DISTRICT COURT.
The Law Administered Where
 It Is Made.
Proceedings of Yesterday in Both the Civil and Criminal
 Divisions.

District court convened yesterday in the council chamber of the city hall The grand jury had not filed it's fna report which will include only an in vestigation of county affairs. The re- port will be made today and the jury will be discharged.
 J. B. Bernard, who pied guilty tc burglary in the second degree, was brought in to be sentenced. His attor. ney, ex-Governor Zulick, presented whatever extenuating circumstances hung about the case and Bernard was let of with one year at Yuma.
 John Hoffman had pied guilty to petit larceny and the plea had been accepted. It appeared, therefore, that his confinement in the county jail of nearly three months waiting for the grand jury was sufficient punishment and he was sentenced to one more day.
 Geo. McInernsy. indicted for em beg. element last Saturday, was arraigned and his pleading set for this morning.
 A great deal of work was gone over on the civil side but little was actually dis posed of. The Gila Bend Reservoir and Irrigation company matter was con- tinued until today.

You know he threw all his patients into fits for he was he sad h-l on fits. Yon'd better throw all your cases into school contests"

Trades Unionism in China.

The Chinese trades unions can trace their history back for more than four thousand years. The Chinaman does not discuss with his employer what he is to receive for the work he does: he simply takes what he considers fair and proper remuneration. He levies toll on every transaction, according to laws laid down by his trades union, and without for moment taking into con sideration what his employer may con- sider proper. He is, therefore, says a correspondent of the Philadelphia Tel egraph, generally called thief, but he is acting under due guarantees, in obedience to laws that are far better observed and more strict than any the police have been able to impose.

The real safety Of the Treasury lies In its

as here, the number employed may be made
so considerable that their sudden attack and
capture. or thoir bribery. is rendered improba-
BILE or perhaps quite impracticable. ANY sys-
