Perhaps Jones was fated to be the
man who would deal the dragon to his
death blow-Jones, who carried upon
his person the remarkable system
whereby persistent player must al
ways win three times out of four, and
that will break any bank.
Down upon the silvery strand, en-
joying a cigar and admiring the pic
turesque scene, our two friends stroll
ed in the evening. -s .r.....E..
Jones talked of the count and his
ally.
Would Villebois now give up his
packet which promised untold riches
to it's owner. .a..... .-g +..s 4.
Did his well-known record as trav-
eler give any reason to believe that he
ever gave up any object upon which
his heart was really set?
Jones reached this conclusion, but
gave no indication of alarm-he had
taken his stand upon this affair and
was ready to hold up his end of the
game, no matter what prevailed
against him.
The beauty of the night and their
desire for exercise after being cooped
up in the cars so long a time induced
the two friends to saunter quite dis
lance.
A band was playing back in the re-
gion from whence they had come. and
the music reached their ears, mellow
ed by distance.
Away from the crowd Of fashion
ables, who promenaded under the cleo
trio lights, where the palm trees threw
their mystic shade upon the white
strand-aWay from the noise and con-
fusion attendant upon a watering
place, they could smoke and chat in
comfort, as men Of their stamp delight
to do.
AS to the possibility of danger Turk
ing near, the thought had not occurred
to them-brave men are sometimes
reckless: at least, they do not always
keep on the lookout for hidden peril.
Even Jones, cautious by nature,
could not suspect that the count would
have set wires in motion so soon after
his arrival. 15s.

Promising irrigation District.

One of the most promising irrigation districts in this southwest country is up in the neighborhood of Ehrenberg. this county. The water is tsken from the Colorado river opposite Ehrenberg and not far from the Hodges Bothers' cattle ranch. The original promoter of this enterprise was Mr. A. ". Mor- ris, who had n13cf to do with the con struction of the LMdy canal in this valley. 4 great deal Of land has been taken up under the proposed canal in the Ehrenberg district, by California and Arizona people, and there is plenty of land there yet subject to homestead. The company building this canal is interested principally in covering the fertile lands of the Blythe estate, lo- cated across the river from Ehrenberg, but there will be available water for other thousands of acres of just as good land belonging to the government, and many are taking advantage of the op- portunity to secure land which gill shortly become very valuable.

Another Victim of the Desert.

J. A. Adams. former resident of Arizona and a grandson of Old John Brown, whose ''soul goes marching on, T" wandered away from bis camp cn the Colorado desert May 19th and per ished for want of water. The story of his disappearance is graphically told by Charley Fay, enc Of the party, as follows:
 "We were out Gn the desert pros pecting for gold" said Fay. An In, dian whom we had employed to show us where to find water On the desert caught his foot in the stirrup while mounting his horse and fell on his back. The horse started to run, dragging the Indian by che foot. As the ground was covered by jagged rocks, the In- dian would have been killed; had net Adams run up and seized the horse by the bit. The animal, wild with fright. reared and plunged. Adams was twice thrown upon the rocks and once the hCrse's hoofs struck him, but he still gripped the bit until MT. Lamere and 1 succeeded in releasing the Indian.
 After the danger was over Adams sat down upon a rock and began laugh ing, and when asked if he was hurt, he replied: Oh, no; I'm only a little tired, but guess you'll have to help me set this arm.' We then started fer Yuma, Adams riding some twenty-five miles that afternoon and never once complaining, though we could see by his drawn features that he was suffer- ing intense pain.
 At dusk we camped fer the night and within an hour the injured man was deliricus and ravin9 like a maniac, Some time during the night he left camp. As soCn as we discovered that he had gene we made every effort to find him. but could not do much until daylight, when we found his tracks in the sand. We followed the tracks all that day and until about o'clock the next day, when we came to d bard, rocky place at the feet of some rock hills. Here we lest the trail, ard try as we might we could not find it again.
 For three days we searched the hills, but not trace of the man could we discover. though we we'll knew that somewhere within a radius of twenty or thirty miles lay the body of one of the bravest men that ever lost his life in that great death-trap-the Colorado desert; :;

Will Try for Artesian Water

In several different portions of the territory efforts are being made to find arteSian water, and in several instances permanent gushers have resulted. At Tucson a good flowing we'll has been obtained with a depth of only fifteen feet. It seems to be permanent, and a series of wells will be sunk in the same locality, the object being to get reliable water supply for irrigation pur- poses. In Graham county sev- eral flowing wells have been sunk, and the efforts to develop more are going on with fine pros poets of success. In fact, hard ly week passes that d new gusher is not reported from some section of the territory, and sometimes more than one. The ''artesian water era" seems to have been inaugurated in Arizo- ma and not be behind the times, Yuma has about decided to get into the swim. Negotiations are under way with parties at Indio with a well-boring outfit, and it is most likely that an ex- perimental well will be sunk in the Yuma valley near town. Consi lering the great benefits that would result from an ample artesian water supply, the busi- ness men and property owners of this city can well afford to contribute literally to the enter prise. Let the trial be made, by all means.

United States Marshal McCord came down from Phoenix Monday, bringing Charles w. Pugh, who is under sen tence Cf two years for padding his ex- pense account while acting as govern ment stock census enumeratcr Mr. Pugh was appointed enumerator for the district comprising 8 portion Cf Arizona, New Mexico and California. In the course of his official work in Arizona he hired livery team at Globe to 20 some distance to stock ranch, and had the liveryman sign a receipt in blank. The livery bill was eight dollars, but when the voucher reached Washington it called for sixty eight dollars. This is what landed Mr. Pugh in the territorial prison as a government convict. His trial was held before Judge Doan, at Florence, last week, when he was convicted, and sentenced as already stated. Charles w. Pugh is very well known through out the territory, being the editor and proprietor of the Southwestern Stock man, published at Phoenix, and is, we believe, the first newspaper man and printer to be incarcerated in the terri tOrial prison.

Board of Regents Met and Adopted Res
ol,nion Dismissing Ament-

Board of Regents Met aud Adopted Res
oIIftion Dismissing Ament-
EDMOND: James f. Ament has been
removed as president of the Alva nor
NAL school. At a meeting of the board
of education for normal schools here, II
resolution was adopted by a unanimous
vote dismissing President Ament from
further service from this date. The
action of the board is intended to secure
a more harmonious situation at the nor
NAL school and, in the opinion of the
members, the only method by which
this could be reached was by the plac-
ing of a new man at the head of the
institution. T. w. Conway, of Sterling,
Kan, will probably be Amcnt's success
sor, although no definite decision was
reached.
There has been serious friction at the
Alva normal for many months and
numerous charges have been filed
against President Ament When Mr..
Ferguson became governor he announc-
ed that Ament must go-not necessarily
because of the charges against him, but
because it was believed that there was
no other way to restore harmony at
Alva. The students have stood by
President Ament almost to the last one
and the people of Alva are generally
with him. The strongest kind of pres
sure has been brought TO bear to keep
President Ament in office, but it has
failed.
