PHOENIX, Ariz., Aug. 3l.—As a result of the agitation begun two months ago, the largest representation of the farming and business interests of the Salt River Valley met here to-day toagree upon plans {for an adequate and permanent water | supply. Several projects were brought | forward. After an all-day session the plans were put in the hands of a commit- | tee of thirty, representing every interest in the valley.

Bacon’s Three Recipes for the Man-| ufacture of Such a Liquid. For centurles the alchemists, who rep- | resent the best of medieval science, be- | stirred themselves over their crabbed | scrolls and smoky furnaces to find three precious things—the universal solvent, the | hilosopher's stone and the elixir of life. | uman ideals change slowly, for all the change in_human environment and lan- guage and power, riches and length of | days still represent the secret wishes of | nine men out of ten. Bacon, with his | usual sagacity, observed that any one who | professed to have discovered a way of putting off old age, or of renewing youth, would not easily be believed. But he add- | ed that it was much more likely to be at- | tained by rules which the persevering study of nature would gradually teach | mankind, than, as the alchemists, who were unconsciously founding modern chemistry, still hoped, by means of “a very few drops, or even scruples, of some precious liquor 'or quin‘essence.”” He was | So far in the fashion, however, as to give | three of the best recipes for'the manu- | facture of such a liquor, though, with (he} proviso that it was rather mind than body that these cordials were likely to affect. One consisted of potable gold. which there | were many approved ways of making: an- | other consisted of pearls dissolved in Cleo- | patra’s manner, or filed down into a con- serve with Sweetmeats: a third of pow: dered emeralds and jacinths, about which he was prudently not very sure ob asperi- tatem. Whatever might have been the virtu of such nostrums, one thing Is clear—they were hopelessly out of reach of the or. dinary man, and if they had been efficient | the universal longevity of the rich would | have develaped a more complete plutoc- | racy than has vet been known. But none of them was any good, and it is oniy in| the New Atlantis that men have yet dis- covered the “water of paradise * * very sovereign for health and prolonga- | tion of life. London Spectator.

Sportsmen in Alameda County, and this city, too, for that matter, are considerably | interested in the charges filed by the State Fish and Game Commissioners against W. 8. Dunlevy, the game warden | across the bay. Dunlevy is accused of being either incompetent or neglectful of | his duties, or both. The accusations are | based upon the many complaints made by | people living in_Alameda County who are interested in the preservation of game. According to the statement of Secretary | J. P. Babcock, scarcely a week passes but from one to a dozen people visit the San Francisco office and tell of violations of | the law across the bay, and in every in- | stance they assert that Dunlevy declines to attend to his dutles. Commissioner Gould says the Comm! sioners have no choice of warden for Ala. meda County, but they want a man who | will_attend to his dutles. He says the Legislature in providing for county game | wardens did so in order to relieve the | State Board of a large amount of work. It is for the protection of game in the several counties that the wardens are allowed a salary of $1% and $25 for ex-| penses. The hearing in the Dunlevy matter will | come up before the Alameda Supervisors | next Tuesday evening and the Commis- | present to prosecute lhe; a haif | 73 matter. - —_—— Breaks a World’s Record.
