Susan B. Anhony,s First Sweetheart Tells
of Her Days of Short Skirts and High Boots

"HE name Of Susan B. Anthony,
which has become honored
the country over and which
makes, or ought to make, the heart
of every woman in it grateful,
brings to the mind of P. F. Martin,
of Whitesboro, N. Y, quite a diff
ferent train Of thought than 1t
would suggest to most persons. To
him it recalls the time when, long
ago. he took the youthful Susan
to a party and showed her all the
attention that a palpitating heart
and the thought that she was his
first girl would allow.
The shy glances that he cast upon
her at that time were due more to
the Importance Of this first step in
counting than through any premo-
milton of her coming greatness. For
Susan at that time was very much
like the other little girls present.
She was a very pretty child, then
about thirteen years old and was
exceedingly bright and active.

believes himself to have been her
sidering the age of both.
Mr.. Anthony, Susan's father,
moved from Massachusetts, to Nc
Leans Mills, which he named Bat
tenville. He was very successful
in business there and built what was
then considered a very handsome
house of brick, the brick being
manufactured in the village. This
house still remains and has been
kept In good repair. The Mclean
house stands nearly opposite, and
Mr.. Martin and his daughter pay a
yearly visit to this home. which Is
owned by a relative of his.
Guelma, a sister of Susan, mar
ried into this Mclean family and so
became distantly connected with
Mr.. Martins family. She was
named after William PENIS wife,
Guelma, which meant a great deal
to the Anthonys, who were stanch
Quakers.
Mr.. Martin thinks that Susan re-
sembled her father. both in looks
and character. He was an advo-
cate of temperance, and 1t Is likely
that Susan imbibed many of her
ideas along this line from him. Her
mother, who was a very capable
and womanly woman. was exceed
ingly bashful. There were several
children, and on the night of this
party to which Mr.. Martin took
Susan a sister and a brother were
also guests.
When Susan was about fifteen
years old she taught school In
Greenwich. and about this time Mr..
Martin moved away and when he
returned Susan had moved with the
family to Rochester, where she be-

to secure privileges for women, Mr..
Martin lost track of his little sweet
heart, with the exception of what
appeared in the papers concerning
her. But that he remembers her
with friendly feelings is evident
IRON the fact that during this week
which her followers have set aside
as a week of denial to save money
Tor a memorial fund to her, he, too,
has laid aside a contribution for it.

suffrage, and another of SIS, 900. to

THE WAKING UP
 OF WICKENBURG
1t Is Predicted That That Precinct Will Give Cameron a Majority of
 Two to One.

Governor Kibbey returned yesterday morning from Wickenburg, where he addressed the Cameron meeting the night before. Other Phoenicians who were present at the meeting said it was one of the best they had ever attended. The whole populace of Wickenburg seemed to have been wrought up into a Cameron frame of mind and on all sides there were ex- pressions favorable to the republican candidate.
 The enthusiasm for Cameron grew as the meeting proceeded. The sen timent of the community, as well as of the meeting, was expressed in a legend with which the stage was decorated, We Have Been Asleep For Twenty Years" The meaning obviously was that that precinct had for twenty years been giving Hon. Marcus A. Smith majorities without rightly knowing what it was about.
 The meeting was preceded by a big parade in which it appeared that the entire population took part. Af ter the speaking the hall was cleared and the rest of the night until late hour was given over to dancing. It is freely predicted at Wickenburg that the majority for Cameron will be at least two to one.

Hunting Season Opened Yesterday and Many Parties Enjoyed the Sport.

Next in importance in Arizona, to Christmas, Buffalo Bill and Ground Hog Day. comes the opening of the quail season and that happened yes terday. As usual the quail were off their guard and had made no efforts to hide out, being lulled into a sense of security by the law abiding con- duct of the local nimrods for several months past, or even since the last campaign of carnage closed.
 Many parties were afield early and got back carly They had to for the law only allows one man to kill twen- ty-five in one day and the birds were so thick this was a short job. They were also 50 tame the theory of self defense could not hold had the hunt CTS exceeded the limit.

Latham, Tom Horton and Louis Fremeau the chauffer. for in this country hunting is carried on in style and the automobile is the only means of transportation that is strict ly in vogue" The gentlemen did not try to kill all the quail but merely took what the law allowed and got home again by 10:15 a. m.
 Dr. Foss and Dr. John Lentz formed another party of hunters and a third was composed of George Kahrs and Mir. Titus. There were numerous oth CT parties whose names were not learned and for the next week or two quail hunting will be the fad for all who have the time, while the real sports will keep at it all winter.
