POPULAR GIRL
PASSES AWAY
MAY LYDEN FALLS VIC
TIM TO DREADED DIS
EASE; DIES AFTER A
HEROIC STRUGGLE

Regret was general yesterday aft
crnoon when the death OF May ~
den. twenty-four years old, at the
Mercy hospital, was learned. The
grim, courageous battle fought by
the girl against the overwhelming
knowledge that she must finally
succumb to the dread disease she
had fallen victim to, drew to her
side a host of' friends, who during
the last few months of her strug
gle were constantly at her bedside
cheering her and offering what com
fort they could.
The girl resided here until about
Two and half years ago, returning
10 Youngstown, Ohio, where she
joined 4 brother and sister, the sole
survivors OF the family. While n
the East she contracted tubercu-
losis. and came here last Septem-
Der in the last stages of the dis
ease. Her previous popularity drew
to her side her old host of friends
who not only furnished the means
for her care in the hospital where
the best OF treatment and attention
was available. but did all they could
to comfort her.
The arrangements for the funeral
are now being made by joint COM
mittee from the Sacred Heart church
and the Sodality The services will
be conducted Saturday morning in
the Catholic church and the remains
will be inferred in the Citizens
cemetery.

COYKENDALL KILLS

(From Thursdays Daily.)

ATIOHl lHuTSudy DdllyD
Advices from Parker yesterday
brought the surprising news tha5
Captain H. c. Coykendall, until a
few days ago a resident of this city,
had shot and killed a Mexican
named Juan Laras. under circum-
stances that were reported as justi-
fable.
The cause OF the killing was due
to the Mexican running amuck IN
the town, and attempting to shoot
down several citizens, while in an
intoxicated condition.
According to statements made by
eye-witnesses, VITO testified at the
inquest, it was proven that the Mex
lean was intimidating the entire COM
munity, and TO carry out his muir
derous intentions, had fired his gun
no less than eight times ut people
walking along the streets. There
was no effort made to resist the
Mexican. but on the other hand all
sought seclusion indoors. Finally
a druggist, whose name was not
learned, concluded to act single
handed to capture the Mexican, and

MANY WANT TO
HANDLE STATE FUNDS

PHOENIX. Feb. 27.-Present
prospects are that there will be
more Democratic aspirants for the
State treasurership this year than for
any other Office. No less than five
are already in the field They are;
Arthur c. Pearson. Bisbee. reading
clerk of the State senate during
the second and third special ses-
sions.
Don c. Rabbit. Mesa, member of
he house of representatives
Harry Johnson, Phoenix, ditto.
Nit Sims. Stafford. member consti-
.utional convention.

Pearson is openly campaigning
and is confident OF winning John
son. Sims and Riley have told their
friends that they intend to go be-
lore the voters at the primaries IS

that II. II, Hotchkiss OF Douglas

probably prevent him running for
treasurer. Hotchkiss was the first
Democrat mentioned for the office.
but now feels pretty sure that he
will not be a candidate.
Maricopa county may have a third
candidate in State Senator c. B.

At both Phoenix and Tucson
where the progress OF the new sys-

ing have been watched with keen
interest throughout the country. the
prospects are that success will at
tend its installation. Phoenix has
gone upon record as in favor OF the
system, its fairness and logical
points.
William Young. an expert from
Cleveland. is in charge OF the in
struction work. He is assisted by
James Stafford Of California. Both
will be here when Prescott Is Wis

The system only affects the valua-
tons placed upon real estate. One
OF the chief obstacles which con
