Mir Ralph II. MelcZ r, son of William Nielczcr the Phoenix merchant. who formerly resided at Nogales is now student al Yale college, and will grad nate from that instfution with the class of 1902. It is related that the y-ung gentleman, who IS now in his twenty-lnst year, takes great interest in hls fellow men, and is ever respon- sive to any deserving appeal for char fly. Recently he noticed that a news hoy from whom he daily bought the New Haven newspapers was ill kept and dirty, and the i}l-favored condition of the lad touched the young student One day Ee said to him;

 The young man arranged to have the hoy gather The entire number n a giv- cn day a little lat r when he took them all to bath has. and paid for regu- lar baths for chem an f1, two months and after they Were all hathed and sprucai up .e organizes them into q mutual benefit association. wi:h regu- 1arly elected nicars from among them selves. and provided a system of week lv assessments upon the members, t0 create a fund with which to keep up the baths. The association is thriving, dues gre promptly paid, and, as re suit of 4Ir. Nelczers initiative the newsh1ys of the City of Films are a cleaner and heater set than formerly.
 That the practical philanthropy thus evincfd by the young man is a source of great pride 0 his father goes with out saying. ani the elder Mr. Melczer enthusiastically encourages his son in such work.

teal girl as she ran into another room for
fear OF being seen.
The case was laid before him and
told him if he meant what he said that
very night was the time TO settle the
matter He jumped at the chance. So
took the scouts and went out in the
country and found the girl in an old
brought her back. I told her I could
not marry her myself, but another fellow
would This didn't suit her until she
saw the other fellow. and as he is really
a fine looking fellow. with lots OF money
she soon agreed that it was all right
We awakened the priest ana asked
him to help US out. He said that accord
ing to the rules the bonds should be read
In church three Sundays before he could
marry them, but under the circum-
stances he would marry them
then and there 1 would like to have
picture Of that ceremony. Myself and
the groom were the only white people
present and every man but the priest had
a pistol on. The ceremony was great TO
be sure. The priest could not talk Eng
lish and the groom could not talk Span
ish. so the priest married the bride and
1 married the groom. Don't know what
the priest said TO the bride as ne used
Latin, but 1 gave the groom q regular old
fashioned Methodist ceremony so far as
could remember. You would have
laughed TO hear me come over with all
my earthly goods I thee endow.' In
fact that was about all I remembered to
get right.
This fellow is all right though, for he
went and bought his wife's mother the
next day and they all live together as
happy as clans. He can't speak Spanish
but she is learning English and he has
made arrangements for her to go to
school and take usic lessons. TIE bought
her $50 worth Of new clothes and now she
is the swellestla in town. That viii buy

Then there is the warmest kind IF excite
ment among the women and the nervous
people who grab their grips and rush over
one another to get out When they set
out they learn that it is the rigot coach
and then a tearfdi scramble to get back
IN again IS made. The average gocd
.natured man. by this time has made up
his mind that he ~Il stay in that coach
whether it is the wrong one or the right
ore. After about .vo hours anc half
the train starts aa1 runs about mile
and then stops. Everybody thinks there
is a wreck and stick their head out the
windows only to see the conductor and
his crew dragging tramps of the roof
or from the trucks. About this time
usually the water in the tanks is ex-
hausted and somebody announces that
fact. All at once everybody gets as
thirsty as satan's wife and begin to holler
for water The corks Of small bottles
respond to their cries and the train starts
up. It travels awful slow and generally
misses the connecting train.
Travellers by way of the Choctaw wit
ness an exciting scene at klahoma
rush for the nearest joints and run back
with incredible rapidity with small bot
ties in their hands. If they are not con-
tinuing their journey they usually stay in
the joint and never quit it without at
least five beers. Everybody seems to be
a drinker in Oklahoma and they aren't 4
bit modest about 'indulging" publicly.
The most interesting sight on the trip
can be seen at night at the Santa Fe de-
pot at Oklahoma City. People transfer
