The old man had been In town
for several days but no one can be
found who talked to him before he
became intoxicated from too much
liquor. There are those who say
that he was herding sheep at Soda,
and in his rawlings after he was taken
to the Jail he several times mem

however telephoned to M. Terrett
and was able to get no information
regarding the stranger.
Those who noticed him after his

at the saloons here. Little attention
was paid to him however as he was
regarded as one of the many of his

earnings of months as soon as they
receive their pay.
Tuesday he was discovered lying
helpless and suffering at the sand
house. The officers were notified
and removed him to the CITY Jail,

laid to rest in pauper's grave,
Wednesday. No mourners followed
him to his last resting place, and no
ceremony was held as a mark of
respect, or esteem of friend or rela-

formed by County officials who were

out of the way.
The identity of the man is not
known, and diligent research on the
part Of the coroner fails to reveal

from whence he came to Montpelier.

POPULAR INSURANCE
 MAN WILL ENGAGE IN
 BUSINESS FOR HIMSELF

Laurie H, Brown, the popular insur- ance and real estate man, has opened an office in the Globe Office building in the rooms formerly occupied by the Gila County Abstract company, and repre- sents several of the best known and strongest insurance companies in the United States
 For the past year, Mir. Brown has been manager of the Gila County Alb stract company, taking oyer the man agement of that company's business, when it was in slack condition, and building up one of the best insurance businesses in the territory, which is evidenced by the fact that a syndicate of Globe s best business men recently purchased controlling interest therein. What Mir. Brown did for the Gila County Abstract company, he can and will do for himself, as he is not only very popular with the business men of Globe, but also with all of the insur- ance companies for whom he has trans acted a large and lucrative business.
 MT. Brown will also do an abstract t business, making his abstracts direct from the county records, which, when made, will constitute a complete search of title. This form of abstract will be highly appreciated by the legal pro fession, as well as by those requiring abstracts.
