last week at Tombstone. There were
six indictments hanging over Alvord
and as many more over Stiles. Alvord
at the last moment pleaded guilty and
was sentenced to two years i'm the pea
itentiary. Stiles pleaded not guilty and
his ease was set for trial. Before the
time of trial his attorneys moved u
done he moved to quash the indict-
ment on the ground that the govern
ment had promised Stiles that it
would not prosecute him if he would
turn states evidence. United States at

have been subpoenaed to testify as to
what he testified to them.

home. He has Keen in the hos oital for
a long time and his father has been
here for the last six weeks, having
come for the purpose OF taking the
young man home as soOn IS he vas
able to travel. His illness was believed
to have resulted directly from hare
ships endured last July, on an overland
trip on foot to Phoenix, from the Tonic
dam site, through the wonderful Salt
river canyon. An account of that peril
GUS journey was printed in these col
umns at the time. 1t may be recalled
by the reader that his companion was
John Bradley. another young man who
is still here. They had been in the en-
ploy Of the geological survey and de-
cided to come through the canyon as
an adventure. They found all that they
weather was intensely hot the travel
ing worse than anticipated, and to
make matters worse, they ran out of
provisions for a couple of days before
reaching the white settlements again
The fare of the preceding day or two
had consisted mainly of canned veal
so that altogether they had little with
them when they got to he valley except
an appetite, and that was so big that
they could hardly carry it. At the time
they felt no i'll effects Of their journey
except that they We're distressingly tir-
ed, scandalously sunburned ard outra-
geously prejudiced against came
veal. Mr. Bradley has never suffered
physically from the exertion. but Mr.
Aston never did get to feeling real
good again. He was employed for a
| time at the Hotel Adams but soon
after was taken with q sort of fever
| from which he is just recovering.
