 DEVELOPMENTS
FRIENDS DEEM IT UNwIsE TO HAVE WOMAN RELEASED ON
 BAIL AT THIS TIME.
MAY BE SENT TO HER PARENTS
IN CHARGE OF ATTENDANT oW. ING TO CROWDED coNDI-
 TON or JAIL.

Owing to the fact that Mrs. Margery Beck, who attempted to shoot Miss Charlotte Palm, and Jim Bice, Monday night, is still in rather irrational con- d ton, her friends have decided that it might be an unwise move to release her on bail and she is still in GUS. tody.
 As the woman's department in the county jail is already filled to overflow. ing with conglomeration of Mexicans. Indians and negroes, Sheriff Thompson has secured room at the home of Mrs. tiske, where Mrs. Beck is con fined, under the care of an attendant.
 Close watch is being kept on the woman to prevent her injuring herself in ono of her fits of despondency.
 It is probable that Mrs. Beck will be taken east to the home of her parents, where she can be properly cared for.
 That it is the general belief that she is mentally unbalanced and may never be trird ID the charge of assault with 3 deadly weapon, is the opinion of George R. Hill, her attorney.
