LEPER CANNOT BE DEPORTED

Governor May Pardon Prisoner That
He May Care for Sister.
The euse of General D. IC. Ward
well, a veteran of the Mexican and
civil witrs, and Ills wife, who Is a
leper, Is In a fair way of being dis
posed of by the Arizona olllclals
und It Is possible that the devotion
of the husband will prevail und he
will be pormltted to remain by his
aflllcted wife. It U proposed to Iso
late the couplo near Tombstone and
keep them under care and trentmont
of the county olllclals, The fact that
the form of leprosy from which the
woman Is suffering la not communi
cated by association or contact makes
the solution of the problem easy.
The federal court was appealed to
by the local officials, but It has re
plied to the board of supervisors that
there Is no law under which the de
portation of Mrs. Wardwell to the
leper colony of Moloknl can be ef
fected, thus leaving the territorial
government to Its own resources.
Mrs. Wardwell has a brother serv
ing a ten-year sentence in the Yuma
penitentiary for murder and Governor
Klbbey has been petitioned to grant
him a pardon under condition that he
take care of his sister.
In addition to being a leper, Mrs.
Wardwell's mind Is affected nnd she
Is kept chained to her bed to prevent
a recurrence of her escape of some
days ago. Mr. Wardwell, who Is
eighty-six years of age, Is suffering
from a cancer. This adds to the
pathos of the rase.

THOUGHTS
WALDO PONDRAY WARREN
ALL WORK A SCHOOL
THE man who gets the most out of life is the man who
lives to learn. An old man, walking by the banks of a
river, said to his grandson: "See this river, my child.
It has a different interest for every one of us. That man yon
der thinks of it merely as a place to fish. The boys down
there think of It as a swimming pool. The man who owns
the sawmill considers It a part of his workshop. Those young
people In the launch think of It as a pleasure stream. The
farmer finds that it enriches his fields. The cows come down
to drink. The old settlers tell us of a battle that was fought
near the bend. And you and I find tt a many-sided object
lessen. For you are soon to go out into the world, and you
will find life like this river. You will observe that every man
thinks of it from his own standpoint. Some are idlers along
the banks waiting for chance to bring them what they want;
some row up stream and some float down; some find refresh
ment, some only pleasure; some see only the hard work; and
some are locking back at the past, thinking of the battles that
have been fought in years gone by. But you and i will find It
a great object lesson a school where all the activities of men
and women become lessons, and where progress In wisdom
and goodness Is the chief motive In all that we do."
