RESERVATION ROMANCE
 THE lIEUTtNANT'S CASE
He Gave up a Military Career for Love of a Sacaton Indian Maiden.

While here, Mir. Francis F.. Leupp. the head of the Indian office in an in terview said that the hope of the In- dian lay in amalgamation with the whites. In one case at least this anal gamation proved to be a bad thing for the white man, whether or not it help ed the Indian. The facts of the case, which has a strong local tinge, have just come to light, with the recent dis charge of the white husband from the United States civil service under which he has been employed in cler- iCal capacity at the SacatOn reserva- ton.
 This man was a West Pointer. had served through the Spanish-American war, and for a time after the war he was stationed in the Philippines. About the time the senate committee on military affairs was Investigating the water cure" to the F'ilipinos, this officer who for the purpose Of this narrative shall be called the lieuten- ant, was summoned before the com mittee. Though he was supposed to know as much about the water cure" as any man living, the committee learned little from him, so adroitly evasive were his answers. He was not a recalcitrant witness, but he was a very unsatisfactory one. He was granted a six months leave of absence without requesting it and for some reason he came to the Sacaton reser- vation to put in a part of the period of his enforced idleness.
 A visit which was intended to be short, was stretched out through the whole vacation of six months. He be-

WONDERFUL MEMORY
 OF PEltR NElSSfN
The Man Who Knows More Than any , Other About the Early Agricultural
 Affairs of the Valley.

So far the most interesting devel- | opment in the hearing of the case of Hurley Vs. Abbott and others. is the remarkable memory of Peter Nel- ssen. the owner of a tract of land southwest of the city. Early in the trial of the case it was brought out that MT. Nelssen was more or less fa- miliar with all the lands. at least those under the Salt River Valley canal, which had been cultivated within the ! last generation or since 1873, when he came to the valley. He therefore 1 became the chief witness and succeed ed in astonishing the court and the at torneys by tn extent and accuracy of his recollection of the early settlers.
 In every case he has been able to tell who settled upon a certain tract of land, the date of the settlement, the number of members of the family of the settler, their names and when they died A great deal of the information he has disclosed has been verified, in fact so much of it has been verified that all parties are disposed to accept as absolutely true all that is not sus- ceptible of verification.
 He has frequently been on the stand. and in fact is called to the stand when il seems impossible to secure testimony concerning some obscure fact in any other way. Yesterday he was asked about tract of land which it had been stated began to be culti- vated in 1873. That was confirmed by MT. Nelssen It had been understood that the whole tract was in cultivation
 Hr cold was not the case. There was a large patch of mesquite in the southeast cor ner of the tract. which was not clean ed off in 1873. Every year he said, the area of mesquite Was reduced and the land was brought under cultivation. but it was not until 1879 that the en- tire tract was under cultivation.
 Now and then. a question is asked Mir Nelssen which he does not an swer readily Instead of scratching his head to agitate his tagging memory as the average man in such 'circum- stances does, MT. Nelssen gently rubs the side of left thumb with the fore finger of his right hand. and the whole thing comes to him.
 But a curious thing happened yes terday. In the course of the inquiry his own tract of land was reached and though he had settled upon it as late as 1886 his recollection of events con- corning it was at first rather hay and he suggested that perhaps some other person whom he named might know more about it than he. You have been a pretty good witness for everybody else" said the court, you ought to be able to testify for your self" Mir. Nelssen did testify. but not with the certainty and confidence with which he had given his evidence in the cases of other tracts of land with which he had had no connection.
 This surprising falling down of MT. Nelssen recalled the fate of Rhamnes. the Latin seer-king,
 "To Turnus dear. q prophet and a
 prince,
 Whose omens more thau augur's skill
 evince.
 But he who thus foretold the fate of
 all
 Could not avert his own untimely
 fall"

came enamored of a handsome and educated Indian girl. not a full blood, engaged in teaching in the reservation school.
 During the stay of the lieutenant at the reservation he met Phoenix bus inessman who was on a hunting trip and they spent several days together so that their relations became quite confidential. One day the lieutenant told his Phoenix friend that he had determined to marry the Indian girl. The Phoenix man, who had been in Arizona almost ever since it became a part of the frontier, endeavored to dis suade him. In his opinion all Indian maidens, whatever may have been their advantages of education and good looks, all come to the same end. and after middle life all look alike He told the lieutenant that however Cul- tuTed an Indian wife might be she would never be accepted as an equal LN the wives of his brother officers. and in the end he would have either tn abandon his wife or his military career. The lieutenant believed though that the Indian girl he was going to make his wife was different from any Indian girl the sun had ever Shone on. He felt toward this girl very much the same as all men. white and black. from the dawn Of creation have felt toward the girls they are about to marry. He was further told that he could not marry the girl in this terri tory. The lieutenant replied m effect that love would find way and that E.. fal- ha Nation to an army post in North De- kota to which he was to be assigned at the end of his leave of absence.
 The Phoenix man afterward learned that the lieutenant and the girl were married but he was not informed of the circumstances of the marriage nor of the place where it was solemnized. IL has since been learned that the li- cense was procured in Pima county and that the lieutenant swore that he himself had Indian blood in his veins.
 The Phoenix man supposed that the lieutenant was still in the army until a couple of weeks ago on his return from California he met the lieutenant. and wife a; Maricopa. There had been a considerable reversion to the abOrig-

 The Phoenix man observed that the lieutenant was looking rather seedy; he asked him if he was still in the army. He replied that he had resign ed; he had wearied of a military ca reer but he was now in the civil ser vice, employed as a clerk at Sacaton. He said that he had accompanied his wife to Maricopa on her way to the coast for the summer.
 Docs the state of your finances warrant such an outing?" asked the Phoenix man jocularly.
 "Oh. hell" replied the lieutenant se- riously; ''it isn't a question of finan- ces; she says it's too hot on the res ervation and that settles it."
 The man himself is now on the coast and out of all touch with the govern ment in whose service he began a promising military career.

BARON AND BARONESS
 VON ZGlINITzKI
A Brief Story of Their First Meeting
 and Sketch of the Baron's Life and
 Family. s,

Mention was made a few days ago of the marriage of in Joplin, Mo, of Miss Helen Nicholson. formerly of Phoenix, and Baron von Zglinitsd of Germany. The Kansas City Journal O. June contains an extended account of the wedding and biographical sketches of the principals, and from it is taken the following concerning the baron:
 While travelling in Belgium three years ago Miss Nicholson was rescued in runaway after she left a Brussels theater. by Guy de Reyntschen, a lieu tenant in the Belgium guards, and as the new baroness expresses it, "Apol- los rival in form and features" When Baron von Zglinitski won the hand of Miss Nicholson. Germany triumphed over Belgium, for the Belgian officers attentions to the young American wo- man had created much interest in the social circles at the Belgian capital.
 Baron von Zglinitski met Miss Nich- olson al the Francais Choiseul. at Paris. where the Nicholsons were stopping. The attachment grew stronger while they travelled from cap ital to capital of the old world. The Belgian officer was away with his reg iment. but his letters played a strong hand and Miss Nicholson said ''yes" to Paul, Baron von Zglinitski.
 Following their engagement the bride of today returned to her home in this city. Baron Von Zglinitsh also came to Joplin, and in order to famil- iarize himself with life in the lead and zinc mining region, and with the prac- tieal operation of mines with which he will in the future be identified, he voluntarily took upon himself the bur den of a common shoveler in the mines sharing the hardships and perils of the men who wrest treasure from the miserly rocks far down beneath the surface. The first week he received a check from his father-in-law for s11.SS. He was invited to ''sociaI gathering" after his first week as a shoveler in the mines.
 "The powder-monkey, the tram monkey, and the other miners simply got drunk at their guests expense" reflects Baron von Zglinitski.
 Baron and Baroness von Zgiinitski will spend their honeymoon in Europe. They will leave New York City in July for LippeDetmold. to attend, as guests of Countess von Rittberg, the German army maneuvers to be held there in August. They will spend the

autumn at Beeskow, their country place. They will visit frequently with roy alty and nobility in Berlin and will enjoy the scenes that were dear 10 the baron before he left the German army because of a duel in which he was a principal.
 Two days after his duel, In 1898, Baron von Zglinitsk left his native country for the United States and ap- piled at Governors island at New York for admission into the United States army in the war with Spain. He was to be assigned to the infantry service if he entered the army. As Germans of nobility consider infantry men second-raters, the baron declined and became private secretary to Hon. Charles R. Flint, New York banker, and later represented Flint in Europe.
 Paul, Baron von Zglintitski comes from a family whose ancestry dates back to 1300A. D. While of Polish ancestry his family has been connect ed with the German nobility for 300 years. At the partition of Poland one of the baron's ancestors was taken prisoner by the Prussian king, who later became attached to his prisoner and made him Baron of Zglinitski.
 The baron is the son of a corps com mander of the German army. He is 34 years old and speaks five languages. He was once a favorite lieutentant in the First Guard Field artillery, of which the emperor is himself the col onel. He spent six years in the Ger man army. the first two having been served in the Thirteenth hussars. His transfer to the emperor's regiment from the hussars was a reward for bravery in saving the life of a staff officer.

what Mission Has Democracy?


HAS the Democratic party a mis-
sion? If so, what is it? Does de-
mocracy stand for a code of poiit-
ical principles. or Is it merely an or
ganization formed to SECURE Of
fees for its members? From the
arguments that are advised from
some of our metropolitan newspa-
pers one would suppose it had no
concern about principles and little
reason for existence"
Mr.. Bryan himself appears doubt
full about his party having mission
and uses the little word "if." doubt
less believing in all it implies in
this case. That it does not stand
for a code a political principles
must be conceded by all. It's own
record the last decade shows that.
The change from Organism and free
silver to Parkerism and the gold
standard ought to he sufficient to
convince Bryan that 1t does not
stand for a code. of political prin-
ciples. That it is merely an organ
lZaIlOn formed ana existing TO Sc
cure offices for its members is as
sured by the actions of Mr.. Bryan
and other members of the so-called
party. And it Is is true that it has
little. if any. reason for existence,
as the metropolitan papers argue. as
Il las accomplished nothing nation
ally in more than half a century
and it is not necessary for it to ex-
list longer to secure national offices
as its case is hopeless In this re-
spect. and, it has shown itself in
capable of the proper administra-
ton of those offices. when it does
get them.
Indeed. Mr.. Bryan's questions are
timely and pertinent and it is we'll
that he ponders over the subject
sufficiently long to give it serious
consideration. Let it be hoped for
the good of the country that he may
quickly but firmly conclude that
the country would be better OFF with
out a party that merely exists be
cause of the hope that it may some
time get the Offices.

AnoLher Strnm Vote.

Straw votes continue to show a
marked favoritism for Taft as a
presidential candidate. The Scrfpps-
McRea League, composed of indie
pendent newspapers, recently re-
quested the editors of the leading
independent newspapers of the
various congressional districts of
the United States 20 indicate the
sentiment OF their district in re-
gard to their choice for the presi-
dency in 1905. Responses from 2S5
districts show the Taft sentiment
to be away in the lead. In answer
TO the question: IF Roosevelt is
eliminated, who will your congress
sional- district favor for the Repuh-
licau candidate?" there were 13G
votes for Taft. for Knox, Is for
Fairbanks. Is for Hughes. 9 for La
Toilette. s for Cannon and for
Shaw. In answer to the question:
Who do You believe will be the
next President of the, United
States?" the responses were as fol-
lows: Taft So. Roosevelt GA,
Bryan 81. Hughes 10, Knox 4. Fair
banks 2. Folk and Cannon. Gull
bertson and Cortelyou each l.
AS Taft is conceded to be Presi-
dent Rooseyelt's choice for presi-
dent , and US large number of the
straw voters believe Roosevelt him
self will be the next president, the
sentiment in this straw vote does
not appear to swerve from the gen
eral desire for continuation OF
Roosevelt policies.
