defendants in Alpine irrigated from
the West Fork.
It is a great saving OF water to level
the lands, and gives far better results.
Plaintiffs have generally leveled and
defendants have not.
As late as 1866 all the bitches leading
water to Diamond and Dutch valleys
did not divert over 700 or 1000 inches
of water, and the rest flowed down
the West Fork.
Bob Trimmer worked for ID. X.
Jones building his fences in 1855.
G. e. Holbrook, disinterested wit
ness. testified that he had the Bass
man ranch in 1864 and there was very
little irrigation from the Olds ditch
then-twenty or thirty acres. Knows
that Snowshoe No. was built in the
fall of 1868 because he was on the
Baldwin ranch that year and passed
over the road where the ditch crosses
several times that year. That he went
to Monitor in 1862, and there was no
such ditch crossing that road then.
That in 1868 and 1861 there was only
the Snowshoe Thompson Ditch No.
crossing that road. He saw it late in
the fall of 1863 1t was three or four
feet wide and eighteen or twenty
inches deep then. Pages s23 to SAT,
24s. At page 773 he testifies that he
saw the work done on that ditch late
in the fall of 1868.
The Barber estate lands in Douglas
have always been irrigated in the same
manner as they were in 1896, and II.
F. Dangberg still uses dams in some
places, without any bitches, simply
cutting through the high bank.
Ben Palmer testifies that there was a
part of ditch where Snowshoe No.
now is that had been started before
1864, and that it was running uphill,
or in an impracticable place, as he
called it, and that he talked to Snow
shoe Thompson and others about put
ting it through, and that he had work
done on it in 1864.
As late as 1868 Ed. Trimmer, Jr., and
Snowshoe Thompson gave part OF
their lands away to Trimmer's father
to induce him to stay, giving away the
present Robert Trimmer lands. There
could not have been any valuable and
costly water right, such as Snowshoe
Thompson No. ditch would give at
that time.
d. B. Park knew the Trimmers in
Utah in ls53-54-55, and in 1863 Ed
Trimmer, Jr., was on the Johns place
and Robert on the Dudley place, and
they farmed a little and had little
stock. They We're then complaining
of the lack of water. They might have
had from ten to forty acres then. They
were talking about cutting ditcf
then.
There was nothing in sight but pc
tatoes and garden patches on the two
Trimmer places and Dudley and Stew
ems place. This takes in the Johns
Robert Trimmer and w. w. Harvey
Mr.. d. Park testified that he wa,
sure that Snowshoe Thompson No.
ditch did not cross the road in July oil
August, 1868. His father had located {
piece of land close by it, and that con
firmed him in his opinion.
Many plaintiffs have testified from
their experience, and r. T. Wilkersor
with the same kind of land as lies IN
Diamond Valley, that all of the de
PENDANTS can irrigate all their lands ii
six or seven days, and can go without
it for ten or twelve days, Wilkersor
testifying that his sandy land goes
without it longer than that.

DIED FROM DROWNING.

New York, Aug IA coroner's phy-
sician who performed an autopsy up
on the unidentified man found Tues
day in the Harlem river with cuts up
on his head, has announced that the
victim died from drowning and that
he found no evidence of violence and
no poison in the stomach Ihree ne
groes are being held by the police on
the confession of one that the man
was given whiskey containing snuff
and was then murdered and robbed.
The authorities are at a loss $ to
what shall be done, in view of the re-
port on the autopsy. The general
opinion is that the negro who con-
fessed told pure falsehood.

SIGHTED THE Enc MY.
Torpedo Boat Destroyer On AL
ept At Bar Harbop.

The Vessels are So Far Of Shore That
Their Movements Cannot Be Noted
The Identity OF the Graft Discovered
Has Not Been Made known on the
Kearsarge.
Bar Harbor, Me, Aug Information
was received here early to-day that a
torpedo boat destroyer in the war
maneuvers sighted the enemy off Bar
Harbor last night.
The news OF the discovery Of the
hostile feet which is under Rear Ad-
miral Sands, was brought here to-day
by the dispatch boat which came for
the mail. The vessels are all too far
off shore for their movements to be OBJ
served from land.
The enemys vessel was sighted by
torpedo boat destroyer while on pa
troll duty. Signals promptly announced
the discovery and the vessel under OBJ
servation turned about and made off.
Later the matter was reported to Rear
Admiral Barker, commanding the de-
Tending fleet, on board the Kearsarge.
The dispatch boat which brought the
news to-day could not give full particu-
lars of the incident.
The identity of the craft sighted, If
known on board the Kearsarge, had not
been learned by those on the dispatch
boat, but the fact that the movements
of the enemy had been so promptly
discovered was viewed with satisfac-
ton.
Booth Bay Harbor, Me, Aug THE
schooner Penobscot, Captain Johnson,
arrived to-day from the Georges banks,
reported that at 2 a. M, when. about
eight miles southeast of Seguln, large
vessel, evidently a warship, and
smaller craft, were sighted two miles
distant, going to the eastward
