M. D. GAYLORD
Reached Ell PasO Last Night From
NOgaI-He says His Only Sur
prise Is That Denver People We're
Not Worked For A Larger Sum
Bv the ROouS Mr. GavIOrd
BY the Bogus Mr.. Gaylord.

M. D. Gaylord, manager of the cele
brated Dos CabeZas mine, reached
here last night from his home a;
NOgal, after an absence of nearly two
weeks.
Mr.. Gaylord paid the HERALD office
call this morning and said that be
had formed an opinion rs to the iden-
tity of the party who recently worked
Denver but would not like to accuse
any one without positive proof.
"a man was employed at the min es
last fall, said he, land 1 suspect him
OF working the Denver people. He
was thoroughly acquainted with all
things pertaining 10 the mine and
could have readily led anyone to be-
sented himself to be. The only wonder
to me is that he did not touch those
Denver people for more money. They
would have paid him q Thousand dollars
just as well as fifty. They got off
light.
st is we'll known fact that any
house selling machinery gives q buyer
ten per cent commission which goes
into his Own pocket and had the con-
fidence man closed the trade he could
have claimed the commission in cash
before skipping out.''
In speaking of the Dos CabeZss mine,
Mr.. Gaylord said:
''When L left the mine March II,
everything was in good condition
100 tons of high grade ore was
on the dump, which belongs to the
former lessees of the mine. They will
have it cleared up by May L.
The purchasers took charge March
IL and now have 35 men at work.
am taking five more along Nth me.
We leave tomorrow and will begin to
ship ore to the Ell Paso smelter right
away.
"The ore taken out runs as high as
400 or. of silver to the ton. 1t is
shipped to Casas Grandes from the
mine. It goes fifteen miles by burro
and the balance Of the distance by
wagon.
E. S. Stephens, one OF the stockhold-
ers and the manager of transportation
has just written that he has procured
zoo pack animals and 30 wagons for

the excitement in Chinatown had sub
sided. was removed to Ross undertake
ing rooms and an inquest held by
Justice Spencer. His verdict was
that death WAS due to natural

had been suffering with consumption
for some time and probably his sudden
death resulted from a weak heart.

Months.

The Missing Man When Last Heard
From Had Nearly Thousand Dol
lars On His Person And 1t Is Be
ieved That He Was Murdered For

the Money.
freely expressed by the friends of D.
B. Lohis concerning his safety and
present Whereabouts.
-ohis has not been seen or heard
from since January L, and the onlv
plausible explanation for his strange
disappearance is that he has been foul
ly dealt with. 1t is believed that he
has been murdered for the purpose of
robbery or revenge, or both.
Lohis was q prominent miner and
his only relative SO far as is known is
his mother and she lives in Georgia.
He Ia half owner of a gold mine of
great value in the state of chihuahua
known as the Santa Maria.
About the middle of February the
missing man left Chuichupa with 800
cash in his pocket. He needed the
money to straighten up the title to the
mine which he owned jointly with
young Mendenhall, whose father form
erly owned livery stable in this city
and is now a contractor on the Santa
F'e railway.
Lohis made his way to
s 81 Paso Ns,, and called He'd. at the
prior to January l to pay over the money
for certain deeds or contracts pertain,
ing to the mine, He raised the 500 by
his personal effects, said to be
of considerable value. to John Duthey
and others at Chuichupa. Mendenhall,
the elder, was to have been here when
Lohis arrived to sign the deeds. He
Lohis went to San Pedro, and from
there wrote letter to John Hedder at
Chulchupa, saying he would be back

A Blow For Cupid.

cit was pretty hard luck to have q
cloud over the honeymoon before we
had been married two hours" COM
planned the newly married man, land
the only excuse can offer for my hor-
ri BILE mistake was that the worry and
excitement of the day had driven away
what little sense 1 had remaining.
1--WE were married at high noon, aud
left almost immediately for the train.
L was kept so busy lodging old shoes
and rice when we left the house that I
must have reached the railway station
badly ratified. We reached the station
barely in time to catch our train, and I
rushed up to the ticket window at once.
Then, once more, we had to run the
gauntlet OF admiring friends who think
it smart to throw rice down ones collar
and have it sift down into ones shoes.
1--WE got aboard at last, and when
the train started 1 heaved big sigh of
relief. When the conductor came
around for the ticket 1 handed mine
over, and, otter looking at it for mo
ment, he asked if the lady was travel
ing with me.
That was the last straw, and 1 snap
ped out for him to mind his own bust
ness.
THAT is what 1 am trying to do
he answered coolly. 'One more fare,
please
''Then it flashed upon me that in
the hurry and excitement of the mo-
ment [ had overlooked my wife and
bought but one ticket, and 1 wilted
right then and there. paid the other
fare and tried to laugh it off, but the
look that my wife gave me will linger
with me as long as I live. 1t took me
two hours to argue my wife out of the
impression that didn't love her any
more aud she isn't fully satisfied yet"

Who Is lie?

We extract from one of the leading editorials of the Miner of last week the following:
 However. a claim in Alaska, entered and recorded by a Canadian since the British Columbia alien act took effect, is in our judgment defective in title and will not hold ifreguIarIy contested by an American citizen. We stake our reputation as a lawyer on this.'
 The editorial referred to and from which we clipped the above was con- corning the rights of Canadians to take mining claims on American soil. Now we insist that Americans should not be compelled to go into expensive litiga tion. but that the location notices should not be recorded by the commis- siOner.
 The Miner of last week came to us without the name of an editor. Who is that we" that stakes his reputation as a lawyer? 1t is entirely unnecessary to stake it on that proposition.

The Old Maids and Scientists.

The steamer Geo. w. Elder returned from the north yesterday morning with her scientists on board. The eXpedi- tion proceeded as far north as the Si- berian coast. The members of the par ty report very pleasant trip and claim to have advanced science several de- grees. The Elder was chartered for this trip by Prof. Hartman and it will always be remembered on account of the magnitude of the undertaking as well as for the number of old hOmely maids that were members of the party. One of the learned gentlemen, we are informed, bought hair seal skin for fur. and another purchased a skunk's hide for sea otter, and in a number of other ways members of the party were .taken in" from which we infer that these scientific explorers are returning to their eastern homes with a collec- tion that will paralyZe che scientists and old maids that could not join the party.

Never Winked.

Capt. Hinkle knocked piece off of the Ketchikan wharf going down on his last trip of the OriZaba and coming back on the AI-Ki, he knocked what was left into the bay. The old thing would hardly stand alone any how, and Ketchikan will now get good dock. 1t is said that Capt. Hinkle never blinked au eye when the old thing fell to pieces. He is the coolest man that runs i'll Alaska waters. He used to be on the Geo. W. Elder and his nerve was severely tested when the machinery in that boat was disabled while coming up from Victoria. The Elder drifted out into the ocean and was tossed around for several days, and roll, why everybody on board must have thought she would go stomach up, but Capt. HinkIe never blinked an eye. He was as cool as if he had been on land and he brought his boat safely back into the track of north bound vessels.

GOVERNOR BRADY.

Called Dow n by the News nan.-A Promise.
 Governor Brady came over from Sit ka on the Queen last week. He went direct to Juneau, where he was the guest of Merchant and Banker Beh- rendS. The writer met the governor ln Juneau and the News man had grIeV- auce which he was not slow ln stating. It was to the effect that the governor had been at Juneau and Ireadweu for two or three days and had not called on any of his friends in Douglas City. We were of the opinion, when we spoke to his eXCellency concerning the mat ter. that our people were not shown the proper attention and respect and we have not since come to any different conclusion. People in the past have in some manner come to the conclusion that Douglas is tied to Juneau's um- bilical cord, but that Is a great mistake and-the exact opposite Is the truth Ot the matter.
 Gov. Brady assured the writer that this omission was not Intended as slight and that his next visit to this part of Alaska would certainly include Douglas City.
 Gov. Brady is one of Sheldon Jack sons defenders. He thinks Alaskans nave been unkind to the superlntend- cut of schools and so expressed him self to the News man.
 The News man called the Governors attention to the fact that MT. Jackson had not been in Douglas City in over two years. in fact. that the two teachers on the island had never met him, but it is claimed that his assistant at Sitka is attending to these matters.
 The writer has every reason to be- ieve that Sheldon Jackson is con scientious, Christian gentleman and intends to do what is right. This Is what Is generally said of hIm as man, but that he has neglected his duties to the schools we are quite certain, and that the agitation of this neglect will bring forth good results we are also certain.
 We know but little about the rein deer matter. We have not had the benefit of Jhe various reports on the matter. One thing suggests itself to our mind, however, and that k that there must be something back of the whole reindeer business, something of a substantial nature, or the depart ment at washington would not cOu- tuUe the appropriations.
 Now the Governor claims that there are many natives in Alaska whose food supply Is being gradually cut OH ahd that Ihe reindeer can be made to take the place of the whale, the sea otter aud fur bearing animals that are used by the natives for clothes and food. That the white man will soon cause these animals to become extinct and the government must take care of these people and the introduction of the reiudeeris an experiment in that direction.
 In our opinion, this question will bean. investigation. The school money is not used for the purpose of intro. ducing the reindeer in Alaska, and ii We are gwen good schools, we are not ob- iectIug to the reindeer experiment.
