FATAL SHAME
Drives James Stowe to
Self Destruction.
His Word is not Good for
a Sack of Flour
With Which to Allay the
Hunger of His Family.
The Dead Man Is Spoken of In the
Highest Terms by all Who
Knew Him.

One of the saddest suicides on record
was that of James Stowe at Casa
Grande last Friday. Stowe was man
Of the class least likely to resort to self
destruction and the tact that he did
suicide proves that he was a man OF ex-
trene constituencies.
He was well known in many parts Of
Arizona and wherever known was re-
spected and trusted. He was an old
time miner whose height, 6 feet 8 inches,
gave him prominence as the tallest man
in the territory. He had formerly been
in good circumstances but ill-luck
attended him in latter years and he be-
came very poor with large family de-
pendent upon him. On Friday after
noon he went to the general merchan-
disc store of j. I. Smith in Casa
Grande, and asked for sack OF -four
saving that he was unable to pay for it
Immediately. He was refused and the
refusal prepared him for suicide.
He went across the street to a saloon
where he excitedly related what to his
Imagination was a reflection upon his
honor and remarked that it was time
for him to die.
The bar tender tried to show Stowe
that the refusal of the merchant to
trust him was of slight importance /;
it was after all an expression OF the
opinion OF only one man concerning his
honor and TO prove that he did not
share it the bartender offered Stowe all
the money he had $3.50. Stowe refused
to accept it and soon after left town in
his buggy. Fifteen minutes later his
horse returned without driver and
Stowe was found soon after with bull
let in his head.
There is something extremely pitiiul
in the death OF this man who is de-
scribed by all who knew him as honest
and Industrious.
His affairs had temporarily at least
reached such a stage that his family
was threatened with hunger which he
sought to relieve by the cheapest article
Of diet obtainable, bread. Even that at
the time was unavailable and his In
ability to obtain IL drove him to
what weaker men would have sue
Cessiully resisted and he piled
up on the burden of his iamily's hunger
and poverty, a weightier burden, sor-
row Tor the tragic death OF loving hus'
band and father.

Reaches Phoenix In His PeripherIc
Tour of the United States.
Chris Miller, "Hoboken Chicken. u
reached the city yesterday morning in
the course of his tour of the rim of the
United States without a cent in his
pocket. Mr.. Miller's purpose pri-
marily is to gather material for an i'm
portsnt work on one phase of the
country heretofore left untouched by
descriptive writer's; another purpose is
to prove that such tour can be &C.
complished and that to an accomplished
traveller money is by no means a me-
cessity.. At important points the tour
list will give entertainments, which
consist OF lectures, etc.
1t is hardly necessary to mention
that Mr.. Miller is newspaper man.
This trip was undertaken from New
Orleans on November Is and will take
about two years to accomplish it. He
will lecture at the opera house next
"Wednesday night. This unique tourist
is pleasing and intelligent young gem

A FAMOUS DRIVEWAY.
Central Avenue Nearly Com
pleted.
Under the Management of Col. J. T
Slmms-The Most Pleasant
Thoroughfare.

The Central Avenue driveway is APP
preaching completion, three and q
half miles already being finished and
the remainder will be pushed rapidly,
This beautiful driveway, 100 feet wide,
evenly graded and eight miles in
length, commencing on Center street
and ending at the Arizona canal, shows
what enterprise and money can do
toward Transforming a dusty highway
into a boulevard equal to any in the
west and reflects credit on its pro-
moters, especially on Col. ]. T. Simms,
the president OF the association and
leading spirit in the enterprise. Trees
will be planted on either side of the
driveway and the long shady lane will
in the near future be one OF the chief
attractions of Phoenix and it's surround
ings.
The object, of course, is two-fold, viz.
to prepare a suitable pleasure drive for
the numerous stockholders of the com
pany, together with their friends and
any persons privileged by them, also
for the convenience OF those living
along the line of this driveway.
Col Simms will soon begin the cree
ton of a modern dwelling excelled by
none in the valley and this is only one
of many neat residences to be built
in the near future along the neat thor
oughfare.
A cement sidewalk will be built a
considerable distance out from the city,
at least to Col. Simms' residence and
probably later on extended the full
length Of the driveway.
