 THE BEST YET-Hall Brothers sent to The Republican office yes terday a consignment of Alberta peaches that would make friends with anybody who ever saw them. There was a whole box of great big fruit, almost as big as small cantaloupes, and just as good as they Were large. They are all solid meat and as local residents know peaches in this coun- try do not carry a by-product of worms as do the peaches of many eastern states. There is nothing wasted except the pit and that can be turned into a tree that will make more peaches.

That probably means another foot over the dam today and perhaps more. Yesterday morning there was a considerable rise in both rivers at Richins' station, the Verde gage reading 7.35 feet with a discharge of 229S second feet and the Salt gage reading 495 feet with a discharge of 1032 or a combined discharge of over 133,O00 inches. Water was going over the Granite Reef dam seven inches deep but before noon it had all been diverted into the canals, or the waste gates so the dam was no longer top ped. It was also reported yesterday morning that an eighteen inch wave passed the joint head. Though it low cred little subsequently, it is quite likely there will be a good flow this morning. both over the Granite Reef dam and down the river. It is also likely that most everybody will find water in his ditch today.

FLEMING AND WILSON
 HELD ID GRAND JURY

Otis Fleming and Pete Wilson were two surprised individuals when they were held by Justice Parker to the grand jury yesterday for an aggra-. vated assault upon an old man by the name of Mac Williamson. This affair occurred at the Isaacs school house about week ago. All the parties had been drinking and Elem ing and Wilson sad that they had been only engaged in a friendly scuf- file which had been started by Will liamson. Williamson was left lying where he fell with d leg broken above the ankle.
 Williamson, who was brought from the county hospital told a different story. He said that Fleming and Wilson had come to him to get him to sign a cheek. When he refused the assault took place. It was by no means a friendly scuffle. but his as- sailants as well as himself were in deadly earnest.
 His story was corrobOrated by that of Walter Hancock, a young man who arrived on the scene after Williamson had fallen. Williamson lying on the ground angrily addressed the two men who were starting away and Elem ing turned upon him with a threat. Hancock interfered and prevented a second assault upon the crippled old man.
 The nature of WilIiamson's wound showed that his leg could not have been broken by the fall as Fleming said it had been. There were several bruises on the leg between the ankle and the knee, indicating that he had been struck or kicked.
