There is at present in Phoenix
several cases of typhoid fever. Such
should not be, as no country in the
world under average conditions is
more free from malaria. Some OF
this is occasioned by weeds, rub

comes from other sources. For in

Pittsburg can sympathize with
Chicago. Recently the controller
paid off $21l 900 worth of bonds,
Il portion of the issue negotiated
by Allegheny county to Lay the
damages sustained by railroads
centering in Pittshurg during the
riots of 1877. Chicago will likely
have to issue bonds for a similar
purpose. There have been claims
aggregating over $l,175,000 filed
against that city by the railroad
and other corporations who suf :
tered loss as result of the rail-
road strike last year. he smallest
claim filed is in lelalf. cf the Pull :
man Palace Gar Company, and
amounts to only $26.50. There is
something in that fact for strikers
20 ponder. The strike which cul !
minated at Chicago was ostenslhly
directed against the Pullman Com :
pany, and yet that concern appears
to have suffered less than any per-
81 n or corporation involved in the
trouble. The greatest sufferer
there, as in Pittsburg, was the
taxpayer Silver Belt.

Thursday the Supreme court OF
Arizona announced decision that
settles definitely cne of the most
vexatious questions that has evet
come before our Arizona courts
of law. The matter which has
been in the courts for two years,
concerns simply the right Of the
Mesa Consolidated Canal to carry
the water Of the Tempe Canal, to
be used in transit for power pur-
poses.
The Tempe one of the oldest wa
ter ways of the valley, is entitled,
according to section one, to an ap-
preparation of from i've to eleven
thousand miners inches. The Me
sa Consolidated has capacity of
forty thousand miners inches, and
is fully equipped for the delivery
of the Tempe water yer a thirty
FIVE foot bluff into the lower canal
two miles from the Tempe. heading
The delivery was attempted bySu :
perintendent Chandler of the Con-
solidated, in 1892, but he was stop
ped by temporary injunction,
since by Judge Baker made per-
manent.
The Tempe people claimed dam
age by the postponed delivery, a
claim in which they were sustained
by the lower court. But no OBJ
lection was made to the delivery
of the Tempe water through a
crosseut from the Arizona canal,
that turned the legal amount of
water into the river channel at the
Tempe canal dam. This has, ex-
cept in times of flood, been the
manner of supply ever since, it be-
ing recognized that delivery thro'
the canal is by far more economic
al than through the thirsty river
bed.
The Supreme court has settled
all, however, by reversal of Judge
Bakers decision. The Chandler
company nov is insured its un-
doubted priority of the right to
carry far power purposes the wa
ters of the Tempe canal, bound only
by the obligation to do no damage
to the banks of the lower ditch in
delivery.
Thus one of the finest water
powers of the west is secured to
the Mesa canal and the valley is
saved flow Of several thousand
inches of summer flow that other
wise would be lost in the river
sands. Tempe News

A leading capitalist of the City
of Mexico the other day expressed
the belief that if the United States
would fully restore silver it would
bring great prosperity to this
country. He thought it would
stimulate production and exports;
that there woald be such an in
crease in production and in the
volume of business that the rail
ways would regain in increased
traffic what they would loose in
having to pay their interest
charges abroad in gold. The
eastern papers are sneering at him,
and that is a certain class of them.
They will not see that Mexico is
advancing by leaps and bounds.
Looking over the wreck which
twenty-five years of gold fnan-
ciering has brought around in this
country, they see no trouble, and
they disdain the advice of the man
of Mexico, expressing the belief
that he is an owner of silver mines.
They occupy exactly the same
position. as did those who sur
rounded the cross, with thei,
taunts and their jeers, until the
Saviour, lifting up His eyes, prayed
the Father to forgive them, ''fol

"Upon that night. when fairies Eight,
On CaSsilis Down ans dance"

On Cassilis D0wnAns Dance
The usually cheerful home of Mrs.
o. 5. Powell presented startling
spectacle TO mortal eyes. For on this
evening, which seems to be a favorite
time for unearthly beings to visit this
mundane sphere, large company of
spectres had taken possession of the
rooms and made them the scene of
their ghostly reyels.
BY the weird light of jack o'lanterns
one might see the shades fittin 9
about in a mysterious manner, or
gathered in groups carrying on very
stilted conversation in distressingly
low or painfully high pitched voices.
The air was laden with groans, sup
posed TO be ghostly expressions of
hilarity, but occasionally the ear was
greeted by a genuine exclamation of
woe from some unusually tall shape
who had bumped his empty skull
against the chandelier.
Any mortal who was rash enough to
venture in upon this uncanny company
was promptly relieved of l5c and left
to the mercies of the assembled
spectres.
The ghostly part of the program
concluded with ghost march led by
an orchestra of spOoks making dole
full music upon combs. The effect of
this scene beggars description. Soon
after this, the ghosts by a process of
naturalization, assumed once more
their mortal shapes and spent the
remainder OF the evening very pleas
antly in having their fortunes told by
two famous witches who were present.
and other more usual kinds of amuse-
ments.

The River Falls starch factory is
making an unusual run this season,
having already consumed about one
hundred and twenty-five thousand
bushels of potatoes. and plenty of
potatoes back yet to run as long as
the weather Is likely TO permit. The
report circulated some time ago that
there was no sale for starch and the
factory would have TO shut down. was
not correct, aS there is sale for starch.
but il brings low price. as well as
other products. on account of over
production and the anxiety Of manu-
facturerS TO sell. The River Falls
factory is making as fine a grade of
starch Is anyOf the nineteen factories
operated in the Nor Invest. and
starch from this factory received the
preference in the Chicago market
with MeSSrS. Stein, Hirsh \ Co. who
are among the largest dealers in this
product in America. The superior
quality of starch made at this factory
is due 10 the advantages of good
water, efficient help and good varieties
OF potatoes. Ii is true that our
factory has paid too much for some
of the potatoes TO make il profitable
TO nOn-prOducing stockholders, but il
makes little or no difference TO the
producer whether he 7, ,eiyes his
profit from the sale of starch or his
potatoes. but il is little hard on the
stockholders who raise 10 potatoes

The fourth year chemistry class is
doing laboratory work in quantitative
analysis. Some of the students have
done very commendable work along
this line.
The first of a series of rhetoricals
by the students of the Sophomore,
Junior and Senior classes was given
before the school one morning last
week by Mr.. Needham.
The football team played against
Saltwater last Saturday; that is, we
will hope it was all play, taking their
word for it. Several were more or
less bruised and banged up, but of
course that goes without saying in the
football world. Score 6 to in favor
of Saltwater. Very poor umpiring
was given our boys and they are de-
termined to reverse this record as
soon as possible.
The new term opened Monday, Nov.
4th. The second year class takes up
rhetoric as a new subject; the third

this work next term, and also a new
class will be organized for this work in
two or three weeks.
The children in the primary depart
ment are developing considerable
ability in illustrating the poems
which they read and learn. The IL

but each puts into his picture what
