 Last evening MT. Frank Sailor came in town and shocked the city with the announcement that his little girl had been drowned in the canal. MT. Sailor and his family live on the bank of one of the large canals sev- eral miles southeast Uf Tempe. The danger of some accident to the lit le ones had been source of constant dread to the parents. About a week ago MT. Sailor decided to fence in the yard away from the canal and accord lngly he came to town and ordered a net-wire fence. The wire for some reason did not reach the ranch The parents, and the mother especially, are grief stricken. The funeral will per- haps take place tomorrow.
 MT. D, R. Brigham came in on the Maricopa train this morning from Cal ifornia. He electrified the community with the intelligence that while at Maricopa he heard going over the wires that General Fitzhugh Lee had been assassinated. People gathered in groups on Mill avenue and at the postoffice and in a very subdued, yet intense manner, discussed the situa- tion. Everybody was questioned for corroboration or denial of the report Even The Republican representative on reaching town was eagerly pressed for information. Following is the in formation sought this morning, but which could not be given because of the lack of it: MT. Brigham un- doubtedly overheard the message, but like message went over the same wire two weeks ago to the San Fran cisco Examiner. The Republican heard of the message at that time and not receiving anything on the matter rom the Associated Press, telegraphed

 Mir. McLane they had not met at III, nor did they again, on that now un- clouded wedding journey, once encoun- ter her. It was easy to trace the Wal derings of this Manhattan magnate and his lovely wife. Their movements were the subject of daily paragraphs in the papers from San Diego to Seattle. and not until they had left Coronado Beach did he Merriams go thither. Net until the teLanes were heralded at the Pal ace in San Francisco did the happy couple move on to Monterey, and there one morning as they were at breakfast the papers were brought in and there was sensation. Merriam had not yet begun to appear at table with that in fallible symptom of the long-married coup,e-a newspaper for his own en- tertainment and silence for his wife and he and she were glancing about the great apartment and exchanging hap py. low-toned condolences about their surroundings and possibly their fellow sojourners.
 ! nanat an adjoining table, however, had opened the sheet and suddenly eX- claimed: My God!" and this instantly attracted the attention of his wife, who had resignedly accepted the situation and was finding such consolation as ske could in studying the occupants of the room. He began to read aloud: MT. John Harold McLane, of New fork who with his charming young wife has been spending a few days in this city, was shot and dangerously wounded while stepping into his carriage in front Of the University club at late hour last night, his unknown assailant escaping in the confusion that followed. The ball, evidently heavy one, struck him with such force that the shock felled him instantly. He was carried into the

the branch office of that institution at Los Angeles and was told not to pay any attention to the report, as it was without foundation. The report. however, formed basis for an alarm ing headline in the Gazette the next morning and because it gave credence to the report after being explicitly in- structed by The Republican not to do so, the latter paper dubbed the for mer's telegraphic service a grape vine institution. Now the only As sociated Press dispatches which came into the Salt River valley on Sunday came in in the evening and those to The Republican office. No corrobo- ration of the Examiners message, which very likely it was, has been re- ceived at this office so far from the As sociated Press.
 Rev. Daniel Kloss in his Appeal to the Undecided" today, 1mplored his congregation to be Christians or not be Christians 'If God be God, wor- ship Him. If Baal be God, worship him." He said there were some 200 church members in this vicinity and if they had all attended the union meetings the revival services would have been grand success.
 Chaplain Scott offered the com munion today and made the Lords supper the subject of his sermon. Rev. R. A. ,. Hopper talked on the Way of Life" He quoted the follow ing passages from the bible in answer to his text, What Must I Do to Be Saved:' Believe on the Lord Jesus "Whomsoever shall call upon the @f 1lrl ho ''The word is nigh thee in thy mouth and in thy heart that is the word of | faith which we preach, because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved;" "He that be- lieveth and is baptized shall be saved" | ''He that endureth to the end shall be saved.''
 Rev. s. l.. Guthrie's subject this morning was "Our Troubles The troubles we regret were, perhaps, all for the best. We did not know. Our vision was short and our range of hearing was limited. The shOrtneSs and this limitation was the now which we lived in and which we should live
 in. If we thought some person had done us an injury we judged that per son with prejudice We saw the per son "dimly as in a mirror" The more we looked at the reflection in the mirror the more incensed we became,
 but when we stopped to consider we
 discover that we have read into that
 persons life our own faults; we have
 been gazing at ourselves" ''The more
 I know God the more nobility, sym pathy and purity I discover in man kind and the more beautiful and lovely becomes the world. I have walked
 through it's fields, have gazed into
 the blue arch above, I have watched the fieecy clouds shepherded by the
 lazy winds, I have looked away to the
 distant mountain tops and saw the
 shadows cast upon them; al lbeauty
 and colorings of delight which smote the heart with ecstacy. This is in the
 now; Oh, what shall it be when right
 eousness shall reign supreme?"

THE HOUSE THAT CANT BUILT
 Chapter IT.

l Chapter II.
 "A thing begun is half done" The house was now to rise as a monument of MT. Gant's enterprise. It was not his intention to build a two-story house, but on the contrary he thought to build One-story house, leaving the gables open for a thorough circula- tion of air. His idea was to secure the greatest coolness possible. Upon the convincing figures of Justice Mey- CTS, which showed that it would cost but little more, he decided to build it two stories, close the gables and leave the second story to be finished on the inside, at the option of certain future occupants.
 | This decided, everything went of | smoothly. the house rapidly assumed shape the people of the neighborhood watching it closely and making it the subject of conversation at the fireside l during the long winter evenings, and the people on the ranch enjoying a continuous social during the house raising.
 On the 18th of December the house was half done. The frame was all up and the roof and siding all on, and the | building began to indicate what it would look like when finished And as it assumed it's shape and size the comments and favorable expressions grew in number. It was no wonder, however, for rising to the height of two stories and extending on the ground for distance of thirty-two feet it gave promise of a magnificent structure way out on the border of civilization and untamed nature. The ladies of the community got up big Christmas tree at the Reddin school house. It was no small affair, as the presents represented great deal of money and bore the names of great many people. The next day as the carpenters and ranchmen were about to start tc work they were sur prised by the abrupt appearance of MT. Cant joyfully flourishing red bandana handkerchief, and gleefully exclaiming, "Who says that somebody hasn't got an eye on this house?"
 But the events in this story must not be anticipated too much, so this will not be dwelt upon for the present.
 The building of the house continued without any delay being caused by the holidays more than for Christ mas and New Years. When the proper time came door knobs, locks, catches and hinges, window pulleys and other incidentals from H. w. Ryder's large establishment were put in the house as they should be. The provisions hay ing run low again a wagon load of groceries and dry goods was hauled out to the ranch from J. Jungermann's S bargain store." MT. Meyers having induced MT. Cant to build the house two stories instead of one, and MT. Cant having decided to build another room on the porch, there were sev- eral more loads of lumber taken out from the Blinn Lumber company. The room will be used for a bedroom.
 John Mclean, the tinsmith, fur nished the house with chimney thim- bles and wall protectors around the stovepipe holes. There was butter, cheese. potatoes and other produce from the Tempe-Mesa Produce con- pany to replenish the good nature of the workmen and to keep everything moving smoothly.
 The house was finally ready for it's clothes. Mr. Cant looked all over the country and found w. H. Staton, paint

moments Of argument they admit to be 5000. inches, to go past that lana into the Extension for their benefit and also they have at times turned their water into the river to get rid of it.
 Now, then, these facts being as they are, the Extension people threated to use the kibbey decision against the Lehi people and take all their water away from them forever if they do not peaceably divide the water when water is scarce, and also make them pay their unjust burden of the expense Of repairs on the dam and canal. On the ether hand, the Lehi people threaten to use the same decision against the Extension people and take all the water away from them which their old shares entities them to, if those people do not behave themselves.
 These are the principal facts only il the muddle Any one shareholder can dig up a thousand and one other grievances unlimited in range and va riety. This is the way matters stood Monday morning when the stOckhcld- CTS gathered from all over the south side ard got together at Lehi for the purpose of efscting directors. Direct ors. Here again enters a new feature. Where the directors came from would decide where the water would go. For years the majority of stock was held in Lehi, the directors were elected from Lehi and the water whan Lehi wished stayed in Lehi. The people under the Extension embraced every opportunity to buy up shares of stock and Monday morning it was not known positively where the majority existed.
 In the next issue Of this paper wiD be depicted one of the ditch meetings that have made Lehi famous and which the Utah people only can equal.
