Society Notes.

'rhis week has been somewhat lively one Tn the whifl of social life. During the fore part of the week number ot small whist and card pa ties were held at the different homes of our society tells, and there were one or two blrth- day parties.
 A dinner party was given last evening by Mrs. John Bowen, in honor of her husbands birthday. A number of her intimate friends were present, and gath cred at the festal board and drank to the many happy returns ot the day, and to wish Mr. Bowen long life and happi- ness.
 The home of Mrs. William Brophy was the scene last evening of a gathering of friends in honor of the birthday of Mir. Brophy. The double parlors were artistically decorated with vines and flowers, back of which the walls were decorated with yellow buBtiDg, thereby producing a very pretty effect. The evening was spent in various games ot amusement and dancing. Dain re- treatments, suitable to the occasion, were served. The guests upon depart ing assured their hostess that they had had most royal time, and enjoyed themselves to their hearts content
 The remainder of the week will fill out with a number of events. The dance this evening to be given by the Copper Queen band, promises to be one of the most successful that has been given this season, and,the music and floors will be all that can be desired by those who delight in Terpsichorean amusement.
 On Saturday evening the banquet to be given the visiting members ot the Institute of American Mining Engineers by the Copper Queen company, will be one of the grandest affairs ever given in the history of Bisbee. Ire Masonic hall has been most artistically decorated with red, white and blue bunting, while the sides of the walls have been covered with a display of fan and date palms. The hall, when the decorating is com plete, will present an appearance that would do credit to city where profess sional decorators are to be had.
 On Sunday some thirty or forty of our townspeople will enjoy themselves by sojourning at the ranch of William Beatty, in the Sulphur Spring valley, and every body will go to church Sunday evening, or ought to.

Was 1t Murder?

Sheriff Scott White, accompanied hy Coroner Williams and the jury, went out yesterday to hold an inquest over the remains of the man fonnd dead near the mouth of Tombstone canyon, mem ton Of which was made in Wednesdays 8 issue. The party found the remains in the bed oi a small wash, just to the left of the entrance of the main canyon. The body was badly de- oSluposed, and had evidently been exposed to the weather for some. thirty days. The head was completely severed from the body and was found u little distance away. There weie one or two holes in tie skull, which leads to the belief that the man was murdered. The flesh on the arms had been eaten away by the coyotes, az had also other parts of the body.
 The man, at the time oi his death, had on pair of overalls and a striped woolen shirt, but there Was no the slightest evidence in any of the pockets " lutHiSi CluC tU HIS tuclblIFs A NlOcO search around the adjacent viciaity failed to find even slight clue.
 The remains are those of man of medium height, rather slender, and from the condition of the teeth looked as though he, was about thirty years pld.
 It was impossible to tell from the con dirion of the remains whether they were those of; a white man ora exica.
 The coroner's jury brought in yer dict in accordance with the above facts.
 The body was buried today in the potters' field by the county and will bear an unmarked grave.
 The crime, if 1t was one, will probably never be revealed, unless upon some death bed, the murderer will confess his guilt, and perhaps in some home fond ones will be watching for dear one, who had gone west to seek his for tune, to return, but their watching will be of no avail for he occupies un. marked grave between the hillsides ot the Bisbee canyon.
