sdays Mexicans extract from $500 to
800 a month from the workings. The
latest project is to bring water ten miles
to the gold fields, from the foot of "Old
Badly" ten miles away, in an eight to
twelve inch volume. The Investment is
expected to be a very paying one. A

OF 4 SPICY NATURE.
Quiet Wedding'-Over the Wall
Claims that it was q Conspiracy.

Developments in the Aguilar alimony
suit, now in district court, are spicy in
nature.
On the 9Th of last April Judge Slater
was sud ienly requested one evening to
marry a couple. He found a very good
looking young man and woman, Fer
nando Aguilar and Juana Chavez, both
quiet. The young man was particularly
so-in fact did not utter a syllable dur
lug the evening. When asked: "Do
you take this woman to be your lawful
and welded vi e." he merely nodded.
The girls testimony is that she went
to the home of her husband and was
not accorded very enthusiastic greet
ing, so at the end of three days there
she jumped over wall and went to
work as a house servant. She had
learned that her N otner-in-law intended
sendIug her to Los Angeles, whittier SHE
herself had no inclination.
Aguiiar's testim my was that Stepher
OcnOa, foster-brHther of the girl, brok.
into the room where they were. Thai
he talked with Ochoa, and that Ochoa
only SAID: I'll fix it,"
In a few minutes he returned. Ex>
plantations were brief. The Edmund's
act provides seven years for such Offen~
-es. Would he marry the girl or 20 to
Yuma for ssv-n years? Not liking the
climate of Yuma he consented u be
IN irried by Judge Slater.
1t is SAID that the girl is still willing
10 live with her husband ard she
does not seek divorce, out alimony only
Agullar makes the claim that the
marriage was conspiracy.
At the present writing the case has
not been given to the jury.

and her music was thoroughly enjoyed
Prof. Gulley called upon some one To
explain the lack of interest and in reply
to his summons, the well known editor,
Mr.. Hughes, stepped forward, receiving
as he did so applause of recognition
from the audience. MIR. Hughes ada
mitted that there might have been
lack of interest in the part of the citi~
zens, but thought that there were GER
tain conditions that explained the Sit
uatlon. In the first place, this is
territory not yet settled, and there are
many people here not yet anchored;
there are many transient interests, and
the result is to be expected. Mr..
Hughes thought that there was in fact
no lack of real interest, but that the
people were busy building I'D their
homes and their business interests and
becoming established. Years are re-
CURED to solldify community, to fix
their interests and thoughts in a certain
locality, ana subsequently, it's schools.

city of its size In the United States,
which proves the educational idea is

willing to pay their school taxes, but

Hughes believed that Tucson manifest

the country. (Applause)
Prof. Guiley complimented Mr.. Hughes |
upon his ability to make the worse ap-
pear the better reason, and thought he |
put forth a very good plea in a very
poor case.
The audience listened to an excellent |
selection by the quartette, and accorded |
1T liberal applause.
Upon motion of Mr.. Holiday, vote |
of thanks was extended to the Phillar- |
