Phoenix was yesterday morning vis- tied by another rain, .S9 inches falling in the past twenty-four hours. The heaviest showers some between 3:45 a. m. and 11:10 a. m. The indications according to Weather Observer Jesun- nfsky are for more local rains today. The temperature was moderate yes terday, ranging below so degrees at 1 D. m. The humidity Was at that time T per cent.
 The rains have been general all oyer the territory. and over the water sheds ot the Gila, Verde and Salt rivers. All the canals are running full of water and the ranchers are rcjoic- ing in a plentiful supply for irrigation. Yesterday afternoon about IS inches of water was running over the Granite Reef dam, and at Mcdowell station the flow was 2,S55 seconds feet, and at the Salt 3,S5S seconds feet, accord ing to the report of Engineer Reed.
 The weather bureau received infor- nation from Jerome that one inch had fallen there Trcsday morning.

 The rise in the Salt river yesterday was about three feet at Tempe. Heavy rains have also fallen in the southern part of the territory, in some places making great floods On the railroad to the Ty.in Buttes mine, near Tue son, several places in the track were washed out by the swollen streams

lefty and flooded the residences of North Granite and Mccormick streets. The torrent also threatened the lives of families residing in North Prescott, and one Mexican family was isolated and the children of three other families had to be carried through the floOt1- water to a place of safety. Three houses, occupied by Chinese families, were submerged to a depth of four feet An aged couple living immedi- ately south of the railroad tracks were isolated from the city and their garden plot ruined and most of their belong ings carried away, leaving them in a destitute condition.
 This remarkable torrent drew hun ureds tO the banks of Granite creek. The creek was d foaming torrent all the way to the Verde river Debris, parts of bridges, and even living ani- mals, horses, chickens and household pets, floated helplessly down stream. Two-t thirds of the bridge destroyed south of town lodged on a rock reef 100 feet away from its mOorings. Many of the county roads were wash ed out and damaged badly in places. Lightning struck the Myers residence in East Prescott. The bolt tore away a hole in the roof ten feet square, but no one was injured. The east fence at the ball park was damaged. but the diamond can be put in good shape with a little filling in.

Hit hARQUA HALA
 MINE 10 RESUME
Purchase of Cyanide PIant-WIll Add
 Needed Equipment.

The Harqua Hala mine win resume operations about the first of Septem- Der with a good sized force. It has been closed down for about three months pending some financial ar engagements. and the news of the re- sumption of work will be of interest to many in Phoenix who are stock holders and to the mining people in general.
 Frank NJ. Moore, the superintendent, is now in Los Angeles, where he is making purchases of supplies for the company for a cyanide plant to handle the tailings, of which there are several thousand tons assayinS high enough to warrant the expenditure of the sum necessary to fully equip the mine and make d profit in addition.
 Superintendent Moore was called to Ironwood. Mich, by a telegram from the president of the company, who re sides there. The visit to IrOnWOod re- suited in the definite plans for the commencement of the work and the purchase of the plant. Mir. Moore's report to the officers was very satis- factory, and the late development on the property has proved that it will be a big dividend payer when it gets to running on an easy money basis.
 The officers and many of the stock holders of the Harqua Hala will meet in Phoenix on the 18th of August, and at this annual session fuller plans for the future working of the mine will be settled upon. However, it has already been determined that the wheels will begin to revolve the 1st of September and development work will be pushed. The Harqua Hala is a gold proposition and has turned many thousands of dollars worth of bullion into the worlds supply of gold. At present only a watchman :s in charge of the property.

FRIGHTENED WOMEN
 ON DARK NIGHTS
Description Secured of Colored Gent
 Who Makes Himself Too Familiar.


 The police officials are on the watch for Jack the Hugger who is abroad in Phoenix, or has been, for the past three or four nights. Although no ar rests have been made a clew has been found which should lead to the de- lection and identification of the law breaker
 Several nights ago lady was ac- Costed on South First avenue and in sulting remarks addressed to her. She complained to the officers, but was unable to give any description of him. though she thought he was a colored man. She said he was not drunk, but apparently sober She was terribly frightened and when she ran he also lit out in the opposite direction, think ing she was going to summon help.
 Saturday night two women were ac- Costed by an unknown man who want ed to make d date with them. They also thought he was a colored man. He attempted no violence ard they got out of his way and he ran up an alley. The same thing occurred to a well known lady of Phoenix Monday night, and as her assailant stood near AllS lltaAN. 9lAN was etbAt Nb SANC Alit pb- lice a good description. The man is thought to be an old offender in the police court circles and will probably make himself hard to catch in the next twcnty-four hours. If he gets out of town that will be as good a re- suit as might be desired.
 The police landed a couple of trunks in jail yesterday answering to the Doe coguomen and Lucas Leon, a frequent offender, who was also locked up.

TWO INDIAN BURGLARS
 RAID A WAREHOUSE
A Chinaman's PoIygIot Description of
 the Outrage.

An excited Chinaman ran into the office of the sheriff yesterday morn ing to put in an Indian depreciation claim. There was some difficulty in getting the cause of his trouble out of him. He was trying to tell it in two languages at once and was all the time swearing in seven different tongues.
 Deputy Sheriff Adams has an expert knowledge of the Chinese language and literature and he speaks and un- derstands English fairly well. But he could not understand the two Ian guages when spoken at the same time. The Chinaman was finally confined to one tongue and he made known that inc was a merchant engaged in busi- ness on South Seventh avenue. The night before he said a couple of In dia,ns went into camp near his store. They had a team and wagon and a regular camping outfit. The Chinaman said that when he arose early as was his custom, yesterday morning the In dians were gone. Soon after that he discovered that his warehouse had been broken open and eight sacks of wheat which he had bought from the Indians were gone.
 He gave a description of the In dians and their team and the deputy sheriff telephoned to places where it was thought they might have sold the plunder. A reply came from one of the flour mills that a couple of In dians of that description had just sold eight sacks of wheat there and had gone away.
 A warrant for the arrest of John Doe and Richard Doe was sworn out | of Justice Johnstone's court and Dep uty Adams set out in search of them.
 He explained that he would have to go to the Pima reservation but it was q good morning for tracking. He found

Learning From Australasia.

The visit of our fleet to the British
colonies in Australasia has served to
direct the attention Of Americans to
progress made in those parts of the
British empire In the solution of many
political and social questions. Study
of conditions in New Zealand and Aus
tralia shows that these countries have
done many things in a way worthy Of
emulation by the people Of the United
States. Exceptionally high standards
Of public service have been attained.
and many problems which present
very puzzling aspects in our own coun-
try seem in at least a fair way of so
luton in n or both Of these colonies.
Hitherto it has been hard for Ameri-
cans to admit that they had anything
to learn from other communities. They
are growing out of that attitude, and
this fact is one Of those which NAV
well make us feel optimistic as to orr
future as a nation.
