Heney got an acquittal in less than two hours after the case went to the jury at the end Of three days trial. Three venires of B jurors each W re exhausted in getting a jury, the examination of the jurors showing the existence oi large amount of prejudice against the defendant. Judge Edwards of Globe ably prosecuted the Case and Gen. Heney is entitled to great credit for the mastery manner in which be conducfei the defense.

DEATH OF MISS BESSIE EDGAR.
Sudden End of a Beautiful Career
 After a Protracted Illness.

This community was shocked beyond expression this morning at the sad news of the sudden closing of the early life of one whose place among us Is most it. tingly stated in the words "none knew her but to love her."
 Miss Bessie Edgar, daughter of James E1gar, of Detroit, Mich, wa one whose character and loveliness cannot be DOT trayed by human pen. Often has 1t been remarked that her nature was too spiritual for her physical powers. As one lady very near to her sad this morning: "re me she was more like an ang than a human bsing." Although she had been apparently improving in health so that even her physician did not even anticipate any sudden change her friends had long been dreadiDg the approach of the summons ito come up higher" She was unusually cheerful Sunday end took short ride with Miss E iith Goodfellow, afterward partsking of hearty supper, and receiving visits from friends in the evening. Up1n re- tiring she expressed herself as feeling better than for some time. At half past five this morning her faithful nurse Miss Morgan, was alarmed by a call to her bedside and rushing at once to her assis anc', found her in a sink Dg con- diti D, and almC st at once she was gone. bn n Os fhio eff toff ie, h I'd, suddenne5s with which 1t came Her parents were both in Michigan expect ing very soo1 10 re urn to their loved one, and friends who cherished her as of their own family, although near at hand, could not be not:tiad and rested unsuspicious of their loss,
 In the departure of this gentle spirit t5is community has experienced loss that cannot be re paired. Her unselish- ness and loving thoughfulness for others ornamented her character like priceless jewels. To be in her presence was to set aside the sordid aims of life and to absorb, as it were, from her very indi- viduali;y the incentive to better and [. bier purposes. The chief charm of all was her total unconsciousnesS ot the good and pure infiu noes which were COuoInutiy Oh7hoGiHS HUH hCicCii' The very thought that the end must one day come has been of i;self heavy afflction to all her friends, but such was her strong personality that the realizstisn of the loss comes at last with even a greater shock than if it had not been anticipated.
 Ia this burden of grief those nearest to her may feel assured that a tender sympathy reaches out to them from very many hearts, who feel the blow more keenly than these feeble words can ex- press. This sad occurrence has cast a gloom over the whole community. To a people accustomed to scenes of sorro ", this event comes as personal bereavs- nent.
 Mss Edgar was born in Detroit and while in a visit to Esston, Pa., con tracted the illness which finally resulted in her death. She has been a resident of Tucson for the last four years. At this writing no word has been received from the stricken parents, but loving friends are doing all that can now be I lx.u1 zA-..< Il Ak-...
