STRANGER SHOOTS HIMSELF
 AT CITY OUTSKIRTS
urom Wednesdays Dally)

Lying amid cluster of hill rocks at the western outskirts of Prescott. the neatly dressed body of young man was found shortly after 9 o'clock yesterday morning by Pete Briato, an Italian workman. A bullet hole in inc center of the forehead blnckencd by powder stains and revolver clamp. cd in the right hand told the tale of another human entity that had looked upon the Eternal Sunrise.
 While the clothes of the body in dicated by their quality and condition that the man had been no paupcr, no money and nothing of value save an inexpensive watch was brought out by the reach of the coroner. A trunk cheek from Williams, however, was found in pocket and this lead to the probable name of the dead man.
 From documents, princ'plly natural ization paper, it would seem the name of the suicide was Albert Strausburg. but recently a garment maker in Den. yer. The naturalization papers found in the trunk disclose S,rausburg na. tive of Russia. was naturalized in this country Oct. 3l. 1893, in the Court of Common Pleas, Camden. \. ]. X union card states 'tne same Albert Strausbury was a member of the Cloth ing Makers Union. No. l6, Denver. An address. probably the dead man 's Denver residing place, i723 Jefferson street, was also learned.
 The suicide was about 33 years old, weighing perhaps lG0 pounds. His | features were of Russian Jewish cast.
 In his trunk was found considerable linen and outer wearing apparel, all in the best condition and clean. There were many photographs in which the dead man figured, probably taken at Denver.
 The suicide took place between < and 9 o'clock Monday evening. This is certain as rigor mortis had long since set in when the body was found Moreover. the wife of Tom FitZsim' mons, who has his home and brickyard near the spot where the body was found, heard shot about that time.
 The body was taken 10 Ruffner'' undertaking establishment.
 No person in Prescott so far as na' developed. knows anyiding of tho suicide He had not been seen about town by anyone who recalls the fact When he arrived is also unknown. On account of the trunk having beer : checked from Williams it is though he may have spent some time nt tha place. Inquiries will be made at tha point.

CITIZENS TICKET MAKES
 SWEEP or OFFICES
(From Wednesdays DailyJ

Cruel was the wintry blast of bal. lots that yesterday caught the maiden effort of tne Republican party in munic. ipal politics and nipped that budding flower in all it's lovely youthfulness.
 When after three hours counting of the heaviest vote ever boiled at a Prescott city election, an invoice was taken, every candidate on the Rcpubli. can ticket was found to have been beaten by substantial majorities, rang ing from the surplus of Pat Farley, who ran like coyote with bounty hunter after him, to the hcadway of the Citizens councilman team, Belch CT and Hughes, who won by something more than two necks, and Ed Black. burn, who noscd out by q votes.
 The entire Citizens Ticket went through la avalanche and these of. ficers are elected for tae ensuing year:
 Mayor Morris Goldwater.
 Councilmen-T. <. Hughes.
 E. M. Belcher
 Chief of Police-S. A. Prince.
 Assessor-Frnnk Williams.
 Recorder-P. ]. Farley.
 Treasurer Ed Blackburn.
 The question of granting a franchise to another electric power company was decided in the affirmative by an over. whelming majority.
 If the institutors of the Republican ticket have nothing else to console them they have the feeling that they put more life into the city election than it has known for many years. The utmost interest was shown in the tickets and as consequence q record. breaking ballot was boiled.
 The voting throughout the day went on merrily though without sensation except for Pat Farley's political char tot, n striking conveyance that resem. bled the Deadwood Stage in Bill Co. dy's Wild West aggregation. But it apparently delivered the goods.
 Ambitious candidates rounded up seven sojourners at the county hospital and had them attempt to eas, seven ballots but the casts all fell short of the voting booths. This was the only purely political pleasantly of the day.
 Not long after the tallying of bal io;s began !; became apparent ;ha: :kS Citizens ticket was going to win. Ii' early lead was never jeopardized.
 The ballot stood:
