Judge Streets decision Is embodied in the following paragraph of the iudg- ment based partially on the above figures:
 s1tollowlng out that conclusion there will be adjudged as community inter est in said stock forty seven and one hundred ard ninety-sevenths of 1900 shares. That by calculation will be discovered to be 1.169 shares and and thiriy-one and one thousandths of another share. and the division of that would be equal to 3S41a shares and a fraction over. The decree of the court will be for 5S5 shares of stock '
 The defendants contention is that all the property TOW owned by him had its source before he was married to EliaEeth Mason. When he came 10 Utah he was engaged in freighting and subsequently, in California. He came here in 1870 where be freighted mostly and invested money in block nineteen, the city water franchise and works and 9 four mill. later acquiring all of block nineteen.
 The evidence for the plaintiff terds to show that the defendant practically did not have a dollar until after his marriage. That the expense of his coming from England to Utah was de frayed by the Mormon church. The court decided with the plaintiff that there is community interest in the stock but the division to the plaintiff only amounted to the 5S5 shares
 Tn the judgment the court refused to decree with reference to profits on these shares of stock for the reason that there was no roof in showing div idends declared. This part of the de cree was left open so that if the stock should be transferred there could not arise 10 force benefciaries. the rule of res iudicata. if suit for profits should be brought in a court of equity.

SAN JUEN'S DAY ;3
Rough Riders are Permiitfed 10
 Celebrate Alone.

In one of his descriptions of the west Bret 'Hafte says that if the sun rises are as beautiful as the sunsets they must be truly charming. He was one of those men who never arose with the faint gray stre1ks of morn. Not so with Phoenix residents yeSter- day. San JUan'S day was fittinSly heralded by a sound which might cas- fly be mistaken for series Of cannon shots. Everybody thought the MeXi- cans were celebrating the.r famous day, but that was a mistake. San Juan's day is not as much an Ameri- cans day as it is a Mexican's. A num- Der of Rough Riders had secretly gathered south of town. and the n~isa heard was in celebration of the first land battle of the late war But not a flag was raised in Phoenix. The Rough Riders did not propose to tel people it was time to celebrate. San Juan's day on account of it's past a-s9c:a- tions was well remembered by them. When they discovered that they were the only persons n town inclined to commemorate the occasion, they With drew.
 Mexicans were more united in their celebration yesterday. Their pro gramme did not consist of firing

bombs. Their methods, though less

bombs. Their methods. though less warlike, are impressive.
 No person in the Salt River valley now can be made to believe that 1t does not rain invariably on San Juan $ day. There were no indications Of rain early in the morning and it is safe to say that the rain was brought on by the explosion of bombs south Of town. Other signs point to the fact that Providence intends that every body shall be bountifully supplied with water on this day As a result of a small freshet in the mountains the river noticeably increased it's volume yesterday morning and as the sun was setting the flow decreased. Today the river will look as though nothing had happened. The water mark will be the same as it has been before San Juan's day and the efforts of Provi- dence unavailing. It is doubtful If the Mexicans, the orig:nators of San Juna's day, ever use less water than on that occasion.

A GENEROUS RAIN STORM
Vegetation in inc Valley is Started
 on a New Growth.

\ refreshing and cleansing rain fell
 for an hour yesterday afternoon The
 dust has been washed from the trees,
 the buildings look fresh and bright
 after their drenching and the lawns
 are greener and prettier than they
 have been during the summer. The
 long drouth has been broken and the
 rain of yesterday is probably the be-
 ginnfng of the rainy season. Occa-
 sional rains can be looked for during the next two months. The weather which preceded the coming of the storm was uncomfortab ble owing to the presence of heavy clouds which added to the humidity of the atmos- phere. Among the ranchers the rain Was welcomed. but there were those who were not prepared for it and they of course grumble because Providence was not cODsiderate. The rain was general in the valley and extended over a considerable portion of south ern Ar,zona.
 The first drops of rain fell at i 20 in the afternoon. but the storm did not set in until , o'clock. 4 heavy down. pour continued until 5:45. and threat ening clouds fingered to the south in- dicating that the storm visited the country in that direction also.
 Weather Observer W. G. Burns says that the storm. although free from lightn.Dg. belonged to the class called thunder storms. The changing condi- tiops of the wind and fhe general ap- pearanee of the disturbance placed it in that class. When the storm began 4 F. thirty minutes progress of the storm the temperature fell to 76 degrees. When the rain stopped the mercury climbed up to % and with the added humidity from the dampness of the ground would have left if warmer than before the rain. were it not for the fact that a wind came up and kept the air cooled. The rainfall during the storm was a fraction over one fourth of an inch
 ''We are in the midst of what we term OUT seasons rains" said Observer Burns last evening. Arizona weather is an extremely hard article to handle. | This storm was q surprise to me and | came without any warning more than the presence of heavy clouds in the | skies for several days. | is my opin- | ion that we have entered on the season | Of frequent rains which come at this time every year. While the rainfall i was slight I think it will nrOve of | great benefit to the valley. The trees and vegetation has been thoroughly i cleaned. and as the leaves of the trees | and the outward growth of vegetation | are fI;n respiratory organs of those grOwths 3 good bathing must be hene | ticia1 to them and start everything growing with new life again"

THE GARDINER CASE
Jud0menf for the De fend-
 ant Rendered.
A Case In which a Great Deal Of Public Interest Has Been Awak- ened was Tried Before Judge Street Yesterday.

4 Judgment was handed down in
 the district court yesterday by Judge
 Street in the case of John NJ. Gardiner
 vs John J. Gardiner, which was
 begun about two years ago. It is
 favorable to the defendant The judg- ment is not compiled in a. usual manner but is a complete and interesting story of the parties concerned in the case dating back a number of years, the de- tails of which are made use of in the forming of the decision. Utmost attention was given by the persons in ghe court room during it's reading.
 The story begins with J. J. Gar diner at the age of tIventy-two years in England in 1862 when he married Elizabeth Mason. Fifteen days later he came to this country unaccom- panied by his wife.
 Tn 1869 he heard that his wife had died in England, and by the evidence the wife received a similar report about her husband. The defendant remarried in Phoenix in 1879. In 1882 he arranged his business here to en- ab1e him to return to England. When he arrived there he found Elizabeth Mason. his first wife. who presented to him his son whom he had never L. fore seen or known to exist. That sor ts the plaintiff in this action. The defendant explained the situation to his family in England. and soon brought his wife and son to Salt Lake Utah. When the defendant's second wife. Mrs. F. Q. Gardiner. learned the nature of her marriage with the de fendant, she obtained a divorce. The defendant made a satisfactory set tlemeIlt with her of S5OG0. Then the defendant brought Elizabeth Mason and the plaintiff to Phoenix This was in 1885. and for ten years he and Elizabeth lived here as man and wife. Eliza beth Mason died here in 1895, and her claims of property fell to the plaintiff
 In 1895 the defendant transferred his property into a corporation named the Farmers X Mechanics Manufacturing < Trading Company. He was joined in the transfer by his wife. There were 5000 shares of a par value of $10e. The defendant retained 1900 shares. The property turned over to the company represented S197.O00 of which the separate property was valued at S41,000. The community l according to the judgment, | was the franchises valued at $5.OOG i and the farm at $42,O00. The gist of

ANOTHER DEMURRER
An Attorney Argues Thai inc Com
 pIainf is Irregular.

The trial of the Japanese woman arrested near the block recently for being a prostitute and not living in the block, was set for 1 o'clock yes terday afternoon. She was not tried with the other five who were captured because of her sickness, and the same plea was made yesterday for con tinuance, which was granted. Her at torney, Henry Willis, is attempting to explain that the recorder has been dUpsd again. There is an ordinance, not rigidly enforced, which places a prostitute subject to fine if she "loiters or continues about a publtc place. No instances have yet been re- corded to which a prostitute mas been arrested for coming up town to make purchases or for other necessary pur- poses, and the law has only been put in force to cover the cases Of pr0sti- tutes without the reservation. Re- corder Jobs drew Tip the complaint agSinst the Jap. He did not use the words of the ordinance. which, by the way. is not required. but he expressed it that the woman had appeared in public place. MT. Willis yesterday demurred 10 the complaint, alleging that one may appear in public without "loitering or continuing about"

Oklahoma Has Fell the Breath
Ofthe "HOt Wind"
BUT ONCE IN HER HISTORY
Elmer Brown Tells What a Hot
Wind Really Is.

Guthrie. o. T.7Aug. sin refutatiou OF
the sensational shot wind stories OF SEN
sational correspondents, Elmer Brown, OF
the Tfmes-Jcurnal, who Is an authority
on the subject. says: The fact is that
no hot winds have struck Oklahoma this
year, no hot winds visited the territory
last year, either, nor the year previous.
The year before that, 1896. had halliday
of wind that was like hot blast from
a furnace. The year 1895, Notwithstanding
its drouthy condition until late in the
summer, had no hot wind. The FIVE pre-
ceeding summers were without hot winds.
Those who have experienced hot winds
have no difficulty in distinguishing them
from the ordinary hot weather, or the
reflection of heat from a dusty road or
street When You crawl around TO the
north Of the house or barn to escape the
hot blasts, when you fell more comfort
abe in the broiling sun than In the hot
draught then begin to think of hot winds.
When the grass cures as bright as new

away before the sun goes down, when the
apples bake to a crisp grown on the trees,
