DESERTER GIVES
UP TO POLICEMAN
Was Tired and Hungry and
Could Find No
Work.

Thursday night as policeman Charles
Henderson was busily engaged pro-
tecting the street cars from being run
over by pedestrians, he was approached
by a. man who stated to the policeman
that he was a ldeserter from Fort Bliss
and wanted TO surrender Policeman
Henderson thought the man was trying
to joke him, especially as Fort Bliss
was such a short distance away, but
the man insisted that his story was
true and wanted the officer to ar
rest him. with the result that Hender-
son took him in charge.
Friday morning after providing the
socalled deserter with a good, hearty
meal and = supply Of tobacco. the po-
liceman took MS man to the fort There
he found that the exsoldier was telling
a true story, being on the army register
as Harry L. Forbes, a private Of COM
pany H, Twenty-third infantry, who
deserted in the early part Of April
Forbes assigns his reason for sur
rendering that he has been down in
Mexico and could obtain nothing TO
do and had not had good meal for
some time.

Paris, France, July 22.-Mme. Emma
Eames and Emilio DeGogorza, both ia
nous singers, who were married in the
mayors office in Paris, eliminated an
interesting romance. The attorney gem
eral of France gave them a special dis
pensation from the law requiring
banns to be posted at the mayors Of
flee ten days before the ceremony.
Still more unusual the pope granted
them a special dispensation permitting
Nine Eames, a protestant, to be mar
ried in Roman Catholic church. So
anxious was Nine. Eames to comply
with religious forms that the civil
ceremony was followed by a religious
ceremony on Thursday, July 10, in
Paris. The couple went to Germany for
a months honeymoon. and then both
will begin concert tour.

No DANGER Of
REVOLT IN
SPAIN
The People Do Little But
Talk-Action Not Their
Accomplishment.
CANALEJAS PROVES
VERY WEAK PREMIER

Madrid, Spain, July 22-"Talk-mere
talk" is the reply when the average
cynical man of Madrid is asked what
will result from the present condition
of affairs. A revolution? Oh, perhaps
in so years, but after a revolution
what? The people-do little but talk and
the leaders do nothing but get them
selves elected to office or put in the
way Of graft. This is the spirit in
which reply is often made The career
of senior Canalejas, the democratic pre-
mier, and head of the present Spanish
government, is sometimes cited as
showing how little is to be expected
from the most promising reform lead
ers. Canalejas was hot for reform un-
til he became powerful as an office
holder. He then cooled considera bly,.
Once he was premier, say the cynics,
he changed from his anti-clerical posi-
ton and was thenceforward hand-in-
glove with the Jesuits. This is harsh
eurbstone criticism But the facts of
senior Canalejas's career as they are
the mans attitude to warrant some
objection to him as a leader.
One Time Republican.
Senior Canalejas was for a revolution
and a republic in the days of his ear
Hest political activity. Later he came
to the front as one of the organizers
of radical monarchist party. He first
appeared in office as prime minister's
secretary under a democratic ministry
2S years ago. Under premier Sagasta,
he was the holder of a portfolio, the
equivalent of the bureau of agricu1-
ture, education, public works and
trade, as a Liberal.
When Canalejas returned to politics
in 1899 after period of retirement
the country was in a difficult situa-
ton. The war with the United States
had increased the national debt to a
point at which strict economies were
necessary and the immigration Of
large number of monks and nuns into
Spain had created a good deal of inter
nal discord. The Conservatives had al
lowed the monastic orders to do as
they pleased and the supreme power

OILERS QUICK WIT
SAVES EIGHTEEN MEN

Globe, Ariz.. July 22.-Archie Olsen,
an oiler employed at the o. D. mine,
averted an accident few days ago
by his quick thinking. The shaft ele-
vator in the mine shaft was carrying
IS men to the various levels, when
Suddenly the spring grip on the lever
dropped across the dogs and blocked
the operation of the elevator brakes
The car with the Is men plunged
down over 500 feet. The car went
down with such momentum as to Gre
ate suction which threatened to
draw the men into the different levels
as they passed them. However, Olsen,
by quick action with a crowbar pried
the lever loose so as to allow the en-
gineer to apply the brakes. No one on
the elevator was injured
