Wiley AIcorn Drowned.

About 8 o'clock Tuesday morn
ING Prof. G. W. Alcorn received
a telegram from Knoxville, Tenn
essee, stating that his son, Wiley,
had drowned on Monday evening,
and about two hours later he re-
ceived another message stating
that the body had been recovered.
Prof. Alcorn instructed that the
body be buried there. The man
ner in which this tragic accident
happened is not known yet, but
the telegram stated that a letter
would follow giving the full par
ticulars.
Wiley Alcorn was about twenty
four years old, and was one Of
the most gentlemanly young men
we have ever known. He was
we'll educated, and had taught
school in several parts Of Sharp
county, and at every place made
warm friends among those with
whom he came in contact. His
death will be deeply regretted
wherever he is known, AND the
manner in which he met his end
will make the sorrow of his many
friends more profound. He had
been in Tennessee for several
months attending a theological
school, and was preparing him
self for the ministry, The friends
Of the Alcorn family deeply SYM
pathize with them in this great
bereavement.

as an excuse for no better luck
that the amount of "bait'' carried

the line of the Southern Pacific X. X. in
the Southern part of the Territory OF
Arizona, and on the edge of the Santa
Cruz Valley, lies the City of Tucson.
That it was first settled several centur-
les ago has little to do with what we
have to say here, but yet its story full
of adventure and romance lends an in
describable charm to the old town.
Evidences of Thrift.-Its antiquities
are, however, fast disappearing before
the march of progress. The adobe walls
that formed the battlements of the old
Mexican Pueblo have crumbled away
and the mission ruins are falling to
pieces. Prominent public buildings,
churches, stores and handsome modern
residences have been erected with beauti-
full gardens, flowers and shrubbery sur
rounding many of the latter. Old streets
have been graded, new oncslaid out, and
other improvements made which give a
thrifty appearance TO the city.
Foreign Element of its population,
however, consisting OF about ten thou
sand people, a large Mexican element re-
mains, and its presence gives foreign
air to the community as also do The
adobe buildings III which they mainly
dwell.
