The great unwritten romance of American history is the story of the pioneers of Arizona. The civilized modern state of 1920 is a 100 years ahead in environment of the wild, raw, Apache ridden outlaw infested, noun tain scared desert of 1880.
 Into it, inspired by the derring- do of the Anglo Saxon, joining hands with a few children of the Latin civiliza- ton, there came in the 70s and sos a band of fearless, determined, adventur- ous men whose exploits for 20 years are a story of recklessness, dare devil try, courage and persistence, the like of which is not in the roll of things of the past on the American conti- nent.
 Republics may be ungrateful. Arizona is not. To the dry dust historical society idea Arizona with a warmer spirit than most maintains, has done something concrete to show her grati- tude for those who blazed the trail who fought the Apaches, who con quered the outlaws and who braved the desert and pointed out it's riches. Arizona in a modern day has req Iized that of the few thousand brave men and women who lighted the torch and kept it blazing, not all could find bonanzas, not all would show the forti- tude and keenness in their personal concerns that they did in their devo-

is shown most conclusively. The pio- aeer loved his good coffee next only to his horse. Cheap coffee found in the home has been done away with and the best on the market is given them The table is set as well as any modern home, and substantial well cooked dishes are the rule.
 They have spacious reading room, the newspapers of the day are keenly and closely read, public affairs in their forum are as hotly discussed as any where in the country.
 The daddy" of the crowd is Mc- Ginley. a miner and prospector of 92 who did his ten miles the other day. In fact the largest colony is that ot miners and prospectors who delved but did not find or at any rate did not cling to the metal that they found.
 There are men among them who fought well nigh single handed, whole bands of Apaches who curbed and state. who trailed and tramped tha desert in loneliness for weeks and months at @ time. who lived through 40 and 50 years of hardship during the creation of a state.
 Their present accommodations are comfortable but not elaborate Thera is now available a $65,000 appropri1 tion for the erection of an additiona dormitory so that the present capacity of the home will be doubled from Y5 to 150, this because the present accom- modations are inadequate and many sa deserving pioneer needs must be turned away.
 A few changes are now being made Mr Shea is completing a double story veranda on the women's quarters which will give them a view of the city Of Prescott and a sweep of many miles to the east. The porches and lobby have been redecorated recently and the main reception room has been refpr- nished throughout.
 The home is a perfectly modern one with every comfort, and the grounds are large and ample for recreation. As the generation of pioneers which is fast passing out of the ken of the modern Arizonan, it is a source of pride to grateful people that all the state is contributing and will continue to contribute to paying a small share of the debt which Arizona owes to those who were the out-posts of Americanism in the great southwestern desert

URGES WESTERVM MAN
 FOR INTERIOR DEPT.

Governor Louis F. Hart of Wishing ton asuming that Senator Harding will be the next president, has sent an idential telegram to the governors of the western reclamation states, urg- ing them to address Senator Harding and urge upon him the matter of ap- pointing for secretary of the interior a western man, familiar with the needs of the west and particularly the reclamation problem.
 It should be stated that the tele- grams of Governor Hart are sent only to the Republican governors of the western reclamation st>tes, for though the Democratic governors have the same interest in the appointment of a western man and one familiar with the subject of reclamation, they, per . haps- cannot yet be brought to assume that Senator Harding will be elected.

PROXY WEDDING LEADS
 TO CONJUGAL CoNI%1CT

Geneva, Illinois, Nov. 15.-The proxy wedding of Elida Piza, daughter of Emil Piza wealthy planter of San Jose, Cos ta Rica. and Herbert P. Crane, million aire son of the late Richard T. Crane the iron master, was described in court here today by MT Piza.
 The Costa Rican coffee planter came here from his home in Central America to answer charges contained in his son in-law's cross complaint to Mrs. Cranes suit for separate maintenance.
 The 60-year-old millionaire posed as a man of so when he met the youthful Costa Rican belle four years ago, Mrs Cranes father said. Mir. Crane, he said, voluntarily offered a marriage settle ment when the details of the proxy we'd ding were arranged, but the promise, he added, was never carried out.
 MT. PiZa was questioned by his daugh- ter's attorney regarding his acquaintance with the late Gaby Deslys, the Parisian dancer. In his cross petition MT. Crane declared he was forced to intercede and effect a monetary settlement with the dancer on behalf of his father-in-law. MT. Piza denied the claim and said his acquaintance with her was only casual.
 The Cranes, according to the testf- mony, have occupied separate quarters in MT Cranes Wild Rose farm here for more than two years with locked and barred doors between them. Mrs Crane is. the mother of two-year-old son whom the father, it was testified. had never seen until they met in court a few days ago.
