HIS CRIME FORGOTTEN.
Joe Phillips, Formerly of Chippewa
Falls, Dies in Seattle.

Chippewa Falls, Wis, Sept 18.-Joe
Phillips, who for many years was a
resident of Chippewa Falls, died in
ST. Johns hospital at Seattle from
cancer. His right name was Philip
Josie, but upon arriving in this city
- years ago changed his name to that
of Joe Phillips. For that number of
years he has evaded the Canadian Off
GERS, but in the meantime he married
and was the father of two children.
Josie was arrested with another man
at Ontario on the charge of having
murdered a young girl, and was sen
fenced to life Imprisonment. One
night, in company with other prison
ers, Josie escaped. The officers went
in pursuit and followed the prisoners
for two weeks. The boat in which
they were attempting to cross the On
tario river capsized and by some
means Josie managed to leave his
companions with the belief that he
was drowned, and the search for him
was abandoned. He then came to
Chippewa Falls. Only few of his
most intimate friends knew Of his ca
teer and it was never discussed.
When he became sick from the can
Ger and was preparing to die he made
z full confession of the past. The
girls name whom he killed was Miss
Annie Adams, his sweetheart.
Josie became quite popular here
with owners of summer lodges on
Long lake, having for many years
been employed by the late Col George
c. Ginty at the Saints Rest.
