nix and will remain here for the bal
ance of the week. He arrived in the
city Monday from Tucson, where he
had been visiting for some time pre-
vious. Mr.. Allis is a civil engineer
and his first visit to Arizona was
made many years ago when in the
furtherance of his occupation he came
into the southwest for a mining or
ganization of the east. His first stop
was made at Tucson. where he ar
rived in the spring of 1879 and in the
fall of the same year he secured a
contract to survey the townsite of
Tombstone. During all of the years
when that section of. Arizona was
better known to the outside world
than it is even today, Mr.. Allis made
his residence there and was well
acquainted with all of the leading cit
liens of those times. 1t is therefore
with more than ordinary interest that
he looked over the city of Tucson last
week. His old office building is still
standing, but has given way to num-
erous improvements, all of which have
tended to destroy its former appear
ance. In addition to changed build
ings, Mr.. Allis found many Of the old
time residents changed with age but
this in no way interfered with many
pleasant hours of conversation recall
ing events which made history in the
days of old.
