His Body Found.
lsan 3farcial Bee


 During the month of December last Antonio Arias' who had resided in and about Con+adero. this county, for a number of years, and was about 79years of age, suddenly disappeared. and his friends long since came to the conclus- ion that he had been foulIy dealt with. He was in charge Of the cattle interests of Pablo Gomez. and was known to be the possessor of considerable ready cash. 4 few days ago sheep herder, while tending his fiocks in the malpais, this side of the San Andrea mountains, discovered the badly decomposed body of 8 man in an opening in the dark colored strata. An empty pocketbook found near the remains furnished evil dence that the bleached frame had once been the body of Antonio Arias, and an examination of the skull showed the course of two bullets through that member. Undoubtedly the man was murdered and robbed. The prospect of his assassin being apprehended at this late day is very slight indeed.

Mesa Campers Returned with a
 Dead COmrade. TDaily GaLetteJ.
 Lewis, Malin and John Horn reached Phoenix Friday night from Flagstaff with the remains of thelr brother, Charley, who met his death so unfortu- pately in the hills. They took team and finished their sad journey to Mesa, arriving there about clock Saturday morning.
 The funeral was held Saturday after noon from the residence of H. J. Horn. one mile east of Mesa, and large num- Der of friends were present to pay their last respects to the deceased, who was well esteemed by the people of tbe community. The services were con ducted by the ministers of the Mormon | church.
 The following Is the story as near, perhaps, as it will ever be known, as there were no witnesses; Charlie and another member of the camping party were hunting. HIscompanIon return ed to camp leaving Charlie to continue his sport alone. A deer was found dead up the canyon some distance from him, which it is supposed he killed. From the surroundings It is thought he at tempted to climb over little ledge and either dropped his gun or tried to pull It up after him when il was discharged The ball entered his heel, came out at the calf and entered again at the thigh, came out in the groin, entered again in the stomach and passed through and came out at the side. His death was not instantaneous, as he had managed to bandage the calf of his leg, but his sufferings were evidently not greatly prolonged. The searching partles that had so much trouble in finding him failed by looking too far away from camp. They were looking for lost man and net dead man. The rest of the camping party returned from the hills overland Saturday,

"As large number of patients lack

which is less exciting than wine as a
