ALPHA.
THEY RAN AWAY.

FInche's buss made the quickest trip on record from the depot to the stable Thursday evening as the Maricopa train was at the depot. They became frightened at it, and in some manrer got away, running straight down the street to the National bank where they turned the corner going through Main street to the stable where they turned in on the run and were caught by one of the stable hands. No damage result ed to the, buss but the the harness was broken in several places.
 An uninterested bystander was the worst sufferer. Dave Teeter was in his buggy driving a colt when he heard the team coming down the street he tried to turn out of the way but could rot move the colt quick enough. and the buss struck the buggy with full force almosc demolishing it. Dave was thrown out and for a long time it was feared that he was seriously injured. But fortunately he was not hurt and yesterday was all right again.

Of the confidence of their friends, they have. however, been forgiven upon promising faithfully never to do if again.
 The happy couple who thus deceived the unsuspectingp public were Otha Oiell and Miss Louise l.. Wasson. The groom is we'll known here and at the present holds a position with tho Tempe creamery and condensed milk factory. The bride though a complra> tive stranger here is we'll liked by all who know her. She recently came here from Topeka, Kansas.
 The couple will make their home fo' the present at the Stelzride home, hav- ing rented one half of the house.

WATER WORKS MEETING.

The special meeting of the city coun- cil Thursday night to consider the water works proposition of Engineer P. F.. Fuller was attended by all of the council at home and large number of the citizens and business men of the town. MT. Fuller made his statement and presented his franchise for con sideration. The franchise provides for the putting in of a plant as described in cur notes of yesterday, and the maintaining of the plant for the period of ten years at a yearly rental of S1,- S00.00 per annum, and at the end of the term the plant to be turned over to the city.
 Those present entered quite exten- sively into the discussion of the fran chise, which was not regarded as sat isfa ctory. A committee of councilmen, LeBaron Stapely, Messrs. J. L. War ing and A. J. Chandler were appointed to confer with MT. Fuller to arrange more equitable adjustment of the terms, and to frame a contract that would be more in harmony with the interests of the city. The committee were to meet the following day and to report to the special council meet ing to be held Friday night.

In such boilers it is frequently necessary to clean the pipes and the amount of work that is being done at the plant now makes it impos- sible for the steam to be shut of for a moment, and it even may be the. case that during the summer when the rush of ice is on that the work will require both.

NEW CURTAIN

The Mesa opera house now has a new curtain. The artist is J. W. Me Mutt of Mesa, who is spending the winter here. in fact has spent the last two winters here. MT. McNutt is a very fair artist. The water scene in the center of the curtain is a work of art and reflects credit on the artist. Surrounding the picture he has ar ranged eighteen advertising spaces, in which the leading firms of Mesa and some from our sister towns have their calling made known.
 MT. McNutt is essentially a sign painter and here his art shows up to splendid advantage. The lettering throughout is a work of art, and all together the curtain gives a newness and freshness to the opera house that is pleasing.

MADE WONDERFUL ESCAPE.
Prisoner in Underground Cell Unloeks
 Doors With Tin Keys.

The French police are searching for burglar, by name Vanderwegaete, who has made wonderful escape from Lilllie prison, where he was confined
 in an underground condemned cell. He had been placed there because he had boasted that the goal could not keep him. The massive door of the cell opened onto the corridor. at the end Cf which was another door. fitted with q safety lock.
 Locked up for the night on Monday, Vanderwegaete was not to be found on Tuesday morning. He had left couple of keys made of tin behind him as a memento. It is supposed that he made an impression of the lock of the cell with the bread given to him. With some more bread he made a mold in which he cast a key out of a tin cup, the metal being melted on his stove. The same night he opened his door, took a bread crumb impression of the corridor lock, made another key and soon found himself outside the cor ridor From a cupboard he abstracted sheet and broom handle, which he tied together and made his way into the prison yard.
 After scaling the '~terior wall, which is nine feet high, he climbed up an- other wall by waterspout, and then dropped fifteen feet with the aid of a l blanket which he had taken from his cell. Breaking. into a tailor establish ment close by he exchanged his prison
 uniform for a fashtonable suit and | overcoat,, and took S20 from the till and some cigarettes. He has not been heard of since.-St. James Gazette.

Senseless chatter is the affiction of the commonplace. It is not governed by sex. but rather impartially divided be- tween men and women no matter what the former say to the contrary.
 It must be owned that good takers are a source of pleasure and no func- ton is quite complete without them. hut unfortunately the world is full Of chatterers who have no vital knowledge tn impart; nor any interesting topic to discuss. and we are wearied with o::t really understanding the case.
