A Chinese doctor we'll known here
has mysteriously disappeared. He
was an old man and nearly blind. His
disappearance was noted last Monday
by Col. Egan, who called to collect
rent, and instead Of finding the old
Chinaman a voting one appeared and
claimed to be the old original. The
colonel, who was well acquainted
with the old fellow knew better and
refused to identify him. The young
fellow then claimed that the old fell
low had left but could not tell when
nor where he had gone. The colonel
on enquiring of Agent Smith learned
that the Chinaman had not left on
the train for Smith would certinly
have remembered him as he had done
so much Wells-Fargo business with
him that be know him well. Mr..
Smith stated there we're a number Of
express packages addressed to the old
fellow and that the young man had
tried in vain to get them. All Of
this coupled with the fact that no one
has seen the old fellow since the food
has created a strong suspicion of foul
play. The old Chinaman was reputed
to have considerable money and had
said, about a year ago, that ne was 60
ing back to China, but ne did not go
at the time he intended to and it is
probable that if he had left someone
in town would have known It. Is this
a case of Observation-Disclosures or is it
Highbinder-manaism? The case is
being investigated,

The ascension of the Coronado in
