each call. This it will do. no natter how many calls there may be.

LAND EXCITEMENT
 CAUSED BY WATER
DrilIers Prospecting for Miner al Tap Large Body of Water
 In Verde Valley

PRESCOTT. May 17.-DriIling to
 prospect a mineral vein with a very promising surface showing and strik- ing what is believed to be a great flow of artesian water is the exper- fence of the management of the Syca- more Mining and Milling company last week, as well as the cause of a land excitement in the Upper Verde valley. J. T. Scott. who arrived here yesterday from the Upper Verde, gives it as his opinion that the water How struck is artesian water and the land owners of the Verde valley are jubilant over the possibility of find ing artesian water all over the val ley.
 In common with several other resi- dents of the Verde valley, MT. Scott
 Is here looking up possible land loca- tions in the artesian belt Land that
 has been considered worthless is now eagerly sought and in short time all the available land in the valley which can be reclaimed will be home steaded and located by settlers conii- dent of reclaiming it with artesian
 water.
 Speaking of the water flow devel- oped by the Sycamore Mining and
 Milling company. MT. Scott says:
 At depth of 3S0 feet the water flow was struck. It gushes out of the well at intervals and appears to
 be highly charged with carbonic acid gas. This may be the cause of the ebbs and flows of the we'll. Some times the water will almost stop flow ing and then suddenly gush high in to the air. The flow is large enough to irrigate large tract of land.
 A peculiarity of the mine in which the flow is developed is that two men
 were overcome and killed in a shaft
 on the property by gas. The shaft is considered dangerous by miners on account of the gas. The presence of
 the carbonic acid gas in the water in
 clines those who have examined it to the opinion that this is the same
 character of gas that proved fatal on
 two occasions in the shaft.
 Carl Knuttson Is among the most
 surprised at the artesian water strike
 He is at loss to explain it, as he expected the drill to breaw into an ore
 body at any time. litle believing that
 he was about to open a gusher of bubbling water.
 Some believe that the water has
 curative powers. Tests will be made
 soon with view Of demonstrating
 this. Others say that the water may
 prove, saleable mineral water and find a ready sale in the drug and liquor markets
 Mir Scott will return to the Verde valley today. after perfecting ehtry
 upon very promising tract of unre- claimed land before United States
 Commissioner Moore.

YUMA PROJECT |S.
 DESCRIBED
Indian Reservation Will Be Opened During Coming
 Fall
THOUSANDS OF ACRES TO
 : BE MADE AVAILABLE

ia reply to the many inquiries made e .he Yuma Examiner for informa- toa cSIoerning the Yuma project, l tine ttr opening the Indian reserva- 1 ticn c-rcss the river. etc. and many otL'r sabjects of inquiry continually comins in the following information is i'lbiahod:
 Tho Yuma Indian reservation em- braces about l7.oo0 acres and will be open in September or October, 1909. Due notice will be published by the interior department.
 The land will be divided into farm units of from 20 to 30 acres. depend ing upon local conditions and the diff [ ference in the quality of the land. The price for the land with the water right included will be about $3s.00 per acre in ten yearly pay- ments Of S3.50 each: to this must be added about 15c per acre per year for maintaining and operating the canals. The homestead law will apply as to residence and cultivation. slightly modified by the reclamation law
 The method of distributing the land will probably be by a system of draw. ing. carried on in Washington, the ap- Islication being made by letter. All the details of this new method have not yet been published. but the chief feature in it is that a prospective set tier is not obliged to come to the To- cality unless he draws a farm. The soil is very fertile, being deep river loam.
 The land is in a natural state with trees and brush growing upon it. It is comparatively level. the general cost of clearing it and putting it into shape is about $25 per acre when the work is contracted
 The summer is hot for ninety days.
 There are no snow storms, nor bliz- zards in winter. no fogs and seldom frosts. no malaria, fever, nor sun stroke.
 A settler filing on these lands should have sufficient capital to main- tain himself for one year besides buy ing the necessary stcSk, machinery, implements and tools.
 The valley below Yuma has been in partial cultivation for several pears and has thrifty population with the best of schools and churches. The products of these farms are very di- versified and rartial list would GOV. CT the folowing:
 Oranges, lemons, grape fruit. olives. figs, plums. pears, peaches, cherries. apricots. apples, small fruits and Der ries, almonds, cantaloupes, sugar beets, alfalfa, grains of all kinds, and wide variety of vegetables.
 Patented lands in the valley are selling at from s40,oO0 to S20OOO Der acre. depending upon the improve ments on the land.
 The Mesa land. about 4O,O0O acres. lying. back of the valley and about seventy feet above will not receive water for year or more. It has been withdrawn from entry. but when the water is placed upon it. it will be an ideal locality for all kinds of citrus fruits as it is practically frostless.

ECHO OF HARPER FAILURE,

CINCINNATI, May IA five-mil- lion-dollar judgment against E. l.. liar per. whose failure to corner the wheat market resulted in the collapse of the Fidelity National bank of this city twenty years ago. was offered for sale this morning ix the ofiiees of local firm of lawyers. The judg- ment represented the last asset of the failed bank, being a receivers judgment covering the amount liar per owed the bank. The sale of the judgment was a mere formality, marking the final chapter of the great financial disaster which brought rui- nation to hundreds of people.
 The old Fidelity hank failure was "a spectacular affair. Harper was seek ing to get a corner on wheat. Through an unexpected turn of the market. Harper went to the wall, car rying hundreds of people down into the financial slough. When the cred itors. after months of fighting, se- cured the famous s5,000, 900 judgment against him, he went into one of the mountain counties of West Virginia and tried to go through bankruptcy. But he never succeeded in nullifying the huge judgment. and in the end he was obliged to serve several years in the penitentiary for using the funds of his bank to bolster up his specula- tions It has taken twenty years to wind up the affairs of the bank.
