STOLE Or CHR1sT7zA Ae.
John Xxf&ss1Y Takes IA side of
Leather ana GctS Into Trouble.

John Rigsby, a young white man in
the emploo of the sanitary department,
under District Officer holland, was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Deputy
Sheriff Hampton, charged with theft.
Rigsby had stolen Il side of upper leather
from d. 6. holland on South Main street
and sold it to ]. {. Moore on North
Main for 20 cents. Rigsbv, when
asked why hc haG committed the theft,
said: You fellows had plenty of Christ
mas and | didn't have any, so | thought
| would get some that way"
This morning Rigsbv was before JUS
tice Frank Garter, admitted his guilt
and was sent up to await court.
District Officer holland says Rigsby
has been in trouble before for stealing,
although he had not been arrested. He
had stolen chickens, and the prosecution
was held up on payment of the price of
the fowls, in the hope that Rigsby would
reform. AS to Rigsbys having no
Christmas, he has had work three
fourths of the time for several months in
the sanitary department.

THE LIGHT QUESTION.
The AlGierIne EN- and MIR. Carrier In
Consultation.

The Board OF Aldermen held a special
meeting today for the purpose of con-
sulting President E. G. Carrier of the
West Asheville Improvement company
with regard to settlement Of the con-
troversy between the city and the COM
pany regarding the city's lights. Mr.
Carrier proposed to accept pay for 20
lights and leave the question OF pay for
the remaining 20 lights to be decided
hereafter.
The CITY contended it could afford to pay
for only 20 lights and that that number
was all it was liable for under the con-
tract. 1t was willing, however, to leave
the balance claimed by Mr.. Carrier to be
settled in the way indicated by him.
On motion of Alderman Jones the mat
ter was referred to the finance commit
tee, who, with City Attorney Sondley
will settle with Mr.. Carrier and report
to next meeting.

"" IN this end the secretary of the
M, company at first thought he

';mo there was no order issued to the
S S,as master to turn the water as was
'.onssred, Then the water master was
,,ssddne,ted to yet an order from the sec

Wv in the meantime heard that the

Sbsn the water master came for the
~,der 10 deliver the water, 1t was re-
io.pd upon the ground that it was an

'ocrplary did not suit the stockhold-
ora who granted that their share Of the
water should 60 to the section above
mentioned.
Thea the question arose as to why
the secretary did not comply with their
wishes. 1t seems to he quite plain that
the secretary has taken the proper view
nj the question a. stated owing to the
fact that the water was TO be used not
10 save the suffering crops but to give
desert claimants chance to prove up
m their claims. 1t is not claimed that
the using Of water to prove up on the
/ caim. is improper or wasteful hut that
the growing crops in other sections OF
the valley are in need OF water and to
divert the water as requested by the
/ vO khOl lerS is improper.
The share or stock holders claim they
can make Whatever disposition OF their
share OF water they choose; however
/ they may not have carefully read the
recent de .ision OF the court in regard
to what is Considered rightful use OF
water or probably they would not have
taken the position on the question they
have.
/ The writer does not claim TO thoro-
4 ughy understand the intricacies OF the
case and when it is thoroughly
discussed it may appear quite different
from what it does at present. There is
no doubt that the parties asking the
transfer OF the water hold that they
have perfect right to do so and that
their request should be complied with
a. tney stand ready to censure the
Secretary for not complying.

The Carelessnes. Of brothers.

The girl who has q brother knows how
careless a brother can be about sweet
little notes and long, affectionate letters.
She knows how many he receives Of
them, and this is a knowledge that would
surprise the other girls. They have such
dainty stationery-the other girls-with
monograms and all that sort Of thing,
and they seem to like SO well to use Ii in
writing to the brother, and he Is rather
proud than otherwise Of these communi-
cations.
Why should he care il people know
that the prettiest, sweetest girls on the
avenue begin their letters to him in
rather a familiar style and end them in q
even more 80? So it happens
that he often leaves specimens Of his cor.
respondence lying about in a way that
would surprise and grieve their fair and
