If a member misspells a word or writes inappropriately, tell her; do not pass her note around.
 If a woman is not accustomed to the ways of society and does foolish things, tell her of it yourself; do not confide it to the editress of the SO ciety column. If a woman is foolish enough to rush to the editorial rooms when her pink tea is rot reported to her mind, do not make fun of her be fore your dinner guests, just because you have the gift of imitation.

ARRESTED FOR RAF E
ALsT. WooLVERToN ACCUSED OF
 FORCING GIRL TO MARRY.

Is Now Confined in Jail in Graham County Awaiting His Trial Which Win Occur in October.
 Albert F. Woolverton, who was ar rested in Douglas several days ago has been taken to Solomonville and turned over to Jailer Sands, at the county jail. Woolverton is charged with a seri- GUS ofense, that of rape and forcible marriage, alleged to have been com- nitted near Pima during the month of September of last year. The warrant has been sworn to by Miss Liiia Webb. of Pima. The complaint states that Woolyerton forced Miss Webb, much against her will, to become his wife. To make his demand more for cible it is said that he used pistol in a threatening manner.
 When seen at the county jail in Soiomonville by a Bulletin reporter Woolverton said: Tn the first place I do not know exactly what charges
 
 told that it is rape and forcible mar riage If that is the case will have no trouble in proving before the court that I am entirely innocent. have the marriage license here signed by my wife in her handwriting, and also several letters that she has written me from time to time. I can prove that acted only in an honorable way as loved the girl.
 T have the highest regard for a good woman, and that my wife is. I have a mother and sister whom l love and honor and would not for anything in the world bring their names in repute by acting as my enemies claim I have. A man would not wrong a woman that be loves, and love my wife. l As soon as we were married it was decided that my wife should still con true to go to school. and would go 10 Bisbee where I would provide her a home When l left her that was the understanding and was happy in the thought that we would soon have a home of our own.
 T have lived in this county for elev. eT years and have never wronged any one. This is the first time that have ever been in jail and l feel the disgrace keenly. I have always en deayored to bear a good reputation and that can prove by many people
 My wife has been prevailed upoI to make this charge against me by par ties who did not wish to see her be come my wife. But when the charge is heard in court will have no trouble ir clearing myself"
 Woolverton feels keenly the disgrace brought upon him by the arrest When he was brought into the jail anC placed in the cell, he broke down com pletely and sobbed like achiid.
