tlemen. The county law officers were
unable to cope with these daring mar
auders
The territory of Arizona has twice
the area of New York state and less
than half the population of Newark, N.
j.. so there is plenty of room for the
desperate to swing. But the ranger Is
so named because he, too, knows the |
ranges. The rangers usually work to-
gether in squads of two or three, and |
as there are only 26 of them it means
that they are widely scattered, but |
they keep in close touch with the office |
of Gov. Brodie, with whom they file
weekly report showing just what they
are doing.
The men are selected from hundreds
of competitors, after undergoing thor
ough tests to determine their ability as
horsemen and their skill in roping,
trailing and shooting. Capt. Rynning,
of Douglas, is at the head of the ran
gers.
The individual members of the COM
| pany are not known to the public. The
original company was once lined up
and photographed, but since then the
wisdom of keeping the individuality of
the men secret has been learned. This
| element of secrecy more than doubles
the effectiveness of force, for no gang
| of outlaws can now be brought to-
gether without the risk Of including
ranger who will upset all the wicked
plans at the right moment.
This little band of men made 4G3 ar
rests during the year ending June 30,
1904. Five of these were murderers and
l55 had committed felonies. In taking
this number of men it is highly to the
credit of the company that only one of
the bad men was killed. That does not
read like border tale, but it shows
how carefully the rangers work.
One thing which makes every Art-
= conan proud of the rangers is the i'm
portant fact that there has not been a
train robbery or lynching since the
rangers were organized.
The most interesting facts about this
little company are to be gathered from
Can't. Rynnings report, which shows
that on the average each man rides S9O
miles a month, or a total for the entire
force of 1O,140 miles. The rangers have
worked in conjunction with the live
; stock sanitary board and the Arizona
Cattle Growers association, and they
have restored hundreds of lost cattle
sheen and goats Smugglers, Chinese
= unlawfully in the country, and persons
who sell whisky to Indians are also
under their ban.

While the destruction of our forests,
due to the heavy demand for paper pulp
has been decried, it looks as though We
should not suffer for pulp making ma
terial while Canada has such tracts as
the newly opened district of Algoma.
Here there are reported to be more than
100 900 900 cords of pulp wood alone,
and If this is not sufficient the Thunder
Bay and Rainy River districts can sup
ply 20O,O0000O cords more. Canadian
territory has been developed largely
along the lines of the railroads and
waterways. and she can furnish timber
to the United States for centuries to
come by opening new country.

Remarkable Cure of Dropsy by Dodd's
Kidney Pills.

Sedgwick, Ark, June l9.-The case of w.
S. Taylor's little son is looked upon by
those interested in medical matters as one
of the most wonderful on record. In this
connection his father makes the following
statement
Last September my little boy had
dropsy; his feet and limbs were swollen
to such an extent that he could not walk
or put his shoes on. The treatment that
the doctors were giving him seemed to
do him no good, and two or three, people
said his days were short, even the doctors,
two of the best in the country told me he
would not get better. l stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd' s
Kidney Pills. | gave him three Pills. a
day, one morning, noon. and night for for
eight days; at the end of the eighth day
the swelling was all gone, but to give
the medicine justice, | gave him eleven
more Pills. used thirty-five Pills in all
and he was entirely cured. ] consider
your medicine saved my child's life. When
the thirty-fve Pills. were given him, he
could run, dance and sing, whereas before
he was an invalid in his mothers arms
from morning until night"

KYLE SLEPT PRETTY WELL.
But the Drummers In Neighboring
Rooms Could Not Say
as Much.

Representative Kyle, Of Ohio, has
high, sweet tenor voice, and is known to
his colleagues as "the sweet singer from
Ohio" He is in great demand at din
ners, where he sings old Scotch songs
melodiously, says Washington paper.
When he was out campaigning in his dis
trict last fall he arrived at country ho-
tel where half dozen drummers were to
put up for the night also. Kyle told the
landlord he wanted quiet room where he
could sleep undisturbed, as he was very
tired.
Next morning at breakfast the drum
mers w protesting loudly because their
rest hau been disturbed by the snoring
of the man in room 10. They variously
described the snoring as the worst they
had ever heard. Most of them said they
had not slept a wink.
How did you rleep?" asked one Of the
drummers of Kyle.
Zine" said Kyle; "never heard thing
from the time struck the bed until this
morning. / got great nights rest"
"In heavens name, where did you
sleep" asked the drummers.
"fn room 49," Kyle replied.

world, but he had trick up his sleeve
all the time.

They would be married on the sly
and go on the round-the-world trip
together. 1t would be a fine honey
moon!
At first the young woman objected, but
love finally conquered, and, on the 81
of August, 1899, in little Eplscopal
mission church out in RuXbury, they
were wed by Rev. Edward l.. Atkinson.

his bride telegraphed the Bigelows in
Boston that the wedding had taken
place and also informed the brides
parents. Then they went aboard the
vessel to Japan and let the families do
all the worrying.
OF course there was something ter
rible in the way of worrying around the

by the time Mr. and Mrs. Bigelow, Jr,,

belled, fearing the consequences when
his family should hear that the scion
had made such mesalliance.
Horatio Bigelow, though, was not
to be put off in this way, for he loved
Mary Reise. He told his family about
it, and his family was beautifully,
magnificently shocked and when a
Boston family, backed up with S30,OO0,-
900, gets shocked, it is something
worth seeing.
1t should not be! said the family.
Never! 1t was foolish idea on the
part of the boy. He must be sent
around the world to see other places,
other faces, and forget the pretty
daughter of the humble arsenal ma
chinist. A shopgirl! Ugh!
Young Bigelow was no fool. He
loved Mary Reise, she loved him, and
he preferred her, only too wisely, to
any of the specialized, erudite, blue
blooded Back Bay young persons who
in his family's estimation, would
make the sort OF bride he shoult
have. He knew his family thorough
ly, and was aware of the fact that tt
cross them would be disagreeable. 81

Boston.-The little god, Cupid, has

Loft society In state of collapse from
which it is not expected to recover
soon.
Boston society-the society which
lives in the alphabetical streets OF the
Back Bay, is more exclusive than
hermit, that graduates from Harvard
to State street and from the Puritan
club to the Somerset-is shocked
again.
1t is the same old shock-the shock
that hits Boston just so often and
knocks its eyeglasses off-a Boston
Bluestocklng has gone and married a
shopgirl.
According to the Boston corre-
spondent of the New York World you
would think that Boston would be
used to such an occurrence by this
time. Harrison Grey Otis started it
when he chose the daughter of an
East Boston baker for his bride, and
since that day probably no less than
40 scions of old Puritan families have
found their fates behind the counters
at Jordan's or Whites or even
Houghton S.
But Boston simply won't get used
to it; it insists on being shocked
every time it happens, hence the fact
that Marlborough street resounds with
"Did-you-evers" and "I-want-to'
knows" and even the flowers in the
public gardens are shaken.
This time the shockers are th'
usual characters; Harvard man, tall

he got out of the army and came east
to do more in the world. Machinery
was his trade, and he obtained a posi-
ton at the Watertown arsenal, where
he is still employed. He and his wife
brought up the girls in pretty little
cottage at No. 70 Dexter avenue, Wa
tertown, and there the couple still live
with their two younger children.
When the twins became of an age
when they could work and thus add to
the family income, they obtained en-
ployment in that home of romance, the
dry goods establishment of Jordan,
Marsh C Co.. where they were placed
at the glove counter. Over this estab-
lishment there should fly a flag bear
ing the coat-of-arms of Cupid, two
hearts stuck together with an arrow,
| for it is from Jordan's that so many
beautiful young shopgirls have
emerged the brides of Boston's bluest-
blooded young men.
The Reise sisters were among the
prettiest girls in Jordan's, and that is
saying a great deal for them. 1t is
like saying that young woman is
the prettiest girl on Fifth avenue
