A CANAL ENrERPRIsE
Gilbert D. Gray Has Purchased the
 Orange Belt Property.

A recent deal has been made which gives promise of resulting in the devel- opment of a large acreage in the west ern part of the valley. Some eight or ten years ago the St. Johns canal was sold to the Orange Belt Canal O.. and considerable work was done on the ditch. But for scme reason the enter prise was abandoned, as many good things are on account of the lack of funds or the changing of plans by those interested.
 A week or ten days ago Mir. G. b. Gray bought the canal, dams, water rights. laterals, etc, and said yester- day that he was figuring with parties who talk of buying it and extending 1t across the Agua Fria westward to the Hassayampa river north of Buckeye. MT. Gray says that If he does not dis pose of the property he will himself proceed in the work of extension and repairing. as he is well satisfied 1t is a good investment.
 The ditch is one of the oldest in the valley and runs from point on the riv- er twelve miles below Phoenix, north westerly to the Agua Fria It passes through a rich and fertile region. and beyond the Agua Fria the section through which it may be made to run Is believed to contain some Of the rich est orange land in the valley.

tofore been his friends. to now con- front him as his greatest accusers. He has led rather rapid life of late, and it is said, has gambled a great deal. even to the extent of arousng the suspicious of his friends. But conf dence in him and his bold front stayed the hand of investigation till 1t was too late.
 Julian Bojorques, an account of whose arrest on the charge of stealing a horse from Waldo Christy, was pub lished Sunday morning, was arraiSned and by agreement his examination was entered upon at once. No testimony was offered on the part of the terri tory, as it was believed that the exam ination would be only formal affair and that Joe Wilson was the real culprit. For the defense MT. T. $. Far ris testified that the defendant worked for him last January, that the horse in question, stolen on the 4th, was brought to his ranch on the 9th of January. by a Mexican giving the name of Jesus Lays. pasture bill accumulated and some time in Febru- ary Farris left home. leaving Bojorques in charge of the place. and instructing him to hold the horse for the bill. Later Layzs came for the horse and Julian offered to pay the pasture bill, give him an old horse and $6 boot and keep the Christy horse. The trade was made.
 Iayzs was identified in the county jail by Farris and by Julian Bojorques and Mrs. Bojorques. the Mexican couple, saying he was also known as Joe Wilson. Bojorques was discharged and Wilson will be arrested. If he does not go to Yuma on the case he is now held for he can hardly get away from this second charge.
 Richard Lazarus examination on the charge of an attempt to kill Ben Stef- fen, was further continued to Tuesday afternoon, for the reason that his mental condition was such as to make his appearance yesterday useless. In the meantime a complaint has been made in the probate court charging him with insanity and the criminal charge against him will probably be dismissed.
 Joaquin. the old Indian who is all ways uIlndppy " nNh Sop'i, ""' brought in on the charge of drunk and dlsorderly and fined s10 and in default of payment, went to jail where he could be surrounded by congenial spirits
 Mrs. Maria Brechtel, nee Gilmore. was also accused of being drunk and disturbing the peace. She pleaded guilty and was fined $5 The judge told her that he would make it light, as it was her first appearance in his court but he knew her record and the next offense might cost her $500. She thanked him profusely, remarked that she admired the surroundings and that he was fine 'gintleman," She also announced that, barring one little drink to settle her nerves, she would never take another as long as she lives. She paid her fine and was released.

TERRITORY vS ED. BUTT JR.
Justice Burnett Has Lively Day in
 Criminal Business.

Yesterday was q busy day with Jus tice Burnett andsmatters of more than unusal importance were under consid- eration. The case. that interests the greatest number of people was that of the Territory versus Ed Butt, Jr. who was arrested Saturday on the charge of embedding sS1 from the grand lodge of the Knights of Pythas of this Jurisdiction. As has been pre- viously announced, his arraignment was set for yesterday morning and he was released on a bond of $500. He ap- peared in court yesterday morning and his hearing was set for Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock. The bond given on Saturday was allowed to stand till the hearing.
 Meanwhile Herbert Drachman, as grand commander. and other officials of the order were busy going over Mir. Butts books and a shortage was dis covered of over S2.00O. Mir. Drachman late in the afternoon swore to another complaint charging him with the em- bezzlement of $500. The amount in the complaint was placed below the figures found. in order to make the charge easy of proof and to guard against any possible errors that might have been made in the nasty inspec- ton of the books.
 A warrant was issued and shortly before susdown Mir. Butt was again brought before the magistrate and his bail on the second charge fixed at S3.000. It was not learned last night whether or not he had given the bond
 The charges against him have as- sumed most serious aspect and noth- ing can be said in mitigation of such offenses. Nevertheless 1t is matter of universal regret that he has al- lowed himself to be drawn into such a network of misdeeds, and not the least distressing feature. is the fact that duty forces those who have here
