ABOUT WATER RIGHTS.
How the Government Will Distribute Water
Under New System.

The Secretary of the Interior
has decided that certificates of
water rights, under government
irrigation systems, must be issued
by the local land offices, to which
application must be made. Blank
application forms are being pre-
pared and will soon be sent to the
land office at Carson City.
There are certain requirements
of the law and departmental reg
ulations to which private land
owners must conform in order to
qualify as a holder of water right.
Under the law one person can
buy water for only 100 acres of
land. In other projects now under
construction existing water rights
have been assigned to the govern
ment without consideration, but
under the Truckee-Carson system
the present water rights are more
valuable, and the government
gives to those who wish water
from the system water right for
acreage actually irrigated in ex-
change for the existing water
right. The owner can purchase
water for an additional 100 acres.
If a person has more land than his
irrigated land plus 100 acres
amounts to, he must, before his ap-
plication is approved, give assur-
ances, in such form as will be ac-
ceptable to the Department, that
he will sell his surplus land at a
reasonable price to persons quail
fed to become water-right
holder.

Famous Philippine Regi-
ment Stationed Near
Canada Loses Val
liable Relics.
STOLEN FROM The NESS HALL
They Are Found in the Poss
session Of q Respscta bic
Woman Of This City
Whom the Thief
Deceived

Chief of Police Murphy recently re-
ceived letter from Lieutenant William
E. Mills, of the famous Ninth U. 5.
Infantry, now stationed at the Madison.
Barracks ON the Canadian frontier, stat
ing that be had reason to believe that
two bolos and Philippine flag which
had been stslen from the regiments >
mess hall, would be found in certain
house in this city. The letter stated
that the regiment some time ago held a
social function in the mess hall, and
among the decorations of the walls were
the missing two bolos and the Philippine
flag, which were Philippine trophies,
priced highly by the regiment.
Lieutenant Mills, in his letter, said he
believed a certain soldier who recently
visited this city was the thief and that
he had given the trophies to certain
woman who lives here. The house in
question was visited and the missing
trophies found. AS the woman is very
respectable and declares she thought the
soldier who gave them to her was honest
and that the trophies were really his,
Chief Murphy refused to divulge her
name. The bolos are dangerous looking
long knives, something like the Cuban
machettes, and are sheathed in wood
and brass. They are used both for
fighting and for cutting away UNDER
brush. The two in question are well
worn away through constant sharpening
An three trophies will be returned to the
regiment.

SALOON RAIDED
Arrests Made in Pindo's
Place But Judge Hig-
GINS Discharged Pris-
oners for Insuffi-
cient Evidence.

A letter was received by Chief of Po-
lice Murphy from lady some days ago,
informing him that her husband was in
the habit of spending his Sunday even
ings gambling in the saloon of Michael
Pindo, No. 344 First street, Last night
the Chief had Inspector Archibold detail
Detectives Hottie and Larkins to watch
the saloon, and if liquors were exposed
to view for sale with bartender in
waiting, or card playing going on, = r
rest all present. The detectives found
the bartender in his place, and several
men drinking beer and playing cards at
a table. Proprietor Pindo and four men
were arrested
The charge against the proprietor was
that of selling liquor on Sunday. The
four other men were charged with play
ing cards on Sunday under the vice and
immortality act. They were:-John Fene-
man. No. 344 First street; Anthony
Frana, No. 344 First street; Patrick
Jrona, No, 176 Sixth street, and John
sanir, of No. 176 Sixth street The two
first named lived in the same house with
the proprietor.
All FIVE were arraigned this morning
before Police Justice Frank Higgins. He
said the evidence as presented was not
sufficient to warrant him in holding the
men, and he let them go.
Chief Murphy was displeased. He re
lated to the Justice the circumstances
that led up to the arrest, and cited the
vice and immortality act. He declared
that under the same circumstances he
would raid the saloon again.
