Arthur Brown and Eula King Leave to Get Married in
 Globe.
PARENTS OBJECTED
 BECAUSE OF AGE.
Mrs. King Distracted Because of Daughters Act, and Would Have Her Placed in Reform School.

Unable to get the consent of their
 parents to a wedding under normal
 conditions, because of their youth,
 Miss Eula King and Arthur Brown
 eloped yesterday morning, their des-
 tinarion being Globe or Cananea. For several weeks the young people ! sought in vain to convince their par
 ents that they should be permitted ts
 get a marriage license and have the
 nuptal knot tied with all the home i trimmings.
 Failing in their arguments, Brown
 and Miss King quietly left the city on | the S:45' o'clock train, their absence not being discovered until after noon.
 by which time they were well on their
 way toward Globe, where it is bellev-
 ed they will be married.
 Planning for several days the elope-
 ment, as is shown by facts that came
 to light yesterday, the youngsters had no trouble in getting out of the city. i They took but little with them, either
 in the way of wearing apparel or | money.
 Miss King, who is but r years old, | complained to her mother yesterday 1 morning before starting for the Miners store, where she has been employee,
 that at the skating rink the night | previous she fell and hurt one of her l feet. Believing that it would be better 1 for her daughter to take lunch to 1 the place of her work, instead of walk l ing home for dinner, she busted about | the kitchen and prepared dainty iit- | tie repast for her daughter. About noon Mrs. King became sus- i picious, and sent a boy to the Miners store to learn if her daughter was there safe and sound. The lad was | Informed by one of the proprietors | that Miss King had not been there at
 all during the day.
 When these painful tidings were l carried to Mrs. King, she lost no time | getting to the office of Justice Me
 Donald to invoke his assistance in | getting back her daughter. She met
 another disappointment.
 Justice Mcdonald had to inform her | that he was powerless to make any complaint against either Miss King nr Brown, as neither of them had com
 nitted a crime, and until they asked ! for a marriage license and sworn they were both of age they could not be apprehended through the justice court. Taking down the statutes of Ari- zona. Justice Mcdonald read that sec | ticn to Mrs. King which sets forth that | the parent or guardian of a child can
 make complaint either in the Probate | Court of the District Court that a child l is ipcorrigible.
 Gladly would Mrs. King have charg- ed her erring girl with incorrigibility, and had her brought into court, where she would have given testimony shaC would land the young lady in the re- form school.
 Only one thing prevented the dis tracted mother from making charge of this kind against her absent daugh- ter and that is the expense she would have to insur and time lost in going to Tombstone to appear before either I District Judge Doan or Probate Judgs
 Goodbody.
 With bitter tears streaming down
 her pale cheeks, Mrs. King left the court room to seek the home of a
 friend and there advise with her re-
 rardine what she would do. Under
 the circumstances, all that remains is
  people and their penitent return to ask
 the forgiveness and blessing of their parents.
 Belief that the eloping couple went
 70 Globe is based on the fact that Brown has a brother there. A tele-
 gram from that city taoday or tomor- row announcing that the couple have
 been married would not surprise sew
 eral who know them.
 Brown is but 19 years old and is the
 son of J. L. Brown. the well-known
 timekeeper in the Copper Queen store.
 He has been employed until recently | in the mine sawmill, he hurt his foot a few days ago by having 1t crushed
 and had to lay of.
 1 Mrs. King. mother of the missing girl, is widow lady, residing on
 Opera Drive above the. opera house.
 Her daughter has for some time past contributed to her support as the re-
 suit of her employment in the Miners l store. Fs s
