MOrenci K. of P's.

On Tuesday night of this week the Morenci Knight of Phythias gave a farewell to J. H. Puckett, one of its most distinguished and active mem bers, which was well attended by members of this grand order.
 Messrs. J. H. Cox, W. R. Wayland w. D. Whipple and J. O. Baylor represented Clifton lodge and report an excellent time, returning witt happy recollections of the manner ir which the Morenci knights entertain visitors and extend their well wishes to departing brothers.
 Tuesday being regular meeting night, the lodge business was trans acted, after which all those present repaired to the Morencl Hotel, where an elaborate spread was disposed of. James Dunseath, one of the shining legal lights of Morenci, ably per formed the duties of toastmaster, and filled the hearts of the many ladies and gentlemen present to overfiowing with enthusiasm and at the same time displayed his ability for the position.
 J. H. Puckett, one of the oldest renci, in whose honor the reception was given, responded with "The Future," which was cleverly deliv- cred and far reaching, keenly touch ing the hearts of his many friends who so deeply regret his departure, but wish him unbounded success in his new home in New York.
 Mrs. A. L. Cummings, one of the active members of the Rathbone Sisters, delivered an address in be- half of the sisters that captured the hearts of all present in manner that would do credit to any of the able speakers of the land.
 Grand Chancellor Cox, in his usual fluent flow of speech, dwelt upon the shores of Pyhthianism in a short but interesting address. He told of the objects and beneficial lessons taught by the Pythian and the deep friend ship extended from one brother to another and a dozen other good things about the knights. He also represented Clifton lodge in express ing universal regret of Knight -Puckett.
 Messrs. Wayland, Whipple and Baylor, perhaps the best single handed takers in the order, repre- sented Clifton with the ladies, and were so deeply engaged entertaining the ladies that they had no time for speech making.
 The reception ended with a grand ball, the Clifton Knights returning early Wednesday morning.

EVENTFUL CAREER OF A
 BAD HOMBRE ENDED.
Manuel Gonzales Killed by Officers
 While ResiStin6 Arrest,

On Tuesday morning a young Mexi-
 can arrived in town, and hunting up
 the officers informed them that he
 knew of the location of two men
 whom he felt sure were implicated
 in the murder of Charley Wing, and
 the he would guide the officers to the
 place if they desired it. A posse
 consisting of Bill Spaw, Dave Arzate, Lou Kynnette, Bill Moore, c. F. Pascoe and M. H. Mason was soon or officers arrived at Bill Woods old guide left town. When the ranch on Sardine Manuel Gonzales came out of the house armed with a
 Winchester rifle and a six shooter and opened fire on them. After fir
 ing the second shot his Winchest CT
 became struck" and refused to
 work. He did not have time to pull
 his pistol, for the two officers in the lead of the posse returned the fire with such telling effect and accuracy of. aim, that the earthly career of the bold outlaw was speedily brought to permanent close.
 The dead man was recognized by Dave Arzate, as that of a man for whom he held warrant for burglary, which he had not been able to serve for the good reason that he always kept out of the way. Gonzales had repeatedly sent word to both Arzate and Deputy Sheriff Hobbs that they would have ''hot time" in arrest ing him, and he made his word good. Had his Winchester remained in working order the chances are that he would have shot some of the off cers before they realized that they were up against hard proposition.
 A coroner's inquest was held over the remains yesterday, and the facts elicited were as given above.
 The taking away of Gonzales is a good riddance to the community There are two many of his ilk loaf ing around the hills, who make their living by robbery and theft.
 WAS ONE OF THE MURDERERs.
 After a careful inspection of the body of the dead man the Chinaman who was shot through the knee recog- nized it as that of the man who shot him in the fight at Charley Wings garden. The Chinaman is very posi- tive on this point. This, together with the fact that Gonzales came out and made a fight without waiting to be attacked or even asked to sur render, would seem to be almost con- elusive proof that he was enc of the gang who murdered Charley Wing This bears out the theory of the officers that while only three men were actually interested in the shoot ing, that others participated in the crime. From information so far made public by the officers it would seem that there were at least five men implicated in the business, | which would include the two men captured at Silver City, the man who was wounded and the one with the | small foot who assisted him in getting away, and the man who was killed on | Sardine creek. Of course there may have been others, but this will de- | h

P. F. Crowley was down this week from his new camp near Metcalf, where he is meeting with remarkable success in the development of his claims, which adjoin the Antietam and the Shannon group of claims. MT. Crowley has a number of open ings and shafts on what he calls the Fraction claim, and they are all in ore similar to that which made the Antietam famous, and MT. Crowley is confident that he will soon have a mine equal to the Antietam.

O. P. Lovejoy, of Boston, who is interested in the Chase Creek Copper company, arrived last week, and is giving the camp a careful examina- tion. He is agreeably surprised at the magnitude and development of the district, finding it far beyond his expectations. He is also well pleased with the location and property of the Chase Creek company, which beyond doubt has future equal to the best of them.

Four new street car systems will soon be in operation, and the city is growing in all directions. A new water system is also being put in which will afford an ample supply of good water. The lots which Mrs. Webb sold to Clifton people last spring are now worth from $75 to S1OO each. Mrs. Webb is engaged iG the real estate business. Her address is No. l6th St.

Wm. Wilson, an old and respected gentlemen who has resided in the Duncan country the past twenty years or more, last week met with a most serious accident, which might cripple him, the balance of his life MT. Wilson is an industrious man and while attempting to raise an old cider mill, slipped and fell into his cellar. He fell feet foremost several feet, landing on top of some machinery which he had stored in the cellar. sustaining serious internal injuries. He has been confined to his bed ever since and it is likely that he will never again be able to walk. His many friends throughout the south west hope that it is not as serious as reported and that he will be able to get out again. Perhaps it would be advisable for him to come to Clifton, where he could receive the proper attention at the hospital.

The ERA is authorized to issue a challenge from the Shannon office and store force to the A. c. office and store force for a match game of ten-pins at the new bowling alley. It will be remembered that the Shan non and A. C's. played two match games of base ball, the result being a tie, and this will be a chance for revenge. The ERA will not attempt to pick out the winner as both sides have well established regulations as "bowlers." There are several on both sides who bowl an average in the neighborhood of 200, and no doubt the contest will be an interest ing one. The A. c. office force has always been noted for it's gameness, and will certainly not overlook this opportunity of mixing it with the shannon. This will only be starter, as team could be selected from the two which could challenge Morenci.

The eighth annual convention of the American mining congress is now in session at Fl Paso, and is attended by many of the most prominent min ing men of the United States and Mexico. Favorable rates were made on most railroads, and the attendance is large The Fl Paso & Southwest ern made a round trip rate of 5 from any point on the line, which was taken advantage of by hundreds of people. Hon.. Lamar Cobb was the only delegate who attended the con- vention from Graham county. The appoip tmants from Arizona were as follows: Ps F. Collirs, Mohave: F. M.

Work is progressing rapidly on the construction of the Shannon con verter plant. The steel frame for the building is in place, and the foun- dation walls for the plant are about completed. A new engine will also soon be in place. so that there will be ample power at all times. It is ex- pected that the plant will be running in January, after which the Shannon can justly claim one of the most com plete and modern plants in the ter ritory. The plant is not as large as several in the territory, but it can be added to under the original plans as occasion may require. The Shannon company will soon be prepared to do a regular custom business in treat ing ores, and will save the values of precious metals as well as the copper in the ore. This will be of great ad- vantage to the district, and will doubtless be the means of opening many mines now idle, the ores of which carry other values than cop per, but which are too low grade to ship to Fl Paso. The Shannon com pany has made very pronounced. success during the past year, but as yet it is only at the beginning of its career. The achievements of the Shannon are the more marked when compared with the early history of other companies in the district. The Shannon will yet be one of the big companies of the territory.
