Last night she essayed the part again. not with
complete happiness in the vocal part. with few

TRYING RUN DOWN MURDERER
George Stickman, An Indian, Lately
Seen In Aberdeen.

OLYMPIA, Wash.-WOrd has been
received by Sheriff McClarty, that
George Sickman, the Indian who es-
capped from the Thurston county Jail
about ten years ago, after having been
given a fourteen-year sentence for
the murder of Indian Jack Kehoe on
the west side, has been located on the
reservation near Aberdeen. Efforts
were at once made to get him, but
he evidently got wind that he was
located and skipped out. 1t is be-
lieVed. however, that he will be cap
tured within a fe wdays.
The first the sheriff knew of Sick
mans whereabouts was when a Mr..
White in Aberdeen called him up
few days ago and asked if the Indian
was wanted here. The records were
looked up, and it was learned that he
is wanted here to serve out a heavy
sentence. White and Sheriff Graham
We're instructed to capture him, but
in the meantime Sickman had made
his way to Hoquiam. The town mar
shall of HOquiam was telegraphed to,
but he answered that Sickman had
left he town before word was re-
ceived, Officers are now on the look
out for the Indians.
Sickman had been on the reservation
for some time, but nobody remembered
that he was a fugitive from justice.
The crime for which he was convict
ed was for killing Indian Jack Kehoe,
in a drunken quarrel. Another In
dian named Williams was afterWard
killed by another Indian. Sickman
was convicted about the same time,
and his term was for fourteen years
Before the time came to take him to
Walla Walla, however, he managed
to escape from the county jail. No
trace has been had of him since until
a few days ago.

WAS NOT LEGALLY REVIVED
Supreme Court Affirms Decision In
Pierce County.

OLYMPIA, Dec. 4.-The supreme
court in a recent decis' on sustalns
the superior court of Pierce county
in holding that an order of revival OF
judgment cannot be legally entered
before five years from the entry OF the
original Judgment. Proceedings to
revive a judgment are premature If
begun before the expiration of the
five-year period.
The case was that of the Tacoma
National bank, a corporation, Chris
tan Anderson, assignee, appellant, vs.
Otis Sprague, respondent.
On June "a, 1894, the bank obtained
a judgment in the superior court OF
Pierce county against Otis Sprague,
G. Van Horne and r. w. Derrickson,
Jointly and severally. for $4,130.
This Judgment was sold to Ander-
son in November, 1897. On December
% 1898. Anderson filed a motion for
revival of the Judgment; summons
was served upon Sprague alone. NO
appearance was made by Sprague, ana
on January 10, 1899, an order was en-
tered reviving the judgment against
Sprague alone for the amount then
due s6,151.4O.
On April IS, 1903, Anderson caused
writ of execution to issue upon the
revived judgment, and on April 80
1903. Sprague filed a motion to quash
the writ. The motion to quash was
sustained on the ground that the
Judgment had become dormant and
had not bee lawfully revived prior to
the issuance of the writ of execution.
Anderson appealed and the decision

TACOMA, Wash.-Death came sud-

five miles from Tacoma. About 2 o.
clock in the afternoon in the midst of
the Windstorm which kept up all day
while he was quietly talking to a
friend, he was struck dead by a fall
ing limb, within eighty feet Of his own
door.
At that point there is a sawmill
and the timber has been thinned out,
leaving only a few scattered trees,
which are easily blown down. The
tree, the fall of which caused Roth
miller's death, was perhaps 125 feet
in height and not more than ten inches
in diameter at the base. In falling it
struck a large log near the base, and
this served to make a whip-stOck of
the top, giving it a tremendous swing.
A small limb, not over two inches in
diameter was hurled against Rothmil-
ler's head. 1t struck with great force

w. G. WHITNEY DENIES CHARGES
MADE BY HTS DAUGHTER,
MRS. ALICE HESS.
He Says He Never Turned Her Awav
From Home, but She EIoped-Has
Been Repeatedly Helped.

William G. Whitney, father of Mrs.
near Spokane, has written a letter to
the Spokesman Review, in which he
answers the charges filed by his
daughter with the county commits
sioners Of Spokane. In the letter he
says:
THE article published in The
Spokesman-Review under date of No
vember 90, Mrs. Hess claiming to
have been sold by her father for $3.50
when she was only 10 years old, is
false. She was q years old, and was
married to Mr.. Hess, a wealthy Wild
over of Erie county, Pennsylvania,
and not of Walla Walla county. Mrs
Alice Hess was born July II, 1851, and
was married to John Hess in 1873.
She was never turned away from
her fathers home, but ran away and
was married and her father knew no
thing of the wedding till after it was
over.
She always has money, and has
been helped by her relatives time and
again, but it does her no good. She
has mania for mining stock, and
only a few years ago traded off fine
farm of 800 acres for mining property
and has just recently sold her proper
ty in Walla Walla for 1926 cash.
She has never been turned away
from her fathers home: but they have
done all they could to have her stay
with them, but she will not stay with
any of her relatives: neither can they
do anything with her, she preferring
to be among strangers.
'She has had the same advantages
and has been as we'll treated as any
of her brothers or sisters, but the
way of the transgressor is hard; she
