PUMPING LARGE FLOW
Electric Light Power Being Used Dur
 ing Daytime to Pump Water.

The plan Of pumping water with the power from the electric light works is now being successfully carried into eX- ecutiCn and stream of 15O inches is being pumped constantly for twelve hours each day. The well is located rear the electric light works and it promises to prove a bonanza equally as good as a gold mine.
 The well has a depth of 200 feet. At a depth of about 100 feet a big body Of water was encountered and though the pump has been working for several days the water keeps a 65-foot level and the pumping has not caused it to lower more than a few inches.
 The plan of pumping the water with the power from the electric light plant was originated by T. W. Pemberton, president of the company. MT. Penn

berton figured that the same machin- cry which furnished power during the night. for lighting the city could be successfully used to pump water dur the day and it seems that his stand has been well taken. The flow of wa ter which was encountered was be- yond the expectations of even the most sanguine and the operations of the past few days have led to the belief that the flow will remain constant at least for a great many years to come.
 The water has been sold by Mir. Pemberton to Cope &S Tait, who own a large tract of land south of the city. What water they do not need for their own use they are selling to other property owners and a large area is being irrigated with the pumped water.
 Another well outfit which promises big results is that of the Bartlett Heard Land & Water company. The company has six large wells located near Tempe. Machinery is being in stalled capable of pumping 4,500 gal Ions of water a minute, he equivalent of a flow of 360 inches. The pumped water the company will use to supple ment the Tempe water which they now own, and with the increased sup ply they propose to brir a large acre age under cultivation.

AN ARIZONA NINE OWNER
Who Has Been Heard of in Other
 Parts of the World.

MT. William Buckingham represent ing Fairbanks Morse & Co, came in yesterday morning from the south. He has lately been about Clifton and Globe. He says there is a period of Quietness in the outlying mining dis triCts though there is considerable activity about the larger camps.
 There is good deal going on at the old Dominion at Globe and there is promise of early bgiskness at Clifton in consequence of the conclusion of tho consolidation Of the New England and the Clifton Consolidated. The properties of these companies lie ad- joining on the san Francisco river, about four miles north of Clifton. They are so situated that neither can be proftably operated independently Of the other In order to get out of one tunnels have to be constructed through the other or roads built over it. The business of consolidation was begun last fall and had been talked about q long time before that. It was in the hands of John Hays Hammond. 0y whom the details have been completed and his assistant MT. Berger will shortly visit Clifton.
 Valuable deposits have lately been discovered in both properties and it is thought that the new corporation will become one>of the greatest in the west. The principal owners of the New Eng land property is Edward II. Strobel of Boston. who has been interested in this territory for several years. Mir Strobel has other things on his hands. He is Bemis professor of international law of the Harvard law school and he is also general advisor of the government of Siam under two-year contract dating from 19n2 He has heen en-

Two years later he was made third assistant secretary of state He was afterward minister to Ecuador and later minister to Chile.
