SCOTT, THE DEATH
 VALLEY MYSTERY
First Big Money-His Subsequent Operations Are Still shrouded in the Deepest Mystery.

Nobody ever secured quite so much
 rotoriety concerning his present activ
 ities, without more real facts being known about him, as Walter Scott, bet
 ter known as Seotty, the Death Valley
 miner, has done in the last two or
 three years The newspapers paint him as everything from stage robber to a hero, and all kinds of stories are told about him. The main fact in most of them is that he always has pocket full of money and spends it like a prince when he is out among people, and when it is gone or is running low, he goes back into Death Valley and gets another "roll" as big as he can carry around. Stories that do not em- bellish this main idea, assume the op- posite and paint him as cheap sport, one who makes big flash, but seldom makes good. Part of the stories make him fine sport and the rest of them make him a four fusher
 Between the two the pubic is di- vided in it's opinion, so far as it is in- terested in having an opinion, and both impressions are undoubtedly very much overdrawn. It is certain that he has done some very spectacular things and spent as much as his admirers claim. The amazing part of it is that he is always when showing provided with big rolls of greenbacks and nobody tolls of any occasion when he exchanged wagonload of gold dust for greenbacks, though if his money comes from gold mine he must do so, for it is hard to believe he has ledge of United States bank notes in his mine. Some time ago was given to a story emanat- ing from Nevada town to the effect that he is a highwayman and that whenever he gets short he goes out and holds up somebody. This story does not look very good on the face of it, for the business is most too preearious as dependable source of revenue, how,

HONEST GRAFT

The towering and dominating ambi-
 ton of Mayor Everhardy of Leaven- worth, Kan, was to make graft reput- able by converting its proceeds to the general welfare To this end, follow ing the time-honored example of the authorities of the city of Bangor, in the state of Maine, Mayor Everhardy col lected money at regular intervals from saloon proprietors in the prohibition state of Karsas and turned it into the city exchequer. This source of income yielded about $SO,OOO a year. Most of the citizens, and especially the tax. payers of Leavenworth, strongly ap- proved of grating in that shape. They had no objection to the presence of saloons, for they felt sure that liquor would be sold in their town anyway, and they thought it better to get reye- hue out of the traffic to defray a part of the cost of municipal government than to omit such an advantage. This mayor is a man of excellent repute, quite above suspicion. But despite his good intentions and high reputation he is in trouble, heaps of trouble. The state supreme court, regarding, as it was bound to do, the law rather than the considerations that influenced the mayor, has issued an custer for his honor. Our venerable contemporary, the Boston Advertiser, commenting on this episode, says: "The issue is the same in Kansas, in this instance and in other recent instances, as it is every where in this nation. It is the issue of law enforcement. If majority of the people do not like the laws as they ex- ist, let them change them. But the laws must be enforced in Kansas or in Massachusetts. Most of the evils from which we suffer in our states and cities are directly traceable to non-enforce- ment of law and the breaking down of respect for the law as such" But there are laws, both constitutional and stat ute, which cannot be either enforced or repealed. There are laws whose enforce ment or repeal is successfully resisted Probably there is not a state in the Union whose statute books are free from such enaetments. Of course all this is extremely undesirable, but some of it seems quite unavoidable. Perfee- ton is yet far in the future, and pend ing it's arrival the various communities in this and other countries will have to worry along under divers disagreeable | conditions. Meanwhile, however, it | will not be polite for public officials to engage in efforts like unto that which has brought woe to Mayor Everhardy. | Literally speaking, "honest graft" is an impossibility.

A Hearst Conference

Announcement was made here tonight following a visit to Max Ihmsen to spy out the prospects of the recount bill s passage, that national conference of the Independence. Leagues of the vari- ous states had been called to met in New York city in September.
 This is taken to be the first formal announcement of the Hearst intentions as to the presidency. No official edict on that subject was forthcoming.
 The Hearst people now have fairly well organized political machines in New York, Illinois, California and Mas sachusetts, nucleus in Texas, and fond hopes in many other states which en- thusiastic Hearstites say will blossom into excellent organizations between now and the time for the presidential eampaign.-Albany dispatch to the New York Tribune.

Active preparations for the engage ment of Mrs. Fiske and the Manhattan comranv at the Dreamland theater-- the biggest dramatic event that ever happened in Arizona-began yesterday, Manager John L. Alexander of Dream land and Philip Jacques, NJ IS. Fiske g advance representative, spent busy day in starting work for tho Oerform' anee of "'The New York Idea " on May 3l. To accommodate the scenery of the production, all of which Mrs Fiske brings with her, the scenery now in the theater must be removed. New equipment for handling the scenes of "The New York Idea" will be in- stalled. together with increased elee- trieal facilities. A number of new dressing rooms are to be built.
 Mrs. Fiske and her associates will arrive here in a special Pullman car from Fl Paso, where the play the night before. The house in Fl Paso is already sold out, although the engagement is
 
 matinee have been received by the Fl Paso manager, but railroad connections do not permit of Mrs. Fiske's arriving in time.
 There is every indication that the engagement in Globe will also be to an immense audience, which will test the big seating capacity of Dreamland.
 Mrs. Fiske s engagement is the topic of conversation throughout this sec ton. Orders for seats have been re ceived from Clifton, Roosevelt and even more distant points, while the low rate made by the G. V. C. X N. will bring hundreds here from the towns down the valley.
 Never has an Arizona town held such a distinguished group of players as Mrs. Fiske and the members of the Manhattan company. Mrs. Fiske her self is by general consent the greatest of American actresses and the most dis tinguished woman who has ever visited Globe. Not only Is she without su. perior as an actress; she is also one of the greatest of stage managers and per. sonally directs the rehearsals of all her plays. For years she has been noted too, for her fight against the thatrical trust, which controls most of the first class theaters in the United States. She is the only American star of prominence who has never appeared in 8 trust the. ater and her long struggle against the trust is one of the most interesting chapters in American dramatic history.
 Among the many honors which Mrs, Fiske has received is that of being asked to address the students of liar. ward university. Upon only one other woman-Eleanora Duse-has this dis tinction been conferred.
 Sara Bernhardt in a recent interview in Paris characterized Mrs. Fiske as America greatest actress. "Mrs. Fiske,' she said. "I consider unques- tiOnably the first among American dra- matte artists Bernhardt s tribute was telegraphed throughout the country and was echoed by Airs. Fiske's legion of admirers.
 The company which Mrs. Fiske brings with her comprises some of the most noted players on the American stage.

 c. M. Miller of Greenwater. the thriving young city in Death Valley, who was here few days ago. was asked about Srotty and the wonderful stories told about him. He said the man was rather a mysterious character, even to the Death Valley people, al- though he is not half as strange as some of the stories paint him. He said he had had a personal acquaintance with Scotty for several years and that he is n genial sort of chap. People generally respect him as he attends to his own business, and his liberality makes him very agreeable when he is in town, which, however, is not often, even in Death Valley parts As for his source of revenue, Mir. Miller said he knew the facts concerning Seotty s first big requirement of money. That does not account for his later resources and just where he gets his money now is yet to be disclosed. 1t is something though to know where he got part of it and Mir. Miller says he knows that positively. His original find was sort of placer or nugget deposit which was very rich. He ran into q place in the bed of an old stream where sort of an eddy had formed some time in the past, which had gathered the mug gets together. From this deposit he secured lot of gold, but how much Mir. Miller does not know. and only knows that that find is supposed to have been worked out long ago.
 Scott, however, has great many quartz claims in one part or another of the Death Valley region and some of them are supposed to be very rich in gold while others in the copper dis triets are very promising. It is sup posed that he has raised some money from selling or bonding some of these claims, but how many. or where Mir Miller could not say. He says Scott seems to be a marvelously lucky man, for whenever he wants to he goes off in the hills and only stays short time when he returns to the settle ments with ore that cannot hlep but excite mining men when they look at it. While he does not pretend to know, Mir. Miller advances the possible the ory that Scott may have some chart or document secured of old pioneers di recting him to prehistoric workings in one place or another.
 When Scotty is in the valley he works as hard as any other prospeetor, says Mir. Miller, punching his pack outfit along and teading strictly to his own business. Mir. Miller met him on the trail only a few weeks ago when he was last in Death Valley. He was very sociable and pleasant, though of course he did not take the public into his con fidenee concerning his business. Mir Miller says though that he is always welcomed in town, for his rule in Death Valley is the same as when he is star does buy a drink he wants everybody else to drink with him.
