POLITICS NOT HIS JOB.
Admiral Dewey Declares He Will Not Be
Candidate for President.

Admiral Dewey Declares He Will Not Be
Candidate for President.
NEW YORK, April 9.-Admiral
Dewey has given to the Manila cor
respondent of Leslie's Weekly an
interview regarding the suggestion
that the Admiral be made a candi-
date for the presidency next year.
The Admiral said as to his politics !:
II am sailor. A sailor has no
politics. The Administration is his
party, and, Republican or Demo-
cratic, it makes no difference. Then
again, come from Vermont, and
you know what that means. To be
anything but Republican in Yer
mont is to be man without a party.
My flag Lieutenant comes from Geo
gia. He tells me that to be anything
but Democrat in the South is to
be nobody. If l lived South I would
probably be Democrat"
Have you ever voted?" the cor
respondent asked.
YES, years ago, but my vote was
usually influenced by personal pre-
ference or local conditions. | am
not a politician, have never held po-
litical office, and am totally ieno-
rant of party intricacies and affilia-
tiOns."
Admiral Dewey said that neither
by vocation, disposition, education
or training was he capacitated to
fill the presidency. He said that he
was too well along in life to consid-
er such a possibility. His health
will not admit. All his life's work
was in different lines of effort, and
that, while the kindness and enthu.
siasm of his friends were grateful to
him and the generous tributes of the
American people were dear to him,
he could not and would not be can
didate for the presidency of the
United States under any conditions.

FAITHFUL UNTIL DEATH.
Sad Romsnce of a Rough Ridcr and the
Girl Tie Loved.

Girl He Loved.
One of the saddest romances that
has recently come to light in the
Indian Territory was terminated
last week by the death of Miss Ar
tie Sedwick, at her home near the
little town of Pryor Creek. This
romance began with the enlistment
of the Indian Territory contingent
of Colonel Roosevelt's Rough Rid
ers who went to Cuba under the
brave though luckless Capt. Ca
prom, who fell in the first land
battle fought with the Spaniards.
When Troop l. of the famous
Rough Riders was organized at
Muskogee, little over a year ago,
it was with Dan Seabright as one
of the number. Seabright was a
dashing. popular cowboy, possess
ed of the peculiar fearlessness that
characterized Col. Roosevelt's
brave regiment and won glory for
him and themselves at the battle
of Las Quasimas and at the charge
up San Juan hill. Seabright, at
the time of his enlistment. was en-
gagged to marry Miss Sedwick upon
his return from Cuba, but owing
to a misunderstanding after he left
for that island, he failed to return
to his old haCnts in the territory
after the Rough Riders were mus
tered out of service. 1t appears
that a cousin of Miss Sedwick was
member of the Rough Riders.
and while they were in Cuba this
cousin was apprised of the mar
riage of a territory cousin to a
prominent cattleman. Seabright,
misunderstanding this information,
thereafter iabored under the i'm
preston that this was the girl he
had promised to return and wed.
With this belief in his mind, he,
instead of returning to the terri
tory according to promise, went
down into Texas after being mus
tered out. and never discovered his
mistake until it was too late to
make amends.
Last week the Territory Rough
Riders held their first reunion at
Pryor Creek, and Seabright was in
attendance. There he learned the
truth. The girl he was to have re-
turned to and welded was yet un-
married, but, alas! dying of con-
sumption at her home ten miles
away. Her death had been daily
expected for weeks. With genuine
sorrow and pity depicted on his
IdCc, NOlLS DcoU1 lSuI anu q COhA
panion started Immediately for the
home of the dying girl An hour
or so later they were met at the
door of the farm house by an old
lady with ar-stained eyes, who
bade them enter.
She said to tell you she waited
as long as she could" said the
weeping woman, as she lifted a
white sheet and disclosed cold,
white face. The girl had died but
few hours before Seabright
reached her.
