THREATENED
To Kill His Mother---Drove
Her From the House.

A letter has been received from
San Francisco stating that Prize
fighter Dutch" Thurston recently
visited the home of his mother on
3649A Nineteenth st. and, threaten
ing to kill her, drove the defense
less woman from the house in the
most heartless manner.
The cries of the neighbors sum-
moned the police to the scene and
they seized the fellow and placed
him behind the bars.
Thurston's father is dead. His
mother married second time and
is now Mrs. Bellingham. She lived
for many years in Spokane and
would not have left here were it
not for the inducements offered by
the pugilist to make her home In
San Francisco. MIR. Bellingham did
not go to San Francisco with his
family, but remained here, where
he is employed as a bridge car
penter.
In the letter received from Mrs.
Bellingham she refers in the fol-
lowing language to the behavior of
her son:
Charles has continually quarrel
ed with me because l refuse to
countenance his attentions to his
step-sister, Isabel, who is only IA
years old. He has often struck me,
but l have always forgiven him in
the hope that he would sometime
realize his unnatural conduct.
when / was living at Spokane
Charles visited me. He got very
fond OF Isabel and induced us to
come to San Francisco. He told
me that he had lots of money and
would keep me, Isabel and my other
two children in fine style. AS soon
as we settled here he announced
his infatuation for Isabel, his STEP
sister, and has kept me in hot
water ever since.
Recently he came to the house
with two Of his downtown friends.
After abusing me in the vilest Ian
guage, he threatened to kill me,
and seized chair to make his
threate good. ran from the house
with Isabel. The neighbors called
the police and Charles was ar
rested"
Thurston is 20 years old and his
mother is about so and is well
known In Spokane.

In all probability the Norwegian
Lutheran academy, the establish
ment of which is now being dis
cussed in a conference Of dele
gates at Tacoma, will ultimately
find a location in Spokane.
A considerable contest is being
waged as to the location, and, as
it was decided during the first
hours of the conference that the
academy would be situated east of
the Cascade range, great hopes are
entertained by Norwegian Luther
ans here of its being constructed in
this city.
Spokane offers many peculiar ad-
vantages and contains very strong
