 has secured an engine and an S5-horsc power boiler and has let q contract for three wells to be sunk 250 feet if neces- sary cn his Kyrene property. He eX- poets to find the surface vein of water within ten feet. but proposes to sink for a deeper vein in the belief that if a strong flow is encountered he will have water from great depth to within ten feet of the surface. It is known that the surface vein is not deep as his
 neighbors are now watering stock from wells. Should he chance to encounter artesfan water he will not get mad about it. He hopes to develop a sup ply in one way or another that will furnish water for four sections.
 i All SAM IN COURT.-Ah sam found ! himself in court yesterday facing d rather serious charge, but worked out of il ali right either by straight hones-
 ty or a good Chinese story well told and i sworn to- l.. C. Phillips in the early morning left vest hanging in q small building in a Jefferson street corral, next door to the Chinaman's place. Ah Sam found the vest and. SO he says, thought some enc had lost it. lie took it to his house and hung it up. When MT Phillips went after the vest and could not find it he made a search Of the Chinaman's place. He found it there but q purse was missing from it. There were valuable papers in the purse. but no money. MT. Phillips talked pocketbook to the Chinamen in the house but they could not under stand him. Then he got a warrant and had it served on An Sam who was not at home. He went home at once and got the purse off shelf, restoring it to the owner. The explanation was that he took the purse out of the vest for safe keeping and the other China men knew nothing about it. He paid the costs of the case and was dis charged.
 NEWS FROM THE HILLS.-T. G. Greenhaw came i'll yesterday from Cram mountain where he has been working for some time. He says oper- aticns on that property are to be re- sumed by w. Gr. Gates with a good fierce of men in about three weeks. There is every indication, he says. that a big ore body will be encountered when the tunnel is run a little deeper. At least the surface shoWings warrant that belief. The Red Rover mine. he
 says. is being worked by Messrs. Sparks and Nolan who came here last winter from Alaska. They are putting in some new machinery and have great confidence in the value Of the property. A new wagon road has been construct ed direct from Phoenix to the Red Rover. making s great saving in dis tance. Last Sunday morning about six o'clock it began raining in that sec
 ton and rained continuously until twelve o'clock that night, I steady dovnpour for eighteen hours. From the appearance of the heavens he thinks it rained hard on Lime Creek Monday night. Cattle in that section
 are picking up already and the grass, that was fast drying lip. is beginning to lock green again. The Cartwright
 brothers are doing lots of branding and their cattle are looking well. About fourteen men are engaged in rOdeo work. and ten Of them are enjoying !
