Friedrich stu Hopes.

The arguments in the case against
Charles w. Nordstrom, charged with
murder, were concluded yesterday after
noon at 4 o'clock and the jury retired at
40, and up to the hour of going to press
had not arrived at an agreement.
Attorney Soderberg's argument was be-
gun at $50 in the morning and lasted
until 2:30 in the afternoon. He held
that the evidence against Nordstrom was
insufficient for conviction; that he
had established an alibi, and that
the prosecution had shown no sufficient
motive in the prisoner for the commission
of the crime. It was more likely, he said.
that the young Lindsy boy whom Willie
Mason had had difficulty with was the
guilty one.
Prosecuting Attorney Miller spoke for
IN hour and half in the closing argu-
ment against the prisoner. He summed
up the evidence and made q strong plea
for bis conviction.

EVANS To BE TRIED TO-DAY.
The Negro Wife Murderer Of Franklin
to Answer for His Crime.

The trial of James @. Evans, the negro
miner, charged with the murder of his
wife at Franklin early in December. will
be commenced this morning in Judge
Humes' department of the superior court.
Nineteen witnesses have been subpenaed
by the state and all are in the city and
everything is In readiness to go ahead with
the case. 1t is probable that it will attract
almost as much attention as the Nord-
strom trial, which has just closed.
Evans is one of the negro miners brought
from the East by the Oregon Improvement
Company last spring. to work in the mines
at Newcastle and Franklin. The story of
his crime is that on the night of December
, last he went to the cabin of another
negro miner named Jackson, and found
his own wife coming out with Jackson.
He stepped up to his wife and
asked to speak to her mo-
ment alone. She refused to hear him
and he pulled big revolver and shot her
twice, infiicting wounds from which she
died shortly afterwards. Evans then
turned toward Jackson and shot at him,
but missed. A few minutes afterward he
went to the proper authorities and gave
himself up and has since been in the
county iaii

DEMOCRATS AND THE CHARTER.
Opinions by Men Who Haven't Had
Time to Read the Amendments.

~
Time to Read the Amendments.
The members of the Fourth Ward
Democratic Club met last night with a
very commendable object in view. 1t was
intended to have some speakers present
who should explain to Democrats who
from the nature of their occupations have
very little time to study municipal Iegisla-
ton. but as it proved they were addressed
by a man who hadn't had time to
look into the matter. but wants the
amendments killed because the charter is
hopelessly bad, by one who wants them
voted down because the charter is the best
ever planned, by one who refused an invi-
tation to act on the committee for their
preparation but condemned what had been
done, and by one who confessed that his
knowledge of municipal government would
fill very small pamphlet.
Mr.. L. b. Hardin gave a fine description
of the government of Washington City,
which he considers the best in the world,
and attributes it TO the fact that the city
is governed entirely by three men, who
are not elected but appointed, and who
have large salaries. They do the busi-
ness of the city well and economically.
For that season he was opposed TO
having the same thing in Seattle, and
thought the amendments doing away with
the police and fire commissioners should
be voted down. He objects to doctors.
storekeepers and lawyers attempting TO
run the government, but wants five or six
good men picked out. He objected to hav-
ing cheap men in Office. He related an
amusing anecdote. which was much rel
ished, about some old soldiers who, as he
said. fought, bled and died for their
country put were always alive on pay
day." He was in favor of all the amend
ments except those abolishing q lot of
offices.
Mr.. Strudwick hadn't had time to give
the subject the investigation its import
ance required, but advised every other
Democrat 10 do it. He favored reducing
the number OF delegates and having alder
men elected from the wards; he was not
in favor Of paying salaries to couacilmen.
He thought the party ought not to vote
for amendments abolishing the board of
commissioners.
Mr.. De Voc believed the present charter
as il stands to he one of the best any city
ever had. He said it would be all right
next year when the Democrats run it.
He was opposed to the chiefs of
IRE and police departments appointing
their own men. Nashville, Tenn, is one
of the best governed cities in the world; it
is run by board of works whose members
receive $1,000 a year each. He was OPP
posed 70 having the government of Seattle
run by the board, but wanted all the
boards of commissioners retained. He
was opposed 10 paying councilmen any
salary and objected 10 changing the Office
of city attorney.
Some general remarks followed, but no
vote was taken, the discussion being for
educational purposes only.

RUNAWAY BOY CAPTURED.
He Would Rather Dance for Stranger
Than for His Eafher

George Lavesser. "a bright-eyed 12-year-old
boy, was arrested last evening for running
away from his home in Montana last sum-
mer. The lad is very small for his age;
he will not weigh over eighty pounds.
Several days ago Captain J. L. Barck re-
ceiyed letter from the boys father, Flor
antser Lavesser, who lives at Missoula,
stating that his 12-year-old son, George,
had run away from home and had taken up
with variety performer. He thought the
boy would land in Seattle within few
days and requested that he be arrested and
placed in Jail until arrangements should
be made by which he could be returned to
his home.
Captain Barck has been on the alert for
the youngster ever since he received the
letter. Last night, at $50 o'clock, his at
tention was drawn to a great noise in a
Jackson street saloon-dive. He went into
the place and found crowd of maudlin
ioungers, all stamping their feet and clap
ping their hands, while perched on a
corner of a long bar which runs
along the wall at one side of
the room, was gray-haired veteran of
hundred DRINKS grinding dismally on a
dilapidated fiddle. In a cleared space in
the center of the room was a bright-eyed
little boy doing a wing dance. Captain
Barck watched the boy, who is an excel
lent dancer, for moment. and then placed
his hand on his head and said:
What are you doing down here,
George?"
"How did you know me2" asked the
youngster, in wide-eyed astonishment.
"0h, / know you," said the captain.
"Your name is Lavesser."
You're right" answered the boy.
At the city Jail the boy became very
much detected and said he didn't want to
go back home, adding:
MY father owns clearinghouse at Missoula,
and he plays the fiddle for dances, some
times. lie never treated me right. When
he drank he would go into saloons and mako
me dance to his music. II I should quit dane
ing before / was told he would fog me when we
went home Sometimes I would dance till
was so tired would fall down.
Last summer l ran away and went
10 Granite. From there I went to Tekoa
