HONEST MAN GONE WRONG.

A Pa3ago Indian named Lucas Vil- legas, who has been in Mesa for many years, and who had the entire confi- dence O. all who knew him. got into trouble yesterday. A Mexican forgot his pocketbook in the Rabbit store. He left it lying open on the counter. and stepped outside. The bills were sticking out in plain sight. and there was no one in sight but Villegas. He extracted a ten and a five dollar bill from the pile and slipped them into his clothes. He was not caught in the act, but the Mexican returned in a few moments and discovered the shrinkage in lis wealth. He accused the Mexican. but the latter denied having touched the pocketbook The police judge was called in and the marshal was told to take the Indian to the jail and search him. When Vile gas stepped within the door he reach ed down and drew the money from his shoe. He was locked up and later pleaded guilty. The court assessed a fine of twenty dollars and then sus- pended a thirty day sentence over the head. Villegas has often been en- trusted with sums of money. and nev- CT before showed symptoms of dishon- esty. He lays his moral lapse to the fact that he had taken a few drinks of the white mans bad red medicine.

PUBLIC SCHOOL OPENING.
Selection of an Additional Teacher,
 Probably Tomorrow.

Principal Charles Alexander makes the announcement that the public school will open tomorrow at the usual hour. During the summer a number of repairs have been made to the build- ing. The interior has been freshly painted. new furniture and fixtures have been ordered and a wash room has been placed in commission with an adequate sewerage system.
 It will be necessary for the board to elect a new teacher to complete the faculty and this will probably not be done before tomorrow or Tuesday. The principal will take up the work of the 9th grade and the work of the Sth will be taken by Miss Stewart, the 1th thus being left vacant. It may be that some other teacher in the school will prefer higher work, in which case she will be given te 7th and her 'place will be taken by the new teacher. It is desir- ed that each member of the faculty be satisfied with her position and in case all are with the 7th grade vacant. the appointment of the new teacher will be made with a view to having her par ticularly adapted for the work of that grade. There are a number of appli- cations now on file with the board.
 In this connection it might be stated that there will be a great many new books this year, over % per cent Of the text books being different from the ones in use last year. Both drug stores now have a full supply on hand and will be prepared to do a rushing busi- ness for the next few days.

TEMPE
A WEATHER OBSERVER.
J. H. Cummings Officially Appointed
 to Report Conditions.

Readers of The Republican may have noticed for the past day or two that the drivers gauge at this point has been
 gwen in feet and tenths of feet. This report. which will be published daily so long as the river is above fording. is given The Republican each day by J. H. Cummings and may be taken as ab- solutely correct. He has been appoint ed by the United States weather bureau as the official weather observer for this section and a part of his duty con- sists in making q daily reading Of the river gauge at the bridge. In order that there shall be no misunderstanding. an explanation is necessary. The reading yesterday morning was 2.1 feet. That
 however, does not mean that there are but 21 feet of water at the bridge but that there is that much water flowing above low water mark or zero. This point occasionally changes and since the gauge was established there the river bed filled in some and the zero now means a little less than the two foot mark on the pier so that while the guage may record four or five feet of water. there is in reality something less than that. By remembering that the published reading of the gauge is so many feet above low water mark
 readers will there by be able to make a reasonable estimate of just how high the stream is running. 2.1 feet does not seem to be a great deal of water but at the same time it is enough to prevent fording at the bridge and no one has crossed there since the last raise. FordS have been established above and below that point, however. but neither of them may be considered good ones and not fit for public use.
 NIT. Cummings has also been supplied with an official rain gauge and here after will be able to report after each storm of the amount of rainfall He

A MESA WEDDING.

September is starting in well. A wedding a day is not bad for a small city. and the Mesa young people are trying to reach that record. Yester- day, Senorita Conception Mendibles, one of the Spanish-American belles of the town, was married to Tomas Nun oZ. at the residence of Leo ortiz. The Rev. Father from Tempe came over tn perform the ceremony in accordance with the rites of the Catholic church. There was a grand banquet after the ceremony. and last night 8 dance was given in honor of the young people.
 Papa Mendibles was so proud of the success of the wedding fiesta that when he rode up town to announce the event, nothing but the sidewalk was good enough for his cronco. and the police judge charged him the sum of ten dollars for the luxury. Mendibles paid the fine without a mur.nur. He would have stood for a double dose if necessary, he was so happy.

Leavitt brought his family back to Mesa X short residence in New Mexico was sufficient to cause MT. Leavitt to see that there was no place quite so good for the farmer as the Salt River val ley. and he says that now he is satis- fled to remain here. He is only one of many who have in the past left Mesa in search of the land flowing with milk and honey. but who later discovered tkat the.- had left all the milk behind and the honey was scarce and hard to find
