KILLED HERSELF FOR LOVE.
Suicide of Miss Evelyn Mccormick
the Young California Artist.

SAN JOSE, CAL, Aug. 19.-Miss
Evelyn Mccormick, one of the most
popular and best known artists in
California, shot herself through the
head and died almost instantly. Miss
Mccormick is said to have been en-
gagged to Guy r. Rose, son of T. j.
Rose, a wealthy citizen of Los An
geles. For some reason the the en-
gagement was broken, and Rose mar
ried a New York girl about three
months ago. Grief over the termina-
tion of this engagement is thought
to have been the cause of the suicide.
Miss Mccormick was regarded as
one Of the most successful of Cali
fornia artists, and recently was hon.
ored by the acceptance by the Paris
Salon of one of her pictures.

A drove of fifty Western horses were
sold at Reidsville a few days ago at
public auction. They were wild and

ARIZONA

Arizona stands at the threshold Of an
era of wonderful social and industrial de-
"elopment. There can't be doubt about
the fact. The dawn for which she has
waite" 50 long is breaking at last. There
Is every promise Of day of great pros
pei1ty and permanent upbuilding Just be-
fore her. The impulse of a new and @mer-
giving hope is visible everywhere among
her people. while the cumulative effect Of
many things, which made lat small i'm
preston as they tr"nsrired singly, is now
commanding for her u full share Of atten-
ton and interest abroad among home
seekers and capitalists.
4 lively competition has sprung up for
The possession of things which ha, c heiet
fore gone a-hegging for ownership. There
Is a scramble for franchises. Nothing more
surely indicates great industrial awaken
ing than this. The rates Of interest are
falling to moderate figures. Nothing more
surely indicates confluence and competition
among the money lenders than this.
Arizona has reached that climacticer
period which every western state has ex-
pelienled sometime in its history when.
after long and weary struggle and doubt.
With each side Of the balance first mp and
then down, the clouds of despondency
have suddenly rolled an ay, and a sum,urst
Of energiziDg hope has thrilled the droop-
ing spirits of the people to greater aud
Drawer endeavor than before.
For the last twelve years the subsistence
Of the great Tombstone boom and the com
pletion Of two transcontmental lines Of
railroad across her territori has
rather dropped out of pubic attention,
hut in that time she has been quietly ac-
cumulating fund of substantial wealth
and force OF moral character which
qualify her now to Use up and take her
destiny in her own hands.
The population of Arizona is Mexican
This is mistake of great Importance from
the moral point of view. There is but one
considerable center of Mexican population
in the territory, the city of Tucson, and
even there it is not by any means at pres
ent the predominating element. 1t think
1T is certain that arizona has not to-day
nearly so large Mexican population as
Colorado and not above One-tenth as much
as New Mexico. -"Fitz- Mac" in Denver
