Misses Gertrude Mullen, May Harmon, Cora Hudlow and Irene Woolf of Tempe-the three latter being students of the normal. Quite an excitement prevailed during the floods of the 3rd and 4th. The swollen condition of the river De Flag and streets and yards stand ing several feet in water did cer- tainly look ominous, but there was no real danger to be apprehended only inasmuch as invalids might be affected by the dampness. The young people are very enthus- iastic over mountain climbing and
 
 climb to the top of Observatory hill at least, while many longing glance | is cast at old San Francisco peak and a wish Is often expressed that it were no farther away than it seems.
 The rain that has come every day for the past three weeks Is sOme- thing out of the usual order for us of the valley. A fire of pine knots could be thoroughly enjoyed these evenings and the oldest inhabitants say that a snow may be expected soon.

 Mrs. S. A. Wollfolk, Mrs. Simmons. Mrs. E. Woolfolk, Mrs. Barry and Messrs. Chas. and Ernest Woolfolk formed a picnic party on Tuesday and visited the habitations of the prehistoric cliff dwellers. The fact that the last half of the drive home was through a drencliing rain did not serve to dampen their ardor over such an interesting sight.
 The two Mrs. Creightons have moved from their cottage near the river to one on a higher elevation since the flood.
 MT. Garsight has gone to Prescott for the remainder of his outing. and MT. Yeager, after a short visit Phoenix.

 Riley is a consumptive and came here from Kansas last fall and imme- diately became a charge on the Asso- ciated Charities. He was taken care of until it was discovered that he was unworthy and for some time ther- after when arrangements were being made to send him back home. It was about that time that he committed the theft. In fact. he committed it for the purpose of adding to the funds which had been provided for his journey.
 It was afterward learned that he had been. confined in an insane asy- lum at Ossawattomie. Kans., and had never been regularly discharged from that institution.

SOME PROPERTY
 SHOWING UP GOOD
Mir. Hickey Files Articles of lneorpo, ration of Gold Mining Company.

M. NJ. Hickey is back from mining trip to Sonora whither he was accom- panied by w. w. Swingle. They to- gether with Charles McGee are the owners of a promising gold property in the Altar district, and yesterday filed articles, incorporating company called the Alvarado Gold and Silver Mining company for a s1,000. 900 capi- tai stock. which will within thirty days begin operations. MT. Hickey says the country looked good to him, and that he took a bond on another property which showed a ledge a hundred feet wide in places and ex- tending for miles across the country. He brought back some samples which show plenty of gold. in quartz.
 The Alvarado has been worked by "gambosinos or .chloriders'' for years. and about S100,0O0 has been taken out. There is also a shaft on the claims 35 feet deep on silver vein. AL though they have been offered a flattering sum for the property they they think that if the other fellow can make a stake they can not fail either. MT. Hickey says that the trip was mostly for purpose of making the survey and getting the final papers, giving them the title. He expects to return to Mexico when the things get fairly well started. The property which he bonded is located If miles south of Pitquito in the Altar district. Though he may not have the world by the tail, he has he thinks. a good hold on a very valuable share of a rich portion of it's mineral wealth in Sonora. While there they engaged in some hunting and killed one antelope. Game is plentiful in that section.

FOUR YEARS IN YUMA
 FOR J. |. MDOWfll
1t Was Slightly Longer Sentence Than the Former Cashier Had Ex- pected.

J. l.. Mcdowell, the former cashier of the Union Bank and Trust company who had pleaded guilty to an indict- ment charging him with embeZzle- ment, was yesterday morning sen tenced by judgment to four years in the territorial prison. Though that is not half as much of a sentence as might have been imposed upon him it was a little heavier than Mcdowell had expected. He had figured out in his own mind that three years would be about enough.
 William Crimms, the hobo who had been promptly convicted of grand larceny for picking up a pocketboOk in the street and trying to run away with it after the owner had been pointed out to him, was sent down for two years.
 Francisco Brava, who pleaded gull ty to aggravated assault in beating a woman over the head with a shovel. was sentenced to three years. Before passing sentence the court asked him If he had anything to say why his doom should not be pronounced. Brava replied that he had nothing to offer tAttDl q lltd lDl liAtlNSs T llN NpAA . asked why he should expect mercy. Here he had mercilessly beaten a woman with a shovel, an instrument manufactured for a more useful and peaceful purpose. Beside it was not the first time as the court had learn ed that the prisoner had been guilty of a similar offense; so why should mercy be extended? With a shrug of the shoulders and an air of resigna- ton which implied that the whole matter was not worth quarreling about with the court, Brava replied, "Oh, very we'll"
 B. F. Reasecker, who had been in- dicted for selling liquor without li- cense, through his attorney, Captain J. l.. B. Alexander, entered a plea of guilty and was sentenced to pay a fine of s10O, or in default of payment to serve term in the county jail at the rate of B per day until the amount of the fine should be dis charged. With this understanding he was permitted to go in the custody of his attorney.
 Before the passing of the sentence, Captain Alexander made a statement in which he said that Reaksecker had for some years been engaged in the sale of liquor at Alhambra. Recently his license had been revoked and since then he had sold liquor possibly three times.
 These sales, the attorney under stood, had been made in pursuance of an arrangement between his client and another man whose license had been similarly revoked and who had suggested to Reaksecker that he make a test case of the law and the pro ceedings by which he had been put out of the liquor business. The at torney said that after his indictment the defendant had come to him to handle the test case. He was told by the attorney that there was nothing to test but his ability to stand punish ment and he was advised 10 plead guilty and throw himself upon the mercy of the court.
 Frank Riley, who had been indicted for grand larceny in stealing the tent and other property of a benefactor, was. put on trial when his attorney entered a plea of insanity in his be- half The trial under the indictment was suspended and a special jury was impaneled to look into the men
