During the Inquest several witnesses.
testified thar about the time of the acci-
dent they bad heard cries OF murder
from which it is supposed by some that
deceased was stealing ride and was
assaulted by some OF the train crew.
1t is more likely. however, that Bucher

THE New Orleans "Picsyune" says
that though the sugar bounty is now q
thing of the past, "the vitality it in
fused into the sugar industry is still
felt, and the steady growth has been
checked but little" Louisiana is in
debted to the republican psrty for this
revivified industry, and it is not likely
that the object lesson will be loet upon
the Intelligent voters of the State.

THAT Hon. Brewster CemeroD's min
ing interests in Sonora have turned out
so well is good news to the CITIZEN and
his many friends in this city. During
his long residence in Tucson Mr. Cam
eron was foremost among thcss who had
at heart the welfare OF this city. county
and territory. Any tie that keeps him
in touch with Arizona IS a mstter OF
congratulation to ali who have its well
fare at heart. Mr. Cameron entered into
a mining partnership with Gen. l.. Ii.
Manning in 1883, since which time they
have been stesdfast Ia their friendship
aud business relations. The fortunate
outcome, after innumersble disappoint-
ments, is the result Of mutual fidelity,
business enterprise, the ability to see
an opportunity and the courage to back
their judgment with their means. Mr..
Cameron will leave OF Saturday morn
ing for the City of Mexico, where other
business interests demand his attention.

ssMonte Crlsto'' by O'Neifl.

Every expectation was more than real
ICED In the production of Alexander Du-
mas, great melodrama monte Cristo," by
James O'Neill and his splendid company
at the Tamme, last evening. Thu house
was well filed, and the audience was held
speil.bound at times by the realistic scenes.
1t Is a source Of great satisfaction to
witness q production 10 which every detail
Is SO carefully executed and by such ar
could but philosophize on the advan-
tages that Las Vegans enjoyed last even
Ing In opera house, orchestra and the per-
formance that was baing staged in so gor-
geous and artistic name and this, too,
away out west in a country which the
president of the United States has but re-
Gently designated as coarse and ~uncivil-
lied. But Mr.. O'Neili seems to be better
posted on the condition of this country
than Is the president, and 1t Is almost GER
tain that his refined entertainment wac
never more in%telligently appreciated than
il was in Las Vegas last evening.
The stage setting left nothing to be ask
ed LOT, anu IN luis cOnuecIlOu MT. luun6
deserves to be congratulated in possessing
a theater in which Mr.. O'Neill's large and
numerous properties could be so succ sss-
fully handled. 1t is a we'll known fact
that but few houses in the southwest can
accommodate O'Neill and his "Monte
Cristo."
Praise is certainly due to Prof. Hand and
his orchestra for their clever performance
last evening. Judging them from an
amateur standard, their work is Of q high
order and will compare favorably with
many professional orchestras, who play
nightly before the footlights. The mum
bers given last night were played with a
delicacy OF shading AMI a depth of feeling
that prove that members have enjoyed no
mean order Of training.
The work of the first violin, clarionet
and %cornet, was exceptionally good, and
il the remaining members can elevate
themselves to the standard Of those mem
toned, Prof. Hand need not take a back
seat to any musical organization in these
parts. All that seems requisite in the
work of the orchestra is a little more pre-
.cision, which can be acquired by practice.

THE rELLow 4 FRAUD.
The Prospective Father -in-Law Of Col. Juan
Miguel La cerdA Has Something
70 Say About him..

10 me Editor Of the 0Dhy
rAJiQuE, N. M, March Oh, l890-WM
you be pleased to give me enough space In
your valuable paper to contradict an item
In your issue of the 4th inst. 1t was to tho
effect that a man calling himself Col. juan
Miguel La Cerda was about to marry ono
of my daughters. 1t is a lie! The said
man has been In this vicinity, Gran
Quivira, Chilli, for nearly two months,
getting our people to work In hunting for
q treasure he pretends to know Of. He
had fifty men at work for about two weeks,
night and day, and then told them that
nothing was to be found there. Many Of
them quit him, in disgust, but q company
OF about ten are still at work, In and about
the town, aud be promises to be back to
meet them within a few days and show
them the place where the supposed treas
ure really is. Up to date, nothing Is
known to have been found.
What l have seen of tho man Disguised
me, and I told him to keep away from my
house. However, he came again and
again, under business pretenses. until last
Friday, when patience ceased to be a
virtue, and | publicly ran him Off, warning
him never to show himself again on my
premises. Hs is a fraud, and l don't be.
lieve he ever told the truth, which l told
him pl ainiy, the last time I saw him.
1t would be we'll for everyone to be
warned as to his true character. You will
favor me by not publishing any Of my
family's name with his, much less on his
Tia Cerda's) representation.
Yours truly,
Il. A.. Dow.
