ch  from  Mexico.  They 
probably  “traded’’  with  some  other  thieves. 
Murray  is  well  known  in  the  western  part  of 
Grant  County,  having  during  the  past  two  years 
worked  for  several  different  people  there, 
among  them  Drew  Windham,  one  of  the  gentle- 
men who  assisted  in  his  capture.

On  Friday  last  Lucio  Lazo,  a Mexican  boy 
in  the  employ  of  Bell  & Stephens,  at  Pinos  Altos, 
while  digging  holes  for  fruit  trees,  unearthed  a 
tin  can  full  of  twenty  dollar  gold  pieces.  He 
put  the  money  into  his  pocket  and  at  noon 
started  home  with  it,  but  a Chinaman,  also 
employed  in  the  yard,  saw  him  counting  the 
gold  and  reported  the  find  to  Bell  & Stephens. 
Mr.  Bell,  it  is  stated,  buried  the  money  several 
years  ago.  Lazo  has  since  made  a demand  for 
the  money  through  his  attorneys,  Bail  & An- 
cheta  and  Fielder  & Fielder.  Lazo  claims  the 
money  at  treasure  trove.  Bell  & Stephens  had 
the  money  counted  by  William  Watson  who 
stated  that  the  total  amount  of  the  find  was 
$600.  It  is  thought  that  there  is  more  buried 
treasure  in  and  around  Pinos  Altos.

While  Pete  Jochem  was  in  Lordsburg  one 
night  last  week,  some  thief  rode  his  horse  off, 
going  towards  Mexico.  They  are  getting  pretty 
bold.
