SKETCHES BY THE WAYSIDE.

They failed to meet. Like two
Dromios, business pursuits prevented
their trails from crossing during near
~ two days, although more than once
one had just departed from this place
or that Office when the other entered.
One had been accused of losing himself
an Mexican mountains and had there
Gore been the victim of the gibes and
sings and verbal arrows of his friends;
the other had been lost and to him the
losing was too serious matter to be
;sked about. Both had been i'll Mex

Gheir names are Chase-eX-Senator
Norton Chase of the law firm of Logan,
Gemond & Hardy of New York, mere
on business for Giants; and n. w.
Chase of Nosales, one of the owners
Of the La Calera mine. Up Phoenix
way the senator was allowed no chance
to offer denial until nearly the entire
town had celebrated his safe return in
q fanfare of fizz and booming of corks
rs for New York he had no such OPP
&ortunity to deny the report of his
peril and it was believed that he had
T-een in danger. Mr.. Chase of New
York chased Mr.. Chase of Nogales; at
intervals during two days witho t
upeeting the object of his search; and
Yeste day morning the Nogales man
went back to the mine, and they have
not met yet.

MAY BE A MURDERER.
j. Clarence Browns Suspicious Re-
lations with e w. Derry.

The man J. Clarence Brown under
arrest in Tucson for forging the name
of E. w. Derry to a draft for 81, 900,
is now believed to have murdered
Derry. After Browns arrest last Fri
day, September the %, papers were
found that proved conclusively that
Brown had been with Derry. 1t is
now believed that the mummiied body
found nearly three weeks ago in the
Pajarito mountain may be the body
of the missing Derry. The most i'm
portant link in the evidence of MUIR
der is here in Nogales. In the post
office here is check book mailed by
the Bank of California and addressed
to E. w. Derry. Postmaster Girls
void is also in possession of letter
signed by E. W. Terry and written
under date of September 9th on a
letter-head of the Crittenden Land and
Cattle company at Crittenden. The
letter is:
POSTMASTER, Noga1es, Arizona.
Dear Sir:-Please forward any mail for me to
Tucson, general delivery. Kindly give this mat
ter prompt attention and obnge
Yours respectfully,
L. W. DERRY.
It is known that Brown wrote the
Bank of California for the Oh eek book;
and Brown was undoubtedly the man
who wrots the letter from Critten-
den.

Lee Benton's Good Fortune.
able to pay.

Lee Benton returned Thursday from
Mexico, and has since been receiving
the glad hand from his friends. His
acquaintance have heard of the sale
of the properties owned Dy himself and
his partner J. HI. McKim, but the full
extent of his good fortune is only par
italy known. Two sales have been
completed. One was the Roy, a sill
YER mine in the Moctezuma district,
about 100 miles southeast of Bisbee,
sold to John Q. Williams and associa-
ties Of Denver, for the sum of 5000, 900.
The other was the Ell Captain and Ne
vada, gold properties, located 25 miles
southeast of the Roy in the Pin to
mountains. This was sold to Travis
IL Co, of Chicago, for 100000.
Both properties have been good pro-
ducers and have quantities of rich
rock in sight. The respective pur-
chasers of these properties will ins5 all
mills as soon as they can be secured.
Messrs. Benton and McKim have ,ano-
Their property out from Posa, FROM
which they are now shipping ore.

M4ny people in Negales have learn

for purpose and Town Marshal
Flewcl ing has demonstrated it well.
Thursday morning 90 unfortunates
took the carbonic gas route, and yester-
day Is more solved the mysteries of
the asphyxiation chamber. During
these dog catching days some funny
things happen. The marshal has de-
putized two. lads to catch untageed
dogs. The other ni ght one of the lads

when its owner, who happened to be a
Mexican woman was near. She pro

overtaken and the dog was rescued
Tommy, the pet of the Montezuma
wears his tag now. The tag had been
in the hotel cffice since the dog-tax be
came due but the dog catchers did MT
know it. Wednesday they roped
Tommy, and started away with him.
Col. Williams happened to see the
operation and stopped the procession E.

had cost Fifty it'd been just the same,

Vance Carothers, partners, with N.
w. Chase in the Calera property and
John L. Hunter, superintendent.
They left Calera together enroute to
Nogales, via Magdalena. In riding
along the Cucurpe river one hot after
noon the water looked cool and invit-
ing, and some one suggested bath.
1t was go, and soon, in costumes
even more fashionable than those seen
at Newport or Narragansett Pier,
the three We're soon enjoying them
selves. Presently the major went
ashore, proceeded to reinvest himself
with that which he had Invested of,
and had donned the garment
that buttons about the neck, when he
saw q short distance away some COWS
pursuid by baqueros. Before any of
the animals came up to him, one had
en- roPed, and the others tn ned i'll
another direction. The roped COW
was mad and before her captors could
tie her she broke away and ran in
the majors direction. When the in
furated animal saw him, she saw a
chance for revenge and charged. See
ing his danger and having no time to
secure weapon of defense, the major
In abbreviated costume ran to a willow
tree close by and then ensued an ex-
hibitien of the skillful work of NATL
dor that surprised and delighted the
two bathers In the water. After
lodging and countering the mad COW
several minutes, the animal saw the
majors clothes and charged with a
below of rage; but just as she came
upon them saw no victim, jumped over
the pile and ran away. When the
major saw he had escaped, he tragical
ly stretched alofS both arms and cried:
"By God, boys, She was after me,
wasn't she?" This is the story of
the episode the major did not tell.
The other episode involves John
Hunter. 1t has tinge of fish about
it, but Since the major and MIR Caro-
theirs as will as FRANK O Brien of Mag
dalena vouch for it, the authority
seems good. After the bath the three
travellers proceeded toward Mugdalena.
During the afternoon they arrived at
the Escondido ranch, Is miles from
the town. There they stopped for rest
and refreshments. When the word to
resume saddles was given Hunter said
his mule was tired so the story
goes, and that he would stay a while
longer and catch up to them. They
arrived in Magdalena. During the
night Hunters mule found the corral
where the other mules were and his
braying attracted the attention of the
major. When he saw the riderless
mule, he aroused O'Brien and told him
he feared something had happened to
Hunter. OBrien preferred sleep and
said he'd see about it manana; but about
daylight Hunter walked in. His mule
had become tired waiting and jumped
the corral and hit the trail alone.

TRAVELS Of CITY KEYS
They Are Now Doing Duty in
the Philippines.
WENT AWAY BY MISTAKE
Their Loss Caused Annoyance to the
City Officials and an Expert Had
to Be Called to Open
the Safe.

The original keys Of the Anaconda
city clerks safe are missing, and it is
supposed that they are now being car
ried in the pockets of a brave youag
soldier. who is now battling in the
Philippines. This fact has been the
cause of not little annoyance to the
city officials. The original keys have
been missing since April, 1898, when the
Anaconda boys left for Manila.
When Colonel O'Leary, then city
clerk, found it impossible soon after the
soldiers went away to open the safe, he
called in an employe of Yelverton &
Shone and had him open the safe.
Colonel O'Leary was seen in his office
yesterday in regard to this matter He
said:
This incident occurred in April, 1898.
] went to Helena, and during the trip,
l lost my keys on the train. NV son,
Arthur, had a duplicate key for the
safe and he gave it to me. Several days
later my son left for Manila, and soon
after his departure l discovered that
l had no key for the safe, and conse-
quently could not open it. l had a man
come over and open 1t for me. l do not
hHoW whether my son mas the keys IN
Manila or not"
The cost of the work for opening the
safe was S. On Monday evening a
bill for $10 due to Yelverton & Shone
was presented to the couoncil. Five
dollars of this amount was for repairs
and the other S. was for the opening of
the safe. When this last item was
read Alderman Collins said:
Il don't see why we should pay this
last SIS. AS understand it, this amount
is for services which were required to
open a safe in the Office of ex-City
Clerk O'Leary. Colonel O'Leary's son
took the keys with him to Manila, and
l don't see that the city should pay
this IS. If the coloneIs son made
mistake, let the colonel pay for it,"
The bill was ordered laid on the table

away once more. Then the Turk grave
ly straddled him and slowly pulled him
over and laid two of Mr.. Marks Shout
ders on the mat Time, nine minutes.
Langdon came on the mat warily. He
and the Turk rubbed their heads to-
gether and fenced with their arms for
time until Langdon found the big arms
twining about him and suddenly broke
away. Langdon then tried the walk
around tactics, keeping off the MAJ.
The Turk began to take an interest in
the game. Come here" he called and
when Langdon approached grabbed his
arm and yanked him closer. For few
seconds the Turk leaned against him as
a tired man will lean against a fence
when meditating. Suddenly Hall Adali
shifted a muscle. 1t took all of Lang
dons strength to pull away. He went
spinning against the scenery from his
own effort while the Turk stood i'm
passive. There was more sparring and
then the Turk dropped on all fours.
Langdon sought a held but could do
nothing. Half Nelson's were broken
with seeming ease, and when Langdon
tried to grip the massive body and turn
1t over he made no impression. Get
me a derrick" he called Suddenly
there was an upheaval of brown flesh
and Langdon went spinning away.
Five or six laps about the mat were
walked. Langdon keeping off the can
vas. Finally he concluded it was time
to wind things up and saying Come
on, went in. He struggled nightly,
but 1t was all over in a few seconds.
once more his shoulder touched the
floor. The time was IL minutes.
Mark G. Lewis who, with Frank e.
Tracy, is managing the Turk. said after
the performance: I'VE go from here
West and will probably have match
in Spokane next. Moths communica-
ton in the Standard this morning Is
unworthy of any attention. A man who
made the poor showing he did at Butte
has no right to talk of another match.
Why Langdon here Tonight did better
than Moth
In regard to the dispatch from Chi
cago that L. NJ Houseman will enjoin
the Turk from accepting any manage
ment but his. it does not seem to be
generally understood that Mr.. Tracy
and l are only Mr.. Houseman's repre-
sentatives. The Turk is under an iron
clad contract with Mr.. Houseman,
sporting editor of the Chicago Inter
Ocean, and w. d. Russell and H. G.
Sommers of the Columbia theater to
wrestle under no management but
theirs for two years. Some one in Butte,
it appears, wired back to Chicago that
other parties were seeking to secure
the management of Hall Adali and had
been talking to him. This led to the re-
port from Chicago of prospective litiga-
ton"
