Mr.. Leo Goldman returned to

Mr.. Leo Goldman returned to
Phoenix from an overland trip
to the SaCatCn Indian agency,
and tells the Phoenix Herald
that the Indians are suffering
greatly from lack of water. He
says their crops will be very
short this season and in all
probabilities the government
will be compelled to issue them
rations this winter to prevent
unusual suffering It seems to
be the general impression that
the new irrigation canals in the
upper ella valley have required
so much water this season that
it has made the supply exceed
ingly short at Sacaton. This
too, in addition to the fact that
there has been practically no
rain this season. Elk.

A bold, bad highwayman, who
knew all about the lay of the
land, and acted as though he had
some knowledge of the nerve of
the crap dealer, Tom Shines, en-
tered the Cabinet saloon about
two o clock, last Sa turday night
and grabbed the sack contain
ing the money, leisurely backed
out of the saloon, and to all ap-
pearanCes, took a balloon. There
were about fifteen men in the
saloon at the time and not any
of them knew the place had been
held-up, till Shines came too
shortly afterward, and said:
Boys, I've been held up!'
Shines had just counted the mon
ey and placed it in the sack, and
was posting his book, when the
fellow stepped i'll at the door,
picked up the sack, covering
Shines with gun, and as he
backed out, quietly said to the
few around that table, ''I'll kill
the fellow that tries to follow
me- . Nobody was in the slight
est danger, for none tried tofol-
low. There was S217 in the
sack. Williams News.
