DENVER WOMAN
WEOS AN INDIAN
Marriage Completes a Ro.
nance Covering Period of
Five Years.
BRIDES FAMILY OBJECTED.

Denver. Dec. 30-News has been
received here that Miss Cora Marie
Arnold, of this city. was married last
Monday in Santa Fe, \. NJ, TO Albine
Chavarria. a full-blOOded Indian. The
wedding ends a romance which began
five years ago. during the Mountain
and Plain festival, when a number of
Indians were brought to this city.
The ceremony was performed by
the Rev RendOn, a Presbyterian cler-
gyman, and was Witnessed by the
brides sisters, Miss Lillian and Ge-
neva Arnold, of Denver.
Chavarria is chief Of the Santa
Clara Indians. a tribe of the PueblOs
in New Mexico. With large number
of his tribesmen he was in camp in
the city park, in Denver, five years
ago, when Miss Arnold saw him and
Immediately formed an attachment
for him. After frequent visits to the
camp Miss Arnold invited the Indian
to call at her home. She lived at the
time in fashionable flat with her
sisters and her step-father, George
Wilder. The brides family always
objected.

THE LAND OF ROMANCE.
Spain and the Peculiar Tempe m CIV

Spain and the Peculiar Tempera emit
of Its People.
If I were asked to sum up the domi-
Spain of the old world mediaevalism
makes, l should say that Spain is in
the precise and specific sense of the
word the home of romance. The spe-
cial character of the Spanish tempera-
ment and of Spanish developments in
literature and in art is marked by
quality, rising and sinking with the
rise and fall of Gothic, which we call
the romantic spirit-a mixture. that is,
of the mysterious and grandiose with
the grotesquely bizarre of the soaringly
ideal with the crudely real a mixture
which to us today has the cunning fas-
cination Of art, but was really on both
sides the natural outcome Of the ex-
periences and feelings of the men who
created it. This romantic spirit was
once the common possession of all
Christendom, but the Spanish tempera-
ment peculiarly lent itself to the ro-
mantle attitude, and it is in Spain to-
day that we may catch its final vanish
ing echoes. 1t is the church, always
the most powerful stronghold of tradi-
ton among any people, which enables
the stranger most WILDLY to realize
how well the romantic spirit has been
preserved in Spain. Notwithstanding
invasions from without and revolutions
from within. especially during the
early years of the last century, Spain
Is still the country where the mediae-
val spirit of romantic devotion is most
splendidly embodied and preserved

Smoking Said to Serve as an Index to

A person who smokes q cigar with

ostentatious; a person who selects a
cigar because 1t is sprinkled with light
spots is an ignoramuS who credits any

rette is more often than not of an
irascible or peevish nature. SO says
the London Tribune, which adds:
Smoking is also a great test of natu-
raj courtesy in any individual. One
can trace seltishness. boorishness, self
assertiveness. timidity or good temper
in a smokers demeanor in any mixed
company. Judging upon the example
of Mr.. Kipling, 1t has been asserted
that the man who knocks his pipe
ashes out behind the parlor couch is
usually genius. But this is some
what empty assertion. and al any rate
it comprises a belief that is in nowise
shared by housewives and landladies.
AS concluding rule for diagnosing
character by tobacco habits. 1t may be
accepted that the best men smoke

1t was a number of years ago, in the
stormy time of the home rule debates,
that an Irish member. in the small
hours of the morning, produced from
his pocket paper bag and drew out a

uproar. There were loud cries Of "Or,
