"But past is all his fame: the very spot
Where many times he triumphed Is forgot"
III reading the item in your issue OF
yesterday, in regard to making park
out of the old Sixteenth street cemetery,
it brought to my mind the memory
Of one who, with all his kin, lies buried
there.
Who, among the old residents OF
Wheeling, does not remember William
Mckay, Familiarity and lovingly called
"Old Scotchey" Mckay? Preacher and
and educator, the mention Of his name
will, am sure bring the thoughts OF
many Of us who are nearing our jour
ney's end, back to our boyhood's days
again. He taught the young ideas how
to shoot, and did it well, and many OF
the most prominent citizens of our
town to-day owe their first teachings to
"Old Scotchey" Mckay. Like Gold
smiths schoolmaster, ii he was severe
in aught, the love he bore to learning
was IN fault. And though to US who
we're then boys, he was terror, yet,
judging him by the fruits Of his labors,
he deserved much more at our hands
than We have given him.
He lies to.dayin spot where, at his
own request, on the deCease OF all his
relatives, tho gate OF the fence sur
rounding his lot was to be locked and
the key thrown away. His wishes wero
carried out. Till this day the modest
tombstones dedicated to himself and
family have been left undisturbed.
Now, Mr., Editor, you mentioned in
your article that one or two monuments
might be left standing as relics, in case
the project OF turning the old cemetery
into park should be carried out. Ii
there are to be any relics left from the
wreck, think would be but voicing
the sentiments of all the older citizens
when suggest that the bones Of "Auld
scotchey" Mckay and his family be
left to rest where they are, and though
his monument may not be rs imposing
or artistic as some there, yet the clay
beneath will be rovered and loved by
all who knew him. Respectfully,
An OLD Citizen.

More Canal Improvements.

In the valley southwest of town the Orange Belt Land and Canal Company nave about seventy-fve men and thirty teams at work, at point thirteen miles down the river, building a new head gate and building about two miles of diverting canal 10 turn water into the old St. John canal, now the property of the Orange Belt Company. This com pany have engineers at work making estimates of their No. 2 Franchise, which leaves the Salt river about two miles below the Farmers head-gate and runs about twenty-two miles in soutb- west course, crossing and forming 8 junction with the St. John canal at a point about six miles beyond the Agua Fris. at which point the main canal commences and extends down the river about sixty-two miles. This canal will be twenty-five feet wide at the bottom and will be fed by the two branches, Nos. and 2, above mentioned, and by reservoirs on the Haysampa. This canal will cover and properly irrigate about 30, 900 acres of land this side of the Aqua Eric, and water will be running through one within thirty days and in the other one within sixty days. Under the main canal there is about l50, 1000 acres of irrigable land which is open to entry by the desert act. The lands under the two branch canals are all taken up and are generally patented. These canals will be great help to the farmers of the south Salt River valley that have been holding on and waiting for some enterprising company to come along and give them water. In fact will be 8 good thing for Phoenix and all incoming settlers hunting homes. We are glad to see such enterprising men come and hope others will follow. Any further information of this company and the lands under the canals may he had at the company's office in the Lewis Block.

THE WALKER CASE.
The Latest Move by the Plain
 tiff.
Appointment of a Guardian for The Lately Discovered Indian
 Daughter.

Readers of THE REPUBLICAN remem- Der the romantic story of the discovery of the Indian daughter, Juana, of the late John Walker, whose immense estate is now in litigation, his brothers on one side and his wife, whom he married shortly before his incarceration for in- sanity, on the other. The daught CT was found nearly ;hree months ago living with 8 Miss Pomeroy at Mesa, and there was also discovered valuable docu mentsry evidence of the girls rels- ton in the form of letters from Walker, in which he acknowledged her as his daughter and expressed iatherly in- tereet in her welfare.
 Later evidence of Walkers marriage by tribal ceremony to Pima squaw was furnished by witnesses, both h. dian and white. Action was at once be- gun by the girls attorneys, Messrs, AL exander and Israel, and formal demand was made upon Administrator Doran, of Pima county, for the possession of the estate.
 The latest move in the case has been the recent appointment of Miss Pom- eroy as the girls guardian. The matter will be tried in Pima county immedi- ately after the January term of the Su- preme court.

Newspaper Men Like Now York.

New York is just now filled with news paper correspondents from most of the cities in the country. They come from all states in the Union to watch the national politicians. They have been accustomed to the sights in Washing ton, Philadelphia, Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis, New Orleans and San Fran cisco. They were dazzled, though, by the preparations in New York for the Columbian festivities. The triumphal arches on Fifth avenue. the miles of bunting used to decorate the city hall, the subtreasury, the great banking buildings, the fine mansions on Fifth avenue, and the hotels, and the great stands for the people erected all along the route impressed them with the pos abilities of this town. They gathered at the Lotus club the other night and unanimously voted that when New York got up on it's hind legs and yawped over a great event it was the most triumphant cry and the most successful of any city in the nation.

An Indians Last Hunt.

Postmaster Peacock tells us that a son of Indian Billy Jewell, better known as Billy Key West, young man twenty one years old, met his death in singu- lar manner while hunting last week in the Indian hunting grounds in Dade county. Billy, who was a good hunter, went out and shot large buck. Think ing him dead, he stopped down on com ing up to him to cut his throat. The buck in his last agonies made for him and drove his horns into the abdomen of the Indian, ripping it open. After three days, Billy not returning, a party was made up, and, attracted by the bug cards, both hunter and hunted were found dead together-the Indian still impaled on the horns of the buckley West Fla.)

Reminding Him of a Fact.

A few days ago an elderly gentleman and his wife came down Broadway to- gether. A lady crossing the street fell down. The old gentleman rushed to her assistance and helped her in every possi- ble way. When he returned to his wife she shook her fist at him. Its all right; it's all right" he whispered. "Yes, know it's all right, she replied hotly. Here's an unknown woman falls down and you blow across the street to help her, and the other day fell down stairs and you wanted to know if l was prac- ticing for circus. New York World.

VALLEY ROAD. o Phoenix, Mt. Olive

,o,es of Incorporation Were Filed Yesterday.
csnItal Is all Ready and the ..,soIidation of Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa Near at Hand.

,,,i,les of incorporation of the ot1oix Mt. Olive and Mesa Railway mn,py were filed yesterday. The "- .,,oorstors are Thos. w. Hine, ,,s n'r;,min E. Lower, Bert Spencer, % r,,.i,k Scott and Chas. V. Barr. The ,.,,.r named gentleman is a resident of prn.feld, Mass.
 Ina incorporation was made under
 .,,tsr 5of title l2, revised statutes of ,.i,,pa bv which the necessity of a n,,rcbiss Is dispensed with.
 Tbs enterprise does not embrace & ,,sst railway project but under the '.nces only proposes a direct line be- 'Sssn % Phgnix and Mesa with the ,,y.ls,e of entering or passing around x. iormer town. The law under SSi,b the gentlemen incorporate is ,an'icsble only to railways exclusive of M ',,.rt car lines and necessitstes no r,nchise for entering terminal points 7, n,s,inv intermediate towns.
 " m. capital stock is $l ,500, 900, di- rjrd into 1900 shares, and nxed on a S..i, of Sl OOO to the mile. The length T,be line IS 20 miles and the esti- hated cost of construction, right of way ,Si motive power is equal to the apitsI stock.
 inc project has been in process of y,cbing its present degree of compile inn for considerable time, and was jsayed only by an inquiry into the ap- stability of the statute above de- sTioed The capital is already sub rrised and within easy reach, so that H,e delay in the commencement of op- cations is anticipated.
 The incorporators are all subscribers D ,he stock, and are gentlemen of &C., EDovedged wealth and enterprise. I,i. safe, therefore. to believe that in a ,bort time the towns of Mesa, Tempe md Phpnix will be brought so close to- e,her as to consolidate all their in- tsrasts
