Frank Kibbey.

In view of the many times repeated assertion made not only in local paper
 but TecOpied in territorial papers to the
 eff ct thst Frank Kibbey had been al-
 lowed the free usage of the streets when
 he desired to leave the jail and while such reports may go uncOrrected they
 naturally would be misleading as to the
 true status of affairs and cast reflections
 UGjustiy upon the officer in charge. To
 this end the CITIZEN reporter inter-
 viewed Sheriff Brown. He said this took
 place while l was absent in Nogales.
 Frank Kibbey wanted some articles of
 clothing, underwear etc. and not being
 able to get the proper measurement of such articles as he naeiiiee;di Mir. Sullivan accompanied. 1E.ioDey to l.. Zeckendorf's
 store where he made some purchases and from there to Fleishman's drug store where he made few purchases and 1 from thers direct to the jail" These were the utterances of Sheriff Brown
 and were cOrroborated by Deputy Sul- | livan who was present and made the identical statement. There is no sta tutes which inveigh against this act of the sheriff and as he was keeping within 1 the province of the law and the sO-called
 freedom of the streets" was few mi nutes on the streets only 10 make ne-
 cessary purchase accompanied by an of | ficer of the law, the local press and the l territorial press will understand that a
 great noise has been unnecessarily made and imputation cast upon worthy of ficer who has not violated his duties.

Pencil Sketches of our Future

In casting around the city for straWs good wind generally prevails anu the straws gre ge eaerally blown right under the reporters eyes. Tucson, situated as it is, upon an elevation of some 2I00 feet above sea ievel, with ranges of mountains stretching out in the distance upon all s;dss with extensive valley reaching way beyond for miles and miles. presents to the observer a loca- iion one of the healthIest ir the Ter rltory for commercial and IopUlOus city. Without any division as to ssnti- ment there evidently will be a division as to North and South Tucson geograph- icslly %i1h the railroad line as the divI- sion line of such expression. Tucson s march will be onward. If there has teen any spirit of retrOgression hereto fore It will now meet opposition by a prevailing spirit which sayS:"We will go ahead instead of all the lime looking backwards" l the water supply of the city is not sufficient at present to supply the needed requirements of these new additions the santa Cruz canal ard the Sabine canyon impe ndiEg project will give all needed water supply for irriga- tion, park purposes and fire department requirements. The Sablno canyon pre- ject is to jmpcund Tn a suitable reser- voir 2 billion gallon supply of water The pressure from this reservoir would exterminate fire in short order and cause beautiful fountains to play in a manner paradisical m the Lew park at Military Plaza. With a pubic school building the finest In AIizona, with a university devoted to the leadinz in- dusuies of the Territory. with a most healthy location and suitable drainage, w'th natural geographical and acquired at aLments as to the needs of a future commercial center, with crude resources unlimited, Tucson today has most bril- liant opportunities to become a metrop- clis in size, population and commercial standing not even outstripred by Los Angeles and Ei Paso.

The Ghastly Discovery Recently Made |
 the Mountains of Utah.

The Ghastly Discovery Recently Made in the Mountains of Utah.
 A most ghaStly discovery was made by Harvey Thomas, a prospectOr in the mountains to the south of Salt Lake City. He had been trying to follow a blind lead for some time under the be- lief that he would find an old aban- doned mine, of which many stories have been told. He followed what he considered an old trail deep into the mountains and came to a place which showed signs of having been once in- habited- Deep into the canyon, which was almost hidden at the mouth of a heavy growth of bushes and vines, he found stone house. It was small, and had apparently been made for the pur- pose of holding something which was never to get out, for there was neither door nor window. The place showed such evidence of great age that Thomas had no scruples in breaking into the house, and the sight which met his gaze when he did so nearly caused him to faint.
 Lying on the floors and propped up around the walls of the little stone house were the headless bOdies of sew enteen people. The bodies had been prepared in some way and retained theirsform and appearance as if they had been dead only short time. Not head was found about the place. The bodies were those of men and women and two children. On reporting the discovery at Salt Lake an investiga- tiOn was made, and the belief is gen. eral that the bodies are those of people who were killed in one of the many carly Mormon wars which took place when the country was being settled What has been done with the heads is a mystery which no one has attempted to solve. There was nothing about the bodies to give the slightest clew to their sla,,4,%r-

RECEIVING MANY LETTERS,
Capital Looking for a Place to In .
 vest

In years past capital has not been anxious to invest in the average Arizo- Ia property. People have been looking for place to come to and secure a home, but until lately there has not been much unsolicited inquiry for a place to put in good hard dollars in large amounts.
 h this respect gentleman from Den. yer is now locking over the situation hero to make an investment that will not only bs apaying ora to him, bot vi be of much advantage to the city He IS calculating on coming here with sufficient capital to erect several busi- ness houses and quite a number of dwellings for the purpose of renting.
 Ths !s something that has been need ed for some time, as th ere is a scarcity of both business horse and residences In 50 days from the present. date there will not be vacant house in the city and with the number of people that are now coming Phenix will not have room enough t. accommodate the visitors.
 Every mail brings inquiries regarding PheLix, and the most of them indicate that the writers intend to come to Phe- nix this fall to settle.
 A prominent real estate man said to- day that bis mail was becoming very heavy one, and the major port. t.On of tbe letters he received were for the purpose of inquiry. This shows that the people of the east are beginning to take more than a passing interest in Arizona. TLere will be an influx of people here this fall that will fill the town up SO that there will not be room for the ac commodation of all, unless houses are built for the accOmmo6a of the many wnO are coming. The gentleman from Denver could not find better locality for this class of investment than right here in Phenix, and he will find that he cannot build houses enough Phenix Herald,

Used to Wear Boots

''We are the victims of fickle fashion, 7" said F. A. Hendricks, a. Boston leather manufacturer. Formerly nearly every ten men wore boots, but now shoes are the prevailing style of foOtgear. As the amount of finished leather required to make one pair of boots is sufficient for nearly three pairs of shoes this var iation of fashion makes matters trifle cerulean for the tanners. For the first time in the history of the trade tho upper-leather tanners are uniting to control the output and maintain living prices. The proposed curtailment this season will amount to one million sides of finished leather. Seventy-fve per cent. of the eastern tanneries will either shut down or materially curtail their output. -

a Heifer in a Rnthtnh.

A number Of cattle were landed at
the Weems line wharf yesterday morn
ing. Their driver was James Groucher.
The animals seeming quiet, Groucher
started to drive them without any
ropes. On reaching Conway street a
heifer, which had been moving along
very placidly, became very much ami
mated, and made things very interest
ing for the balance of the herd. The
street being too wide for her she danced
up an alley between 100 and 1871 Con-
way street. A gate blocked her way,
but only momentarily, Through it she
went, and then another obstacle pre-
sented itself, Mrs. Emma A. Poole, who
proved to be no more of a stop to the
heifer's onward progress than Fort Car
roll would be to modern man-of-war
In moment Mrs. Poole was knocked
to the ground, and in the kitchen it
went. There some destruction of prop
erty was committed. but not enough to
satisfy the heifer.
The dining room was next entered.

ALL IS OVER.
The Wife of the PreSi-
dent Passes Away.
Though Death Was Al
ways Imminent,
The Shadows Began to Gather
Only Yesterday.
The Efforts of Her Physician Were
Directed Only Toward Softenlng
the RIgor of Certain Death.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-LAssociated
Press Mrs. Harrison is dead. The
gentle sufferer passed away tonight sur
rounded by her husband, her children
and her aged father. At nightiall it
was evident that the end was near and
indeed the president was appraised days
ago that death was momentary pos
sibility.
There had really been no hope since
before the family left Loon Lake three
weeks ago and the procession back
to Washington was of the nature of q
funeral cortege. 1t was announced last
night, though death was at all hours
probable, that the patient might survive
several days. This morning, however,
her condition was found to be worse
and DR.. Gardner was summoned to the
White House an hour earlier than
usual. He found the disease making
rapid progress and Mrs. Harrison sink
ing rapidly and decided that she could
hardly live until sunset.
When he called at ll:l5 a. m. she
seemed to be barely alive. He called
again soon after noon and as he was
leaving told the newspaper men in
waiting that the patient had not passed
into the coma which Immediately pre-
cedes death. At 3 80 he made another
visit and found Mrs. Harrison's con-
clifton materially unchanged.
About dark the shadow which all an
ticipated, but which was none the less
heartbreaking, began to descend and in
few minutes it had settled upon the
White House, pervaded the capital and
filed the heart of the chief executive
and his stricken children.
Nearly all the members of the diplo-
matte corps called at the White House
during the afternoon to leave messages
OF sympathy for the president and
family. DR.. Gardner was at the
patients bedside constantly. He went
away two or three times to attend to
other professional matters but at no
time was absent more than half an
hour, He frankly admitted that Mrs.
Harrison's death was only question Of
few hours and all efforts were devoted
solely to making the patient as COM
Portable as possible in her dying hours.

An infatuated Tom cat.

Miss Ethel, daughter of D. w. Pease,
Of West Carrollton, is the possessor of a
Maltese cat. Early in the spring the cat
deserted his place in the house and took
up his abode with the chickens, remain
ing day and night in the chicken yard.
He soon formed an attachment for an
old black hen, which was reciprocated.
and the two became inseparable. Thus
matters went on for some time, when
the hen, remembering that the usual
season for multiplying and replenishing
her species had arrived, selected a nest
in the poultry house and made known
her intentions in the usual way. She
was at once supplied with the necessary
eggs and commenced business. This, it
was supposed, would end the rather
strange Irritation and Tommy would re.
