The dispatch from Sedro Wooley,
Wash, containing an account of the
arrest of John Flax. the confessed
murderer Of Nora Fuller. the San
Francisco girl whose horrible fate
was a coast sensation, caused much
merrlment IN Astoria, where Flax Is
well known, lie came here Inst March
and entered the employ of j. V. Burns
as a cigar maker. Flax travelled un-
der an assumed name. probably be-
cause he had fallen by the wayside
at some time and. having violated the
rules OF the cigar makers union, found
another name a convenience, Ills
friends here are satisfied he halls from
Chicago. Contessng to the murder of
Nora Fuller was nothing new with
Flax, who otten made similar confess
sions in this city. He drank heavily
and whenever drunk would reclte his
connection with the crime. He usually
wound up with the statement that
there was a reward of $500 on his
head, aid tha. some one of his listen
ers might, with prnpriety, give him 50
cents that he might have few drinks
before surrendering himself to his
fate. Flax is a very bright fellow and
an entertainer of more than ordinary
ability, possessing a fine voice and
having pleasing flow OF language,
Flax was Identified at Sedro- Woo,ey
by Michael Fahey, also formerly of
this city. The men were acquaintances
here. They had trouble, ana Flax adj
mlnlstered TO Fnhey a beating which
the latter evidently has not forgot
ten. The arrest Of Flax caused sem
sation in San Francisco, where 1t was
supposed for a time yesterday that the
brutal munierer had been captured.
