George w. Mowbray, an old time resident of Bisbee, committed suicide by sending bullet into his heart sometime between II p. m. Wednesday and II o'clock Thursday morning. About II o'clock Thur.day morning Justice Fixes sons, Homer and Ly- man, were taking their fathers horse to pasture when they stun. bled upon the body Of Mowbray lying near the shaft Of the Gardner claim. Fright ened by the sight of the blood bespst- tered corpse the children ran home and told the story Of their ghastly dis covery to their father, and returned with him 10 the mine.
 At first sight MT. Fike thought the body 10 be that oi some man who had fallen down the rocky hillside and crushed in bis skull-the body lying face down concealed the pool of blood that had flowed from the wound Tn tine dead mans breas,-but on look ing closer he observed the trail lead ing from the body up the hillside to the door Of q cabin situated fifty feet or 50 west of the shaft, and entering the cabin he discovered a fl calibre bulldog revolver and black slouch hat lying on the tlo5r near A clot oi congealed blood.
 Without disturbing the body, MT Fike hurried to town and ID a few minutes returned with Judge Perrin Constable Lewis, Deputy-constablt Graham and nine men summoned as jury to view the body.
 Upon turning over the corpseit wa: discovered to be that of George " Mowbray. A clot of blood directly over his haart showed the cause of Iii: death. A glancing wound was aisc discovered on the skill two irche, above the right ear. He was dressed just as he came oT shift at II o'clock Thursday evening, and his face auC hands showed that he had not bsthed as usual after his days work.
 From the location Of the tloot stains it would seem that he stepped inside lbe door and shooting himsel in the head pitched forward at full length. The glancing wound had bu stunned bim, and recovering con seriousness, he had sent his second anC last bullet into his breast, the ball however, just cut through the wall O the heart and lodged in the spine para yzing the lower half oi his body not necessarily causing inamediatt death. Frenzied by the pain of hi wounds he had dragged himself thirty feet down c rocky slope to the road and then thirty feet farther along thu road with the apparent intention O throwing himself into the shalt, fol which he was heading.
 Alter hearing the testimony of hi, roommate to the effect that MOwbrsS was often morose, when endeavorinl to go without drink, and that, more over he had bought rope not Ion. ago with the Avowed intention O hanging himself, the jury brought in { verdict of suicide.
 It is well known by ali thos. acquainted with the deceased that ht was always morose between hls spelll of drinking.
