 THE SIMMS ESTATE-Probate Judge Phillips yesterday appointed J. w. Crenshaw administrator of the estate of the late James T. Simms. This is an outcome of the proceedings instituted some time ago for the re- moval of Charles F. Simms and Geo. T. Brosius from the eXecutorship of the estate to which they had been ap- pointed by the will. The former is the son of the testator and the latter the sOn-in-law. It was alleged in the ap-
 plication that both the executors were now non residents of the territory. The application was made by N. A. Nor ford a creditor of the estate and by
 Julia Lount administratrix of the
 estate of Hannah Simms who recently
 died in Baltimore In the application
 it was asked that W. T. Smith be ap- pointed administrator No return
 having been made to the citation there
 was nothing for the court to do but
 declare the executorship vacant and
 then with the consent of both parties
 Captain Crenshaw was appointed to the admin5stratorship.
 APPROPRIATIONS cANAL-The farmers generally will be glad to know that water has been turned into the Appropriations canal and is now run ming through the head for a distance of six or seven miles At present it is discharged through the waste way
 about four miles east of Phoenix at l George Bernard's place. The officers of the canal say that much good may come from this even though the canal
 is yet uncompleted, as the dam at the head of the Salt River Valley and Mar icopa canals has probably suffered damage from the present raise in the river. The board of directors contem- ] plate further extension and improve ments at an early date They expect 1 that this water way, having been or ganized in conformity with the plan | approved by the government for CO., ] operation in distribution of reservoir and pumped water, will be endorsed as
 a part O. the comprehensive canal sys- tenn to be built in connection with the ] Roosevelt reservoir. Also, to conserve
 more flood water and develop under ground water. from part of this com pany's plan. which if successful will be 1 of great gain to the valley.
