ONE DRUNK-Captain Hi McDon- aid. prefect of police at Five Points, delivered to the city jail last evening an ambulance full of common inebri- ates. There was only one but with the jag the wagon was well loaded. LUPA LED AND LANDED-Lupa Martinez had trouble with a lady friend and left-hooked her in a man ner that brought the police to the scene. Yesterday she was brought be- fore the recorder who with due solem- nifty announced that it would take sev- en simoleOns to buy back her reputa- tiOn as a peaceable and law abiding person.

 VERDE RIVER WATER USERS The farmers of this valley need not think that they have a monopoly on the water troubles of the world, though they have had more than they really wanted. The settlers along Beaver Creek which empties into the Verde have theG' own little perplexities of distribution which have brought them into court at Prescott. Judge Street of this city is attorney for some of them and goes to Prescott this morn ing on that business. He says the case will not be tried at this time but it is hoped that some sort of a tenn porary order may be issued for wa ter distribution pending the settle ment of the law suit.

Supper was brought him but he refused to eat Nor would he eat breakfast yesterday morning and when supper was served last night his appetite had still not arrived
 HI ELDRED kICKING-Hi Eldred was in town last night and kicking as usual but this time not at Jake Miller. His complaint now is that the far mers along the lower Grand who have finally got water are too careless in the use of it and are allowing their waste ditches to flood the roads. He says he is hauling grain to town (by proxy, having a good hired man), and his teams have to take a round about way to avoid the water.

But it is doing good fro others as the water now in
