Luthur King of Roseburg was in
the city the first of the week looking
for a suitable lot here in Toledo on
which to build and locate. Mr..
King was bitten by rattle snake
on the ankle fifteen years ago.
Three years ago that foot died.
Each year new spot comes on Mr..
Kings foot, just the same as
rattle snake gets a new rattle each
year, until now Mr.. King has fifteen
spots on his foot. During the
month of August Mr.. King goes to
sleep and sleeps for month without
eating or drinking, just the same as
a snake does. Mr.. King says his
foot has never caused him any pain,
but since it has died he can not
walk on it.
The Newport Signal seems very
sore at Congressman Hawley for his

But, it may relieve this feeling to

 CAUSED BY
 SILK DRESS
w. T. Owen and Roy Lockie
 Severely Burned By Gasoline
 Fire Department Prevents
 ConfIagration

A gasoline explosion, presumably caused by an electric spark generated by the folds of a silk dress. yesterday resulted in the painful burning of the face and hands of W T. Owen. until recently a well known Bisbee news paper reporter, now of the tailoring firm of owen & Mahen and Roy Lockie Of the Lockie lodging house. Owen is in the c. & A. hospital, while Lcck.e Is at his home. While both are painfully burned they are not in danger. The blaze threatened the de- structlon of the Lockie house. but was quickly placed under control by the ire department, which made a quick run
 Owen and 11oclie were back of the LocEie residence. which Is also a rooming house. at the tme of the ac- cident. Owen way twenty feet dis tant from Locke, who was washing a silk skirt in tub of gasoline Neither was smoking and there was no fire near. Suddenly Lockic called out that he was afre, and Owen turned and saw his friends head and arms enveloped in a mass Of flames He ,molhened the flames with ais own body as he did rot have his coat. In doing so. however, he set lire to his own clothing. WitA much presence of mind ho grabbed up an old quilt and smothcred the flames. He then wen, for a doctor both for himself and Loc,Iic.
 Meantime fire alarm had been turned in The department was on the scene very quickly and had the flames under control. when an excited bystander turned over a can of gaso- line and the fro started anew. Sey- eral Spectators were slightly burned before they could make their escape.
 Medical aid was Immediately given both the men after their injury and shortly aftefward their sufferings, which were intense for a time, were relieved. Lockie's outer skin is tin ribbons, while ovens face is the most severely burned part of his anat- cmy. The physicians stated last night that they thought both patients would recover with practically no scars from their experience.
 It is well known that silk is Q good conductor Of eIectric.ty and that sew eral folds Of it. if rubbed together vi0- lentlY or rapidly, will cause electrical sparks. G.ockie also states that ne has often noted that his body has more electricity than most people. as lo has often proved by experimenting on himself The theory has therefore Naau adv7pced. with some degree Of reason. that the explosion yesterday was caused by m electric spark.

C. 8L Ingersou of New York. 8 rail- road engineer, and ?. Wallich, a banker from Berlin, are in the camp visiting the mines and looking at the southwest in general. They gill go from here to the western coast of the United States and from there to Can ada. From there Ingersol VII re- turn to New York, while Wallich will make . trip through South America, and thence return to. Germany. The latter is studying the banking and general business methods of the United States, and was busy taking notes in German when approached by a reporter for The Review. He speaks almost perfeit English.
 IngersoIl las travelled in Europe, and both stated that Bisbee. if one lid not stop to notice details, looked more like some of the Italian or Swiss towns than it did like an American town. ~It is easy to see that there Is money in circulation here" said Inger- soH, which may be a surprise to some of the Bisbeeites who think times are hard enough
 Both men speak highly of Bisbee. stating. in fact, that they liked it from 9 business standpoint better than any other place they had visited since leaving New York Ingersoll and Wanick will leave here today for Benson in a motor car, taking that method of transportation in order to see the country.

ARIZONA SNOW
 RECORD FOR FEB.
Depth and Precipitation in Ex- cess of Normal Which
 Means Ample Water

The snowfall for February. 1909, while not differing greatly in the number and frequency of snow storms from those of January, 1908, wss in excess of the normal. At the 5000 foot level the precipitation was mostly in the form of snow, aver aging about 10 inches in depth. In the canyons and fgulches the shifting winds have caused large drifts of considerable depth. Between the 5000 foot and 14.0oo foot levels the -saow Is compact and well settled, which Is favorable for late melting The snow storm of the 2ist was of wide extent. spreading far south ward into northern Maricopa, Giia. Graham, Coehise and eastern Pinai eounties. depositing some 20 to 60 fnche sof snow on the higher levels. The snowfall in the uTfyer Gila and upper Salt watersheds during the pres ent winter. to and including the goth, has been comparatively light. The heavy snow of the 21st and 22nd gives assurance of a normal flow in the streams for the coming season. Tn the Little Colorado drainage system the flow is expected to be above the normal during the next two months. Steady flows were maintained in the Verde. the lower Salt and lower Gila rivers during the month, resulting from the melting snows at the lower levels
 The excess in the average depth Of snowfall in the mountains, for Feb ruary. 1909. as eomBared with that Of February. s90S. is as follows: in the Salt aud Verde watersheds. 4S inches; upper Gjla watershed, 80 inches; lower Gila watershed, co inches; Agua Fria and Hassayampa watershed, 1.6. inches; Little Colo radO watershed. 1S.5 inches.
 The average depth Of snow in the valleys and the mountains at the end of the month. was about as follows: Tn the Salt and Verde area. in val leys or inch, ia mountains 1.Js in ches; Giia area in valleys. 0.5 iucb in mountains g.5 inches; Agua Fria and Hasssyampa area in valleys 0.G inch. in mountains 4.7 inches: Little Colorado area, in valleys 3,4 inches; in mountains 32.0 inches.

Mayor Neale added that they could get possession in two weeks, and tbat after they got possession so ss to continue the road to enable the street car to reach that part of the city they would try to worry along about the rest Of the lawsuit.

THE FOREMAN WHO
 FIRED HIM
Mexican vacquero Drags En-
 ptoyer Over Cactus Field Is Beaten and Fined For His
 Murderous Attack

To be dragged over a cactus-coverea piece of landscape for a distance of several feet was the humiliating ex- perience of the foreman of the War ren ranch Thursday afternoon. To make the episode more aggravating, a Mexican yacquero did the hauling.
 As soon as the foreman could free himself Of the rope and regain his equilibrium he bounced upon the Mexican and gave him beating that was most severe. Then he took 8 rope and hog-tied the offender. Yes terday the foreman dragged his as- sailant into Bisbee and had him ar raigned before Justice High on the charge of assault and battery.
 Darigue Padres was the name of the defendant, and Constable l.. R. Bailey of Lowell acted as his accuser, the ranch foreman feeling too humil-
 ated to appear and give his name.
 ''The prisoner was fired by the fore man of the ranch yesterday" sad the officer. iThis caused him to be of tended to . murderous degree. Jump ing on his COW pony he took his laFiat, swung it and lassooed the foreman. Tying the end of the rope around the ilorn of his saddle, he started his horse across country on a jump. The foreman was an unavoidable part of i the procession over the cactus-cover- cd landscape for awhile. but as soon as he could extricate himself from the meshes of the lariat he jumped up, and, overriding fIi5 eaptoT, gave him a good beating.
 What have yon got to say?" asked Judge High.
