Tired of Life.
Mrs. Blidd Sanders, the wife of a
well known miner, residing on Latin
dry Hill, was found lying on her
bed when a neighbor called yester
day afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, with
a' ghastly bullet hole through her
heart. She was dead when she was
found and probably had been dead
for some time.
The suicide theory is supported by
circumstances, though the woman
left no message to her husband or
other relatives. The body was found
lying in a natural position on the
bed in the family bed room. The
left hand was under the head and the
right extended alongside the pros
trate body and within reach of the
hand lay a .45 calibre revolver. In
the chamber of the revolver were
four loaded shells and an empty
one.
Robert Burns, a negro, committed
suicide early yesterday afternoon by
-shooting himself through the head
with a revolver of .45-calihre. The
motive for the act Is not known.
Fifteen or twenty minutes before
the shot was heard Hums was seen
to go down Brewery avenue and
shortly afterwards he returned, en
tered the house where he had been
staying and locked the door. The
pistol report was then heard
Prisoners Taken to Tombstone.
George W. Hale, charged with
stealing a watch and a pair of shoes
from the Phelps-Dodge store Mon
day evening, was ncntciiccd to sixty
days in the county jail, the defen
dant entering a plea of not guilty.
He was arrested hy Constable C. N,
Thomas.
Jose Gomez, charged with stealing
i horse belonging to the Bisbce-Naco
water company, was held to the
grand jury on the charge of grand
larceny. He was unable to give
bond in the sum of $250.
Both Gomez and Hale were taken
to Tombstone in the county automo
bile, driven by Sheriff Wheeler yes
terday afternoon.
DOUGLAS.
Schools Overcrowded.
The Douglas school board is
meeting a difficult proposition in
a unique manner. Reference is made
to the construction of temporary
small buildings for the accommo
dation of the increased number of
school pupils until tjich time as per
manent buildings can be provided.
Two such buildings arc being con
structed on the grounds of the Sixth
street school now, one of which
is nearly completed. They arc small
frame structures, but ample and
comfortable for the pupils, and will
he provided with alt equipment ne
cessary to give the pupils the same
advantage they would have in the
regular school building. The in
crease in the number of scholars
this season has been a perplexing
proposition, and it is a happy idea
that the board has adopted to meet
the conditions.
Narrow Escape.
Hugh Noftz, the 14-year-old son
of Mr. and Mrs. Noftz, of Twelfth
street, was accidentally shot through
the fleshy part of his left arm yes
terday afternoon, while hunting
near I.cc station with a companion
of the same age, Frank Young.
The two lads left town at an
early hour yesterday morning for a
hunting trip near Lee. They had
hunted for some time and decided
to sit down and rest. Young Noftz
stood his gun upright against the
banister of the bridge, which they
were on, hut it slipped and felt. It
was discharged from the fall, shoot
ing the hoy in the fleshy part of
his arm, tearing the muscle from
the, bone, but leaving the bone un
shattcrcd. While the wound is not
thought serious, it is very painful
and he will have to wear the arm
in a sling for a long time.
GLOBE.
Remembers Early Days.
William G. Rice, of Rice, Arizona,
is registered at the Dominion hotel.
The town from which he conies-was
named after him. Mr. Rice came to
this country forty years ago and
opened a saloon and lodging house
at Rice and has been located at that
point ever since. During the years
of the trouble with Geronimo and
his followers, Rice was a scout and
has many notches on his gun which
represent "good Indians." He was
with Captain Spoopcndykc near San
Carlos, Arizona, at the famous battle
of "The Little Gil." In an interview
last night he spoke highly of this
city and its growth and said he re
membered the time when there was
nothing here but a saloon, a faro
layout and a lodging house.
TUCSON.
Arrives Penniless.
Mrs. Mattic Melton and her 10-year-old
son, Marshall, have half a
loaf of bread between themselves
and starvation. They arrived in the
city on the morning train from the
west and put up at the waiting room
of the Southern Pacific. Mrs. Melton
has set in to wait for her ?on, Will
Melton, who telegraphed her that he
would be in Tucson on October 29
or 30.
When Will was not on hand at the
train Wednesday morning, Mrs. Mel
ton was frightened. She and Mar
shall had a nibble of breakfast on
the loaf, bought with their last nick
el ,and then the widow set off to
find the mayor and tell of her plight.
At the city hall she was directed
to the board of supervisors.
She was advised by B. L. Hitch,
clerk of the Board, to wait until
the arrival of the 11:30 and the 4:35
trains. Mrs. Melton, having nothing
else to do, agreed to abide by his
advice.
TOMBSTONE.
Rains Wash Out Roads.
After making an inspection and
surveys of the county roads in the
Sulphur Spring Valley, County Sur
veyor McNcish states that the re
cent heavy rains washed out a large
number of roads which will take
considerable time and expense to re
pair In other respects he says the
roads arc in fair shape and passable.
He has been working on the valley
roads for some time, making surveys
and recording them, and his princi
pal work now is to establish grades
for the county road superintendent.
PHOENIX.
Little Fair of Their Own.
Three strangers giving the name
of Smith, Murdock and Murray are
residents of the county jail charged
with running a state fair without a
license. They were arrested yester
day evening on the charge of selling
spurious tickets for admission to
the fair grounds.
Their very boldness enabled them
to operate more successfully than
they could otherwise have done for
they were selling tickets outside the
grounds almost under the nose of
the regular ticket sellers.
They had sold a great many be
fore the management of the fair dis
covered that it had an enterprising
rival outside the gates. Since this
rival had borne none of the expense
of getting up the fair or any of the
burden and heat of the day that had
almost driven the commission, its
secretary and several assistants to
distraction, it was felt that a mean
advantage was being taken and com
plaint was made to the authorities.
It has not yet been found out
where the tickets were printed. The
paper was of a slightly different
shade but the imitation was so good
that the spurious character of the
tickets was not easily detected. Just
how many of them were disposed of
will not be known until the check
ing up process is completed.
Shootfest Ends.
II. P. DeMund of Phoenix won the
individual state championship medal
on Wednesday with a clean score of
fifty straight birds at the trap shoot
ing contest of the Arizona Sports
men's association meet at the, Fair.
The four men team race was the
big event and found two clubs,
Tucson and Phoenix in competition.
Tucson was composed of Dr. C. A.
Schradcr, D. C. Williamson, W. A.
Julian and W. II. Thompson mak
ing a score of 174 out of a possible
200. Phoenix went up with Tom
Ellens, Dell Morrill, H. P. DeMund
and R. P. DeMund, scoring 193 out
of 200.
This is the highest scare that has
ever been made by a four-man team
in the United States, easily taking
the $500 diamond medal.
To Write State History.
Ruth Guernsey Kelly of Clifton
Bishcc and Tucson is one of the in
teresting visitors at the fair. Mrs.
Kelly, who is the wife of W. II.
Kelly of the Copper Era, one of the
prominent newspaper men of the
state, is herself -a write of acknow
ledged ability. She will extend her
stay a week after the festivities to
collect data for the completion of
a general history of Arizona she has
been preparing for several years.
At ' ;hc close of the Indian war,
seventeen years ago the author came
to the state; the traditions of which
will feature her book. She will dwell
upon the Spanish missions with
fascinating love talcs interwoven.
Mrs. Kelly has made a close study
of Indian lore and this with life in
pioneer days will be the subject
matter. Each chapter will be com
plete in itself and the whole will
make a most delightful history, for
if in Mrs. Kelly's usual style it will
be clever, pithy and interesting.
The libretto of a musical comedy
the plot of which she is not ready
to divulge, has also been undertak
en by this versatile woman. She is
to take it to New York in February
for a conference with some of the
most noted composers. A meeting
has been arranged with George
Cohan, for the purpose of going over
the manuscript.
DOUGLAS.
Chink Beats Melican.
At least one instance in which
the Heathen Chinese outgamcd the
'Mclicnn man and came out on top
of the heap after a shooting affray
took place a few days ago in Glcasou
when Jim Quinn was disarmed and
beaten up by Wong Wee, proprie
tor of a restaurant, As a result of
the hearing which took place in
Courtlaud, Quinn was hound over to
await the action of the superior
court.
The evidence showed that Quinn
imagined himself aggrieved in some
manner hy the Chinaman anil taking
his trusty "Smoke-Wagon" a .45
calibre Colts, in hand, proceeded to
the restaurant conducted by Wee.
Wee was not up to standing gunfire
and ran into a room adjoining hi-.
restaurant. Quinn followed him and.
after locking the door on th. m (
side, proceeded to use the chink as ;i (
target He must have done actie
dodging, as he was struck by none
of the bullets.
When the American had emptied
his gun, he was willing to call the
thing off. The Chinaman, 'however,
had only beguu to light. He took
the gun away from the warlike
Quinn and proceeded to give him an
old fashioned drubbing, after which
he turned him over to the officers.
Cattle Will Go Higher.
Although the tine cattle of the
Panhandle country arc selling now
at $35 per head, yearlings, shorts and
all, it is the belief of Charles J.
Sanders, a wealthy cattleman of
that section who was here yester
day, that they will rise still higher.
"Cattle arc higher right now than
they have ever been and I can sec
no reason why they should diminish
in price," said Mr. Sanders. "In fact
when I left the Panhandle country
last month there was every promise
that they would be worth more be
fore winter has set in. The grade of
cattle I speak of is, of course, bet
ter than the average in this section
of the country, but your range stock
is commanding a very fine price"
Mr. Sanders had been spending
several weeks in cities on the coast.
This was his first visit to Douglas,
and he expressed himself .Is being
highly pleased with the city. From
here he went to I.ordsburg and
Doming, in both of which places he
has business to attend to. From
there he will proceed to his home in
Texas.
Children Need Shoes.
"Two hundred children who have
neither shoes nor stockings is the
least cstimatc( as I know from per
sonal observation in the public
schools of the city," said Attendance
Officer Ycagcr yesterday in discus
sing the great suffering brought upon
the poor of Douglas by the approach
of cold weather.
"Not alone arc many of the chil
dren without shoes but in many oth
er instances they have not enough
clothing to keep their little bodies
warm. It is pitiful but true If
anyone will notify me or any of the
teachers, I will call for clothing and
shoes and will sec that they arc given
to the children who really need them.
'The majority of the children who
are in this state arc Mexicans, but
there are a few American children.
Wc arc doing all we can to telitve
their suffering but on account of a
lack of funds and outside assistance
wc cannot do a great deal."
SIX LOSE LIVES WHEN
HOSPITAL IS BURNED.
SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 31. Trap,
ped by flames that swept the Santa
Rosa hospital yesterday, six Sis
ters of Charity and one child were
cremated. Two other children arc
missing.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
Eighty-seven children and nine nuns
were in the building. The Sisters
marshaled their charges and sent
them out and remained in the build
ing until the walls began to crumble.
Mary of the Cross, the Mother Su
perior, returned to the dormitory,
when she heard the cry of children
that had been forgotten. A few
minutes later she appeared at the
window with a baby in her arms.
A ladder was placed against the wall
and the fire chief was climbing to
the rescue when the Mother Super
ior and child fell back into the
flames,

AEROPLANE
TO GET OUT OF
WALNUT GROVE, Oct. 29.
Editor Journal-Miner: On behalf 61
twenty-five ranch owners of this
community, I have been requested to
write to the Journal-Miner to ascer
tain the name of the firm and the
location of the manufactory that
builds aeroplanes, or dirigible bal
loons. Wc have come to the conclusion
that as aerial navigation is the only
method by which wc can travel in
or out of this country, since the
wagon roads arc pratcically impas
sable, that as a last resort wc are
compelled to use a means of con
veyance that will permit of the high
places being hit, and the only re
course within our grasp is through
the aeroplane Walnut Grove fs
peculiarly situated in this age of be
ing up-to-date or what they term
progressive; wc have no telephone,
it is twenty miles to the railroad,
and the last rains wiped away all re
collections of a roadway. Physically
wc arc high and dry on the hank,
and to intensify the situation, offi
cially we seem to be in the column
that is regarded as nil.
This message is conveyed on
horseback on the old cut-across-the-country-trail-route
that Hassayamp

airship firm stipulate the price and
carrying capacity of the machine
