The Irony Of Fate.

From the New York Times.
Charles Delmonico was the last male repre-
sentative Of a famous family. He was urbane,
polite, man Of affairs. fast friend, liberal
giver, and, above all, a discreet and spacious
convivisl companion. His disappearance was
cause Of modification TO many. His un-
timely, sonowful and unattended death 10 a
pitiful ending TO a life passed in brightness
and good cheer.
Mr.. Delmonico, naturally a strong, self
contained and resolute man, lost his mind in
consequence Of being burdened with nany
cares and much business and subjected to the
daily din and worry OF the large establishment
which he managed. The mental strain was
too great for him, and he gradually exhibited
to those who knew him best decay OF mental
power that should have been more alarming
than 1t evidently was.
In this case the darkest fears have been real
lied, and the genial, comp snionable and gen.
erous host Of one OF the most celebrated
pleasure haunted establishments 10 the world
is found frozen stiff sAd stark by a country
highway. The sharpness Of the contrast OF
the mans living and his dying needs not to be
commended to the consideration or the COM
munity. Those who knew Mr.. Delmonico, as
well as those who knew Of him, have already
pointed the obvious moral of his doleful his
tory. But we have now no concern with any
moral. 1t should, however, be "borne in
upon" all those whose sonowful experiences
bring them into contact with persons Of un-
sound mind that unceasing vigilance, even at
the cost Of the good will and esteem Of the
inhrm one. must be maintained. Mr.. Del
monico resented any attempt to restrain him
OF his liberty. But II he could have been kept
under restraint he would be alive to-day. 1t
is easy to be wise after the event. But II is,
nevertheless, lamentable that one OF the best
known men in this great metropolis, who has
ministered to the luxury and comfort Of in
Vulnerable people, should have been left to
perish miserably and alone in wintry wilder
ness. This is the extreme OF the irony of
fate.

The Board of Supervisors have com promised the railroad taxes on the same basis as in Yavapai county. Con sidering the present condition of the county It is probable that the Board have:acted for its best interests, as Mohave county is not able to stand the expense of B loag and costly law sxit, without the cooperation of the other counties interested. The mat ter of railroad taxation will probably remain as it is until Arizona becomes a State and is in better condition to fight railroad corporations.
