his name as Jas. Fox, though it was
learned later that his real name is
James Rabbit, and it was under that
name that he was arrested. He has
been a student at the Indian school
and speaks good English. He was also
wise enough to refrain from giving
away the name Of the man from whom
he purchased the liquor; all he would
say was that he got il from a Mex
lean tramp. He was fined SIS and
didn't have the money, so consequent
ly went to Jail. The Yaqui was fined
SO and was in better financial shape
than his friend; he dug up the requir-
ed amount and was released. 1t is
noticeable that this is the first case
OF a drunken Yaqui that the court has
had to deal with in some time. The
results of the council action in re
uuesting saloonkeepcrs to refuse them
liquor is evident but it can not be eX-
pccted that this action on the part of
the saloonkeepers alone viii entirely
stop them from drinking occasionally.
Like any other Indian. they find "A way
to get booze and in this instance the
liquor that caused the trouble was
purchased from a Mexican and not
from a saloonkeeper.

HOT IN KANSAS,

time with the government work at
Granite Reef, and who has just re-
turned from a visit To his old home

very hot and oppressive back there.
The nights We're so sultry that one

THE FALLING RIVER.

The river at this point was about
normal yesterday, that is to say, it was
at the same stage it was previous to
the rains Of the present week. The
crossing is Just as il was, and there is
no danger in fording if one keeps in
the road. That condition must be re-
Parded however, at all times of the
year. as there is always more or less
danger of qUicksand. The fall i'm
