WORK MEN CLEARING
 0. K. BLOCK SITE
 FOR DIAMOS THEATRE
Old Bisbee Landmark Being Torn Down To Be Supplant ed By Theatre Building. Has Interesting History

One of the twenty year old land marks of the Warren District is Doomed. The o. K. block, purchased some months ago by the Diamos Brothers for the purpose of erecting theatre on the site. is now being torn down, the working starting yes terday.
 Some months ago it became known that the Diamos Brothers, who oper ate motion picture shows in Nogales, Douglas, Tucson and Bisbee, were negotiating with the owner of the block, Robert Hennessy, for its pur- chase After a few days the deal was consumated.
 It is understood that the lot is ex- pected to be cleared in about ten days. That side, fronting on Review Alley, is already down and the second story of the front is being torn down at rapid rate. The lot in front is fifty feet wide. It extends from the Miners store limit to the Justice of the Peace office. The lot, in shape, is more mindful Of an arrowhead than anything else. The point of the arrowhead is that part extending north from Naco road and the head of the arrow head is the blocks front age.
 Immediately following the compile tion of the tearing down process the owners will go to work on the new treatre building which will cost in the neighborhood of s25,000. The struc- ture will be erected of brick and con- crete. Four months is expected to see the edifice completed.
 The O. K block has an interesting history It was built approximately twenty years ago by J. H. McKim, who with a partner has made some money in northern Mexico in the min ing business. McKim owned the building until two years ago when Robert Hennessy, who had been the tenant for many years, purchased the property The original owner is now retired and lives in Riverside, Califor- nia
 The plans of the other owners of property adjoining the site are un- known It is understood, however, that Hennessy may sell the remaining part of the block which he still owns. This includes that part housing the offices of Judge Totman, M. c. High and the Depot Smoke House, besides the upstairs.

DE FACTOS
 TO FIND BANDITS
Brownsville Commander Urg- es General Ricaut To
 Show Speed
(ey Review Leased Wire.)

BROWNSVILLE, Tex, June 20.- Although no additional bandit raids in the Brownsville section were re- ported to Fort Brown headquarters tonight, General James Parker. com manding the Brownsville district of the border patrol officially reminded General Alfredo Ricaut, Matamoras commander. of his promise to round up the bandits who crossed the river into the United States last Friday night and attacked detachment of American soldiers. At the same time General Parker gave General Ricaut the names of several bandits known to have been in the San Benito raid.
 It was reported here tonight, on apparently reliable authority that Aniceto Pizana, bandit leader, had been made a colonel in the defacto government army and had been giv- en a command, which had been de- tailed to defend the plaza at Mata- moras in case of attack. General Parker today also sent word to Con sul J. z. Garza at Matamoras to- re turn to his post at Brownsville, guar anteeing Garza full protection. Con- sul Garza left here for Matamoras Sunday It was reported that Garza had joined the defactO troops with the rank of captain.
 The body of Wm. Browne, an Am erican, who is believed to have been murdered Saturday night at Mata- moras, Mex, was buried today on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande ten miles from Matamoras.
 Albert Browne, mayor of Browns vile, and brother of the dead man, was refused permission by General Ricaut the CarranZa commander, to disinter the body and bring it to the American side. General Ricaut said the request should have been made to Mexico City. The body was found early today floating in the Rio Grande ten miles south of the MeXi- can town Browne was last report ed alive in Matamoras Saturday af- ternoon.

ness. He was a Christian gentle
man of the highest type. in the
social circle he was ever kind and
considerate of the pleasure and
happiness of his friends. To
know him was to love him. He
was an affectionate father and a
true friend. He leaves four sons
and one daughter to mourn his
death. his wife having preceded
him some years ago 20 the heaven

He joined the Confederate army
at Cape Horn, in May 1861. He
was captured at Fort Donaldson
in 1862, and exchanged and recap
tured at Petersburg in 1864. Was
hororably discharged from the
service in May 1865. He was a
brave soldier; and a model citizen,
being true to his country both in
war and peace. He was a moss

DEATH OF SOUTH DAKOTA PRIEST
FATHER DuGUAY OF MILLER,
SUCcUMBS AFTER AN OPERA
TloN-WAs TEN YEARS IN TIE
DIOCESE OF SIOUX FALLS.

The Reverend Frederick A. Duguay,
pastor of the Church of st. Ann, Mil
Ter. South Dakota, died at the
McKennan hospital, Sioux Falls, on
Thursday, April 6, following serious
operation. The remains were taken
to his old home in Philadelphia by
the Reverend George Walsh, secretary
to Bishop O'Gorman, and Chancellor
of the diocese.
Father Duguay was native of
Philadelphia, where he was born
thirty-nine years ago. He served
for a time in the Diocese of
Superior, Wisconsin, before coming
to South Dakota about ten years ago.
His first appointment was to the pas
torate of the Church of the Assump-
ton, Highmore, whence he was
transferred to Miller and it's mis-
.sions.
Father Duguay was an earnest,
energetic and jealous priest who
devoted himself unreservedly to the
service of the people, among whom
he labored. His early demise is a
great loss to the Diocese of Sioux
Falls.
