 erse the Helvetia mining district, start | ing from point near the Cuprite | mines.
 TOO MUCH WATER.-N. M. Broad way, charged with flooding the roads
 on the south side of the river, made an
 explanation to the justice of the peace
 and the district attorney yesterday and
 was released upon payment of the costs
 of the case. His explanation was that
 his lateral was capable of carrying only
 l50 inches of water, but the canal agent
 has so adjusted the gate that 300 inches
 were attempting to crowd into the ditch
 and there was natural overflow.
 WINE INSTEAD OF WATER.-A
 singular mistake appeared in yester-
 days issue of this paper. The name of Diego C. Yrigoyen appeared as an of fender who was permitting the water of a ditch to pour into the roads. The gentleman at that time was taking un-
 to himself s wife, and little later was permitting wine to pour into the tum-
 blers of the glasses Of T number of
 guests who were celebrating his pill
 grimagc to the ranks of the benedicts
 The warrant was secured instead for
 N. M. Broadway.
