SHE KNEW.

A young lawyer had become very much attached to a certain young wo- man, who was somewhat celebrated among her friends for her repartee. The only obstacle in the pathway of the young man was his exc eeding shy ness, for while always in command of himself in the court room- he became almost speechless in the presence of women and for the purpose of showing his devotion it was his custom to shower his inamorata with pres ents.
 The young ladys mother, being far from satisfied with the status of the case, preached the subject.
 My dear" she said, you have let MT. Brown practically monopolize your society for year, and now have scarcely any other callers. Has he ever given you to understand that his intentions are serious?"
 No, he hasn't said anything, but I know they are.'

1 it being held that promises to pay out
 of the sale of lots did not create a
 lien.
 The Judgment of the lower court was affirmed in the case of the Walla-
 pai Mining and Development company
 against the territory-Foster s. Den
 his, treasurer of Mohave county. This was suit against the company for
 the collection of taxes. This suit was
 resisted on the ground that the assess
 ment rolls for two years had not been
 properly certified, as the law pre-
 scribes they should have been. The
 court, however, held that under law
 subsequently, passed such defect had
 been cured and that in any event the
 certification of the rolls was directory and not mandatory. Further, the neg lect of the assessor had wrought no hardship on the plaintiff and the doc triIe was further laid down that the law contemplates that taxes shall be paid.
 In the case of the California De- velopment company, appellant, against the Yuma Valley Land and Water company appellee, from Yuma county, the judgment of the lower court was HIS was cl SUll DS lilC ter company to recover the value of a dredge which had been loaned to the California company and wrecked and lost. Suit had been brought for $25,- 900 and judgment rendered for ST. O97.S5. The claim of the plaintiff was contested on two grounds. One was that the price asked for the dredge was excessive. and the other that the plaintiff had not borrowed the dredge at all That the agent in negotiating with the plaintiff had acted without authority. It was shown, though, that previous to closing the deal he had been directed to do so by the vice president and general superintendent of the company, who further instruct ed him that he should first have the plaintiff insure the dredge He neg lected to carry out that part of his in- but it was made known to the plaintiff that that was a part of the instructions.

THE SUPREME COURT
 DOWN TO BUSINESS
Opinions Hand ,d Down Yesterday in
 Several Cases.

There was an unusually large at tendance at the seG ond session of the supreme court. Ma ny citizens who have hitherto taken little interest in the deliberations of the court came out to see the gowns of the members. the fame of which ha d. been spread all if, usually possessed. seemed to be rattled and deprived of his custom ary foxiness, otherwEse he would have put himself on the door and have ex- acted an admission fee.
 Opinions were han led down in sev- eral cases. In the ca SC of Jesse Hoyt Smith, appellant, az, linst William J. Rainey, Lillian Raine.y, Frank Luke. and John Luke, appeuees, from this county, the judgment of the lower court was affirmed. ST nth and Rain ey some years ago bou ght a tract of land northeast of the city and named it Las Palmas. The,s intended tt. convert it into sites for suburban resi- dences. Smith paid the money--$1S,- 000-for the land and paid for inn provements amounting altogether to $67,000. He was to have a two-t thirds interest in the enterprise, and Rainey to have a one-tnird intere st. He was to reimburse Smith out of the sales of lots The enterprise, however, nev- CT reached the lot-selling ;taae.
 There had been minin g transac- tion between Rainey and the Luke brothers and the latter secured judg- ment against him and attached his in- terest in Las Palmas. After this. Smith brought suit against Rainey for the purpose of securing his interest in the tract, for no part of which he had ever paid. The Luke brothers had themselves made parties to the de- fense.
 It was the theory of the plaintiff that the old agreement existing be- tween him and Rainey for the reim- bursement of the plaintiff for his ex- penditures was in the nature of a lien. was rendered against them, ]
