YOUNG MAN DISAPPEARS.
What has Become of Guy Alexander.
Young Rmchman Of Clifton
Neighborhood--Been
Missing Some Time.

Where Is Alexander Guy. A vonne
man about twenty-five years of age
VINO has lease on the Gordon ranch
OF clifton having contracted 10 care
Tor that place for period of len
years? This is a question which
many of the neighbors and friends
oil the young man have been asking
each other since Sunday last and
much perpleXity and anxiety regard
ing the sudden disappearance of Mr.
Alexander.
From what can be learned the
young man disappeared as quickly
ana completely as if the earth had
opened up and swallowed him.
He left his home late Sunday after
noon on his bicycle presumably for
short ride and was seen going tow
ard Clifton. AS far as can be learn
ed that was the last time he has been
seen by any friend or acquaintance
When he did not return home Sunday
night his father and mother who re-
side with him on the Gordon ranch
became uneasy, however. It was
thought that perhaps he was spend
ing the night with some friend. When
he did not show up next DAY inquiries
were started but to this time they
have been of no avail. Nothing has
been heard of Alexander. HIS parents
are utterly at loss for an eXplana-
ton of the mystery and are almost
distracted with grief
II is said that Mr.. Alexander Is a
young man of splendid character, of
a quiet disposition and has enjoyed
the highest respect of his neighbors.
He is of slight build, under the
average height. has blue eyes and is
of most respectable appearance.
The disappearance OF Alexander
has caused much excitement in the
Clifton neighborhood.

me residents and newspapers of

some extent from the earthnnnka
suock that coused such disaster
rms morning the Sentinel received
a letter from r. c. Hickman. who
WIN MS family removed from mis-
clty to Los Angeles about eighteen
months ago Enclosed in the letter
was a clipping from the Los Angeles

interview with W. H. Groves nnblisb-
ed In the Sentinel in which Mr. Crov-
es told his experiences while in Ios
Angeles, on the morning of the ereot
earthquake shock did considarohla

runs the story with comment under

Dear Sir
could not help laughing when l
read the enclosed clipping from the
Los Angeles Times. | will admit that
! did not see the article in your M.
per, The Daily Sentinel. but il Is one
OF the biggest preverications | ever
heard Of. In fact the earthquake felt
here on the nineteenth of April was
in severity just about like the one
felt in Grand Junction on the night
of November 12, 1901. No worse
There are old adobe missions that
have been standing for over one hun
dred years that do not even show a
crack from the effects of the earth
quake. In fact we were at the San
Gabriel mission Sunday and Il has
been built 1876 years. There is only
one way to judge the future. and that
is by the past Taking that as a cri-
terion. we are safe for at least 1856
years yet.
In that article copied from your
paper Mr.. Groves was considerably
ratified; for the Hollenbeck, at which
he claims to have stayed is only
stories high. And the Braly building
that he claims was seventeen stories
high is only twelve stories above the
ground and there is not even a crack

deferred by the wild tales that are

The British idea Of the United States
is very vague. They have certain i'm
pressions that are unjust and when | ar
rived over there on my way out / told
them so.
II was asked by reporters about the in
surance scandals on that occasion. and
I replied by saying that the real differ
ence between America and England is
that In America we wash our dirty linen
i'm public. while over there they do not,
You may depend upon II that there is
no love lost between the two nations.
There is a great deal Of gush over inter
national friendship but it is only gush
Prosperity, you know. Is not a promoter
Of love.
"A great many Englismhen think that
we are too eager for gain. but the more
acute and serious thinkers among them
do not believe that we are lot OF graft
ers They do think, however. that we
are too easily tempted by gain
As to what he meant when he said. as
reported by cable. that the American
eagle in Cairo had his tail between his
legs the bishop explained:
II think the idea in my mind on that
occasion was a condition in Cairo that
irritated other Americans also. namely.
the advertising OF quack medicines and
other things on the same order. with the
use Of the American flag II was this.
the use of our flag for advertising pur-
poses, in contrast 10 the splendid achieve
ments OF the British government in
Egypt. that l meant"
An interesting sidelight is thrown on
Oriental character by the following Incl
dent, told by the bishop:
In Egypt l was greatly impressed with
the splendid achievements OF the British
administration OF affairs there II had
been 80 years since l was in Egypt. and
the change wrought in that time is in
deed wonderful. No more brilliant jewel
shines In the crown OF Great Britain
than her achievements in Egypt
"On one occasion I was talking with
Lord Cromer. and In the course of our
talk II was mentioned how seldom II is
that the mind Of the Oriental changes.
and 10 this observation Lord Cromer
made this profound and astute reply:
"'You can change the face OF the land
by canals and railroads. and you can i'm
prove the conditions Of a people by intro
ducing a better government, but you can
not change the mind of an Oriental In a
quarter of a century. He will still think
Orientally. This is the basic fact which
we have got to remember in all our deal
ings with them"

sTA6BIN GAFFRAY.

There was a lot OF excitement i'm The
vicinity of the corner OF East avenue and
Pawtucket avenue about midnight last
night caused by the report that there had
been a stabbing affray and that the affair
was the result of "A political quarrel
II appears that Joseph Devlin. a man
about 40 yeahs of age who is employed
i'm the public works department OF the
city, got into an argument with an argu-
ment with another man who Is said TO
have been Bernard McAvoye. There was
talg regarding the political opinions OF
the men and n Is claimed that McAvoye
accused Devlin OF being "sponger' on

n few minutes and after II was over Dew
lin complained that he had been stabbed.
The latter made his way to Main street
square and reported TO Oficer McClaron
that he had been wounded and the man
was taken 20 the office Of Or. William y.
Kenney. where an examination showed
that there were two wounds. one I'm the
breast and the other in the side of the
neck.
The examination showed that the wound
i'm the breast was only an inch or two
below the heart and was bad one. when
but for the fact that the weapon had been
stopped by coming In contact with one
of the mans ribs would have been
rather serious affair.
The matter was at once reported 10
Lieut. Sweet at the police station and a
little later that officer arrested McAVoye
and he was locked up.
This morning the prisoner was arraign-
ed before Judge Emerson OF the district
court on a charge Of assault with a dan

he was seld in the sum of 5000 for the
grand jury.
