and kept until after the completion os the reservoir at Roosevelt. Between now and then similar obseFvations win be taken and with the aid of this data. any time after the completion of the storage project and after the results have been given time to show up, it will be an easy matter to tell exactly Of what benefit the storage of water has been the farmer in the Salt River valley.
 It has been found impractfcable to trust to the written communications to the different farmers as many of them seem to take little or no inter est in the matter and are neglectfni in sending in the reports as request ed. On that account Supervfsine En- gineer Hill decided to send men to gather the data and not depend upoa the farmers The two gentlemen who have been doing the work are fully competent and experienced. IT for any reason they have reason to doubt a farmers statements. they immediately visit the fields or whatever it may be in question and decide the matter for themselves.
 Week before last they worked on the Mesa and now have the south side completed with the exception Of a small portion of it just south and across the river from Phoenix. where they will continue their observations on the north side.

A BIG RAIN.
Nearly Two Inches of Rain Fell In Six
 Hours Yesterday.

What seems to be. as far as can be learned, about the heaviest summer rain in the history of Tempe, fell yes terday morning between two and eight o'clock. The rain was preceded by a violent wind storm which did more or less damage. There was also brilliant electrical display by the light of which outdoor sleepers were enabled to seek shelter before the downpour. When it really began rain ing, there was no joke about it and for about six hours the rain fell in torrents. The report Of the water guage at the experimental station showed a precipitation of 1.82 inches. It is thought by some that it rained even harder here in town. At any rate, the streets were flooded, the culverts beng unable to accommodate all of the water and it required the work of the marshal and several assistants dur ing the day to open up the drains, and in some places make new ones to carry the water off.
 The six weeks spell of unbroken heat that valley residents have been obliged to suffer, now shows some signs of relenting and the prospect for cooler weather is considered favora- ble.

A CHINESE DUEL.

On Sunday afternoon a Chinaman is reported to have been killed in a house at Talat Piu, Bangkok, as the result of a duel with another Chinaman. They fought with the two forefingers of each hand. stabbing each other with these in the region of the spleen and at the same level on the other side of the body strongly built cOolie using the weight of his body could certainly give a nasty blow in that part of the body, even with two fingers. and re- peated blows of the kind are said us- ually prove fatal. The men who go in for this kind Of contest practice every morning stabbing bags of rice or paddy with these fingers till they can use them Ike a piece of iron.-Bang- kok Times.

ON WITH THE DANCE
But the Police Say Not On Sunday if They
 Can Help It.

Waterbury is getting ill line for al most everything that is up to date and some are wondering where it will end. Sunday is getting to be most popular as day to pull off sporting events, social affairs and everything that helps to make merry, but the police called q halt to an affair which was being pulled off ill Murray hall oil East Main street last evening. The affair was nothing more than an ordinary dance, an orchestra. programs and everything that would be used at dance given any night during the week. The club running the event is supposed 10 be rather select and no one who had not an invitation could gain admittance. It did not. cost anything to get in. but once inside the old checking business was brought into use and it was neces- sary for each and every one present to pay quarter to have his or her hat checked. Everything ran along smooth ly until after the sixth number had been run off, but then the police showed mp and the young people who were in charge of the dance were po- litely informed that the reception would have to come to close. It was with regret that the merry dancers heard the command but it had to be obeyed. as they knew the consequences if they broke the bluecoats' order. What is next in line?

CHILD WAS BURNED Parents Were Former Residents of This City Remains to be
 Brought Here.

Word was received in this city this afternoon of the death in Larchmont, New York, of Mary Quinlan. the four years and nine months old child of Mir and Mrs William Quinlan. formerly or this city. MT Quinlan, when he lived here. was lineman in the employ of the Southern New England company, and his wife. who was q Miss Quiii- Ian before her marriage. was popu. lar clerk in Reid X Hughes dry goods store. Their many friends in this city will be shocked to hear of the manner of death of their little girl which took place this morning at half past three. Saturday, with other children of her own age, Mary was playing on the lawn of some of the houses near her own. These lawns were being burned over in preparation for the spriIg dressing of loam. In some manner the dress of the little one caught fire and before assistance could roach her she was badly burned. The little girl was hurried at once to the New Ro- chelle hospital, where she fingered un- til this morning, when death eased her sufferings. The remains will he brought to this city tomorrow after noon, reaching here on the 3:4S train and the burial will be ill St Joseph's cemetery. James Quinlan of this city, sexton of St Thomas church. is q grandfather of the little girl, and Mrs Edward Lewis, wife of the former let. ter carrier. is an aunt
