TAFT PREPARES
NUMEROUS SPEECHES
Candidate will Spend Some Time
at Brothers House Getting
Ready for His Trip Through
the West Which Begins
This Month.

Cincinnati, o., Sept. 17.-Mrs. Car
rie Nation, without her hatchet, call
ed on Taft today and was admitted
into the spacious hall of the Taft
residence by the judge himself.
You know me?" she demanded
without preliminaries.
The candidate admitted that from
public prints he knew who Mrs. Ma
ton was.
"Well. 1 have come here to have a
discussion with you on the liquor
question" was her next remark.
You will have to excuse me from
entering upon any discussion with
YOU" was Taft's half-smiling reply
whereupon Mrs. Nation began one OF
her characteristic speeches against
the drink evil, not overlooking a con-
demnation of all those who do not
go valiantly to the work of reform
as she believed it should be carried
on. Judge Taft modestly backed
away and Mrs. National seemingly
somewhat awed with what she was
doing backed her way out of the
door and the interview ended.

STEWART CASE
IS EXAGGERATED
SAYS OFFICER
II Is Being Used In Politics
Merely in Order to Swat"

EXILED OFFICER
DOESN'T COMPLAIN

Los Angele- Sept. 17.--That the
|relegation of Col. william a. Stewart
OF the United States artillery Service.
to the lonely army post Gf rort Grant,
Arizona, has been exaggerated into a
matter of political Importance in or
der to swat" the administration, is
commander of the Fifth cavalry, U.
$. A.
Col. Schuyler, stationed at Fort
Huachuca, Ariz., is in Los Angeles
with four troops of his command. en-
route to Camp Atascadero for the Pa
cific coast maneuvers.
For two days previous to his de-
parture from Arizona Col. Stewart
was his guest at Fort Huachuca, and,
except for the fact that he was or
dered to the coast, Col. Schuyler
would have had charge of Col. Stew
arts ninety-mile test ride.
col. Stewart has been represented
as bitter against the administration
for his treatment" said Col. Schuyler
From my observation of him and
talk with him, that is not SO. He, OF
course, attributes his assignment To
Fort Grant as a personal matter. due
to some feeling between him and his
higher officers in the past.
Il know nothing of that matter, as
l never met Col. Stewart until his
arrival in Arizona
IF 1 were in Col. Stetwart's place
would be having the time of my
life" laughed Col. Schuyler.
"Of course he mas no command, but
he has two men TO care for him. He
! has a good house and pleasant sur
roundings, and it is a surprise to ms
that he has not taken his family ou
| there with him.
| Except for the political capita
| that has been made out of the incl
deHt it would never have been heart
Of.
For political reasons his remova
to Fort Grant has been used as {
criticism of the administration, po
sition which Col. Stewart himself doe
not assume.

tration is not to be criticized in thi
matter

WEALTHY GIRL CAN
NOW MARRY CLARKSON
Effort of Her Family TO Have
Church also Declare Marriage
Void. Failed. but Court Grants
DeCree---Her Other Hus-
band Is In England.

New York, Sept. 17.-Miss Helen
Maloney, the daughter of Martin Ma
loney, of Philadelphia. was today
granted a final divorce, annulling her
marriage to Arthur Herbert Osborne
of this city. Miss Maloney married
Osborne at Manaroneck about two
years ago, the ceremony being per-
formed by justice Of the peace.
After the marriage the couple sep
arated, she returning home to her
parents at Philadelphia, where she
remained until she eloped with Sam
uel r. Clarkson to Canada, from
where the couple went to England.
Her father followed and brought his
daughter back, leaving ner husband
in England.
Soon after suit for the annulment
OF the marriage with Osborne was
brought on the ground that it was
not valid. An effort was also made
to have the marriage annulled by
the Catholic church, but though 1t
was carried to the pope the church
refused to annul the marriage.
A motion to make final the inter-
locutory decree granted in this suit
four months ago was granted by de-
fault today. 1t leaves Miss Maioney
free to marry Clarkson or anyone else
should she care to do so.

THROUGH DESERT FOR
MODERN FAUST

Story of Rich Ledge Given

HIS FRIENDS FIND
LEDGE OF RICH ORE

San Bernardino, Sept. ia mod
desert, or rather he nas been lost,
for during the past two or three days
searching parties have been hunting
the desert over for him without sue
cess, and it is now feared that he
has perished. This latter-day man
who has held communion with his Sa-
tanic majesty is Horace Latimer, one
of the original locators of the Green
water mines. He sold his claims for
a big price and proceeded to live
high. Weeks were spent in a de-
bauched condition, and when he fl
nally came back to his senses he was
in Seattle mission.
He became converted by the teach
ings he received there and recently
came back to Greenwater and en-
gagged as a miner. A few days ago
he told his friends weird tale of a
communicative he had had with the
devil during which the latter revealed
to him the location of wonderfully
rich ledge which would be his IL he
would cut loose from the straight and
a
step down the primrose way. He
claimed that he refused the offer and
would remain true to the faith. Again
he was visited by the Evil One, and
feeling the lust for wealth tempting
him he broke away and ran out into
the desert and has not since been
found. although the miners have been
diligently searching for him ever
since.
But now comes the really strange
part Of the story, Latimer had de-
scribed the location of the gorge
where the rich ledge was to be found
and other prospectors. who were moi
so much afraid of hobnobbing with
anyone, even the devil, If he knew
where there is a rich lead of gold
went to the place and there found the
ledge just as described. II assay:
In free gold as high as S95 per ton
and has been traced for over 2,0O(
yards by the outcroppings. 1t hai
been located for its entire length. The
miners are of the opinion that Lati
mer really found the ledge and thu
thoughts of his second streak of goot
fortune were TOO much for his weak
aned brain, ard that the second edi
tion of Faust told by him was the
result.
