WH|SKtY AND ROBBED OF
 sl,000
SINGULAR ADVENTURE WHICH BEFELL MINING MAN WHO HAD RECENTLY OBTAINED FORTUNE BY SALE OF MINING CLAIMS.

TUCSON, October 2S.--John Seanlon, wal known mining man of this dis trict, is said to be minus 5000 owing to a visit be paid to the "bad lands, " better known as Gay alley.
 It would seem that Scanlon, who is about 60 years of age, recently received something over $2O,000 through the sale of mining property in which he had been interested. Saturday he went to tho bank, deposited all but $2500 and gave 5000 of this to h;s niece, whom be saw off on an early morning train Sunday. He then told the cabman to take him to his residence of Broadway, but it appears that instead of doing this the jehu drove him to the glittering light district and there left him.
 Wallapai Clark, his mining partner, became suspicious when he did not turn up at the hotel, and, seeking Policeman Moon, started of in search for him. About II O clock in the morning, Sun. day, they found him in the home of one of the women in the tenderloin, liquor having got little the best of him.
 When taken home, Scanlon was minus 5000 of the wad he had with him when be left his niece ct the depot, but could not account for the disappearance of his bank roll.
 Once before when Scanlon came to Tucson with & pile of money, he was rolled for some s700, and it is believed he was dealt with in like manner this time. As on the former occasion, the cab driver was the one who had taken him to the red light district.

Obituary.

On May 80, 1908, death entered
the family Of J. P. Russell, of
Clinton, Miss, and claimed for
its victim his son, Wallace
Galloway. He was 19 years, l
month and Z days old. He was
sick four weeks, but bore his
sufferings patiently.
The sympathy of the entire
community goes out to this
doubly bereaved family. Only a
few months ago the wife and
mother Of this home entered the
Haven of rest. Wallace
seemed to think his mission on
earth was to care for his mother
IN declining years, but mother
was first there" to welcome her
son home.
Wallace entered Mississippi
College last fall; while there he
was converted and was baptized
into the fellowship of Clinton
Baptist church by Rev I. P. Lip
sey. He was of a quiet, reserved
nature, an obedient and respect
full son, always showing much
devotion to his parents. He was
esteemed by his teachers and
was a favorite with all who knew
him With sad hearts we say to
the bereaved family: Dear sor-
rowing ones, look up. The poet
hath said:
There is no death!
An angel form walks DER the
earth with silent tread;
He bears our best loved things
away, then we call them dead. I"
Eye hath not seen, nor ear
heard, neither hath entered into
the heart of man, the things that
God hath prepared for them that
love him. - Cor. 90. He
leaves a host of relatives and
friends to mourn his departure.
God grant that all will be ready
to answer to the Roll call up
yonder. = The funeral at Cato
was largely attended; services
conducted by the writer. May
God comfort the sorrowing
family G MORRIS

BRIDGE NOW IS YEARS OLD.
What a Quarter Century of Hard
Service Shows on Brooklyn
Structure.

Declared by experts to be
stronger today than it ever was
before, the Brooklyn Bridge
entered on its twenty-sixth year
OF service yesterday. The oc-
casion was celebrated by the
flying of mammoth American
flags from the towers at each
end.
On May "a; 1863, the bridge
was first opened to the public
with a big demonstration, and
several thousand more or less
timid people ventured over it for
the first time. Today it is
noted not so much for it's size
but its wonderful stability with
what is equal to almost the en-
tire population passing back and
forth over it in a single year.
In one day now nearly as many
passengers cross the bridge as in
a month during the first year it
was open. Between 5000 and
4, 900 trolleys cross it every day.
In the first day the cable was
operated 8,528 passengers were
carried, and this was considered
an enormous business.
Rush hours" have been the
bane of the BRIDGES existence.
From the first recorded jam
when there was an accident on
decoration day, 1883, the problem
of handling the crowds on the
bridge has been a big one. The
decoration day jam resulted from
a woman falling down the steps
at the New York tower which
caused a panic, and twelve
persons lost their lives in the
crush. But the bridge has been
singularly free from fatal ac-
cidents. Out of the hundreds of
millions of passengers carried
over it on the bridge railroad
only one has been killed in the
twenty-five years.

Greek Farmers in the Delta.

Last December and January
about 80 Greek laborers settled
on the lDahomey plantation in
Bolivar county, where the land
is very fertile.
They left their families in their
native land, until they tried their
fortunes farming one year in a
strange country to them.
They are engaged in the cult
walton of corn and cotton; proving
reliable and intelligent, doing
good work, without constant
watching. Each one demanded
that hesbe allowed to cultivate on
shares, on the same terms as he
raised field crops, three acres in
vegetables and melons consisting
principally of onions, potatoes,
Watermelons and cantaloupes.
Their cultivation of onions is
flat, Eleaving each onion about
six inches each way, with a
promised yield this year, at a
very low estimate, of about 300
bushels to the acre, though some
of the Greeks are counting on as
high as six hundred, and are
basing the figures on long ex-
.perience, which may be realized.
The cultivation of the potato is
to plant flat and keep killing
up. Yields already gathered in
dictate crops of about 400 bushels
to 1.-THE acre. The land is rich
delta soil, without fertilization
and their success has been in the
thorough preparation before
planting as we'll as the intelli-
gent working of the crops.
1t was broken deep, disced,
narrowed and pulverized until it
was free of Eclods. Now the
lands in this section can be
fortified till they are just as pro-
ductive, and the Greeks would no
doubt make as reliable and pay
ing laborers here as in the delta
and this fall it might be we'll to
look after inducing some Of them
to settle in this section, as many
of them are DESTROYS of coming
to America. They are said to be
free of the many bad habits and
vices of the dago. This Informal
ton was furnished the News by
the gentleman, with whom they
work, and he is competent to
judge them.
