 \ light headed freighter started out l from Stafford the latter part of 1889, bound for Bowie Station with a load of hay and $40 in cash in his inside pocket belonging to I. F. Campbell. As he was i from the white oak districts in the sun ny south it is extemely probable that he never had as much money as forty whole dollars in his possession before in his life and when he got within about 10 miles of Bowie he concluded he would absCond with the stuff" So he mount ed one of the horses, hitched the others to the wagon, and took French leave. He arrived Tn Bowie ali right, left his horse and told the people ther that he was going to Deming, x. NJ, for few days, got on the train, and has not been heard of since. At first foul play was suspected. but 1t is probable that ere this time he is back in his native state.

 From Charley Tribolet, who returned here from California last Saturday, we learn that he had a very rough eXper- fence in taking in train load of cattle from Benson to Los Angeles. He left Benson just before Christmas, and in consequence of the washouts was de tained at Yuma and also at COltOn. lie managed to get his cattle into Los An geles by swimming them across the river at that place. and having found a far demand fer cattle he sold them at profit that will justify his repeating the shipment in the next few days.

It was found by itself in a small cave in the Silver Bell. Its weight is S5 pounds. It was photographed by c. $. Fly, and at present rests in the large glass case in Frank Earl's assay office.
