 SuccUMBS TO ILLNESS.

H. S. Ford. pioneer resident, of Tombstone. passed away at his home on Seventh street at 10:00 o'clock last night, following an illness of sew eral years duration. during which time he cheerfully withstood the rav- ages of miners consumption.
 Deceased was 70 years of age, and came to Arizona in 1875 as a member of the command of General Crooke. dispatched to the western frontier to wipe out the Indian menace at that time making life miserable for the early settlers in these parts.
 For five years Ford served under Gen. Crooke. and participated in many battles with the crafty Apaches, as they were chased over the mountains and across the valleys by Crooke and his command. Many interesting re- ports of these battles have appeared in newspapers throughout the south west as related by. the deceased, who engaged in every encounter between the command of Gen Crooke and the crafty Apaches.
 When the Indian menace had been stamped out. Mir Ford remained in Arizona and followed mining. having prospected in almost every part of the state. He acquired valuable min ing interests at Mammoth. Arizona. as well as in this vicinity. and it was while engaged in this occupati ion that he contracted the malady for which there is no cure.
 Deceased was born in Chester. Penn. and was 70 years of age He leaves a wife and five children .o mourn his passing. Mrs. Frank Lay ihOu, Oi SOui lhiSS OTu. Roy, Andy and Earl Ford. of Tomb stone. as well as brothers in Pennsyl- vania, who have been notified of his death
 The funeral will be held tomorrow at 10:0O a. m. from the family resi- dence. Hennessy & Allison, of Bisbee. having charge of the arrangements.
 Besides the immediate relatives. the deceased leaves large number of friends among the old-timers through out Arizona. as he was widely known and highly esteemed among the pio- neers in Arizona mining camps.
 In the death of H. S. Ford, Tomo- stone has lost another of the pioneer clan, so fast diminishing, and whose places will be vacant for all time to come.

NO ROOM FOR THE "KM0cKER"
indianapolis Newspaper Tells a Few
Plain Truths, Straight Out From
the Shoulder.

Indianapolis is fortunate in the quail
ity of its citizenship. We are the most
American of the great centers in the
United States. We have few of the
problems brought to other municipali-
ties by alien elements. The city showed
front-rank progress in the recent GEN.
sus report. 1t is leading in building
construction and Industrial progress. 1t
is not perfection, but is much nearer
to that goal than most cities and
should not be liheled and slandered
even by few lightweights of little or
no influence.
The residents of Indianapolis know
the truth and are not deceived by the
city's traducers, but the effect on
strangers may, be serious and In any
case cannot be Of advantage to any
one. Those whose stock In trade Is de-
structiOn instead of construction,
hurtfulness instead of helpfulness, are
pests who should be made aware of
that fact by the loyal, public-spirie ed
citizen. They may have to be endured,
but 1t should be in the contempt IL ey
deserve and that will ignore them to
the point Of ostracism.-Indianap0
