AN ARMENIAN PASTOR
 VICTIM OF ENEMIES
The Presence in Phoenix of Rev. P.
 Isaac Nazareth.

The newspapers of Fresno, Cal. have lately given great deal of space to what was alleged to be the abduction of Mozart Vartanian, a young Arme- nian girl of that city by Rev. P. Isaac Nazareth. for some years pastor of the Armenian Trinity church of that city. His arrest at Ask Fork on a charge of abduction iS described at length
 Rev MT. Nazareth is now in Phoe- nix having arrived here from Prescott day before yesterday. It is evident that he was not. guilty of the crime charged against him for the circumstances, which are at variance with those re- lated by the Fresno newspapers, are all strongly in his favor.
 MT. Nazareth is a highly educated gentleman who came to this country from Constantinople six years ago, and a little more than four years ago he went to Fresno, where he engaged in teaching languages. Later he became the pastor of the Armenian church there,
 Among the members of his church was the family of the Vartanians. in- cIuding the girl. Mozart. AS she grew older an affection sprang up between her and her pastor and teacher and fi- nally MT. Nazareth who was prevented by his sacerdotal vows from marry ing resolved to denounce his profess sion.
 There was apparently a schism in the church, one faction supporting the pastor and another vigorously oppos- ing him. The Vartanians looked with disfavor upon his love for their daugh- ter and as she was not yet of legal age. marriage was impossible
 Fresno accounts of this affair de- scribe the girl as being a little more than fourteen years of age MT Naza reth before leaving Fresno, desiring to satisfy himself regarding her age, pro- cured three school enrolment cards. two signed by the mother of the girl. and one by her father. Those cards variously show the years of her birth to be 1889 and 1890. So that she is now either sixteen or seventeen years of age. But the age is not essential.
 It was further stated by one of the Fresno papers that Mir Nazareth and the girl left there the same day. An other said that the girl left first and that she had been provided with money by a friend of MT. Nazareth
 It IS shown though, that Mr. Naza- reth left Fresno three weeks ago. trav- cling through the north in search of a position. He arrived at Williams about a week ago from the east. He had given the girl the key to his postoffice box and had instructed her to for ward his letters to him to the ad- dresses which he would give to her as he proceeded on his travels He wir- ed her from Williams that his next stopping place would be at Ash Fork. He was astounded later to receive a telegram from her informing him that she was on the way to Ash Fork. giv- ing the number of the train on which she was travelling.
 Realizing the danger of the step the g-rl was taking, MT. Nazareth went to Seligman to meet her and travelled with her back to Ash Fork, in the course of the journey showing her the

laughingly on, leaving the herder still waving
his hands and calling after us some seemingly
senseless remark about the hair blowing loose
from the Old Womans head.
Having driven that day as nigh as we could
possibly attain with wheeled vehicle, We
went into camp near a creek of ice cold wa
ter, whose source was one of the great per-
manent now-beds farther up the mountain,
and very early next morning, even before
the sentinel stars" had gone off duty, we
set out over the ridges of rock and the fields
of old snow, which still intervened between
us and the distant peak.
We had been sitting for some time upon
one OF these ridges, spying about the coun-
try through the field glass and, incidentally,
getting our breath again, when Frank laid
his hand upon my arm and whispered:
"Ted; sheep"
"Where?" L asked, lowering the glass and
gazing about in all directions.
That's more than / can tell you," he re-
piled; "but l can smell EN-"
l had been vaguely conscious myself that
there was a familiar odor in the air, but as
soon as Frank made that remark | recog-
nized that it was the smell of sheep strong
and unmistakable.
We quickly arose, and turning our faces to
the wind walked cautiously along the ridge,
picking our way with great care over the
loose stones, and peering round the project
ing corners OF the rocks as we advanced,
until we arrived at a point where a little
precipice barred our way. From this cogn
Of vantage we deserted, about two hundred
yards away, band of ten 'big- horns" walk
ing one behind the other across the snow,
making for the pine woods.
"Ted," whispered Frank, excitedly, "let
us try a shot from here. It's no use follow
ing them over the snow, they can't help see
ing us. Let us both shoot at the first one
As soon as you are ready I'll count three and
well fire together"
The two rifles went OFF like one; the wind
blew the smoke aside, and we had the sat
isfaction of seeing the sheep we had aimed
at fall forward upon it's head. It was up
again directly, however, and the whole band,
whirling about, fled for the almost unscalable
heights of the Old Woman mountain. AS
they passed below us We saw that the wound
ed one, which. was rapidly being left be-
hind by the others, was going upon three
legs; Frank and /, therefore, scrambling down
hastily from the ridge, set off as fast as we
could run over the hard, slippery snow to
try to intercept it ere it should reach the
rocks.
The main flock was by this time far ahead
running up the mountain. But the wounded
animal, instead Of attempting to follow the
others, kept on its course up the hollow for
some distance, and then, turning TO the right.
it ran up little gully, climbed over ledge
of rocks, and was lost to view for the mo-
ment. Frank and were a hundred yards or
20 behind at the time. but as soon as we

- The "Old Woman" is the most
northerly, the highest and the
toughest point of the long serrated range
which shuts off the valley from the eastern
world. On rare occasions, usually in the late
fall, one may see streamer of mist drifting
away like thin cloud Of smoke from the
summit of the mountain. Issuing, apparent
ly, out of the mountain itself, its motion
athwart the gttering blue sky is clearly vlsi-
BILE; and yet though it may thus steadily
drift away for twelve hours at stretch, It's
volume neither increases nor diminishes. Ihe
cloud ends in mid air, vanishing from sight.
Nothing comes Of it. Its appearance in short,
though interesting, Is without significance
to the unintiated
The cause of this phenomenon is, / be-
ieve, that a warm breeze, striking the slope
of the mountain and being thus detected up
ward, comes in contact with cold stratum
of air above, when the moisture in the former
is converted into vapor. Then, as | suppose,
the mist settling down again into the lower
stratum, is restored by the warmth to its
original state and is no longer visible.
Whatever may be the cause, however, it
is certain that the chair" does sometimes
blow loose from the Old Woman's head, and
that when it does SO it behooves one to take
care"
Francis Allen, my uncle, had purchased a
ranch near the head of the San Pedro Val
ley, and there had been spending the au-
tumn months, when, early in November, my
cousin, Francis, the younger, after much
broOding, Matched out an alluring plan for
our joint entertainment, namely, that we
should go off together and try for some
mountain sheep, which were known to haunt
the fastnesses Of the great peak. According
ly, with full permission from the household
authorities, away we drove one brilliant
morning. expecting to be gone four days-one
day going two days hunting, and one day
coming back.
As we traversed the valley we observed
that a stream Of mist was blowing away from
the summit of the peak, but, knowing nothing
Of the local adage, we paid no attention to
it until, having arrived near the foot of
the range, we met an old Mexican sheep
herder tending one of Uncle Francis hocks,
who, when he saw the rifles and guessed our
object, began to talk Mexican to us with
great eagerness; pointing to the summit Of
the peak, shaking his head, and motioning
with his hands as though he would prevent
us from going on.
For myself, / could not understand a word
ne said, and Frank, though he did know a
few Spanish words, was not much more en-
Iightened; so, as we could not make out what
the old man was talking about We nassed
