Measuring MOONLIGHT.

The full moon is said to give great
deal more than twice the light of the
bali moon. The ratio is approximately
AZ nine to one. Taking advantage of
the extreme sensitiveness TO light of
a selenium cell. experimenters have
measured the amount Of light coming
from the moon at different phases.
with the result above mentioned The
reason for the remarkable difference
shown is to be found In the varying
angles of reflection presented by the
roughened surface Of our satellite TO
the sun. The moon is brighter be-
tween first quarter and full han be
tween full and last quarter The
cause Of this is evident In the more
highly reflective character Of that
part of the moon that lies west of its
meridian.

 NEW PROJECT
Union Meat Market Will Be Opened Tomorrow; An Independent Concern Run in Connection With Its Slaughter House

The newest meat market of Phoenix opens Saturday at 116 North First avenue. The proprietor. E. Linsen- meyer is an experienced handler of meat and meat products, from live stock to prepared food. He has been in business at Mesa and Ray, and now plans trying out a larger city as a field of enterprise.
 It was planned to open the Union Meat Market" last week, but owing to a delay in fixing the pipes for cold storage, it was impossible to keep fresh meat The delay of a week win give the proprietors a chance to make fuller preparation to receive custom CTS.
 In connection with the Union Mark ct will be operated a killing station on South 17th avenue and a secondary market on South 7th avenue. The slaughter house will enable the men behind the business to buy on the hoof, do their own selecting and killing, dress the beef to suit them and mark ct it at prices very satisfactory to the customer All business at the Union will be of a strictly cash kind and in this way MT Linsenmeyer expects to make prices to the advantage of the retail buyer.
 Linsenmeyer has been in the meat supply business all his life. He likes the work of providing people with part of their daily diet, and with his wide experience ought to make good thing of it here.

TICKETS ISSUED
 FOR FLORENCE AR|z.
lndeterminate Sentences Passed on
 Four Admitted Criminals.

There were two sessions of the su- perior court yesterday mainly for the purpose of passing sentence on persons charged with felonies and brought before the court on infor- nation. and who had pleaded guilty They were Leonard Jones, a Seneca Indian, who had committed a series of forgeries: Juan Flores, for grand larceny; V. Hernandez bicycle thief supposed to be insane and an alien who will probably be depOrted later, and Juan Yanes, for criminal assault.
 An indeterminate sentence of from one to fourteen years was passed on each of these men. Flores had served one term in the penitentiary under another name and Deputy Sheriff Lew Mickey, who noticed Yenas TT the first time closely yesterday, hclie ed that he identified him as Juan E,s- pinosa, whom he had good cause to remember. Yanes looked narrowly at the officer as though he knew him but denied that he was Espinosa or that he had ever been in the prison.
 The incident that had impressed it. self, as well as the features of Yanes on the officer. took place at Ray five years ago when the officer was member of the rangers. He had made an arrest of a Mexican and Espinosa and another man tried to take the prisoner from him. In order that he might be left free to defend him. self the ranger knocked the prisoner down with his gun. Just then one of the rescuing party drew a knife across the officers stomach, severing his belt. The ranger shot and killed him. He then captured EspinsOa,. who was sentenced later to one year in prison for interfering with an officer.
 After his conviction, he said that he would kill the ranger as soon as he was free

ANYONE CAN GROW PEANUTS

In any locality where there are one hundred days between the last frost of spring and the first frost of fall peanuts can be raised.
 In any back yard or garden, where there is room enough to grow any thing. there is room enough for a few hills of the plant.
 Peanuts are easy to raise. The seed is easy to procure. They may be had of any commission firm. Buy the peanuts tlfat have not been roast ed. Those that have been exposed to heat have had the life germ in them killed.
 Farmers have found peanuts so easy to raise that they are planting them as a hay. They feed the tops. as well as the nuts themselves. They impart a wonderful flavor to the but ter and milk of cows that are fed upon them. The hams cut from hogs fed on peanuts are the most famous in the world.
 The ground should be worked deep ly. and the peanuts planted in shal- low furrows about twenty seven inches apart. They must not be GOV cred too deeply if they are to make a quick growth.
 Keep the soil fairly loose and free from weeds. They will grow very rapidly if the weather is at all fav- orable.
 Harvesting peanuts is a simple matter The vines are pulled or dug up. The peanuts will be found clus- tering to the roots. They must be all lowed to dry and cure thoroughly before they are eaten.
 The variety known as the Spanish peanut is the most certain in it's GroWth.-St Louis Republic.

TALE OF AN IVORY POACHER.
James w. Rogers, An American, Raid
 ed in BeIuian Conqo.


 ed in Belgian Congo.
 One of the most thrilling tales of ivory poaching in the heart of Africa ever told came to light a few days ago when the cables reported the death of James Ward Rogers, an American, who, it is said, was hunted down by British soldiers in the depth of the jungles of Central Africa, where for years he had killed elephants and traded ivory in defiance of the British laws.
 The following is Rogers own story told to a fellow American in London:
 Tt is impossible, save for the highly favored few, to obtain a license to shoot elephants in the Congo Free State, and with my fellow poachers afraid to venture into this region l may say it was almost virgin terri tory in the sense of ivory shooting.
 Tn nine days I had shot thirty ele- plants and had nearly ton and a half of ivory, worth, roughly, $S,OOO. This was a good bag, and t was best to get away with it at Once It was very dangerous to stay long III the country-a quick dash in, a weeks shoot and a dash out to escape the numerous bands of Belgian game war dens and askaries (sOldiers) always on the move, was my game Then, too, I had agreed to meet my partner at Wadelai, on the Nile, on the last day of the month, only ten days off
 On arriving at the west bank of the Nile I scanned the English shore with my glasses in the endeaVOr to pick up my partners camp. It was not to De found there, but on turning my gaze to my own side of the river l discerned his tent about a mile up the bank and pressing forward alone l walked into the camp, where a Belgian as- kari greeted me.
 These Belgians had heard of my be- ing in the country, and by making a straight track for the Nile from Gum biri, travelling forty miles day, had cut me off. They came upon my part ners camp during their march down the western bank and rushed it. Luck fly my partner got away, but not With out the loss of $500 worth of guns ana ten times that in ivory. l escaped that night.
 With a few dollars my partner ana I purchased an old .31S magazine rltle and supply of cartridges from an ln- dian trader at FarabongO, and two days afterward with but three na- tives in my train I again entered the Belgian country. Eight days march again brought me to my game. In

four days I had shot thirty-two ele- plants.
 This was my last bag of my second safari, and I decided that I had had enough. The problem was now to get safely into Uganda with my booty Getting the tusks out necessitated a vexatious and trying delay, as I had no hatchet of any description, and was compelled to wait for the bodies to decompose sufficiently to allow the tusks to be pulled out by hand.
 This wait of eight days was terrib- ly trying. There I was with thirty two dead elephants lying around me in a radius of about eight miles-nearly $10,0OO worth of ivory-and every minute expecting the Belgians had found out I was again in the country and would again appear on the scene.
 Having collected all my tusks, sixty two in number-one set found prac- tically worthless and left-and picked up sufficient natives to porter it, we started for the Nile at Bora, some what to the north of Wadelai, where by first expedition had ended so dis astrously. We reached and crossed the river safely and then we: on without incident to Koba
 There I declared the tusks for GUS toms duty. Of course, the British of ficial knew the ivory had been poach ed, but that happened in Belgian ter ritory, and he didn't bother his head thinking up foolish and unnecessary punctilios. The government took 15 per cent import and 10 per cent export duty, which I arranged to pay through the local bank of Mombasa firm, and l turned over my tusks to their agent.
