A Truce of Ten Days-City Breaks
 Into Bennett Addition.

There was a very busy session Of dis trict court yesterday. Soon after con vening the grand jury submitted a re- port containing two indictments against John Heron. who in his brief residence in this country has turned out to be an exceedingly variegated criminal One of the indictments against him was for the burglary Of Cooks barber snop and then it will be remembered that he was the agent of the conspiracy formed fer the pur- pose Of breaking out of the county jail. John Faher, who had been held to the grand jury for taking a shot st a Mexican. who he believed had alien ated the affections of his wife, was discharged. So also was Joaouin Muri- etta, who had been held for burglary.
 In the case of Guy Bonnet vs. the City of Phoenix to restrain the officers Of the city from the sale of property in the city for the collection of taxes, a temporary injunction granted the plaintiff was dissolved. At the time the addition was taken into the city.
 while the case to compel it to come in was pending in the court. q stipulation was entered into between the city md tine residents of the addition according to the terms of which property owners of the city would have to pay no taxes for . period of two years. It was agreed on the other hand that the ad- dition would ask for the expenditure of no public money in that part of the town during the same period. The ad- dition has kept it's part of the agree ment. but the city at the first oppor- tunity proceeded to the assessment and collection of taxes there the same as it did everywhere else. It was contend ed by the city that the stipulation was of no effect, for there could be no ar engagement by which any part of a municipality could be exempt from tax atiOn. This view was very naturally sustained by the court and the injunc-
 ton was dissolved.
 The whole of the afternoon was taken up with the injunction cases of the
 Arizona Water company against per sons living under the various canals tc prevent them from the cutting of the company's head gates to get water, to which il was alleged they had no right since they were not owners of water 1 rights The greater part Of the argu- ! ment was devoted to a cross complaint
 by which the defendants sought tc have all canal companies and water
 users in the valley made parties to the
 suit for the termination of the question ! Of prior rights. At the hour of ad- | journment the court had not been
 shown precisely how this could be done
 and 1t was ordered that the status ex- 1 istin% before the conditions arose out
 of which this controversy grew could
 be restored and should be restored and
 should exist for ten days. This aI-
 engagement was satisfactory to both sides.

generally regarded as a modest esti- mate of the value of his estate.''
 This indeed seems to be q very mod est estimate of the fortune of a man, in these days of multimillionaires who is said to have worked so much by the power of wealth. but it must be re- membered that Rhodes wielded the in fluence Qf the wealth of his associates. In every concern in which he was in terested he seemed to be the dominant factor, whether his associates were wealthier than himself or not. Barney Barnato said Rhodes was a great man, because he beat me at my own game. New York Sun.

It was, of course, from the De Beers Consolidated mines that from first to last he derived the bulk of his income and his fortune. and what this meant will be realized when it is mentioned that for last year, apart from the diVi- dends received on his holding of shares, the sum of f316,593 was paid to the three remaining life governors, of whom Mr Rhodes was one. the other two being Julius Wernher and Alfred Belt Thus his income as q life Govei'- nor was over f105, eco for 1900-'01, and for the current year, under the new agreement by which the diamond syn dicate shares it's profits with the De Beers company, it would probably have been a still larger sum.
 The same writer calculates. on q dis tinctly conservative basis, that Rhodess holdings in De Beers alone must be $1O,000,0G0. Looking at other interests, he says: Ut is idle work guessing at the fortune of a man with such widely-spread interests as those of the late MT. Cecil Rhodes, for he had very extensive landed property in the Cape Colony and elsewhere, as well as his shareholdings. But f3000,00 Is

NOT A SPECULATOR.

NOI 4 SBECOLAlOR.
 Edward Dicey tells a story of Rhodes and bet at the Kimberley races in the following words:
 "I remember coming back with him from the races, at which Sir Thomas upington. then attorney general of the Cape Colony, acted as judge, and his remarEing to me that he had lost f1OO on bet he had made, and adding:
 I do not care for money, but I hate losing it.
 This remark seems to me to illus trate curiously his personal attitude toward all financial operations. Power Is what he valued: and he was far too shreWd man not to see that in our days money ard power are identical. on the other hand, I never knew a man to whom mere money loss seemed T matter of more absolute indifference. so long as the loss was incurred for an object which. tc his mind, seemed ade- quate to justify the outlay.''
 "A Financier," writing in the Daily Telegraph, remarks that Rhodes was distinctly not a market speculator. and on the rare occasions When he ad- dressed public meetings in the city he almost always warned his audiences

POe'S Last Recitation
in City Of Richmond

"I became acquainted with Mr.. Poe
during his last visit to Richmond, in
1S49, at Duncan Lodge, the home of
our mutual friend, Mrs. Jane Macken-
zie, and of Poe's sister, Rosalie,' says
DR.. John F. Carter, in paper in Lip
pincott's Magazine for November. on
the American poets last night in Rich
mond.
1T was at Mrs. Mackenzie's that |
first heard Poe recite, at her request,
The Raven and 'Annab-l Lee,' only
the family being present. From an
unusually lively mood he lapsed at
once into a manner. expression and
tone of voice OF gloomy and almost
weird solemnity, gazing as if on some
thing invisible to others, and never
changing his position until the recita-
uoE was concluded. 1t happened that
he had just before requested of Mrs.
Mackenzie the loan of sum of money
which request she was for the time
unable to comply with, and she now
said to him. Edgar. what do you think
OF giving a public recital of those
poems? 1t would probably prove a
financial success The result was
that about a week later there ap-
peared in the city papers a notice that
on a certain evening the poet would
give a recitation of his own two favor
