Water Rights Forfeited if Unused. A decision has lately been rendered by the California Supreme Court which is of interest to owners of water rights. The syllabus of the decision says, with other points: An appropriation of water by means of a ditch is not measured by the:capacity of the ditch, but is limited to such quantity, not exceeding its capacity, as the appropriator may put to a useful purpose; and mo matter how great in extent the original quantity appropriated may have been, any amount less than the whole amount appropriated which has not been devoted toa beneficial use at some time within five years, is lost and forfeited as against a subsequent uppropriator thereof. a oi *¢Sunset’’ Cox’s Repartee. A life of “Sunset” Cox, the famous Congressman from Ohio and New York, has been published by his nephew, the well-known scientist of the Smithsonian Institute. One anecdote is not new in its point, but memory-refreshing in the location of the phrase. His celleague in the House, the late General Rosecrans, tells it: “I remember one day some one on the other side, I forget his name, was making a strong pro-Chinese speech, winding up something like this: ‘The Chinaman is clean, he is temperate, he is frugal; what fault have you to find with him?’ Cox piped out, ‘He wears his shirt outside of his breeches.’ The House was crowded, and that was the last of that orator and the Chinese speech.” Best In The County.

As strange as anything written in fiction is the story of the life and death of the captive queen of the Muna islands, in the South Pacific. For three years Margaret Young, daughter of an English sailor, who was cast away on one of the islands, had been queen of the islands against her will, allowed to look upon the face of a man. She had been educated in Samoa, where she bad lost her heart to a chieftain. Her tragic death was caused by suffocation when her savage subjects tried to cure her of a cold by surrounding her with fire. e s Much in Little Is especially true of Heod’s Pills, for no meditine ever contained so great curative power in 80 smail space.

Ten-Year-Old Horse Thieves. _ Fred Hill and d Angelo Solari, aged about ten years, were arrested late yesterday afternoon on complaint of William Manuel of the North Banner mine who charges them with twice stealing from him a mule and a colt and bringing them to town, on one occasion letting them get into the pound and be sold so it cost him $12.50 to recover them. The lads, who say there were two other little fellows in the job with them, will have their examination tomorrow afternoon before Justice Holbrook, It is quite likely an effort will be. made to send Hill and Solari to the Preston School of Industry, as they are incorrigibles. “Irrigation Commissioner.

Water Rights Forfeited if Unused. A decision has lately been rendered by the California Supreme Court which is of interest to owners of water rights. The syllabus of the decision says, with other points: An appropriation of water by means of a ditch is not measured by the:capacity of the ditch, but is limited to such quantity, not exceeding its capacity, as the appropriator may put to a useful purpose; and mo matter how great in extent the original quantity appropriated may have been, any amount less than the whole amount appropriated which has not been devoted toa beneficial use at some time within five years, is lost and forfeited as against a subsequent uppropriator thereof. a oi *¢Sunset’’ Cox’s Repartee. A life of “Sunset” Cox, the famous Congressman from Ohio and New York, has been published by his nephew, the well-known scientist of the Smithsonian Institute. One anecdote is not new in its point, but memory-refreshing in the location of the phrase. His celleague in the House, the late General Rosecrans, tells it: “I remember one day some one on the other side, I forget his name, was making a strong pro-Chinese speech, winding up something like this: ‘The Chinaman is clean, he is temperate, he is frugal; what fault have you to find with him?’ Cox piped out, ‘He wears his shirt outside of his breeches.’ The House was crowded, and that was the last of that orator and the Chinese speech.” Best In The County.

As strange as anything written in fiction is the story of the life and death of the captive queen of the Muna islands, in the South Pacific. For three years Margaret Young, daughter of an English sailor, who was cast away on one of the islands, had been queen of the islands against her will, allowed to look upon the face of a man. She had been educated in Samoa, where she bad lost her heart to a chieftain. Her tragic death was caused by suffocation when her savage subjects tried to cure her of a cold by surrounding her with fire. e s Much in Little Is especially true of Heod’s Pills, for no meditine ever contained so great curative power in 80 smail space.
