HAYDEN

Some time during Friday night, Antonio Flores, a Mexican working in the ccncentratOr, was murdered by unknown parties in the north part of San Pedro near the point where the wagon road comes up from the gulch intervening between that sec ton and Hayden proper. The tra- gedy was net revealed until the fol- lowing morning about : o'clock when d Mexican hy the name of Padiila came lpcn the body as he was go- 1 ing to work. The man had met ideath b. being stabbed just below i knife penetrating very near to the heart There seems little doubt that robbery was the motive of the crime. l as it happened on the night of pay i day, and the pockets of the murdered
 man had been rifled of anything of value that they might have contained. As soon as the body was found local authorities were notified and a jury
 empaneled by Coroner Studley. The | emains were viewed but further ac- ton on the part of the jury was i deferred to Monday and it is hoped ! that by that time local peace officers 1 will have some evidence in hand to enable that body to take some def ! mite action. At the present, how ever there appears to be no clue | to the identity of the murderer. The knife. however, with which the deed l was doubtless committed was found .l,o | develop into valuable clue in run
 ming down the criminal.

WILL BE GRANTED
FOR THIS PURPOSE BY
TOWN COUNCIL.
EFFORTS TO MAKE
TOWN ATTRACTIVE
Finest Medicinal Waters in the World
With Other Attractions for Vis-
itors, Should Make Friends.

The first move in proposition to
give Abita Springs electric lights in
the streets and residences is-noW be-
ing taken in the probable grant OF
q franchise for that purpose. This
is very important step, Tor the
lighting of the pretty town would
give visitors and home people an OPP
portunity to enjoy .the cool air of
the evenings, when the odor OF the
pines makes the exercise Of outdoor
walking very agreeable and stimulat-
ing, and the promenade to and fro
from the springs for the evening glass
of water would be pleasure, berett
of the anxious cropping in the dark.
Abita to-day has quite number OF
visitors, and it promises year after
year to become popular. The value
of its medicinal waters has been
learned by actual test, and If visitors
find that other attractions are being
offered for Their comfort-and amuse-
ment new lists will be added to the
old.
Every Sunday lovers of sport will
find good game of ball at the new
park, dances are given at the pretty
pavilion and there are picture shows
at night. Hotel accommodations are
excellent, and with this new lighting
of the town at night Abita should
prove quite an attractive place.
