 A MISSING HUSBAND. - A letter was received at the office of the sher- 1 tiff yesterday from Mrs. w. B. Merrill of Muskogee. okla, making inquiry about her husband Walter Merrill. of
 whom she has had no word. for year. About a year ago she learned in an
 indirect way that he was in Phoenix. PIPE REcEivED.-Eight car loads | of pipe for the city water works sys- tenn came in over the Southern Pacific yesterday and were unlOaded. total | of 125 cars in all will be shipped in during the course of the next few weeks.

 THE LAST RlTES.-The funeral of 1 A. J. Daggs and George Detmore was | held yesterday afternoon at o'clock | from the parlors of Mohn & Driscoll. Rev. MT. Maclean of the First NJ F..
 church officiating. There was quite large attendance. including a number | of Masons, who acted as pail bearers

 body of her son. They were Inferred 1 in the Greenwood cemetery.
 | A cOMPARiSON-A comparison of ! figures yesterday showed that the re- | ceipts Of all the fourth class postof-
 fices in the territory. over and above
 the amount retained by the postmas-
 ters for salaries. is practically equal to | the total net return made by the Phoe-
 nix postoffice, over and above its own cost of maintenance. This does not | imply that the total amount of busi-
 ness of the Phoenix office is as great
 necessarily as the total amount of all | the fourth class offices for in some ! instances it takes all the receipts tO pay the postmaster and then he does
 not get remuneration enough A part ] of the secret of the profits of the local office is that where large business 1 is conducted it can be done at less expense propOrtionately., Still there would not be a great difference be-
 tween the business done here and the i total of all the fourth class offices.

 | A COMPLICATED WAR.-A con- 1 siderable part of the time of Justice ] JOhnstone yesterday was spent in get : ting at the bottom of the scraps and series of scraps which took place at | the Star lodging house the night be- | fore. At the conclusion of his re- [ searches he knew little more of the casus belli than he did at the begin
 ming. But he had learned enough to warrant him in sending C. Gastelo, PasqUal Grijalva and Senor Joe Connel- | ly to jail for seven days. Grijalva pro- tested that whatever he had done had
 been done in self defense or rather. ac- cidentally. One complained that he had been struck in the face by Grijal-
