TOMBSTONE, May 20.-The filing of the suit against the Huacnu~s. Water company On last Saturday by former President Davis of that com pany, to foreclose the mortgage on the property, which, with principal and interest, amounts to over S1 ,200,- 900, has caused considerable com ment in the city and has lead to many rumors that it is a step toward the closing down or the plant and taking the waters to Bisbee, in order to get around the contract that was entered into by the water company and the city at the time they were granted the privilege of laying the mains and laterals in the city and which agreement the company sought to break about two years since and were stopped by an inluucIiun brought by the city, which injunction has been made perpetual by the de- cision of Judge Doan in the district court of this county, and which de cision was afterward confirmed in the supreme court of the United States.
 It is the opinion of the attorneys in the case for the city that the bringing of the suit against the com pany by Davis will not in any manner affect the franchise granted to the company and that the purchaser of tbe property in the event the sale is ordered will be compelled under the franchise to continue to furnish the water to the city oE Tombstone.
 Quarterly Examinations.
 The regular quarterly examinations for teachers will be held on June 1st and 2nd by County Superintendent of Schools John A. Rockfellow. This examination will be the second one to be held this year and will be followed by another the first Monday in Sep tember. It is quite probable that number of applicants will be on hand to take the examinations at this time as they wish to secure their certificates from the territorial board, so that they will be able to secure schools and start work when the fall terms open in September. There has been a scarcity of teachers during sures those who successfully pass the examination that some position in the teaching corps will be awaiting them.
 Daring RobDery.
 One Of the most daring pieces of burglary that has been perpetrated in this city was successfully carried out last night when some one broke the show window of the Peoples store on the corner of Fifth and Allen streets and appropriated nearly everything Of value that was on display. The work was done during the early part of the evening, beween and Il o'clock, as the store was not closed until g and the broken window was discovered about Il o'clock by Night Watchman Kelly From the appear ance of the window it is evident that the party stood around the corner from Allen street and with a rock broke the window close to the frame, as the curtain was up on that side and he could be hid from the view of those on Allen street and could have made his escape down Fifth had the crashing of the glass caused atten- tion. A large piece of the glass was removed and the party or parties had plenty of room to remove the goods on display. There were taken some seven shirts, a number of pairs of shoes, socks, neckties, etc. The par ty who did the work was badly cut by the window and was followed by the officers to the vicinity of the cave-in near the engine house on Toughnut street. Several socks GOV cred with blood were found at this place.
 The loss of goods will not amount to more than $40, while the cost of the plate glass window that was smashed will cost in the neighborAood of $100. The officers are at work on the case and will | make a thorough search in an en- deayor to locate the party who did the work and recover the goods.
