at his home near the Lexington

another day would dawn his spirit
would take it's eternal flight from its
earthly tabernacle into the portals Ct
that mysterious land from whose
bourne no traveller returns. His re-
mains were carried to the old family
buryipg ground, near Peak Monday,
for interment. He has been resid-

years. He leaves a wife, son and
a daughter to mourn his departure.

Hundreds of the sheep in Arizona and especially in Apache county are dy- ing. You may ask what is the reason of this. If you who cannot understand it will just come into Apache county and look over the country you will not wonder at it any longer. You are all aware no doubt that the sheepmen are not allowed to take their sheep into the mountains on account of the timber re- serve and there IS no grass down in the lower valleys and that all the sheep have is little brush and not mush of that. Now something has got to be done or else the people of Arizona or at least Apache county will have to migrate to some other cline. The sheep industry is the main industry in this county and in many other counties in this territory. The sentiment of the people is to have She ''Timber ReserveationT opened.

THE following is from the pen of Missouri editor: Drink and the gang drinks with you, swear off and you go it alone, for the bar room bum who drinks your rum has quenchless thirst of his own. Feast and your friends are many, fast and they cut you cold: they do not get mad If you treat them bad. so long as thelr stom- achs are fed. Steal if you get million for then you can furnish bail, it's the great big thief who gets out on leave, where the little one goes tojail. Adver- tise and ti.e dollars will come, quit and they fail to arrive, for how are men who have money to spend going know you are still alive."-Ex.

A FOOL WITH FIREARMS.
A WayWard Woman With Record
 Accused of killing Her Husband.

Mrs. May Parry, a wayward woman we'll known in Yuma, is in jail in San Francisco, charged with the awful crime of killing her husband.
 Mrs. Parry came to Yuma last fall and played brief engagement as singer in the Miners Exchange. She was very young and rather pretty and possed more than an ordinary musical educa- ton. For short time after her arrival she conducted herself in modest and ladyllke manner, much above the aver age saloon singer. She, however. soon descended to the level she was seeking and began to drink heavily.
 When intoxicated she was very silly and was always looking for trouble. It was her habit to carry g small pistol, and frequently exhibited it in a reckless and boastful manner.
 Her first bid for notoriety here was about month after her arrival when she and Ed Fitzgerald were out one night on quiet little celebration.
 In winding up the festivities about two o'clock in the morning they indulged in g wine supper at Joe Gunn's. On the way home Mrs. Parry invited Mir Fitz- gerald up to her room which was in the Modesti block. He agreed to accept the invitation, but left her at the foot of the stairs and went over to his place of bus He returned in short time and just be- fore reaching her room heard a shot fired from within. Other occupants of the house were aroused by the report of the pistol. and upon inquiry the woman who was intox :catsd and very much ex- cited, claimed that she had shot at a man who was trying to enter the room. No attention WAS paid to the foolish break and everything went along smoothly for while. She then had some trouble with Mir. Lyon and frequently threatened him with vengeance for her fancied wrong. AS mode of getting even she became very friendly with Ly- on's wife and often took her out riding. She soon stirred up trouble between Mir. and Mrs. Lyon and was about to cause seperation when Lyon took an aggress- l;e stand and slapped her face during heated controversy. Mrs. Parry then left Yuma and went to Tucson, taking her little gun with her. Her actions in Tucson indicated that her wayward nat ure was still growing weaker and that her frail mind was rapidly becoming un- balanced. Her mother who lives in San Francisco, learned of her whereabouts and went to Tucson and took her erring daughter home.
 Nothing was heard from her after she passed through Yuma on her way home until last Saturday when the report came from San Francisco that she had killed her husband during quarrel over let ter she had received from an admirer. She is now in jail awaiting trial. but is not likely that sine will be onvicted as the unfortunate man made dying state ment that the pistol was discharged ac cidently. Sun.
