WOMAN'S LIFE
Declaring that She Was Tired of Llv-
ing Woman Threatens Self
Destructlon-IiaS Been Ill.

Mrs Albert Maybe, wife of news
agent of the Santa he between Albu-
querque ana Needles, California. re-
siding at 403 South Second street.
caused her mother and husband q
great deal of anxiety today about
noon by declaring that she was tired
OF living and that she would take her
own life after locking herself In her
room
Shortly after she locked the door
shot rang out. The door could not
be opened and fearing that the wo-
man had really suicided, the persons
in the house telephoned for an Off
Ger. Hearing steps as of a person
walking, the officer did not immedi-
ately break the door down but look
ed cautiously over the transom. Mrs
Maybe was pacing back and forth in
the room. carrying a revolver in her
hand and was talking Historically TO
herself.
She lifted the weapon to her head
several times as IL to shoot, but did
not. Finally the woman threw the
gun on the floor anu wnen she was
several feet distant from II the Of
ficer broke the door In.
The explanation. Mrs. Maybe made
for not carrying out her threat was
that ''the old thing wouldn't go off"
Mrs. Maybe's friends explain her
strange actions by saying that she
has suffered great deal from i'll
health. The family ,eiations OF Mr..
and Mss. Maybe are said to be most
happy, and the rumor that her at
tempt at self destruction was caus-
ed by a quarrel is not believed to be
true.
The gun when picked up contained
two loaded cartridges and one emp
ty shell, Though a search was made
for the place where the shot that she
fired struck, 1t has not been found.
Mrs. Maybe refused to see newspaper
men this afternoon and persons in
the house refused TO discuss the at
tempted suicide.
Mrs. Maybe became hysterlcal
again this afternoon and upon the
| advice OF DR. Reidy, the attending
| physician, was ordered committed
to the asylum for the insane at
Las Vegas by Judge Ira b. Abb
| bott, The evidence showed thai
she had suffered several surgical op-
erations and DR.. Reidy said that he
believed that her mind had become
unbalanced as a result. She had
several spells of temporary insanity
and today was not the first time thai
she had threatened to commit sui
/ eide.
