The Coconino sun., 1901-07-06

Prof. Frank J. Birtwell, an OrnithOlO- gist we'll known in the southwest, acci- dently killed himself while gathering some birds eggs from nest in tree on the Rio Pecos river. He became dizzy and rope was thrown him, which he fastened to limb and placed the other end around his body. The loop slipped around his neck and he was strangled to death before assistance could be given him.
 The badly decomposed remains of a man were found in gulch near Jerome a few days ago. He was between 35 and 40 years of age, nearly six feet tall, sandy complexion and had about a months growth of beard on his face: wore a canvas coat and vest, with blue lining; blue overalls and hObnail shoes. In his pockets were found silver watch, small purse containing three $5 gold pieces and $l.O5 in silver, knife, lead pencil and some matches. In his coat pocket was found Los Angeles Times of April 26. From the date of the paper and the condition of the body the man must have been dead nearly two months.

J. A. Kelly relates an experience similar to that which has happened in almost every neighborhood in the United States and has been told and retold by thousands of others. He says: "Last summer had an attack of dysen- tery and purchased bottle of Cham berlain's Collie, cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which l used according to directions and with entirely satisfac- tory results. The trouble was con- trolled much quicker than former at- tacks when I used other remedies" Mir. Kelly is well-known citizen of Henderson, N. c. For sale at the PiO- neer Drug Store.
