 BROUGHT HOME THE PROOF MT. and Mrs. R. J. Dobbs returned to | the city yesterday morning from Cali fornia. where they have been spending l the past six weeks on a vacation trip | Both of them give indications of hay ing enjoyed the trip, if the acquiring of very heavy coat of tan is any indica- tiOn. Much of the time since leaving Phoenix MT. Dobbs spent in fishing and the stories he tells of the catches he has to his credit indicate that he should be a fisherman in. place of the head and shoulders of a transfer com pany. To back up his stories. he
 brings home several pictures which. if they are not ''phOney," certainly verify
 the claims he makes.
 A CLOUDBURST THE CAUSE-Dr.
 J. C. Norton yesterday morning re-
 turned to the city from southern Cali fornia. where he had been spending several weeks with his family who are there for the summer. Mrs. Norton
 and children will remain at Long
 Beach for the balance of the summer.
 En route home pr. Norton stopped at
 Yuma, on business of the sanitary board He also had. an opportunity to
 view the Salton sea and learned some
 thing of the work being done toward changing the course of the Colorado
 river and stopping the water running into the sink. The recent interference
 with traffic on the main line. he says,
 was not due to the Salton sea, but to washouts of the main line track by water from cloudbursts in the noun tains above the track. In all. thirty six breaks occurred, varying in width from three feet to fifty three feet.
 MITCHELL PROBABLE SUCCES- SOR-Harry w. Heap returned to Phoenix yesterday afternoon from Prescott, where he had been for sev- eraI days with his wife and children, Mr. Heap verified the story published several days ago that he had resigned as general manager of the Phoenix l Water company and of the Phoenix ] Street Railway company The resig- nation was forwarded to his superiors | about q month ago, but it will not be- | come effective for possibly six weeks ! During this time MT Heap will remain [ in Phoenix and devote his attention to ! closing up his private business.

He will be connected with com pany operating in the northern part of ! the territory, and part of his time will ! be spent a Flagstaff and part at | Prescott.
