The Papago Chief Dead.

Francisco Galerita, chief of the
San Xavier Indians and one of the
most influential men among the
Papagoes, died on Thursday at his
residence in San Xavier del Bac.
Francisco was one of the old In
dians who had seen during his
years the missionary rule; he used
to speak very highly of the old
regime and relate how fiourishing
was the condition of his tribe un-
der the guidance of religious ad.
ministration. His character as a
man was good and exemplary; he
ruled the Indians for many years
and all were obedlent to his CON-
maDd and docile to his advices.
Nothing was undertaken without
his consent and he presided al ways
over the councils of the nation.
His loss will bs deeply felt by all
the Papagoes who respected and
loved him as their Mentor. He
died after having received the sac.
raments of the Catholic Church,
in which he was born. His funeral
took plaza in San Xavier, accord.
ing to the rite of the same church.
Francisco Galerita leaves to his
son an independent fortune, law
fully acquired through hard work
and economical living. Tucson

Apache, supersiiiions.
[Mesllla News.l

lMeSllla NEWS
The Apache is @ sun worshiper,
with all the superstitions of that
class of religionists. They consider
the sun the eye of the Great Spirit,
and that it shields them from dan
ger through its dazzling influence
upon the vision of the pale-face.
The Apache never attacks q foe un-
der the cover Of night, while the
sun sleepeth.
The Apaches consider all stages
and coaches engaged in the trans
portation of the United States mails
the property of Washington, their
idolized father of America, and
have never been known TO molest
or attack a mail coach unless when
fired upon by some foolhardy pas
senger, or when exasperated just
previously by some outrage. In all
our recent Indian troubles the
mails have passed back and forth
regularly, without interruption,
oftentimes in sight of the Apaches.
The Apache respects the tele-
graph wire as the property of
Washington, the great father, and
never disturbs it. They call call it
the "Whisperipg Spirit"
No traveller need have any fear of
Indian attack on a passenger on q
mail coach. Many fool-hardy per-
sons invite attack by travelling
through the country with horses
and mules, which the Indians al
ways covet. No red.haired man
was ever scalped by Indians; they
regard them as children of the sun.

The Murder Of Young Phelan.

From letter received by Sheriff
elect Rowland yesterday, we learn
that William Phelan mot Philbin,
as previously PUBLISH ed), who was
found murdered at Chino, San Ber-
nardlno county, on Friday last, at
the time the murder was commit
sed had evidently taken shelter be-
hind an old wall for protection
from fierce norther that prevailed
In that section on the 10th and 1lth
instants, on one of which days 1t is
supposed he was killed. The foul
deed was done with shotgun, the
charge entering above the left eye
and ranging downward. He must
have died instantly, as his feet re-
mained under the body, as though
he had been sitting on his hunkers.
1t was evidently the purpose of the
murderers to burn the body, as
they had partially covered it with
lot of light wood, and, it Is
thought. were only deferred from
carrying out their design by seeing
some one approach. The body had
been stripped of new overcoat and
o revolver, but some change in one
of the pantaloon pockets was left
undisturbed. Two men have been
arrested on suspicion, one OF them
man named Marxsen, formerly of
this city. They were 10 have had a
preliminary examination yester-
day.
The remains of the murdered
youth, who bore an excellent char
acter for steadiness and sobriety,
were brought to this city on Sun
day by his father, Mr.. John Phe-
Ian, and inferred here.

date for the position of City Tax
Collector. Mr.. Kremer, in the sew
eral positions of trust heretofore
held by him, has discharged the
duties faithfully and, should he be
shosen, we have no doubt will be
found equally reliable in the new
trust.
The absconding defaulter, Ham,
ilton, of Los Angeles, stopped at
Bernardo on the night of our friend
Graham's wedding. About dark
Hamilton entered the Postoffice
there and inquired for Mr.. Graha M,
and on being informed that Mr..
Graham was out, he introduced
himself as a postal agent on an in
spection tour. He was accom-
panied by Carrillo. Meeting Mr..
Graham next morning, he made no
allusion to his ostensible business
as postal agent, and soon after
left for parts uDknown.--Sdn Diego
Union.
While Messrs. Wilbur and Pratt
would not tell us what their plans
are, at the same time they let drop
some ideas which showed that they
are not in sympathy with San
Francisco or in league with their
capitalists. They told Mr.. Isaac
that they considered Southern Cal
ifornia their rightful field of opera
tions; that they felt that our
freights belonged to them, and they
meant to secure them. They said
it was their intention after making
their terminus at San Diego to run
branch roads sufficient to tap all
this lower country, as far as Point

How Merriiy We Live.

The Gear of Russia leads an un-
easy life, as the following excerpt
from his diary, given to the Golos,
and translated by i reporter of
this paper, will show: 'Nov. 9th,
1879. Got up at IA. NJ. and ordered
my bath. Found there were four
gallons of vitriol in 1t, and did not
take it. Being unable to wash,
went to breakfast somewhat grimy.
The Nihilists had placed two tor
pedoes on the stairs, but l did not
step on them. The coffee smelt so
strongly of prussia acid that was
afraid to drink it, and the fish waa
so bitter that I only ate one mouth
full of it. Found q scorpion in my
left slipper, but luckily shook 1t
out before putting it on. Some
body had placed a centipede in the
pocket where l keep my blow-my-
nose, but 1t crawled out before l
had occasion to use my handker-
chief. Just before stepping into
the carriage to go for my morning
drive, it was blown into the air,
killing the coachman and the
horses instantly. The scoundrels
were just two minutes too soon,
reckoning on my punctuality. 1
did not drive. Took a light lunch
off herme tically sealed American
canned goods. They can't fool me
there. Found poisoned dagger in
my favorite chair, the point sticking
out. Did not sit down on it. Went
to lie down, examined the bed as
usual, and found q cobra di capella
under the pillow. Had dinner at 6
p. NJ, and made Baron Laischouno-
wonski taste every dish. He died
before the soup was cleared away.
Couldn't get any one else to do
any more tasting, and SO went up
stairs and consumed some Baltl-
more oysters and some London
Stout, that have had locked up
for five years. Went to the theater
and was shot at three times In the
first act. Had the entire audience
hanged. Went home to bed, and
slept all night on the roof OF the
palace. Have ordered cast-iron
suit of armor and mask. Wish 1
was IN Boston selling peanuts.
Would go, If L thought could get
there without being killed. Don't
feel as If i was Peter the Great, by
any manner of means. How nice
it must be to be dry-goods clerk.
Servant just found three men in the
chimney. Don't think I'll write
any more just now" Snch are
only few of the penalties of great
ness, which, however, serve to IL
