Mrs, Le Doux Found Guilty of Murder of Husband at
 Stockton, Cal.
BOTH RESIDED IN
 BISBEE 4 YEARS AGO.
Now Believed That She Mur- dered WiIIiamsr to Whom She Was Married Before MCViCar-Fifteen-day Trial,

Sheriff Stewart Hunt, who spent yesterday in Bisbee, has received ad- vices from Stockton, Cal, to the eff. feet that the jury in the case of Mrs. Emma McVicar, alias Emma Le DuuX. charged with the murder of her hus- band. has brought in a verdict of mur- der in the first degree, fixing the pen alty at death.
 Mrs. Emma McFiCar was q resident of Bisbee in the year 1902, and was married 10 a man named Williams. who was employed in the Copper Queen mine. The couple resided on School Hill.
 Williams was akCn sick one nigM in March or April in 1902, and died tho next morning. IL is now thought that he was poisoned. When the physi- clan was called he was nearly dead, and complained 10 the doctor Of in tense pains In his stomach.
 At that time McVicar was rooming at the house. and in September of 1902 he and Mrs. McVicar Were mar ried. McNicar worked in the Copper Queen mine until November 15, when he and his wife left for California, where they located, he being employ cd in the mines in the northern part of the state, while she went home to reside with her parents further north, but came down to Stockton frequently to meet him.
 While at the home of her parents she married a man by the name of Le Doux, and was living with him when she was not down with McVicar. At one of her visits to StocGton to meet McVicar during the early part Of June, she administered 10 him a large quantity of morphine, enough it was testified to kill a dozen men. She then placed the body in a trunk be- fore lite had fully expired, and hit ting over the head with some blunt instrument shut down the lid of the trunk and prepared 10 ship the trunk to San Francisco.
 The baggageman was slow in get ting the trunk to the depot. and the train left before it was placed on beard. When it was taken into the baggage room the odor arising from the trunk attracted the attention of the employees. An investigation was made and the body discovered. Mrs. McVicar was arrested the next day, and held on the charge of murder.
 Tbe trial was closed on Saturday. and had occupied the attention of the court for fifteen days, and the jury was out five hours before agreeeing on the verdict, fixing the penalty at death. The first ballot was unani- nous for murder in the first degree. There was disagreement as to the fixing of the death penalty. but 1t was finally agreed upon. The Judgment of the court in the case is to be pro- nc Cunced on July 9.
 Sheriff Shibley and Deputy District Attorney McNoble. of Stockton, were in Bisbee and Tombstone collecting ev- idence in the case during the early part of last month, and took back with them copies of the marriage certiti- cates of Albert N. McVicar and Elm nla Williams.

Lowell Puts KiboSh on Miners from the Greatest Mining
 Camp on Earth,
WHOLE BISBGE TEAM
 GOES UP IN AIR.
Lowell Played Nearly FauItIeSS
 Ball. Only Two Errors Going Down Against Them, and
 Are There With Goods at Bat

After refusing for weeks to recog- nize the team from the graveyard dis trict, BiSbee went down to oYerwhelm- ing defeat at the hands of the Lowell ites at Don Luis Park Sunday. Lowell piled up 14 runs against the invinci- bles from Mule Gulch, and didn't do thing to Bohnstadt, the Indiana won der. Eleven safe singles in four in nings sufficed to drive the lanky one out of the box Blair later held down the Lowell boys to three safe hits.
 Taking the score book from the oth- CT side. Bisbee is credited with ten hits, all well scattered so that they were rendered harmless. In only one inning, the last, was Bisbee able to geL a man across the rubber. It happen ed in the ninth, and is worthy of men ton because of its solitary standing in the game.
 IL happened thusly: French was the first man up in the ninth. He flew out to Collins. Mcdonald put up an easy on for Quinleaven, who gobbled 1t. Ford hlt safely. Forbes manag- ed to get 10 first on an error by Felix RChnstadt got a bingle. Dugan put out a good one for two bases. scoring Ford. Dawson terminated the agony by popping one up for Malcolm.
 There was never a stage of the game when Bisbee could be sensibly reckon ed in the betting. There was nothing to 1t. It was case of one, two, three and out whenever Bisbee put its face ito the game.
 Kitty Knight must have been sore al some of the egotistical remarks ac- credited to the BiSbee team, for he started out by flaming Dugan, Dawson and Blair in the first spaSm. Eight times during the game Knight fooled a Risbee batter.
 BOhnstadt. who was hurt by thrown ball before the game was call ed. seemed not to be himself at all. It may be that the big fellow did not recover from the effects of the ball. which was thrown by Dawson and struck him full in the mouth.
 Bisbee fans are loud in the denun- Ciation of BiSbePe's pretensiOns to be ing baseball players. However that may, Bisbee IS still strong in the be- lief that it will win the pennant from Lowell in the series of five games tnat are to be played.
 Some little money changed hands or the result of the game, and there will be plenty of opportunity for Bic bee packers to get their money down on their team when the two meet again.
 Lowell has made good in all the claims made by her management to the effect that Lowell has the goods in the baseball line. while Bisbee has fallen far short of her pretentiOns 10 being the champs of the slag dump.
 Lowell will go to Douglas to try con- ciusions with the Shelter City team next Sunday, and Bisbee is negotiat- ing with Globe for a game at that place. The next game of the series will in all probability be played when the Douglas tournament comes off dur ing the Fourth of July celebration.
 The agonizing defeat of Bisbee by innings follows:

That question was asked by promi>
nent motorist the other day, says the
New York American and Journal He
had been touring all summer through
New England and had had a chance to
get an idea of where the best roads for
motoring were located. His remarks
on the subject are worth serious con-
Grafton not alone by automobilists, but
by legislators as well.
'In Massachusetts, there is a system
of roads that is not surpassed in Amer
ica," he said, "and that state gets the
benefit from the fine highways in more
ways than one. 1t is paying invest
ment. Any person who has ever travel
ed through the state in a motor car
finds the riding so comfortable that he
wishes to repeat the trip
mot only that, but he prolongs his
stay in the state to take advantage Of
the fine driving. Ordinarily accom-
panied by two or three others, this
means an expenditure for living ex-
penses that brings money into places
in the state where before there was no
such revenue.

for many of the smaller towns have

for the roads that led them whittier

other instead of displeasure at making

Take Pastor for Anarchist.

The. Rev. James Gyorogy, q years
old, born in Hungary, and student
of jurisprudence in Meadville, Pa0
college, a passenger on the Cunader
Stavonia, which arrived at New YORK
from Trieste, preached to the imm:-
grants on the trip with such vehem-
ence of language and passionate ges-
lures that the ships officers notified
the immigration authorities that they
suspected he was an anarchist. says
the World.
The Ellis island officials had been
notified to watch for an expected
anarchist, and as Mr.. Gyorgy's APP
pearance tailed with that of the ex
pected anarchist he was about to be
deported, in spite Of his protestations
md denials that he was an enemy OF
government. He succeeded in notify
ing the Rev. DR.. Franklin South
worth president of Meadville college,
however, and DR.. Southwark sent to
the immigration authorities a letter
explaining that the Rev. James Gy.
orgy was a Unitarian minister, where
dpon he was discharged.

Making the Road Attractive.

In the construction of a road the
work of identifying the sides Of the
highway should not be neglected, says
the Pittsburg Press. Flowers, shrub
berry and trees should each have q
place along the roadside. They refresh
the eye and cultivate love for the
beautiful in nature, making a trip over
the road a pleasure to be remembered.
The appearance of the roadside is gen.
orally pretty good index TO the char
acter of the owner of the premises. a
clean. well kept roadside is an adver'
tisement for the owner and adds value
to the land.

make a trip to see what the places are
like. We see them, to be sure, but the
diScomforts experienced in making the
journey often take away much of the
pleasure that otherwise might have
been enjoyed.
"If Newhampshire, for instance, had
a system of roads anywhere near like
that of Massachusetts what paradise
it would be for the motorists! Some
day the situation may be realized by
the people of that state and something
done to help the matter, but it looks
as if it were a long way off.
For example, there are roads in the
northern part of the state where the
scenery is simply magnificent that
could be put in fair shape for few
dollars. l know of places where the
expenditure of a couple of dollars a
day by a town to fill up holes and level
roads would in a week or two make
the highways 80 per cent better.
cat present they are abominable in
some places. When you find you have
to run a car at six or seven miles and
at times slow down to the point that
just divides between actually stopping
and barely moving because Of gullieS
and holes, when the road is perfectly
level, too, for some miles, then some
idea Of the discomforts of motoring
thereabouts may be cleaned"
The writer within a few weeks trav-
eled over a number of such roads and
found the conditions were not at all ex-
aggerated. 1t did seem like practiced
negligence to allow the highways to re-
main in that shape. 1t is not to be ex-
pected that every town should sci
about making the roads within its
boundaries as hard and smooth as
racing track, yet no valid reason ex-
lists for letting them grow worse each
week, for in the end, when repairs are
imperative, the cost is all the greater
