THE KAdLE : WEDNESDAY, 3IAY 8, 1895.
MOGOLLON NOTES.
Hilarious Mexicans Uet Themselves Into
the C'lutctieH of the Law,
Mogollón, May 3. Times in this
vicinity are at the present not very
lively and therefore there is not. much
of interest happening.
There are two mills in operation night
ami day on the ore of the various mines
in this vicinity. There does not seem to
be many rich strikes occurring or at
least your correspondent does not hear
of any.
Quite a number of the people in and
about this camp are very ill, at the pre
sent, and two deaths have happened in
the last two weeks, of pneumonia. Mrs.
Patterson has been confined to her
room for several days, but at this writ
ing is convalescent.
. Mrs. Thos. Brown lias been confined
to her bed the past week with a case of
la grippe.
Quite a number of Mexicans became
rather hilarious one night last week and
tried to take in the town, but our worthy
constable, Mr. Charlie Williama.was not
in favor of allowing them to do so and
promptly cast them into the city bastile
to appear before tho Honerable Judge
Bartlett, who shortly convinced them
that the laws must be olieyed, by giving
them each a fine.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith, of Tinos Altos,
have arrived in the city and will make
this their future home. Mr. Smith in
tends to go into the blacksmithing busi
liess in a few weeks.
Mr. Sil Uainblin returned yesterday
fnm a few days prospecting in the
mountains.
Mr. Phip Baugh has sold out his line
of dry goods and will now run a grocery
exclusively at the old stand.
Mogollón can now boast of a town hall
with a seating capacity of alxint five
hundred.
Mr. Frank Lauderbaugh has greatly
enlarged his restaurant, and otherwise
remodled the same for the general pub
lic. Mr. C. H. Wilkie has j'ist received a
nice new safe from San Francisco. It is
quite a large one and it may be possible
that he will go into the banking busi
ness. The Rosenberg building is rapidly
nearing completion and when it is fin
ished it will be quite an improvement to
the main street.
Mr. William Bartlett has now got a
water wagon busy hauling fresh spring
. water to the residents of the city, which
he hauls from the various springs in the
neighborhood of this place.
Mr. Jack Lambert has been confined
to his room for several days with an at
tack of typhoid fever.
The ball given at Central hall last
Thursday evening was quite an enjoy
able affair, which lasted until the wee
sma' hours. Quite a number of couples
were present from Cooney and Alma,
and all report having a most delightful
time. There were about one hundred
couple present. Mr. Phip Baugh is the
owner of the hall and has just had it fin
ished and extended an invitation to one
and all to come and eniov themselves
which they did, and it is to be hoped he
will repeat it again in the near future.

Fell Over a Cliff.
Last Friday morning N. D. Hutton,
who was employed on the Chicago Trib
une during the World's fair as a repor
ter, and who has since lieen writing for
that paper, was instantly killed alxnit 14
miles from the Gila hot springs.
He was out with a party liear hunting
and on Friday morning he started out
from camp ahead of the rest of the party
to look at some of the cliff dwellers
ruins. He was riding a pony shod with
smooth shoes and came to an obstrua
tion in the trail. A tree had fallen
across the trail which was near the edge
of a cliff. He decided to ride around
the tree and attempted to do so, but the
sloping rock was too smooth for the
pony to retain his footing upon and both
horse and rider went over the cliff, strik
ing 011 the rocks below.
Hutton's neck was broken, his skull
was crushed in and tho upper portion of
his face was bruised almost lieyond re
cognition. The remains were brought
in here without delay, arriving Saturday
morning in time to be embalmed and
shipped east on the train Saturday
morning. Hutton was a good wiitcr
and had he not meet with the accident
which cost him his life he would doubt
less have written many interesting ar
ticles on southwestern New Mexico.
