A S1O CALF.
Which E1nbroned Four Men in a Law
 suit

There was funny case on trial in Justice JohnStOne'S court yesterday
 which had it's origin in an apparently peaceful transaction of a year ago. A
 man named Noll rented to another man named Wyatt a COW for one year,
 beginning June 15, 1897. Noll subse- quently sold the COW to a man named
 Whitton. who was to take possession
 at the end of the fiscal year, July 15
 1898. Whittons purchase also in
 cluGed the increase of the COW for that year. At the time the COW was leased to Wyatt nothing was said about the contingency of a calf. Per ] hapS neither of them thought of it. But at length the contingency arrived and Wyatt at various times asked the lessor of the COW what was going to be done about it. Noll said he believed everything would come out all right in [ the wash. Wyatt grew impatient. The value of the COW as a lease hold was greatly reduced by the calf, for Wyatt had been led into the speculation by an unlimited prospect of milk and but ter. The prospect had faded away into the calf. Wyatt further complicated the situation by giving the calf away
 to 9 fourth man named Toney, whose right and tue in the animal. for Toney, his heirs and assigns forever, Wyatt guaranteed protection. The end of the fiscal year came and brought with it the beginning of hostilities. Whitton obtained possession of the calf and claimed about SIS for pasture, pre- sumably devoured by this S10 calf. i The suit was unique and presented | features not covered by the books. Justice Johnstone gave judgment to 1 Whitton, holding that though Toney | had been damaged by the fatal gift
 the giver Wyatt was the proper person | for him to sue. Wyatt in turn should
 have recourse against Noll. Whitton

A Lately Discovered Ally in the
 Arid Region.

Judge W. H. Barnes, who was in town on Monday, disclosed secret held by Hon. A. J. Doran of Prescott and another man which threatens to revclutioniZe existing irrigation sys- tems. The revelation was made to Judge Barnes in confidence. He in turn revealed it in confidence, but as he is now outside the territory and be- yond the jurisdiction of MT Doran's wrath, it may be given to the public, which has been waiting for some such godsend ever since people were com pelled to inhabit arid regions.

AT THE HOTELS

When the thermometer is climbing high and the air refuses somehow to oscillate material things it is relief to watch the ice wagon so by. It is a relief to listen to the water flowing When the ice wagon refuses to continue in the procession and the water ceases to flow. the next best thing is to talk about it.
 With this object in view the reporter made a second call on Mr. Ernest Abs Hagen at the Adams yesterday after noon. and while he was not prepared to make any statement as to the con templated water system of Phoenix, he was kind enough to express some good ideas and facts as to the difference be- tween private and municipal owner ship Of plants for public service.
 'The principle of common business sense applies equally to public and private enterprises said Mir Ans Hagen. This argument. however. has been disregarded entirely whenever private mo1opolies, be they water plants, gas plants, railways. etc.. have through political influences obtained valuable franchises, for which no ad- equate returns were given to the pec- pie. As consequence the revenues derived from such public utilities went into the pockets of private monopo- lies. instead Of into public improve ments and reduced taxation.
 ''The question of municipal owner ship of water supply is a problem of today It has been satisfactorily solved, by Q large number of cities here in the United States, as we'll as in Europe; 1t is as strenuously fought by the stockholders of these corpora tions.
 'Nos one will deny that these mo- nopolies in the hands of private cor poratlonS make enormous revenues. That is why they run them. It is ar gued against municipal ownership that vhiie private corporations can make enormous profits out of them, the public control and operation of these same monopolies would increase the expense Of the business; tina, municipal ownership will bring tAese water plants, etc, into politics, with all it's attendant drawbacks. The following items of interest will most effectually offset the above lame excuses:
 According to the census report of 1882 the annual charge for water in thirty cities owning their works, was s11.50 for an average daily corsump- tion of ninety gallons, while in four teen cities under private ownership the charge was $1742, or 51 per cent higher. The average cost of the works under city ownership was S21. 35 per capita, while under private own- ership, companies were paying divi- dends on $31.20, being 46 per cent

THE "SUNDORIFIC."
Showing How Much Frank Shirley Knows About Heat

Frank Shirley, chief of the Phoenix meteorological staff, was entertaining a stranger yesterday whom he was shaving, with facts and statistics re- garding the climate of the Salt River valley. The conversation grew out of a statement by the tenderfoot that he had never expected to suffer so much from heat this side of the grave. He had expected then to take things as they came. The present visitation was unexpected and he was not braced for it. He did not believe he could stand it five minutes longer. 'This weather isn't very warm," said MT. Shirley; i've call this pleasant here, Our real warm weather will begin a month later.' In the meantime the sweat poured from MT. Shirley's head and face upon the stranger, threaten ing to wash him out of the chair. ''No," continued MT. Shirley, i've don't mind such a day as this." "No dis comfort at all?" inquired the victim. Not a bit," said MT. Shirley, and he went on with the shaving "You must have taken a sundorific," said the stranger, lodging another wave of precipitation from Mr. Shirley's brow
 "What!' exclaimed MT. Shirley, let ting the razor fall. "A sundorific;

Regulations Issued Regarding Leaves
of Absence.

| Regulations Issued Regarding Leaves
of Absence.
| Regulations for the government of the
| clerks and employees of the State Depart
| ment in the matter of leaves OF absence,
under the provisions of the act approved
| March 10, 1898, have been issued, as fol-
| lows:
''(a). The head of the department may
grant thirty days annual leave, with pay.
"(b). An extension of leave beyond thirty
| days may be granted, in the discretion of
| the department, upon any one of the fol-
| lowing conditions:
Il. Where some member of the i'm
| mediate family of a clerk or employee is
afflicted with contagious disease and re-
quires the care and attendance OF such
| employe.
| '2. Where, through exposure to con-
| tagious disease, whether in his own family
or no, the employees presence in the de-
| partment would jeopardize the health of
| fellow clerks.
80. In exceptional and meritorious cases,
where clerk or employe is personally ill,
and where to limit the annual leave to
| thirty days in any one year would work
peculiar hardship.
Condition :; is made up of a group Of
| facts or circums tances which must COM
| bine to authorize the granting of leave on
account of personal illness. The case must
! be % exceptional. ca meritorious, and 60
| such that a denial OF the leave would work
not ordinary, but peculiar hardship. What
Will in this connection constitute an .ey-
ceptionaP case, a 'meritorious case and
peculiar hardship cannot be defined in any
general rule, but must depend upon the
exercise of reasonable discretion in the
consideration Of the circumstance
TO carry out the above provisions it is
hereby ordered that:
1.-The chief clerk is authorized to grant
| to each clerk or employee thirty days an
| nual leave, with pay, in any one year This
leave may be allowed needed or desired

The chief clerk shall carefully consider
every application for an extension of leave
with pay beyond thirty days, and, in the
exercise of sound discretion, shall certify
| to the Secretary such only as, in his opin-
ion ought to be granted. Such certificate

business y Ill not suffer by the absence
as important business or emergencies of a
serious nature"

PLANS FOR VOLUNTEERS.
VIII Have Thorough Training Before
Going to the Front.

The plan with respect to the state vol
unteers now is to keep them in their re-
spective camps for perhaps three or four
months, the monotcny being relieved by
sending them on long excursions for prac-
tice and to thoroughly familiarize them
with all possible fields of operation in this
country. The idea of concentrating them
at Washington. Richmond and Atlanta is
understood to have been abandoned until
such time as the regular army may be
moved to the front and the militia be
drawn en- to take their places. The pres
emf plans do not contemplate a large army
of invasion before later in the year, and
there is no need for the volunteers to be
concentrated until the regulars have NOV
ed.
Meanwhile it is understood that the vol
unteers will be given all the experience of
rough field service they want except facing
actual fire and bloodshed. 1t ls said that
they Will be sent en- expeditions outside their
states and put on skrmish duty and given
all sorts of service for practice, so that
when they are needed they will be thor
oughly seasoned. & s.
