| Third Trial EOr Murder.

A remarkable trial is in progress at
Tacoma, at the present term of court.
The title OF the case is the Territory Of
Washington VS.. William NJ. White,
charged with murder in the first de
gree. William NJ. White, the dc end
ant, and James Mcmillan, the man lie
is charged with having murdered
lived at Connell's prairie, on the
Puyallup river, about % miles distant
from Tacoma. Mcmillan owned n
piece Of property On which White had
a mortgage. The later forevlosed the
mortgage and took po-si ssion of the
premises. 1t Is alleged that McMillin
went on TO the property for the pur-
pose Of cutting hay and that White
intercepted HIM and an alteration en-
sued. Mcmillan, so it is reported,
went onto the property armed with a
rifle and revolver, and White was pre-
pared to defend himself with a re-
volver. During the quarrel which fol
lowed the two men used high words,
and both resortcd to thtir weapons.
At former trial witnesses were pr
duced who testified in direct contra
diction to each other as to who fired
the first shot. At any late Mcmillan
received an almost Immediately fatal
wound. This was on the 18th OF
July, 1885. White was arrested, in
dicted by the grand jury, and in No
vember, 1885, was tried. The jury
disagreed, and second trial WAS had
the Both of June, 1856. On the Sd
of July, three days later, the jury
found White guilty Of murder in the
second degree, and he WAS sentenced
to ten years in the penitentiary He
was taken to that institution and
served about year of his sentence.
Meantime, the case was appealed to
the Supreme Court, and the result was
an order for new trial. White was
then released on $4,000 bail, and has
had his liberty for about fourteen
months. After the case WIS sent back
for new trial the Indictment against
White was squashed on the ground
that women had sat an the grand jury
that indicted him. Last July White
was indicted again, and he is now on
trial on that indictment.

"This much l will tell you," said Mr..
Convey, Mr.. Sohns and myself had an
interview with Col. Ewing, of the
Seattle Southern railroad. That gen

"Ohl I don't know, Mrs. Fairlie," said
Tommy, trying not to look as if his jaw
was dropping perceptibly, yet with an I'M
comfortable sort Of feeling that the lady,
who was quite q small social celebrity in
her way in Blankhampton, was right in
what she said, there must be plenty Of
good people round about"
my dear boy, none," returned Mrs.
Fairlie, with an emphasis which killed
the last remnant Of jauntiness left in him.
'Not a soul who will take the very
smallest notice Of you"
'Take the smallest notice Of mel"
echoed Tommy, feeling as If an earth.

ridly rich that they only count incomes by
millions and daughters dots by hundreds

they only regard as useful in having got
together fine country places for them to
buy; and as Cor any one Of them ever ask.
ing You to dnner-why, they would
almost as soon ask their sweep. Obi my
dear child, l assure you, in going to
Walmsbury you'll find yourself in no bed
"But. Mrs. Fairlie," said Tommy, when
he could get his breath SO - to speak,
"haye You ever been to Walmsburyf'
Never" returned the lady. promptly
"Then how do you know all thisf' he
inquired, triumphantly.
From the unfortunate men who have
been quartered there" she replied imme-
diately, and Tommy was crushed forth
with.
But Mrs. Fairlie was only the first Of
many who condoled with him on the mis-.
fortune Of being sent to place so un-
couth. 90 unattractive in every way as
Walmsbury. Thus the young Alexander's
thoughts and ideas underwent complete
revolution. and by the time half the week
the last week in Blankhampton-was
over, his indignation and disgust at his
fate had positively reached their furthest
limits. And then when they got to the
hated place, and he found himself in his
own miserable, deserted quarters, he BE-
came simply abject. When he saw tho
dirty. unattractive streets, the pokey
little shops. the Ill looking men and wo-
men and tho utter absence Of any and
every sort Of rank and fashion, he fell
into settled misery Of regret.
For the first time since he had Joined
his regiment Tommy regretted sincerely
that he had not. when he had the chance,
made himself more popular with his
brother officers than he had done For he
found Walmsbury no better that Q prison,

known that Beautiful Jim's whole heart
and mind was wrapped up in his own sis
teri If he had only known that to him.
he-Tommy-was simply nothing but an
impudent young cub whose only claim to
interest. or even notice, lay in the fact he
was the brother of that insignificant and
not -to-be-counted creature, Nancy Earle
well, it would have helped to take down
the young gentleman's idea Of his own
greatness and his own importance mar
velously.
Unfortunately, however, Jim had not.
during. all those months, the ghost of a
chance of furthering his position with
Nancy, for almost Immediately after
Tommy joined the regiment Mr. Earle
was seized with q somewhat severe at
tack of bronchitis. and by the orders of
his medical advisers was on the very first
opportunity ordered off to the sunny
shores of the Mediterranean, there to stay
until the very last east wind Of our I'M
genial spring time should have taken its
departure from his native shores.
1t had been bitter blow to him, but it
was useless to fight against fate. and
though he tried hard for foreign leave,
he was, owing to various rumors of dis
turbance floating about the country at
the time, unable to get it.
Just at first he was rather elated at the
prospect of change. There was some
thing jaunty and soldierly about march
ing out, colors flying, band playing, and
dozen broken hearts behind them, and
for few hours Tommy went airly round
announcing that they were off to Walms-
bury next woek, with fresh fields and
pastures new" air about him that was ir-
resistibly funny to those of his brother
officers who knew what manner of place
Walmsbury really was.
But the citation of this young Alexander,
longing for more worlds to conquer, did
not last long From 1.-The fellows" he
learned nothing; indeed. for any inform
alton he would have had from them he
would have remained in the ignorance
which is bliss, doubly so in this case,
until he reached Walmsbury itself; but
in Blankhampton it was different.
"Going to Walmsbury," cried one lady
to whom he told his news with very
girl leave behind me" sort of air. "Oh,
you poor dear boy, what shame! Why,
you'll be buried alive in Walmsbury
There's nothing to do and nowhere to 60,
and not soul in the place that you can
possibly know. No society whatever."
