ANNIsTON BOWMAN DEAD
Passed Away at the Hospital at 9 pm.
 Yesterday.

Anniston Bowman, the young man who shot himself Friday night at the residence of his friend, H. w. Graham. died yesterday afternoon about o'clock at the Sisters hospital.
 The case was reported to Coroner Burnett. who empaneled the following jury: W. H. Black, w s. PickreIl w. P. Medley. J. E. Stovall. John Hardee and Lee Redwine. The jury viewed the remains and the inquest was con tinued to Monday at o'clock.
 There are few details to add to the story of this. most distressing incident which was printed yesterday morning. Fortunately the young man remained conscious long enough to tell what he had done. thus removing from the case all mystery except the mysterious inn pulse responsible for the deed. In most cases of suicide the victim has . reason for his action, whether it be a good and sufficient one or not, but the daplorable feature of this case is that the young man seemingly had no reason except that he was suffering a little pain. had not been gloomy or morose and from all appearances killed himself just because HIS Ahti-i " ~-S Nf%i-NiSi HIS tiAPCA eA ny uncontrolled It might also be called an accident fer from the manner of the man ten minutes before he would not have been taken for a suicide, nor did he afterward tell anything that would seem to be valid excuse for such an act even to a morbidly inclined person.
 MT. Bowman is from an estimable family residing in Trenton. Mo-, where it is likely his body will be sent Mon day night for burial. He leaves a father. mother, two brothers and two sisters.

The American thought he could fix up the matter with the authorities as it was we'll known that the Chinaman had a certificate. He spoke to the depu- ty customs collector about it. The col lector said he believed that the China man had a right in the circumstances to come into the country. but he re- ferred the applicant to the Chinese in spector at that point.
 The inspector looked into the case and decided that the Chinaman might come in. He did so, but had hardly got settled down to work when he was ar rested. At his examination it was shown that he had viola ted all the pro- visions of the certificate and there was nothing to do but order his deporta- tion.
 Everybody connected with the case would have preferred that the China man should be sent south of the Mexi- can line and that is where he will eventually turn up. but he will have to make the trip by the way of China.

A CLIFTON MURDER
Mexican Woman Brutally Slain, Pre-
 sumably by Her Husband.

Soon after daylight Wednesday morn ing. as a driver of hack came down Chase creek, at a point near the rail- road scales above town, he observed 6 Mexican with pistol in his hanI standing near the prosthate form of a woman, says the Clifton Copper Era The driver thought murder had been committed and came down and so re- ported. Officers and citizens soon ar rived on the scene. and found the dead body Of Sra. Delfna Perrea, who had been shot through the left eye and in the center of the throat. The mar who had committed the deed had dis appeared. Later coroner's jury was empaneled, and viewed the remains, which were taken in charge by c. r. Pascoe and removed to hs undertaking parlors.
 Sra. Perrea was the step daughter of Robert Steggall, a former well known restaurant keeper of Clifton and Mor enci, who is now in Mexico. She hal been married to Jose Perrea, and had | child by him which is now about two years old. Some few months ago the couple separated, Perrea going to Nor enci and his wife remaining in Clifton. She had been employed as a waitress in the Chase creek restaurant. but it is said that her life recently had not been chaste Sunday night her husband ar rived from Morenci and told some of his friends that he came for the child. and further stated that if Delfina did not renounce the life she was leading he would kill her. The woman heard of this and was greatly excited. Friends. however, finally succeeded in getting the couple together. and a peaceable understanding seemed to have been reached. the husband offering to fur nish his wife with money to leave town on and agreeing to care for her and the child The woman, however. was afraid of him. and on Monday and Tuesday consulted lawyers. Tuesday night at a. late hour she visited Edward Gomez and wanted him to assist her in retain ing her child, which he told her he could not do. She left his place about 12 o'clock and then visited some of the saloons, there about l o'clock Wednes- adv morning, which was the last seen of her until her dead body was found d few hours later. There seems to be no reasonable doubt but that Jose Perrea her husband committed the murder. but many are of the opinion that he had an accomplice, who induced the woman to accompany him to the place where the body was found. Perrea and two companions had been seen drinking in the saloons. and it is supposed tht one of these men induced the woman to ac company him.

A note from Geneva states that a

bought an inn at Ufhusen, little VII
lage near Basel. This is said not to
be an exceptional case. In the can
tons of Upper and Lower Unterwalden
and Uri many of the clergy are propri-
etors of inns. The reason for this is
that the priests are so badly paid that
they are obliged to supplement their
incomes by other means. Their aver
age income in Switzerland is $125 a
year. The establishments under their
control are said to be models of their
kind The priests have succeeded In
reducing drunkenness in their par

who they consider have had enough.

a great celebrity in his own way. All
jackdaws have fads of their own, and
the favorite fad of this particular bird
was to travel all over London on omni-
buses, trains and cabs. He was thor
oughly we'll known to every busman
in the Brixton district; he used to
take his seat on bus beside the
driver, and would chatter most volu-

He was a bird of strorg likes and dis

sight he would assail them with the

According to Shakespeare, Cleopatra
played billiards with her fayorite,
Charmion, in the year 80 B. C. At

the French, who frequent professional
games and eagerly follow the billiard
news of the day. Patti is fond Of the
game and had table made in this
country to take to her Welsh castle,
for which she paid $1,000. Among
American billiard players of repute
are Mrs. George Gould, Mrs. Edwin
