FURTHER PARTICULARS
Of the Death of ithe Man Supposed
 to be Billy Lane, OF this City.

ST. DAVID, JAN. H, 1oJc. EDITOR PRosPECToR: - Yesterday a deputy sheriff reported to me the find ing of the body of a man about three miles above this place. The verdict rendered was "cause of death unknown" When found he had on an undershirt, and a pair of pants were nearly off, leaving the body partially nude. No other clothes were found at the time. In the watch pocket of the pants were found two five-dollar pieces. To-day two men went out where the body was found and following the tracks, found the coat and vest belonging to the same suit as the pants. In the pockets were found badge marked "Tucson T. F. D. 1SS6," and by the appearance l would say he belonged to Hook and Ladder corps of some fire department, key ring and two keys, rolled plate collar button and small pair of tweezers with ear spoon attached and small bottle of Hoyt's German cologne were also found. No papers were found by which to tell his name.
 He was light complexion, blue eyes, light hair cropped close, moustache sandy, height five feet six inches and on the bicep of right arm was marked the British crown and cross with flower beneath. The suit of clothes were grey stripped and not very costly; coat was of a cutaway style. Undershirt was light grey, socks cotton and laced shoes. For further particulars call on or a | dress the undersigned,

The Mohawk Canal.

The Yuma Times says that for the past six CT eight months the Gila river has gradually encroached upon the Mo hawk canal at a point about thousand feet below the head-gate, and at pres ent it is only fifteen feet distant from the edge of the canal, which, at this is eighteen feet deep Mr. Geo. w. Nor ton, superintendent of the canal. by cut ting large trees and a1choring them firm ly along the river bank has succeeded in stopping any furthur cutting of the river, and will save the remaining bank. but to insure entire safety he has con structed a temporary dam in the canal some distance below, and it is the inten tion of the company to at once build a supplemental head-gate below the dam, which is then to be removed. A wing dame some 800 feet long will be constrc- ted to defect the current of the river from its present course. MT. l.. A. Hicks is engaged in preparing plans for the supplemental head gate.

The Sanitary Commission

Capt. Isaac N. Town, of Calebasas, came in Saturday from Phenix, and re- mained in the city yesterday, leaving for home on the afternoon train. He had been attending meeting of the Live Stock Sanitary Commissioners at the Capital City, of which he is a mem Der from Pima county. Mir. Town says the board has perplexlng problem on hand now. There IS a serious preva- lence of glanders among horses in the vi cinity of Tempe and other portions of the Salt river valley, for which the board is at loss for an effective remedy. Ths law does not authorize the board to have the diseased horses killed, as they are native stock. If diseased stock is brought into the Territory the board is authorized to kill it, but for an epi- demic among native animals there IS no such drastic remedy provided.
 With this exception the stock in all parts of the Territory is reported to be in most excellent condition, and MT. Town IS of the belief that there is a brighter future near at hand for Arizona stock men.

The ExcurSiOnists.

The Ray mond & Whitcomb excursion that was announced to arrive here Satur- day night, came in on time and remain e1 here all day yesterday. It consisted of vestibule train, composed of seven Pullman sleepers and q dining car, A number of the citizens of Tucson took many of the excursionists out iu carri- ages, and drove through tie valley and to all the points of interest Tn this vicin- ity. The party was made up of old and young. and they all seemed to be of that class that have but a passing acquaint- ance with poverty, and none of them evinced any particular desire to look up investments in this CT any other portion Of the west. They were supplied with every want on the train, and they did not even as much as invest in n Mexi- can tamale during their stay of twenty or thirty hours in Tucson. Those who hired carriages and drove those strangers through the city and valley, deserve credit for this exhibition of desire to show the possessions and surroundings of this ancient and honorable city.

He's All Right.

Hon. Burt Dunlap came in yesterday morning, and was on hand to do his share towards taking care of the excur- sion. Especially the ladies of the party were made to feel at home in his presence He was in his happiest mood, having last week sold train load of cattle at 516 head and a mine in the Aravapai Canyon for 520,0O0 cash. The only cloud that darkened his brow during the day was when Marshall Bob Paul promenad- ed on the depot platform late in the afternoon. NIT. Dunlap was applicant for the Marshalship, but he is satisfied that the second best man got the place, and that the office will be in good hands during the continuance of Bob Paul therein. MT.

A Pleasant Surprise.

The residence of Mir. J. s. Mansfield
 was the scene of a pleasant gathering on
 Saturday night. The occasion was the
 birthday of Mrs. Matilda Zeckendorf, sister of Mrs. Mansfield, and also of the
 Messrs. Goldschmidt. Mrs. Zeckendorf is here spending the winter, and num-
 Der of her friends concluded to give her birthday party, and the effort was a success, which was also source of ioy
 to those who planned and got it up, and
 qualification to Mrs. Zeckendorf. The
 whole affair was surprise to Mr. Mans field, and the first intimation he had of the festivities to be inaugurated under his roof, was when he went home Satur- day night with a mild case of grippe and found his large front parlor stripped of sofas, chairs, tables, etc., from carpet to ceiling, and transformed into an enter tainment hall with an improvised cur tain across one end. Invitations had been sent out, and the party consisted of about 90 of the immediate friends and relatives. Those present were first given several tableauX, in which some of the participants were the recipients of com plimt ntary remarks that could not but have been satisfying to the most ambi- tious amateur. After this part of the programme was concluded, the curtains and stage property were removed and the room was quickly transformed into dancing parlor, and those present, to the exileriZing strains of sweet music, took their places, and were soon lost to all things else, save the pleasures of the dance, which was kept up until o'clock in the morning, only interrupted by Mrs Mansfield. who had hurriedly prepared an elegant repast. The party was one of the most enjoyable of the season. There was no red tape to hinder anyone in the pursuit of pleasure, as each felt inclined Those who were there will not soon for get the occasion of Mrs. Zeckendorf's birthday party, and that lady will have reason to ever remember her Tucson friends.

A Sensible Calendar.

As usual at this time of the year the new crop of calendars is coming in, they are all sorts, shapes and kinds, and many of them can be had for the asking, but the best calendar that comes to our office is that published by N. w. Aver G Son, Newspaper Advertising Agents, Phila- delphia, and which they send postpaid to any address on receipt of D cents.
 The calendar is 14x22 inches, the upper portion being beautifully printed in colors, while the monthly sheets are printed with figures So plain that they can be easily seen at distance. Al though the calendar is an advertisement of their ever-grOwIng business it is at the same time so valuable to those hay ing use for calendar that year by year the sale steady increases.
