The McCartneY Suicide.

The CITIZEN yesterday was in all prob ability little premature ID stating that Mir. John P. Me cIartney had been mur- dered, as is evidenced by the following telegram from La Constitucion, the of ficial paper of the government of So- nora.
 "O1r colleague, Fl Fronierizo. of tTuc- SOD, has published a telegram dated 1Oth inst, from Nogsles, announcing the death of an American citizen by name of John F. Mccartney. It IS stated his body was found in the road of Santa Ana and that although the rumor has been mooted that he committed suicide, hls friends iusis. in the belief that he wss murdered and robbed of large sum of money.
 "Mr, Jobn P. Mccartney according to the information received from the gov ernmsnt authorities, committed suicide in 8 room of Bsdills's ranch, In doing 90 he made use of a revolver, the prolec- tile from which penetrated his eye and crashed through his brain. The eveu- ing before committing the act he ss- tempted to behead himself with knife, being prevented by Mir. Florencio DsvI- Ia. he inflicted but small wound in the throat.

THE popularity of Mir. Thos. Cordis will ensure his election as probate judge which office he will i'll with honor, in telligence and safety. In the fulfilment of his duty he will know neither friend nor enemy when right must suffer by the acquaintance. This office is among the most important in the gift of the people. inssmuch as. to 1t is entrusted the education of the youth and the sdminis- trstion of the deceased. When people die-snd whether they leave much or little-it is always a comforting sssur- ance to them to know that such proper ty as may be left will not be squandered and eaten up by useless court costs and scheming msnipulators, but will go to the mBintsinsnce and support of those they loved dearest on earth. If Tom Cordis be Probate Judge this assurance is made doubly sure. The people are quick to appreciate these truths and will remember them on next election day.

New Homestead Law.
[JournaI Miner

4 new land bill of great importance to persons who have heretofore exhausted their rights under the homestead and prs.emptiOn laws has passed the senate, aud with important amendments has been adopted by the House of Represen- ta.ives and returned to the Senate for concurrence in the amendments.
 The bill as passed by the senate per mIss all persons who have filed under pre-enptirn or homestead law, but who for any reason have failed to acquire litIe to lands, to again file under the homestead law and acquire title to not more than one quErter section of public land.
 The first amendment added by ihe House of Rspressn iaiives auth prizes re gisters and receivers to grant leaves of absence to those who have made entries and who "by reason of drought, whole or partial destruction of crops. sickness or any other unavoidable casualty" are unable to secure support for himself. herself or those dependedt upon them, such absence not to exceed one year at any one time. though the period of such absence rhsll not be counted ss residence upon the land in making p-oof aud pea tectlng tItle.
 The second amendment pro tides thst persons who have made bOmestesd en- tries for less than one quarter section may make additional entry for land cor tiguous to the original homestead not exceeding with the land m such original entry 160 acres, or Ii the eDtrymsn elect they may relinguish the original entries aud make new ones the same as though they bad never made entries. except that DO fees or commission shall be ex- acted from the entrymen for such sd ditionsl or new eutrles. The residence which has been made upon the original entry will count as residence upon the the additional or new entry in making final proof. and where satisfactory final proof has already been made on the ori ainal entry DO proof on the additional or new entry will be required. but patent may issue.
 This will be glorious news to the thou sands of persons anxious to acquire homes but debsrred from doing SO un- der existing laws. There is little doubt that the bill will pass the senate as amended.
 Copies of the bill can be had by sd dressing members os congress.

Among the Cliff Houses.

The canyon IS located about six niles north of Delong and sswver's ranch. Our road, after passing through the gap near Deloug and Sswyer's, follows tho San Juan road until about one mile to the north oi Johnson's ranch, where we turned to the left and entered side canyon, not more than two thousand feet wide at its mouth. Just ss we enter this canyon, under large pine tree. and perhaps one hundred feet above the val ley, is & spring that furnishes water from a number of Navajo hOgsns. The mouth of the canyon is feuced in, and aB we drive up 1t Indian corn fields are passed at intervals, some of which are quite large. The walls of the canyon. precip- itous at all times, grow higher ss we proceed The valley. where not in cul.i- vation, IS covered with a dense mating of grass. in many places resembling the blue grass pastures of the east, where stock mas not been allowed upon them during the period of their growth.
 Our dinner camp was made under the overhAn giug branches of a large red ce- dar tree. on 8 carpet of deeply matted grass. Above us, but accessible, was B ehff house, built in a crevice of the cliff. The entrance to this prehistoric build ing was quite ST all. but large enough to enter readily. Inslde we found three corBered room, the longest side about l2 feet. the end perl sps seven feet. The rock walls were on but two sides. she nOuatsins furnish the wall of the third side. A small peep hole looked out in to the valley. The walls made of small stones laid in adobe mortar, were re- markedly true, the one corner being as truse sns angle ss could be built by & moder manson. The room WAS about six foot high, but vBs filled up for a couple of feet with debris.
 Below this dwelling was the ruin of another, built st the level of the valley. and TOW entirely ID ruins. only a small portion of the walls being visible.
 In a small side canyon opening into the man valley. bu, few rods away we found three more cliff dwellings. in 8 back room of one of which we found a branded hide, evidently of two year old animal; the hide was branded with the letter "R, and was evidently the re- suit Of & Navajo thievery.
 Near these cliff dwellings a rock was covered with the print of hands ID diff terent colored paints.
 Above our dinner camp we saw three olIff houses, one of which was not more than two feet high. They were all mac cessible, being high up in the walls of the canyon.
 Near one of these dwellings,, on an in- accessible stone, is what appears to be inscriptions ID some strange hieroglyhio characters.
 The canyon is about four miles long, and one of the most picturesque in seen cry of any the writer has seen ID New Mexico.-Gsllup Register.
