PREMEDITATED SUICIDE
Edward Monier, an old barber at Lords-
burg, who had been quite ill for some time,
finally decided that the pistol route was the
shortest way out. Suiting the action to his
thoughts, he placed the muzzle of his pistol to
his ear and took his departure. The old man
was methodical in all his arrangements, going
so far as to leave minute directions as to the
indivduals whom he desired to act as jurors at
the coroners inquest.
Quite a serious accident befell Mrs. Pheby,
mother of Thos. Pheby, on the Rio Mimbres.
On descending a flight of stairs, Mrs. Pheby
missed her footing and fell, and besides suffer-
ing from severe contusions, broke one of her
limbs. Owing to her advanced age — 75 years —
the accident may prove to be quite a serious
one.
The following officers were installed on
the evening of the 26th inst., at the Silver City
Lodge No. 8, A. F. & A. M., Harry W. Lucas,
W. M. ; A. H. Harlee, S. W.; M. H. Twomey,
J. W. ; P. B. Lady, Secretary; J. W. Carter,
Treasurer; H. Abraham, S. D.; J. Card, J. D.;
Geo. D. Jones, M. L. White, stewards; J. E.
Plows, tyler.
James Swartz, of the Mimbres, spent the
holidays in the city.
