KILLED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO
MEET HIS MOTHER.

New Orleans, Jan. 11.-Little five
year-old Thomas Coste. 1903 Camp
died at 1880 a. M, Thursday in a
ward in the TOuro Infirmary as the
result of injuries received Wednes-
day afternoon by being struck and
mangled by street car at Camp and
General Taylor streets. Because of
the terrible condition of his legs the
surgeons deemed it necessary to am
putate both of the lads limbs.
The youngster was standing on the
gallery of his home, which is at Cen
eral Taylor and Camp, and seeing his
mother walking towards the house
from Magazine, the lad hurried down
the steps and rushed in her direction.
1t happened that Henry clay ave-
nue. car No. 3S4, in charge of Motor
man P. J. Schultzman, came dashing
along at this moment and was only
q few yards away from the crossing
when the motorman discovered the
child in the act of passing in front of
the car. The brakes were applied,
but before the conveyance. could be
brought to a stop the damage was
done. Both of the child's legs were
mangled by the wheels of the car.
Mrs. Coste did not realize that the
injured lad was her own until the
little fellow had been picked up by
Inspector Henry McGuigan of the
railway company and carried of to
the Touro 1nfirmary, several blocks
distant. After a careful examina-
ton the surgeons performed the task
Of amputating the lads limbs.
The child recovered consciousness
for a time Thursday morning and lay
on his white bed, smiling as though
free from pain. When the members
Of his family entered the room in
which he was confined the lad look
cd up into their faces and smiled.
The doctors stated that the little fe!-
low was one of the most remarkable
youngsters they had ever come in
contact with.
About 10 o'clock the child lost
consciousness and his condition,
which was much improved earlier in
the morning, became alarming, and
death occurred shortly.
This is the second accident of this
nature that has occurred in this
during the past year.

Worthless Land Made valuable
The demonstration OF the pump
ing proposition in the Mimbres val
ley has had tremendous effect up
on many other underflOw valleys in
the southwest Land that was con-
sidered worthless a few years ago
has taken on value since the demon
stration at Deming- And not con-
tent with the actual demonstration.
the citizens OF Deming have given
wide publicity To the feasibility Of
pumping water, and many other sec
uons In the southwest have ava ened
to find untold wealth in underground
water which heretofore had been
considered inaccessible
There are number of conditions
which determine whether or not

ingress Of the water into the porous
strata which carry it under the val
ley. In some sections where nature
has not left an opportunity for water
to find its way into the underground
strata man supplies this by building
wingdams and spreading the water
out over a porous surface that al
mits it into the underflOw. An inter
esung case in point is that OF the san
BernardinO basin in California After
a number Of years the artesian wells
OF this basin ceased TO flow. The
flow was restored by the device men
toned above. and the waterplane OF
the entire valley was raised a consid-
cradle distance.
Quality Depends Upon Soil.
The quality of the water is deter
mined largely by the soil through
which the water percOlates- In some
cases. where the strata contains salts
and allzalies fl renders the water val
ueless for irrigation In other dis
tricts, where the strata are composed
of gravel and clean sand. water gains
