12 ii in Romance of Only Camel Driv-. er Under Uncle Sam HIJOLY WAS YOUNG TURK Reminiscences of This MexiT can Border Character i TtcpH-p PhnenJx. June cowboys who performed obsequies over the body of HIpoly as it rest- Vn-nin ed on the bier improvised of a avojo blanket and cactus stems were not the onlv mourners. Two days before a brief press despatch naa announau joly, the government camel driver, was dead. When the despatch fell into the hands of old Indian fighters and prospectors and cattlemen-any of the hardy j.

i tnnir Pratt and Kingman ac-who in the last naif century took Tuesdav. Thursday and men a part in making the great Southwest habitable and productive there was added by those who spoke or thought a tribute of loving remembrance to the strangest character that ever became a part of the United States government Hijoly counted himself a part of tho government, and he was so In fact. Soldiers who fought the Apaches and Utes in the Southwest knew the part that he had acted; cowboys had been his com panions and shared his good or ill for- nmciwntnK his nartners i i )WNitv I in days of luck and aderait. I Hijoly' was a Turk, a native of Asia Slinor. In his youth and young manhood he had another name, but It was never known In Arizona.

The Mexicans gave him a Spanish name, but it didn't seem to fit. so plain Hijoly he was to the last It is rather a title than a name. Once In the old days and in the old life he made a pilgrimage from Khoristan to aiecca, crossing the Syrian desert to visit the tomb of the great prophet. Mo- hammed. In the native tongue the pll- grim who has visited Mecca is distin- cuished bv a title corresponding in sound to Hijoly.

In 1S57 the War Department sent to Arabia for fifty camels. They were to AraDia tor inu uxuivw. oott, be employed as pack animals in the cam- paign against tho Apaches along the Mexican border. An American was despatched to bring home the camels i which agents of the War Department had purchased, but no American could be lound who knew or cared to learn how to care for and manage the camels. A stalwart young Turk, who had as- i Fisted in bringing the camels to the place of embarkation, was asked to accom- pany them to America.

His companions the other camel drivers, were heard to address him as Hijoly, so Hijoly was employed by the agents of the War De- partment. I A contract was made in which he I agreed to the camels to Arizo- na and there take charge of them for the army. He was to receive $100 a month, a i salary which the government agreed to pay him to the last day of his life on the condition that he remained in its employment and did not leave the United States. was no fault of Hijoly's thats the camels proved a failure in the American army. He performed his part, and the government was so well satislied that no question was raised about his continuing on the pay roll of the army.

But the camels were turned adrift on the Arizona 1 desert, all but one of them, a great bull that Hijoly kept for his own use. Mounted on this beast, he travelled i from end to end of Arizona. He crossed the desert and went into the mountains, where he prospected, ami he freighted store for cattlemen and miners. Meantime the camels increased in number, and they became a menace to the cattlemen, liecause they stampeded the cattle and frightened the cowboys' horses and pi-ared the Mexicans until it was feared that every "greaser" of them would bolt act oss the border, never to return. Then the cowboys and prosiectors began a com paign to exterminate the wild camels.

They hunted them down and killed them until only one remained in Tuma and" Maricopa counties, and that one was sliot but few months ago. The cowboys "Jerked" the meat and brought it into Tyson's Wells, where they sold It to "Mike" Welts for "jerked" venison. Mike didn't care and his boarders never knew the difference. Mike Welz was the government keeper of Tyson's Wells during the days of Indian wars, when this oasis in the desert was the rendezvous of the army. He is still there, as great a man as ever.

When he had no further care with the camels, but was a nomad on the desert, Hijoly turned his attention to prospecting. About twenty years or so ago the course of his life was turned into new chattels, when lie discovered a rich mine near Tombstone. He developed it and sold It for $3XO. Then he began to feel the lonliness of his state. Senorita Teresa Rulx.

In Spanish, which he spoke more wag empty. They never did know in fluently than English, he told of his early Arisona what became of Mme. Hijoly. Some think that she remained in Paris. But Hijoly returned.

His occupation "was gone. The government bad no camels to be herded and wanted none, and thi herder had forfeited his contract. Hijoly attempted to capture one of the few camels that were running near Harqua- hala, but never found one to take the place of his bull.

The commander of the army Indorsed a petition for a pension for the camel driver, and it was intended had he lived that a bill should be introduced in Congress asking for a special pension appropriation for Hijoly. Among the few world's goods that he owned those that he treasured most were letters from General Miles. General Law- ton and General Shai'ter.

He served un- 1 der General Crook and from that com- life on the desert, dwelling with peculiar pleasure on the time intervening between the abandonment of the camels by the army and when the made his stake. They evidently were the happy days of his life. He told how the Mexicans were frightened at his big bull camel, which he would ride into the pueblos and drive out the inhabitants. One of his stories was that once he rode up softly behind an old woman who was engaged in preparing vegetables for dinner. The camel reached his long neck down over the woman and began eating from her basket.

"Mio lio! Mlo Dk!" shrieked the wo- man, falling backward and fainting dead away. Another story that he told to pass the fast fleeting minutes of his life was of meeting with a Mexican whose wagon was mired so that four burros could not budge It. Hijoly rode alongside the bur- ros until the small animals saw the camel towering over them. The Mexican shrieked with fright and the nun-os plunged forward, moving the wagon with apparent ease, and they did not stop Steamship Tickets to Ail Points On Earth ON SALE AT We sell throubij uiuwy and steamship tickets to all points in the world.
