zeal in like manner.
About seventy.6ve invitations
were issued for Friday. Augu It

most delightful one for the occa.
sion. found the elegant home of

frivolity until a late hour. The
most was assisted IN receiving by
the Misses Verna Griffith. and

AN INSANE WOMAN
CREATES C0MM0II0N
Mrs. Emma Partin Startles the In
habitants in the Neishborhood Of
First Avenue and Washington.

! Pesrons living in the vicinity Of
Washington street and First avenue
were aroused out Of their slumbers yes
terday morning by the sound of pistol
shots and when they had rubbed their
eyes to look about for the cause Of the
commotiOn they discovered a half nude
woman or a woman considerably more
than half nude. She had intruded into
the Creighton builing and after having
tried all of the doors came to the door
Of a suite occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
, Winters. The manner of the woman
= was regarded by Mrs. Winters as
threatening and she fired a pistol three
, times TO give an alarm.
! a little later the woman was taken
into custody by officer BlOOmhorst and
was lodged in Jail. Deputy Sheriff
> Adams later swOre out a warrant
against her charging her with insanity.
She was given an examination in pro-
bate court in the afternoon and was
committed to the asylum.
/ 1t was learned that the name Of the
woman was Mrs. Emma 0. Partin. wife
of T. s. Partin a bridgeman on the
Phoenix & Eastern. The language of
the woman indicated that she had gone
crazy on the subject OF religion though
il was stated by those who knew her
that she had never been of a particular
" religious tendency. When question
cd as to who she was she replied that
size was the Holy Ghost on the way
to Cod
! 1t was enormously stated yesterday
that she was a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. George Nanderwalker of Tempe
The fact is that Mr.. Partin is a son
of Mrs. Vanderwalker. Mrs Partin
was brought b. her husband from
California more than a year ago. She
had been confined in the insane asylum
at Napa and had been discharged as
cured. Her husband provided a home
for her in Tempe but she did not re-
main there long. She came TO PhOe-
nix and went to work at the residence
OF DR.. II. L. Stroud. In the meantime
her friends did not know what had be-
come of her. She was finally located
and her husband though he did not try
to control her movements any lOngel
made her a monthly allowance. She
had for some time been living with q
was we'll liked and though she did not
seem 20 be mentally all right there was
nothing in her condition 10 excite
alarm.
/ She was quite sick day before yes
terday and the lady with whom shs
was living proposed TO send Tor a doc
tor. Mrs. Partin made her promise moi
to do so. but the doctor was sent foi
and after he had gone Mrs. Partir
said that her confidence had been VIC
lated and she would stay there nd
longer. She went away and nothing
more was seen Of her until after tn,
early morning episode.
1t was with the greatest difficulty
that she could be prevailed upon u
put on some clothing. She finally con
scented TO wear some things white bu
it had to be white. Finally Deputy
Sheriff Adams rugged up a kind of Z
robe like he imagined is worn in para
disc and in that garb Mrs. Partin Wa!
brought into court.
MIR. Partin was notified last night o.
the condition of his wife.

CIENfGUHA SUIT
ON A CONTRACT
Thos. {. Parish Brings Action Against
George Bebee to Recover $4,000
Shares of Stock.

The Ceneguita litigation continues to
p, Emulate. TIonas Z. Parish WED al
ready has two suits pending against
the company yesterday filed another
against George Bebee who it is alleged
dominates the company. 1t is stated
in the complaint that in 1901 Bebee and
DR.. ]. NJ. Ford had an option on GER
tain mining properties in Sonora and
they employed the plaintiff to make
an examination OF them. 1t was under
stood that his compensation should be
a part of the stock of a company which
should be formed in case the properties
We're taken over.
The plaintiff spent several months
going over the properties and having
made a favorable report Messrs. Ford
aud Bebee TOOK VI tie option. They
organized the Cienguita Copper Com
pany of Arizona and transferred to ii
the stock Of the Mexican company
known as CompaniI Minera Sc la Glen
guita $. \. DIR. Ford received 100000
shares of the stock OF the company
and Bebee 10000. Accordingly to the
agreement with the plaintiff DR.. Ford
turned over to him $4,000 shares then
having a value of 81 a share. Bebee
refused to surrender $4,000 shares un-
der the agreement and this action is
brought to compel him to do so. The
shares are now alleged to be worth
s.. Therefore the plaintiff asks in
lieu OF the shares, a judgment for $125,-
900.
The plaintiff also filed yesterday a
motion for intervention in the suit OF
/ +. c. Drew against the Cieneguita Cop
per company of Arizona praying for
/ the dissolution Of it. In his motion the
plaintiff opposes the dissolution until
the several suits he has against il shall
be adjusted.
I Drew is one of the officers Of the
I Cieneguita Copper company Of Nevada
which was formed several months ago,
it is alleged at the instance of Bebee.

Emperor Who Must Die STANDING

The Emperor of Austria during his

s..e business rs usual. A soon as
he left the nursery he began a course
of training 10 fit himself for the high
position he was to MI. At 16 he was
an accomplished llnguist and scien-
tiilc expert OF no mean degree. He
could ride and hunt with the t!reloss
energy OF n hardy sportsman. and his
studies In literature and Jurisprudence
were conducted under the most ccle.
brated scholars of Continental En-
rope. That such course of training
did not react upon his health Is doubt.

which even now Is said to enable him
to recall the face of the humbest of
his subjects. no matter how long the
lapse Of time. 1t is tradition OF the
Austrian royal house that no Emper.
