T told him to shut up, that l didn't want to hear him jabber to me. and when he didn't, I took a piece of iron and banged him in the head with it." Thus spake Martin Mesta. a Mexican up before Judge Stanford charged with beating up an Austrian over near Gila.
 As told exclusively in The Republi can yesterday morning, the Austrian much the worse for wear and severe beating up he had received at the hands of some unknown Mexican. was brought into the sherifCs office. Soon after his entrance on the scene. the Mex. was captured at Gila by Deputy Sheriff Carr
 Yesterday he was arraigned before Judge Stanford and plead guilty to the charges preferred.
 His stcry was that he met up with the man he later attempted to kill and they were walking along the track. The Austrian persisted in jab- bering at him in some unknown tongue. much to his dispIeasure and annoyance He told him to desist, and of course as both spoke a different tongue, neither could undertand the other Then came the clash.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE CAPTIVE" ANOTHER
 BIG ARIZONA FEATURE

This time it is the Jesse l.. Lasky production of The Captive" which the Arizona offers to Phoenix. as some thing just a little better than usual With Blanche Sweet in the leading female role. supported by House Peters. it is sure to be inter esting: but it contains one scene in particular which is going to make a real hit. one man. single handed. defends a girl against d mob of drunken Turkish soldiers. giving a very vivid idea of the errors tha. beset women in the days of war. The hero. who so bravely meets this situation. is himself Turk. and has. through the fortunes of war. been the servant of the peasant girl. Though she has treated him most unjustly he has come to love her. and he finds himself in the strange posi- tion of having to protect her from his own superior officer. He harricades tho house and prepares for a hopeless resistance, but is rescued by the Nontcnegrans who rctakc the village in the nick of time This picture will be shown at the Arizona tonight and tomorrow.

If you never had any more troubles than the operation and maintenance department of the U. $. Reclamation service here now, you might also dispense with your ingratiating and sooth- ing smile. Don't get the notion that the smile is not on tap at the U. <. R. <. It is. Only, of ficially. it is not now being pro duccd at so much per diem in wages and expenses.
 In other words, the trouble de- partmcnt has been abolished A week has passed since the aboli- ton, and the earth has not yet been shaken by any vociferous and water uscrish complaints.

PAVING PROTESTS
 ID BE HEARD TODAY
Warm Session of City Commission
 This Morning

There will probably be a warm
 session of the city commission at ten o'clock this morning, when protest ants against an extension of the paw ing on West Monroe and West
 Adams are to be heard. The state
 ment has been made that the pro-
 testants will be given a hearing. not
 withstanding less than fifty-one per cent of the property owners within the paving district have voiced their objection to the extension. A. D. Leyhe, one of the protestants, last night said that the protests represent more than sixty per cent of the frontage of the district He said that the apparent discrepancy may be explained in this way. He is the owner of TAT feet on Adams street and this property has depth of 245 feet on Eleventh avenue Both streets are named in this district and all frontages are counted. But in signing the protest he entered his Adams street frontage suppOsing that it would be patent that he would as strenuously object to paving in front of his Eleventh avenue frontage as in front of the Adams street frontage. Likewise. much other frontage of the protestants is thus not represented.
 There are, said MT. Leyhe, in the district 11.791.91 feet of frontage and inc obiectors to paving represent 71S6.50 feet of frontage.
 One matter of dispute today will probably be the authority under which the names of nonresident or absent protestants have been signed. ! It is contended by some that only an power of attorney can make such signatures valid Tn most cases only letters from owners 1 are the authority. It is expected 1 there will be a large attendance at l the meeting this morning.

MATTER OF NOISE
 BEFORE THE COURT
Case of Pool Rooms Near the Capi.
 tol Lodging House

The right of one to run d Iegiti- mate business just as he darn pleases
 came up in the court of Judge Me
 Bride yesterday in the case of the
 City of Phoenix cN. rel. Mrs. Ruby
 Harper. against Mike Morres. Tom
 Morros, Nick Anderson and Bill An
 non, the proprictors of a group of pool rooms In the vicinity of Third
 and Washington streets. The com
 planning witness is the proprietress of the Capitol hotel in the same
 vicinity.
 There was such an array of testi- mony on each side and of such a conflicting character that when it was all in the court confessed to some mental confusion and said that he would take the matter under ad- visement until eleven o'clock this morning.
 Mrs. Harper was the first witness She said that the racket in the two pool rooms was kept up at all hours of the day but that did not matter SD much. It was the night racket that interfered with her business. One of the pool rooms is on one side of Washington street and one on the other several blocks further down. Nl st lttNt uouI tL llt ulSut II was the practice of the defendants to con verse with each other from one pool room tn another. diasonalIy across a hundred foot street The language was not only Vociferous but grace and beauty were sacrificed to strength of expression.
 Another method of arousinG the dead in the vicinity of Third and Washington street was to have some habitue of the pool rooms who had never taken lessons practice on horn of some kind Several other witnesses testified to the tumultuols character of the place. An attempt was made to weaken the word of one of the witnesses. one of the defend ants said that this witness was in his place but he was so drunk that he could not have distinguished be- tween noise and silence.
 On the part of the defense several witnesses declared that they had heard no noise about the pool rooms though in most cases il appeared that they were not in the vicinity of them lt The time when it was complained | the uproar was made. Other wit aeSscs testified to the good character 1 If the defendants.

Trouble Dept. Is Canned IU.S.R.S. Has No More Of 'em--Thanks

ing some reasons for the decoy, Baxter and Wilson informed us yesterday that two things had brought about this condition.
 l. Improved service.
 2. Eudcation of the rancher.
 Under the administration of the friendly relations department zanjeros became mighty efficient. and soon the kicks about badly served water began to decrease. Then. ranchers got to coming in for chats with Baxter and Wilson. and they learned several things. U. $. R. s. men are only human and as humans they try to do their best. Ranchers learned this. They also began to get the idea that if their kick was not pretty well founded it didn't get {. them very far.
 Things soon got on a cordial and cooperative basis. When this began to happen. the trouble department felt itself slipping A week ago, it slipped clean over the brink, ana now, c. Baxter is a fixture in the office of A. J. IIalton, the O. and M. boss. and Wilson has been signed up by the Feds-that is to say, the construction department.

TRIED ID BLOW UP
 MIAMI RESERVOIR
Dynamite Used on One of the New
 Units

It was made known at Globe yes tCrday for the first time that an at tempt was made to blow up the new auxiliary reservoir at Miami last Monday night. The reservoir had just been completed and five or six feet Of water had been turned into it to cleanse it preparatory to filling it with water. Late on Sunday night loud explosion was heard and it was found that an attempt had been made to blow hole in the reservoir.
 The concrete partition separating the reservoir into sections was par tiaIly destroyed The damage is os- timated at not more than $500 or l.o0O

 Finnigan's Alley one of the funniest comedies ever seen in Phoenix The part of Larry Finngan, an Irishman who strikes oil, is well taken by Jim my Lee. and his refusal to comply with the conventions of society, much to the distress of Mrs. Finnigan- Miss Marie Barbier-who is making desperate attempt to break into Jake Schmaltz, the German caloon keeper. Lew Mathews the son of the old Irishman, furnished a great deal of amusement.
