tice Johnstone's court yesterday for
! indecent exposure and was saved
money. He was arrested the night be
fore by Captain Hy Mcdonald and
was taken to the county Jail. When he
was searched Deputy Sheriff Standard
said that he had money in more pockets
than any man he had ever searched,
and he had rolled a good many men in
an official capacity. Stewart had cash
in eight pockets, and altogether he had
only $26.35. When they used to arrest
John Bender they hardly ever found
less than $1,000, and it was usually all
in one pocket. If Stewart had been let
alone until yesterday morning he would
not have had a cent in any pocket. So
he is ahead more than $16, to say Moth
ing of his lodging and his breakfast.

ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT
Davis Alverde was married yesterday
and made the most of his preparations
for that happy event on the spur of the
moment. He called on Justice John
stone and employed him to get the Ii
cense and tie the knot. 1t transpired
that Alverde did not know the brides
name and was not quite sure where she
lived. He hurried away, collected the
necessary data ard returned. The Ii
cense was obtained and the marriage
took place yesterday afternoon. 1t
quite frequently happens that bride
grOoms do not know or have forgotten
the Christian names of their future
wives. Sometimes they know the
name, but do not know how to spell
it, and invariably they do not know
the age of the bride, but for that mat
ter neither does anybody else except
the bride herself. her parents and the
family bible. 1t is sufficient to know,
however. that she is old enough to be
her own boss.
VALLEY ORANGES. - The second
carload of oranges to leave the valley
this season will be shipped by Walter
Hill this morning. By next week Mr..
Hill expects to be able to ship a car
day. 1t has been observed that the
valley oranges are sweeter this year
than usual. Even the green oranges.
that is, those in a proper condition for
shipment, are sweeter than California
oranges, which have to be left to ripen
in the sunshine to take on sweetness. a
gentleman from Los Angeles who has
eaten no oranges for some years on
account of their tendency to put an
edge on his teeth, was persuaded yes
terday to taste a valley orange which
was not yet fully colored. He said it
was the most pleasant he had ever
tasted and that he could eat it without
the inconvenience of which he had
hitherto complained.
PRICE OF CLOTHING. "A Phoenix
newspaper yesterday cast a reflection
on the clothing merchants of this city
yesterday by the statement that out
side clothing companies would not be
so well patronized if citizens could buy
clothing at home at reasonable prices.
This statement is not borne out by the
facts, as every one knows who has
bought clothing in Phoenix and else
where. A clothing dealer said yester-
day that Phoenix has been known for
years as one of the worst clothing
towns in the United States. Years ago
when persons from the east were pain
fully surprised by high prices in al
most every other line of merchandise
they were again more pleasantly sur
prised by the discovery that clothing
was no higher than in the east. There
has always been an active competition
in this particular line.
WATER COMPANY RULE RE-
NISED. One of the rules of the
Phoenix Water company underwent at
least a temporary revision yesterday.
though it may be restored today. That
guson has been selected as grand lodge
lecturer for the I. o. G.. T. in this part
Of Arizona and will fill appointments
