WAS IT SUICIDE !?
Mrs. j. W. Fayman, Well Known in
Silver City, Dies from Morphine
Poisoning at Phoenix, Arizona.
The Dead Lady Was a Musical instructor
and Vocalist of High Order and Was
at One Time a Member OF the Epis-
cOpal Church Choir In this City.

A special dispatch from Phoenix,
Arizona, under date of March lst,
says; "Mrs. J. W. Fayman, 35
years old, was discovered dead in
her bed at the st, Lawrence house
about | o'clock Sunday afternoon.
Justice johnson empaneled a coro-
ner's jury Immediately and, after
viewing the body, ordered Under
taker Bradley to take charge of the
remains and give them respecta-
BILE burial. The jury then ad-
iourned until Monday morning, at
which time it returned a verdict of
death by suicide. the dead wom-
an was an excellent musician and
had been in Phoenix for three
months past andat differen.t times,
in fits of dependency, she had
threatened her life. Immediately
after taking the morphine the at
tempted suicide was discovered and
physician was called, ard in
spite of her objections, gave her
medical attention. She then went to
bed and must have quickly died, un-
known toany of her acquaintances.
She was married to J. w. Fayman,
an employe of the Southern Pacific
at Los Angeles; but became separ-
ated from him, and came to Silver
City where she resided for a year
or more with her brother James S
Fielder, who is a well known and
influential lawyer of this city
The news of the sudden death oi
Mrs. Fayman was a severe shock

she was recognized as a woman ot

A ROYAL GORGE.
Brilliant Reception rendered to Judge
Frank w. Parker and Clerk John
P. Mitchell Thursday Evening.
An Excellent and Entertaining Program
OF Exercises Was Followed by an EIab-
crate and Sumptuous Banquet at
the Thinner House Dining Hall.

The reception and banquet ten
dered to Judge F. w. Parker and
Clerk J. P. Mitchell at the Thinner
House last Thursday evening was
an enjoyable and long to be remem-
bered occasion. The guests of
honor fully appreciated the efforts
made in their behalf and we're loud
in their praise of the wholesouled
community which made such an
ovation possible. The gathering
was notable one in more respects
than one Notable not only on ac-
count of the notables present but
for the flow of wit and good humor
which prevailed. There were dis
/tinguished visitors present from all
portions Of the territory. The
members Of the bar resident here
about as well as some in atten-
dance at the term of the Federal
court, here in session, citizens
prominent in all the professions
and mercantile pursuits lent their
presence to the occasion and en-
joyed themselves to the utmost.
There were many good speeches
made, necessarily brief of course,
but full to overhowing with keen
wit and jovialty. The toasts, it is
needless to add, were appropriately
responded TO, and elected frequent
applause. The commodions dining
salon of the Thinner House was
crowded to it's utmost, yet there
was more than II sufficiency OF good
things for all. The program and
menu at the banquet were as

now in peaceful rest.
The New York Journal does
not belong to that class of news
papers advocating peace at any
price. The Journal is of the
opinion that it would be a good
thing for this country to show Eu-
rope that we have not forgotten
bow to fight. A recent editorial
in the Journal closes as follows:
Would it not be good thing,
and even a profitable thing, to end
this suspense once for all? The
cost of humbling Spain, breaking
her hold on Cuba, and ending all
war rumors from that quarter,
would be less than the cost to
business of six months of the
present hristing peace And that
stroke, sharp and decisive, would
save us from any further wars or
war scares within the next thirty
years. The European generation
that saw our display of fighting
strength between 1861 and 1865
let us severely alone. A new gen
Grafton is growing up abroad that
knows not Grant or Sherman or
Sheridan or Lee. 1t is talking
supercillously about American
military capacity, and intimating
that war war with Spain might be
a faleful surprise for us, on ac-
count of the superiority of Span
ish personnel and discipline. If
we call Spain to order with neat
ness and dispatch, these voices of
detraction will be stilled, America
will take her proper rank among
the powers of the world, and the
governments of Europe, with such
an object lesson to guide them,
will carefully refrain from undue
interference with our affairs.
Peace, placid and profound-such
peace as has been long stranger
to us-will settle down upon u.s.

An exchange speaks its mind
freely, in the following fashion:
Many man who thinks he could
be journalist, stands in the store
and tells how he would be as inGe-
pendent as hog on ice, and call
things by their right names; how
he could write good common sense,
and none of your frivolous, try to-
be funny stuff. The hest way to
cut one of these chaps is to get him
to agree to write a sensible article
every day for week. Before the
week is out, he is sure to be pump
ed dry, and cape worse for an idea
than chicken with the pip. If he
should have the ability and nerve
to carry out his threat, he would
be found hanging to a telegraph
pole before three mornings roll
