knowingly out of his good eye, "did you
ever try to have fun with a newspaper
man ?"
81 never did, replied Fred with yawn.
"Well, take my advice and don't try it.
My leaving the east was caused by getting
too free with pencil driver. 1t was like
this: The old man took vacation of two
days, also his wife and five kids, and went
down to Omaha on free pass to take in
the fair. The day he left there was a long
ganging thing come floating into the
office and softly asked if 1 knew anything ,
He looked so much like a train rObber that
1 was a little leery of him, but he imme-
diately introduced himself as the new man

item of any kind to give him, but he looked
so innocent | invited him in and proceeded
to play horse with him. | noticed that he
asked a great many leading questions, but
as he took no notes l thought he was sim

larged on many of his Weaknesses. He
was the best boss in the world, but of
course we had to have fun with him-when
he was out of hearing. My visitor finally
bowed nlmSelI out and L had a laugh bV
myself. l didn't read the papers very
often and forgot about our little visit until
the day the old man came home was at
my desk in peace with the world when the
old man hove in sight jumping sidewise.
L knew there was something wrong but
never guessed the reason.
"What III blazes have you been doing,'
was his first question.
"NOthin'. Why2"

had but one wife. 1 sign no ones name
but my own. l didn't make my wife and
childred walk home from the fair, while |
rode. l didn't pawn my wifes watch to

sy. Get out of my sight before 1 kill you.

wouldn't let me explain that nothing
wrong was intended. Nothing but my
blood or resignation would satisfy him, so

four dollars due me and went on a still
hunt for that reporter. l met him over on
Queer street taking notes on a dog fight.
He had the same xpressiOn with him, but
he didn't remember me. / couldn't make
him understand that it was through his
funny business that had got fired. He
didn't know me from a crow. As he was
too big to attempt to lick, l faded off the

Johh mulqueen Returned 10 the
Insane Asylum,
John Mulqueen was brought in from
Yelm yesterday by Messrs. Sumpter and
Waddell. and turned over to Sheriff Prince
on the ground that he was insane. Null
queen was an inmate of the asylum at
Steilacoom several years ago, but was re-
leased, apparently restored to a normal
mental condition. Evidences of return
of the irresponsible condition caused the
men named to bring him in. An attempt
was made to keep him at the Jefferson ho-
tel yesterday afternoon, but he created
such disturbance that it was necessary to
remove him to the county Jail, where be
was confined oyer night. His violence in
creased and he spent his time yelling,
whistling, breaking the furniture and in
trying to tear down the wall of the Jail. He
created such an uproar that persons living
in the neighbOrhOod found it difficult to
sleep.
This morning he was taken before Judge
Robinson in chambers and made his pres
ence known by smashing the cuspidor of
the court with his shoe. Drs. NeWcOmb
and Armstrong were in attendance. Null
queen was adjudged insane and ordered to
StellacOOm. He was taken thitheI
overland by James Sumpter and Fred

Delay I'm Closing up the County
Court House Contract.
Information was received from Architect
Ritchie today that he would not be able to
come to Olympia and give his opinion re-
garding the new court house, on account
of the sickness of his wife.
This means delay of another week, as
the commissioners can practically do moth
ing until the architect has given his opinion.
AS has been previously stated in THE
TRIBUNE, but little more remains to be
done to make the building complete. Mar
BILE slabs and drinking fountains remain to
be put up, but if the architects certificate
covers all the principal specifications the
building will be accepted and the details
mentioned attended to later. In order to
protect themselves from possible loss by
an underestimate, the commissioners will
probably retain double the estimated cost
of the details mentioned.
The commissioners met this morning
but owing to the absence of Mr.. Ritchie,
nothing could be done.
Contractor Rigby was present and
seemed to be in his usual good humor.
Over $4,000 are due on the contract. If
the $40 per day penalty clause is enforced
it will take over $4, 900 out of the amount
yet due Rigby & Evans. 1t is claimed that
the delay in finishing the building was Oc-
casiOned by rain and unavoidable him
drances. The commissioners, however,
will abide by the decision of the architect.
Furniture will not be put in place until the
building has been accepted

Chairman county committee Of peoples
When questioned about the matter Mr..
Mills said:
"Oh, we are through with it now Mr.
Forrest, in the first place, did not accept
our challenge in the spirit in which it was
made. He sought to drag outside matters
into the CONT oversy. If he had desired to
accept the challenge we could have ar
ranged the details without so much pub
licity. Since he has so persistently rushed
into print we will have nothing more to
do with it."

To the Public: Since the above letter to
Mr.. Mills was in type, called upon him
with ThOs, j. Miller and B. NJ. Price to
arrange for the joint discussion, when Mr..

central committee had authorized him to
recall the challenge. So the people will
know that the discussion is "Of."
