SHE COURTED OTRER GIRLS. | A Real Donna Juana and Her Strange Careor. CAPTURED THE MINER'S HEART, How a Western Lady Railroad Con dnctor Got a Rich Husband— Masqueraded as an Heiress— A Vagneros Bride Little Romances. An arrest on suspicion en Saturday fias brought out a strunge story ol young woman's strange adventu while masquerading in male attire,says an Atlanta special to the New York Sun. Her name is Carrie Davis, and she belongs in Columbus, O. She is nineteen years old and prett She grow tired of home life and on Septem- ber 19, she started out with 8350 in her pocket to the world. Since that time, in her masculine disguise, she has won the hearts of no less than four young women and has promised to marry cach of them. She vasited New York first and orr in Atlanta on September 23, spending her first night atthe Grant house, Going out next day she found a young lady sho had known 1n the west, and thon went down to Mrs. Wright's, Whent streot, where she sccured lodging under the name of Clarence Davis, From there begins astrange romance, On September 24, Miss Maggie Preder- gast sccured lodging at Mrs, Wright's saying that Clarence was a cousin of hers,and that they had known each other for a long while. She stated that she cume from Now York. In nfew daysthe young lady stated that she and Clarence were engaged to be murried, but that Mrs. Davis ob- jected to the match, and that was why “they came south.y “Mister” Davis appeared to assume the roleof a masher very naturally, and was very polite to the ladies. Large bouquets of costly flowers sent to him were of every day occurrence, and a fow days agohe went to Mrs, V and nsked her to reserve two yooms for his use, that he was going to ma young lady who lived at the Kimball nouse in two weeks. After his arrest yesterday afternoon a large bouquet, was sent to him with a card marked “IFrom Lilhe.” This proved to be his latest fiance. Her name is Miss Florence Lillian Adams, ‘When she wus brought to the station Youse she told the whole story. Clarence had made love to her a couple of weeks ago, when he and some young men compinions called at.her home. Clarence ordered a bottle of wine, and over it the two became very sweet. An cngagement resulted, and Clarence claimed that he was going to marry her and they would go to Wash- ington, where he would secure a good position. “Mr.” Davis claimed also to have been engaged to a young lady in Evans- ville, Ind., making the .fourth alleged engagement on his hands. *‘Mr.” Davis’s first love was seen y day afternoon, and she told a very straight- forward story, saying that she had worked with Miss Carrie Davis in a store in Columbus six or eight years ago, and that they became quite at- tached to each other. She left and went to New York, ana after she ar- rived there Miss Davis wrote to her, stating that she was a man and intended to wear men’s clothes, and that she was coming to New York to see her. BShe asserts, 1n perfect good faith, that she was deluded into belicving that Miss Davis was @ man, and that was why she received her attentions. She appeurs to be an honest, business-like young lady, and innocent of any inten- tion to do wrong. Miss Davis spent the night up stairs at the station house, and a telegram was received from her mother, asking thut she return to her home at once and , 8l would be forgive seo 09 *Talk about woman suffrage,” said a veteran railroad conductor to a Mem- phis Almcnl reporter, “I can relate to you a phase of woman that few people ave seen in this country. “A few days ago I was going out from Denver, Colo., on the Denver & Rio Grande railroad, when I was thrown in company with a -lady who opened my oyes. conductor.as I was. She was a pe- tite brunette, who had the vim and manner of what I would term a manly woman. Not impulsive and.given to errutic spells, but purely a woman given by nature to manhood’s ways. “This lady was a conductor on a ‘branch train tapving our line, and she was the first female I ever knew acting in that capacity, *‘But you must not think that she was at all slow in meeting all demands, for while she had her range and could go just so far, to that extent she did her work superbly. She collected fares and punched tickets like a man, but when it came to putting sowe fellow off because of his failure to comply with the re- quirements of the rul?roud company, it was her custom to call upon & man to do the work. The brakeman on the train was usually present to do her com- mands, but I have known cases where passengers were called on to put other pussengers off the train, “I will relute a singular occurrence » that took place at a certain point in the northwest, The lady conductor had charge of the train, and a burly, gruff passenger from Iowa was on board. He ad nota cent to pay his fare to her knowledge, and when the ticket col- lector came along a climax occurred. She demanded his fare, ***I haven’t got it to give you,” he d. S Then {ou must get off,’ shie replied emphatically, At the next station?’ Y es? ** “Then have a seat,’ said he, and she sat down by his side. She first passed her lynx eye about, and seeing no man around, resolved to say no more. ‘*At the next station the mountaineer quite \luaxpoewdl{‘ arose, reached into his kets, paid his fare, and, givin, the my n serap ol parchment ongwhicfi was inseribed his name, stood on the platform and gazed wistfully on the train as it pulled out. *I don’t know what transpired during the interim, but that lady is no longera conductor on any train, She is mar- ried, and the mountaineer who was on the train is her husband. He iswealthy in mining interests, having many shafts in constant operation, That's my idea woman's suffrage. The theory be- fore the country now his been inoti- #ated and is now being agitated by a class of the feminiue sex who have been, to a greater or less extent, ex- cluded from a proper uuderstanaing of life’s obligations, who have been given oue opportunity when we find them led. This woman 'o-dny is mny- thing but a suffrage advocate,” r There was a smile upon the face of nature at 1 o'clock Saturday noon, said swile being reproduced upon the fea- ~ tures of uwmbers of custom house and THE castle garden officials, says the Now York World, Used as they are to scenes of passionate love and fleeing lovers, there was still amusement loft for thom in the teial trip that has just been made by Miss Le Hunt, of County Wexford, Ireland, and Stephen Bryan of tho same place. With these two peo- ple, known to the.world below decks for one brief week as Mr. und Mrs. John Burns, the old, old story was something out of the ordinary, for 1t w, i as the nose on Mary's face th not the woman, but the trusting man who had loved not wisely but toc 1 On Mond reachea Nov Saturday both turned their on our inhospitable shores and again for the Emerald Isle, Both went. but not together.

In their brief three weeks of love there will be something like two weeks of sea sickness, two days of life at Castle gar- den and two days of disinfection and hot baths at Ward’s Island. And to crown all this, thére will be the disturbing thought that the only available man in all County Wexford was the man she borrowed and he got away Early in August, Alice Grace Wilson, aged nineteen, daughter of Captain Wilson, who comwmands a fishboat, of BEast Tawas, Mich., took it into her very shrewd amd pretty head to see something of the world, says a Cleve- land dispateh. She started the story that somebody had left her a fortune of a million, and actually made the town people believe it, including her own father. They loaned her 3400 to prose- cute her claims. She went to Bast Saginaw, laid in a fine wardrobe, largely on the strength of her winsome ways and expected wealth, and from there to Detroit, where she put upat the best hotel. Here her fortune ex- panded to $2,000,000, und attracted the attention of Albert B. Crenshaw, of this city, aged thirty, He confided to M Wilson that he, too, was pos- sessed of enormous wealth, be cashed, and they were ms September 7. She came at once to Uleveland, and on representatious of Mrs. Crenshaw’s great woalth, secured fine apartments at the Hollenden and the best the house atforded, giving Cap- tain Wilson’s me as reference. In response to an inquiry the captain re- plied: “God bless the girl; give her all she wants,” “Phey did wine, carriages, cash from the till, everything she asked. On Tuesday Mrs,” Crenshaw ascertained that her husband was a bigamist, hav- ing married her three weeks before getting a divorce from No. 1. She caused his arrest and settled on the busis of asecond marviage. The hotel people presented a bill of $600 and found that neither of the pair had or was worth a dollar. Captivated as was everybody else, by her beauty and queenly dignity, they paid the fare of herself and maid to East Tawas, gave her $10 for expenses and sent her to the train in a handsome carriage. They say 1t was worth the money to play the partshe did. But they sent Crenshaw, whois a no account fellow, to jail. There isupon the Yakema (Wash.) reservation a family of half breeds known ns the Olneys. A romance 1s associuted with the name. The white father of the Olneys died recently, but to the last shunned his own race. He wasof ‘a highly respectable Rhode Island family and a graduate of Yale. About the time he completed his studies the discovery of gold in Califoraia oc- curred. Oluey joined the Argonauts of ’49 and came west toseek his fortune. He left behind nim his sweetheprt to whom he was to be married as soon as he fonnd the fortune and returned. The girl grew weary of waiting asaany others of her sex have done. About a yeoar after he reached the coust Olney received a letter announcing the mar- riage of his betvrothed. He never got over the blow. Drifting about he lo- cated in Oregon, and was made sheriff of ‘Waseo county. In those days there was usually excitement enough in the duties of sheriff to banish the memories of the past. During his reign he made many warm personal friends, but after awhile Onley got tived of hunting down criminals, He gave up his oflice, crossed the Columbia river and became a member of the Yakema tribe. His adoption was in_good faith on his part, for he took an_Indian wife and raised a family, As his children grew up ho educated them with care, and when he died he left them well provided for. The Onleys are influen- tial in the tribe, and they exercise that influence for good. Last Sunday a young vaguero by the name of Billy Wilkes ’loped off with one of Visalia’s fair damsels, Miss Ivy Francis, and brought her down here to avoid the “parental storm, says the Lemoore, O., Leader. Ttseoms that the old follcs were not inelined to favor the ardent young vaquero’s suit for their daughter’s heart and hand, and put a quietus on his attentions to her a short time ago.

Nance Williams was not beautiful, in the ordinary sense of the word. She was sunburned and {reckled, and her nose had too much the suggestion of a snub to be an ornament. But she had fine eyes—not large, but small, expres- sive, and fringed with heavy black lashes. She wasa strong-limbed, well- developed, and hearty girl of twenty- two, or thereabouts, atv the time of this story, and was known to the Sky community as a fearless woman, and no less peculiar than brave. Peculiar, indeed! She had no rela- tives that any one knew of, and was all aione way out in that western country, and for a woman to be alone in Dakota in ’82-3, and especially “holding down a claim” mles from any one, presented a spectadle of self-sacrifice and daring rarvely exhibited by the gentler sex. But Nance wazs equal to the emer- ency. If she had a heart to dare, she ad an arm all-sufficient for her pro- tection. She could handle a gun with the skill and ease of a professional ranger, and had more than once dem- onstrated her superb marksmanship. I have seen her break the wildest of bronchos to the suddle, and by a score of similar acts proclaim herself the mistress of the situation. Yet, with all her masculine qualities, she was feminine to the greatest de- n gome of the sweetest virtues of sox. She was ready-witted, bright and tender-hearted, and whenever she came into the store to trade it was a treat for me to draw her out in conver- sation. She was usually very reserved, but from time to time 1 gleaned a fow facts concerning her early life. She was born in California. There was a tinge of Indian blood in her mother’s veins and her father was a miner—a ‘forty-niner.” Her whole life had been thrown in the most rugged sur- roundings, and I could not but wonder how she had grown up iuto her scathe- less womankood. She was a diamond in the rough---I could see that and I gloried in it, but how she supported herself and why she buried herself away out in that lonely region afar from womanhood and civilization were mysteries to usall, ‘Along in the summer of '83 a young fellow from the east came to Skytown and settled down among us. He was a pale, sickly looking individual, slightly built, had blue eyes, curly ycllow hair and wore goggles. He was very refi in his language and dress and carries himself with such a scholarly air that he was immediately christened *‘Pro, fessor.” His father, he told me, had sent him west for his health. He had come to Dakota with the avowed inten- tion of Poughing it, and wanted me to advise him the proper method for see- ing the greatest amount of pioneer life in the shortest possible time, I advised him to tuke upa claim, roll up s sleeves and do as we Dakotans did. He followed my advice to the letter, Iin- trodueed him to Charley Atwood and he purchased of him the relinguishment of a fine quarter of ground,remodeled the shack a little to suithis convenience and started in to experience Dakota life, In some manner he becams ac- quainted with Nance Williams and they became steadfast friends. I knew their riendship was warm, but did not dream t was 80 strong as after events proved. One night, about 8 or 9 o'clock, Naunce Williams came into the store. She did not show much excitement, but her eyes blazed in a maoner that evidenced her feelings. She ap- proached me and said in a low tone: “I'd like ter speak with you, Mr. Barlow.” Sne looked sideways at two or three loafers in the store, and I knew she de- sired to see me privately. I was some- what surprised, but conducted her to my little cubby-hole of an office. “What do you uqume Rice Fidlding, Tom Jenkins an’ all that gang are goin' ter do to-night?” Her voice shook with “T cannot imagine, said I, in a tone of alarm, “They’re over at Sprulrler‘a plottin’ 1o beat the professor out of his clam!” “You don’t tell me!” “I do, though. You see, the pro- fessor is out o' town, an’ the gang knows it, g0 they’re goin’ to try an’ steal his place.” “‘But they can't—-." *They say they can, They suy they’ll tey iy an’ give the tel oot & big sion, Williams,” SUNDAY, soare, anyway.

It's time W W', You mark my words Mr. Barlow, the professor’s claim is safe— Nance Willinms says s0.” She rushed out of the store and away into the night. , A few minutes after a horse came past at lightning speed with Mad-Cap Nanes crouching low in the saddle and speeding awny on her hair- brained mission. Shouts and yells came from Span- and not long after Nance had a drunken rabble rode by in the direction she had taken, I felt certain something of a seri nature was threatened, so as soon as [ could leave the store, I saddled my horse and fol- lowed. ) The moon had come out of the purple sky overhead. In her light the land- sctpe was brought out with awtling distinctness, for Dakota moons are not- ed for their intense brilliancy. Tom Jenkins' gang had o half hour the start of me and I put my horse to the run in ovder that Tinight be on hand with as little delay as possible. As my horse clattered over the bridge that spanned )estom, I heard a sucoession of le shots from the di ion of the prof claim, “My God,” I cried, killed!” and I lashed greater specd. 1t had never occurred to me that I would be helpless in an encounter with the drunken rabble. T had thought of nothing but getting upon the gronnd in the quickest possible time, for 1t was more than probable that Nance Will- inms would be alone at the merey of the crowd. As I drew nearer and nearer my destination I heard cries from time to time, and my knees were all a-trem- ble with excitement and apprehension. When L came_close to the professor’s claim shanty, however. I realized that Nance Williams was in no immediate danger, for the men, some ten or twelve io number, stood counseling together. r loud talk I gleaned that th had met with a disappointment—they had thought that the professor was in Jimtown, while they had found him in the shuck, on hand fo protect his prop- us ‘the girl will be my horse to the What’s the matter, boys? quired, springing from my horse. *It’s Barlow,” said Tom Jenkins to his assoclu v de- lighted voice. Then,advancing toward “*What do you want, lke play, romptly; e you fellows heve for?” o't ‘nothin’ to you. You go back to town and leave us alone While 1 harranguing Tom Jenlk- ins, Rice Fielding, his partner, tried to steal up to the door of the house, He had gone barely half way, however. when a rifle was throst through a partly open window and fired in his di- rection. The bullet whistled uncom- fortably near him,and Rice retreated with more haste than gracefulness. *No use, Rice,” said Tom Jenkins: “the fellow means busin There’s only one way to get at him, an’ that’s to burn him oyt.’” “Look here.”. I cried excitedly; “have you mev any idea of the crime you are perpetrating. This out- rage—" There were: several derisive yells from the crowd, and I could sce they were too much bent upon mischicf to be ) mo. ou know as well as°T do that Charley Atwood hadn’t no right to jump that claim in the first place. That there place belongs to me an’ Tom. an’ the rest of the fellers are goin’ to heip me get 1t back,s0 you just keep mum an’ get out o’ the way.” Ah, that was the idea! It wasa fact the quarter had originally been filed on by Rice Ilielding, but he never went near it and made no pretension of liv- ing up to the law, consequently 1t be- calne jumpable, and Charley Atwood had taken advantage of this fact. All the while Atwood held the place, Field- ing had made no move to got it back, but now that the professor had bought it a fancied wrong rankled in Fielding’s breast. In this view the case 1 thought best not to tell the men they were battling againsta woman. The chances were they would consider her more easily imposed upon than the professor and, pushing to greuter extremities, the affair might be made infinitely worse. I decided to draw one side and watch the affair passively, and then, when it reached a climax, I would do my utmost to protect Nunce Williams, Going to the rear of the house where there was no windows or doors through which a rifle could be fired, prepn tions were made to burn the building. A billet of wood wus suturated with the oil of a lantern oue of the men had brought, and, highting this torch and taking au avmful of siraw, Rice Pield- ing approuched to burn the professor’s shack. Before he could put his plan into operation, however, a fizure ap- peared on the roof of the house. Stand- ing aloft, stern and undaunted, upon the flat voof, Nance Williams covered Rice Fielding with her rifle, “Not another step,” she cried warn- ingly, “*not another inch or youwre a dead man!” Good God!” [yelled Ficlding, “it's ance!” There she stood, erect as a statue—a target fora dozen guns!” **Nance Williams, I cried, “for God’s sake come down.” “If they take the professor’s claim they walk over m{ dead body ter get it. ?vhug are you goin’ to do, Rice Field- ng?” El‘on‘h shoot, boys. your gun—U'll quit. don’t stand there.” “I'll stand here till every last one o’ you gitsucrost the Pipestem, Now,you fellers move or I'll shoot anyhow. Well, they “‘moved,”” und I never saw such a dismayed lot of men ns mounted their horses and road toward Skytown. Thcil were not too much inebriated to realize that twelve men 1ad made war on one woman and they went back cons- cious of defeat.’ But what siled Fielding? A the very climax of his expeaition he had weakened. What caused it? Nance Wiliiams happened 1o be in the store two or three ‘yl aiter, and I asked Nance, put up In heaven’s name er, “Huh!” said she conl.empmusly. “he wants me ter marry him, an’ I'd see him dead an’ buried afore I'd stoop so low as that, after what he tried to do to NOVEMBER 17, PAGES. 50 1889.-~TWENTY the professor.” She paused a moment, and T saw a tear steal down her cheek. “I never liked but one feller in r Mr. ow, an’ Bill—he d tell you 'bout him some time. bye.
