INGRATITUDE AND MURDER.
How an migrate Laid the Plans which
Resulted In the killing of
His Friend.

A detective told story few evenings
ago which illustrates the ingratitude of
criminals. The migrate, says a Chica-
go exchange, was one of the principals
In the MoGee murder, which was com
mitted q little over year ago. His
name was w. j. Willows, u well appear
ing youth, but the man who decoyed
the aged creamery agent into the In
diana avenue apartment building where
Jacks killed him. Willows had been in
trouble" before that, and the man who
came to the front" for him was the
keeper of lunch counter near the Grim
lnal Court building. The mans wife
had known Willows in his days of re-
spectabilty in a small Michigan town.
She urged her husband to do what he
could for him, and, with money for at
torney's fees and few well placed
words of commendation, Willows was
helped to get out of the scrape. The
lunch-counter man was a close personal
friend of the old man McGee, and liked
him much. He talked to Willows about
him in their short acquaintanceship in
the days of Willows trouble, and the
lunch-counter man told his acquaint-
ance how much this friend had done
for him, yet, while in Jail, Willows met
Jacks and the two of them formed the
plan of robbery which led to McGee's
murder. The lunch-counter man lost
his best friend through a needless and
useless murder and Willows earned a
sentence in the penitentiary.

Senator Hayward Stricken.

OMAHA, Aug. Ex-senator NJ. L..
Hayward was stricken with apopleXy
yesterday at Brownvillc, Ncb., where he
had gone to deliver an address at the
Modern Woodmen picnic. He was APP
parently in good health and spirits up to
the moment of attack, and was sitting
Oh the platform chatting pleasantly with
friends while awaiting his turn to speak.
Just as the presiding officer was about
to introduce the senator he was seen
to sway in his chair and then fall help
less to the platform. Two doctors who
were in the audience speedily made
their way to his side, and the members
OF the Woodmen formed in line to keep
the crowd back. The doctors worked
with him from little after IL o'clock,
when he was stricken, until almost
o'clock, before the senator recovered
consciousness. He was then removed to
a cottage nearby, where he now is.

The New Fish Hatcheries.

/
Even before the money for their con-
struction becomes available, hungry
populists are besieging the state fish
commissioner for berths in the new
fish hatcheries, which he will build
this year. The fish commissioner has
been deluged with applications. He
attempted to seek rest in his home at
Aberdeen, but the officeseeker followed
him there. He took the train for Ia
coma and was met with new appli-
cants. Since he has returned he has
been waylaid by men of all statures
who want to superintend the hatch
ing of fish in the state institutions.
It is probable that seven hatcberies
will be constructed this year and the
program outlined is to build all of them
before the second year elapses. AS
soon as the appropriation made for the
purpose becomes available the commits
sioner will purchase the hatchery on
the Samish river and will begin work
Immediately. The number of appli-
cants for positions in this hatchery
would supply all that are to be con-
structed.
Following the purchase of the Sam
ish hatchery, work will be commenced
on the construction of hatcheries on
the Nooksack, Wenatchee, Skokomish,
Willapa and Wind rivers. They will
be constr ucted in their order, though
it is believed possible to have all of
them constructed before the time for
operation arrives.
For all save the Wind river hatch
cry. an appropriation OF $5, 900; So, 600
available the first year, and So, 600 the
second, has been made. The appro-
priation for the Wind river hatchery
is $1,000, 81, 800 of which is available
this year and ST. 900 the second year.
There is now about $4,000 in the
hatchery fund and this is sufficient to
begin work on the more important
hatcheries.
The estimated revenue to be de-
rived from the operation of the new
fisheries law this year is $4,000. 1t
is expected that $4,000 will be re-
ceived next year. This will be suffic
lent to construct and operate all the
proposed hatcheries and the annual
revenues thereafter will keep them in
successful operation.
Applications for permits to lease
oyster lands under the provisions of
the new oyster bills are coming in
rapidly. Oyster fishermen are eager
to avail themselves of the twenty-year
lease privileges of the law.-Ledger.

Governor Rogers has definitely de-
termined to allow house bill No. 248
to become law without his signature.
This bill is entitled can act relating to
revenues and taxes on real property
which became delinquent during the
year1897 and all years prior thereto,
remitting all penalties and interests
thereon if paid on or before the first
day of November, 1899, and declaring
an emergency"
Delinquent taxpayers throughout the
state have been awaiting with much
anxiety for the governors action on
this bill. In the early part of the ses-
sion, before the bill was introduced,
Governor Rogers stated emphatically
his aversion to any such measure, as
he considered it corporation move
ment, instigated by the,railroads with a
view to obtain title to their lands with
out paying their enormous delinquent
taxes. This bill was the only impor-
tant measure in which King and Pierce
counties worked i'll harmony, and Seat
tie and Tacoma had delegates in this
city urging the governor to sign the
measure. Added to this kilograms

the nature of the telegrams was not all
