"A Feeble Ola Man without Friends,

"A Feeble OH Man without Friends.
but Plenty OF Money.
Yesterday morning AS the north
bound train drew up at the Union de.
pot a sickly old gentleman was taken
from the tram, carried into the sitting
room, and placed In q chair, where he
was left alone and uncared for. Mr.,
Cleveland, the proprietor Of the Union
hotel attached to the depot, passing
though the room saw the old man
looking so wretched and deserted that
his sympathy was aroused in his be-
half. lie had him carried into his ho-
tel, and his wants attended to. He was
almost entirely helpless, having very
little use OF his limbs. Mr.. Cleveland
learned from him that his name was
Russell, and that he was from Mobile,
Alabama, and on his way to see his
brother, whom he had not heard from
Tor many years, and who he thought
resided in Alvarado, johnson county.
Mr.. Cleveland kindly saw him Off on
the train for Fort Worth, telling the
conductor to look after him, which he
promised to do. He was well supplied
with money, yet he was ufaccom-
panied, and seemed to court no ia
vors whatever. He was SO feeble that
for time those who saw him thought
that he would die In the depot. At
times he spoke in delirious manner,
all the while seeming oblivious to his
true condition. Why he should in his
helpless condition choose to travel
alone is mystery.

 ED. SENTINEL: Since my last the Caiifornia-bound stage was attacked and robbed at a point some l5 miles this side of the rail- road. Over seventeen thousand dollars worth Of treasure was taken from the express box, and the mails were rified and destroyed. The passengers were not mOlested. Some of our citizens lost heavily; {; J. Goidwater & Bro. losing nearly three thousand dollars. Some days previous, three heavily arn- ed men left here going west and
 are probably the robbers. as their conduct aud language here was suspicious. The number of nlin- ing men coming through here is increasing. MT. Rateman is very enthusiastic about his interests in the McCracken mine. GiIlett has incorporated the silver Glance M. Co. with a capital stock of ten millions.

The town lands donated to the Southern Pacific R. R. Co. will probablyR be selected by Judge Underhill their agent and segregated next week. The rest of the unoccupied lots will then be thrown open to pur- chase and occupation without unnecessary delay.

THE ALBA CALIFORNIA ilas been the truest friend of Arizona among the California papers. Nc pains have been spared by it to ascertain the value of our resour. ees and to present them favora bl y to the public. On military mat. ters the A(tG is apt to assume that all army officers here are always right in their differences with ci- williams and employees of other Branches of the government; but, judging that it takes this view for cash, and andinec that the pu- bile shares our opinion, we are not disposed to waste time on a criticism of that weakness. On Arizona mines the AIta has 80 far shown itself we'll informed and unprejudiced.
