Curious Mexican Relic.

A weird looking creature is that
known to scientists as the mys-
terious tone lizard of Cuernavaca,
Mexico. This reptile, carved on a
huge bowlder lying on an overgrown
hillside, is situated about eight
miles from Cuernavaca and seven
miles southwest of the City of Mex
leo. 1t was there, centuries old,
when Cortes first saw Cuernayaca
and is supposed to have been carved
to commemorate some events in the
wanderings of the prehistoric civil
lized race which built the great pal
ace at Xochicalco, few miles away.

GETS ELECTRIC CURRENT FOR
MOTOR FROM THE CLOUDS.

Representatives Of the Pacific Gas
and Electric company OF Sacramento
and several automobile loads Of citi-
zens journeyed to the Da Rosa ranch
Saturday TO see young Roy Thomp-
son operate 35-horsepower test
motor by electricity attracted from
the atmosphere by magnets, Leyden
jars and tuning coils.
The electric people have become
30 interested in Thompson's expert
ments that they loaned him the test
motor, saying that if he could make
it run by his device ne could ope-
rate street car by the same system.
1t required 400 volts to start the
motor.
Thompson's experiment with the
motor was perfect success, for he
had the motor running at full speed
in the presence of all without any
visible means of power.
Another valuable principle that
this young electrical genius has dis
covered is to compel the sound
waves that carry wireless messages
to operate a Morse telegraph instru-

The Mountain States Telephone and

ternined an advertising etucatIOnz! ser-
les Of articles, both ia the newspapers

may mark new era IN the relation d
public utility corporations - the public
they serve. We want this education -
work both ways-that the public may
learn the truth about Us, and that -
may learn how the public regard u. and
how We may fairly and efficiently ser,-

We shall show you our financial Al
fairs, frankly and freely. 1t - HAPPENS
that our financing has been Of such I
nature that it is easy for Us 10 clearly
show to you this side Of our Attain.
What We mean by this Is, that we have
absolutely no water in our stock Ne have
no bonds, nor any preferred stock, and
no mortgage OF any kind upon which u
pay fixed charges. We have more in
vested in our plant at It's present re-
placement value than our issue Of com
mon stock, and We have no other stock
than the common stock. There are no
wheels within wheels, nor companies
within companies, to absorb profits. We
finance ourselves from year 10 year by
selling our common stock TO the people,
at not less than par, in the states in
which We operate.
When We tell you the story OF our f.
nancing, We will prove to you that there
have never been any fortunes, large or
small made out OF the manipulation OF
our stock in other words, no high d
nancing has ever been done in connec-
ton with the Mountain States Telephone
and Telegraph company, or its prede-
cessors. The stock never has had any
speculative value; it has been, and is
now, simply safe investment.
There is u great misunderstanding upon
the part Of the public as to this side OF
our business. Persons with Interior mo-
uves, striving for office, and newspapers
wishing to give startling news see notes
below frequently publish stories OF how
rich certain officials of:our company are.
Right now, this is being done in connec-
ton with the new revenue tax. We sup
pose these stories grow out Of the belief
Of certain OF the public that the execu-
tives officials OF our company own the
whole plant. 1t ia absurd, for these ex-
ecutive officials OF our company are mere
ly trustees Of the property, for the stock
holders, and none OF them are rich men.
