Sunday morning the. entire com munitv were shocked and pained at learning of the sudden and unexpect- ed death Of Colonel Wm Roy of the firm of Roy X Titcomb, which occur ed in his apartments at the Monte zuma hotel, Saturday evening at ten o'clock.
 During the entire day deceased had been in excellent health and spirits. and bnt few minutes before his death two of his clerks, Me,srs. Bris- and Williams, had visited his room to borrow gun to go hunting the next day. As they were about leaving he rallied them upon their anticipated hunting excursion, and jokingly ad- monished them tn bring back sufficient game to go around. A few minutes later the occupants of the next room heard a fall in his room, and upon in- vestigatiOn the colonel was found ly ing upon the floor dead. He had evidently got up for a match with which to light his pipe. as the pipe freshly filled with tobacco was in his hand, when he was siezed with an at- tack of apoplexY and died instantly. Deceased was about sixty-tive years Of aye and had resided in Nogales about twelve years. A further account of his eventfullife appears elsewhere.
 He was buried Monday afternoon, q large concourse of citizens turning out to pay the last sad tribute, of re- spect to his memory. Ther funeral ceremony was conducted in the Ath- letic club hall. Rev. 0. J. Nave, chaplain in the regular army and Rev. Winfield Scott, likewise aschaplain in the regular army, but now on the re- tired list, both of whom are visiting Nogales, officiating. Both the rever. end gentlemen were also soldiers in the civil war-companions in arms of the deceased. Their remarks were particularly directed to the public services of the deceased, in both mili- tary and civil capacity, and they made them fitting exemplar of the duties of all citizens.

 The pail bearers then removed the casket to the hearse, and the process sion was formed. with the officers of the Arizona National Guard and the firing party holding the right of the line. The pail bearers walked beside the hearse, and the honorary pail bearers followed the mourners in car riage. The corteee numbered some fifty carriages, and starting passed the open lines Of school children, facing inward, extending from the bridge on Crawford street to Terrace avenue
 Reaching the Masonic cemetery the the military deployed and the usual military salute was given as the hearse passed. Then the firing party march, ed to one side of the grave while the mourners and honorary pail bearers ranged themselves upon the other. The pail bearers removed the casket to the grave, the final words of the burial service were read, the casket tenderly atd reverently ,lowered and covered, the falling clods echoing to the words "dust to dust" the final salute over the soldiers grave was dis charged, "taps" were sounded, and the last sad services his fellow men can give had been given to all that was left ofa brave and gallant soldier and good citizen.

showing being made on these properties.
On the j. 4 r.. where the principal work
Is being done. Ave men are at work sink
ing a shaft and are now down about
already In sight This ore has been solid
right from the surfacs and Is mostly OF
shipping grade About $50 feet from the
work done IN the & r., development
on the Hard Cash has shown up what is
apparently the same ledge and first
class showing is made for the work DONE
The mineral on both properties Is the same
as that Of the Golden Crown and IL f. evil
dent that the two carry the same lead
Surface work on the properties has open :
ed solid ore right under the wash In a
number Of places. and the work of sink
ing on the hest of these places has Only
just begun. yet the claims are in share 10
commence shipping They are located d.
rectly between the Hartford and the Gold
en- Crown. the latter OF which is now ship.
ping about eight cars Of ore per week.
Work on The Hartford has been sus-
having taken place at the lime OF the
breaking OF the whim and it is under
stood to be the intention OF tho owners
to put a plant on the property before
starting up again. Tho railway spur to
Hartford junction passes within forty or
nifty feet OF .he workings on the J. 4 r.
and thus places II in very convenient
position to commence shipping at any
time that II nay be desirable to do so.
