MURDERED IN BED
A Mexican Mysteriously Killed In
 Clifton.

On Sunday morning last Chase Creek was startled by the announcement that Jesus Jauregui had been murdered in his room, says the Clifton Era. Jus tice Monroe took charge of the remains and a coroners jury was impanelled, and after viewing the remains and securing all the evidence possible, the jury brought in verdict that the de- ceased came to his death from hands of parties unknown. pr. Thales exaln- ined tfe bcdy and found that the skull had been crushed on either side just above the ears by sume blunt instru- ment, like a miners hammer or the back of an ax. Deceased was killed in his own room, which opens on the street, at a point above the company s store, where the street makes sharp bend. The room is entered by several steps leading down from the street The family of the deceased lives in the upper rooms of the building, and testi- fled that they heard deceased grooming during the night, but that they did not think anything of it. as it was his habit to get drunk every night and come home in a condition bordering on delir- ium tremens. In fact, they stated that he frequently had fits. hence they paid no attention to his groans, supposing he was in his usual condition.
 The body was buried Sunday, and was followed to the grave by large number of friends. Jesus was a man of considerable prominence among his people. He had been in the employ or the Arizona Copper company for many years. and was a foreman in some part of the works. It is likely that his death will forever remain a mystery.
