PROMISE WIRELESS SYSTEMS FOR
 ARIZONA
To Be Installed in Phoenix Within the Next Few
 Months

Within three or four weeks a com. pany will be formed to install a Col lins wireless telephone system in every city and town in Arizona. The first city to have such system will be Phoenix, says the Gazette.
 John Phelps, a representative of the Collins Wireless Telephone company, has been in the city for several days. Tom Mooney has taken the local and territorial agency for the company and will form the sub-corporatiOns.
 Two wireless telephones have already been installed for exhibition purposes in different rooms of the Lewis build ing, over the Arizona Mercantile com psny. This morning representative of the Gazette talked for five minutes with Mir. Phelps through the wireless phone. Every word came clearly and distinctly.
 The instruments are surprisingly sim pie. There is nothing cumbersome about
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1909-11-28

them and they can be made so small that they can be carried in the pocket, The small phones work as well as the large ones, though they do not carry as far.
 The wireless telephone has carried the human voice from Buffalo to New York city, while it is in daily use be- tween Newark and Philadelphia.
 Before making arrangements for the introduction of the wireless, telephone commercially, the Collins people con ducted series of exhaustive tests in their laboratory which is located in Newark, New Jersey. The laboratory tests were followed by demonstrations between Newark and New York, a dis tanee of twelve miles, and Philadelphia and New York, distance of eighty seven miles. Since then they have had long talks between many large cities of the United States. Recently sue cessful tests have been made at the Seattle exposition, which have demon strated that the Collins phone will, within few short months, be carrying the human voice without wires from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The Col lins Wireless company has recently re- eeived the gold medals at the Seattle exposition for everything connected with wireless telephony.
 The wireless telephone was for the first time thrown open to the public at the electrical show held in the Mad. ison Square gardens, New York. Dur, ing the progress of the exposition, over eleven thousand people talked over the wireless telephone.
 Mir. Phelps says that all over the country wire phones are giving way to the wireless. At the present time a system is being installed in Los Ange. les and the directory will be out by the first of the year.
 It is Mir. Phelps prediction that the wireless phone will be in common use here in Phoenix within six months Af- ter that it will rapidly spread to every town and mining camp in the territory.
 Everyone is invited to sail at room 6, Lewis building, and test the Collins phone. A. demonstratOr is constantly on hand.

ward laws as far-reaching as those now on the statute books of Alabama. The election, in other words, is going to prove a big boost to one of the sides in the temperance controversy, and the fight was made with a thorough under standing on both sides as to it's bearing upon the future of the temperance movement in the country at large.

been borne to the lonely spot
where they were found by
some proud Spanish conquer
or, or whether they had been
taken in battle by powerful
Indian chiefand carried 10 the

! he fact thatthe remains we're

fact that the wearcr of the

they came from the head ofa

Mr.. Page did not study the
formation OF the skull so he
cannot throw any light on the
question of the nationality Of
the once beautifully decorated

he gave some of the things in

tale OF the discovery of a skel
eton and richtrappings Of old
EN- days comes f ON II Paso
says the Albuquerque Citizen
Ghosts ofthe past were con
jured up yesterday afternoon
in the office of r. NJ Black il
the Center block 7Swhen a sack
full of ancient trappings mix
ed carelessly with bits Of gold
rock, were spread out on the
table and speculated upon by
mining and newspaper men.
Theprecious relics are beau
tifully fashioned, of pure silver
and carefully chased. The
surface is discolored to a lead
like black, but there seems TO
be no erosion.
The trappings came out of
a grave which was found at
the top Of a.hill about four
miles north of Sylvanite bv
l.. |. Page Of this city, while
he was prospecting over some
sroupd in the interest Of K.
NJ. Black lnfollowing a fine
ledge of quartz which ran up
over a hill Page came upon a
pile Of stone which seemed TO
have been placed there by
some human hand. He care
fully removed the top stones
and soon saw that there was
somthi 6 within the mound.
Further investigation prov
ed that the something was a
pile Of human bones, SO old
that they lcruLlbled at the
touch. In picking up bits Of
metal within the bier, Page
scon realized that he had made
find and further close search
revealed the fact that this was
no ordinarygrave. For there
in the dusty bones were her
aldis trappings which must
have come from the sunny
coasts Of Spainin the great ex-
peditions which went through
this section of the country from
the coaquerors of NJ ontezuma.
The most important piece
is a beautiful piece OF head
gear consisting of a frontal
plate having a ercsc ut pen
dant. This was undoubtedly
the trapping of a Spanish
knight whose house had been
prominent in the crusades
against the Caracens, retain
ing the crescent of emblama-
ticconquests in the holy lands.

Tuberculin 9

According to a statement made by
Prof. @. b. Lane, formerly assistant
chief of the Dairy Division, United
States Department. Of Agriculture,
Philadelphia, has had Its milk supply
made practically free from the dangers
of tubercular infection. He declared
that the percentage Of tuberculosis
germs in the milk supply has been
practically reduced to nothing, while
two months ago IL per cent. Of the
milk that was furnished to the con-
sumers was dangerous.
Some OF the dairymen followed the
diseased cows to the slaughter house
and were surprised at the bad condi.
ton Of the animals which they had
kept in their herds for years, and
which they believed to be healthy.
The reporting Of these conditions,
which they saw with their own eyes,
to their fellow dairymen aided very
materially in the progress OF the
work. Now that the work In the
cleansed districts is done, 1t Is
doubtful whether q single dairy.
man could be found who would object
to q retest OF his herd or would &c
back to former conditions, the reason
being that he has been taught that
diseased cows In his herd not only in.
jure the healthy animals, thus caus'
ing a heavy loss, but also endange1
the members of his own family who
consume milk from the herd.
An incident comes to me of a herd
that was found diseased in one sec.
ti0n through the tubercufin test and
upon looking into the health of the
family owning this Herd 1t was found
that n boy had recently been sent
to the hospital dying with tubercu.
losis and there was another case al
home. Here was strong circumstan.
tial evidence at least; that the dis,
eased milk was the cause of the iii.
ness.
All Of this testing work is very ed
vocational to farmers and those who
have had their herds examined have

Dangers of Gasoline.

A pint Of gasoline spilled in a closed
room will make 90 cubic feet OF air a
high explosive. A high explosive
is one which on ignition expands with
greater force than guppowder.
About seven-eights Of the gasoline
sold is known as 6s degrees that Is
It's weight Is SO per cent. that OF
water. This is the kind sold by
grocers for heating and lighting. Dif-
ferent lots Of it vary two OF three de-
grees in specific gravity. Gasoline
heavier than this but lighter than
kerosene is known to the trade as
naptha or benzine. 1t is used by dry
cleaners. For automobile engines
''stove" gasoline is used in summer
and naptha of 76 degrees In winter.
Death by burning is death In its
most horrible form. Gasoline vapor
is exploded by the same accidents as
gunpowder and its being invisible
adds greatly to the danger. There
fore the state should limit its sale as
the sale Of other high explosives Is
limited.
Liquid gasoline never explodes. 1t
cannot because ii contains no oxygen
and oxygen Is necessary to the com
bustion which constitutes an explo-
sion. The higher explosives used IN
war all contain so much oxygen that
they a be exploded without the
presence of air. A mixture OF gaso-
line in vapor form with eight to eigh-
ty per cent. Of air forms a high explo-
sive which will run an automobile, or
fire a cannon ball.
A recently emptied can is the one
most likely to explode from a spark
or hot match-stick falling into It, for
it contains air and vapor in the pro-
portion to make an explosive mixture.
| When a can Is full Of gasoline its
vapor cannot be exploded. The vapor
coming from the mouth Of a can will
burn until the collar melts OF and
afterwards without exploding even
