He shook his head obviously and
said:

sequences be? Gordon would be missed

SWEETEST IN THE WORLD. An Overlooked PeCuliarity of
 Salt River. Stranded Tempeans Know About 1t and Are Willing to Give
 Up the Secret.

The river rose at the rate of a foot an hour all Tuesday night and was still rising yesterday.
 Last evening it had raised nine feet and was flowing at the rate of twenty miles an hour, carrying everything be- fore it.
 Quite camp of belated travellers arc lodged across the river and several rigs belonging to Tempe livery stables are thus detained.
 Large numbers of people were stand ing on both banks watching the enor- nous body of water on its wild course down the stream. The stage communi- cations which had been delayed, were resumed yesterday afternoon and stages conveyed passengers to the bridge, where, on walking across the trestle, another stage awaited them.
 It is expected that the ferryboat will be in running order by today and thus bring relief to the people on both sides of the river.
 It is 8 fact not generally known that the Salt River is the swiltest stream of its slze in the world.

 Nile Peterson has under considers- tion the erection of new building ad- joining the Armstrong building on Mill avenue. This would give the street a solid row of brick buildings unsurpassed by any street in the town.
 The Tempe board of trade and the people of Tempe are now making ar engagements for another reception which they wish to tender to the mem bers of the legislature now assem bled in,Phenix. This reception, judging from the pro- gram, will be the greatest ever held in Tempe or even in the valley.

THE TEMPE LAND SUIT.
A Verdict Yesterday in Favor
 of the Defendants.
Territorial Interest With Whicr the Final Decision Is
 Awaited.

Owing to illness Judge Campbell was unable to appear in the Land case yesterday. Kingsbury his associate counsel for the Tempe Land Co.,, con- cluded his closing argument.
 Mir. Stewart, for Daggs Bros, ex- pressed regret. that Judge Campbell was not present.
 Mir. Stewart reviewed the case in a speech which lasted over an hour. At its close the court presented two forms of verdict to the jury. The judge now cleared the court room and left the jury to it's deliberation. It took but a few minutes to arrive at verdict for on the first ballot they found verdict for ths plaintiff, thus giving to Daggs Bros, the right to occupy the land in controversy.
 MT. Geo. Gage, the secretary of the Tempe Land and Improvement com pany, is the only resident member of the company in the territory and through him as agent the company has had possession of the land since 1887.
 Under the lease which the school board gave to Daggs Bros., the board receives $6C0 per year for the benefit of the school.
 Mir. Kingsbury, on behalf of his clients, gave notice of appeal from the verdict of the justice court to the dis trict court. The case will no doubt be in the courts for some time, for no mat ter which way the district court de- cides, the beaten side will carry it to a higher court. The final outcome is looked for with interest all over the territory, as it will show whether or not school land can be leased to private individuals and money realized Tn this way devoted for the benefit of the schools.
