task and help her brother. She had
an idea that the police were in league
against him, and Warde seemed to be
the only friend they had.
When Irving Warde returned to the
city he began to realize that he had
shouldered Il big job. Here was a
case SO plain as to stagger almost
any one. The hand of fate seemed to
be in it. By having in his possession
those pawn tickets calling for the
murdered mans articles, Wright's
doom had apparently been sealed.
How could they have come into the
young mans hands unless he had
taken them from his father? The
old man had been murdered and
robbed, and the articles Of which he
had been robbed and for which he
had apparently been murdered had
been traced to Herbert Wright.
AS an offset to this he had as pegs
on which to hang a theory:
/. The arctics.
2. The unidentified watch.
If he could find out who wore the
arctics. it would enable him to deter
mine what part the wearer played in
the tragedy. if any; but he had little
hope that he would be able to make
any progress in this line Of inquiry.
And the watch? Even suppose an
owner were found for it. he mi light
be some one who had been robbed,
and another crime would be laid up to
Wright's account without helping his
case at all.
That afternoon Warde called at the
Jail and sought an interview with
Wright. The latter was evidently
very much bewildered over the drift
of affairs, and he showed it in his
face as well rs his speech. Warde
assured him that he believed in his
innocence and that he would try to
establish the fact; but Wright de,
clined to say anything regarding the
case that could help the reporter in
his researches.
81 am entirely innocent of this
crime. My father was killed with 8
pistol. and have not had such a
| weapon in my hand for months

There is an old pistol in my house

I hard part, an injustice may say, of
circlImstantial evidence. Without
offering direct proof of Il mans guilt,
, it weavcs /; network about him SO
| plausible and so apparently convinc-
| ing that it is almost impossible for
him to establish his innocence. Cir
clmstnntinI evidence assumes that |
am guilty, and then challenges me to
prove that am not. 1t would be
impossible for me to prove an alibi,
because the time of the killing is not
exactly located. I have a suspicion of
my own about this case. but do not
feel warranted in telling what it is.

At this moment all further CONVEX

that she was Il pleasant faced. rather

Douglas Island news., 1903-05-06

There is acually some talk among the printin' fellers of s. B. Alaska, of forming an editorial association. Of course we don't expect them to do any thing but talk. A few years ago an eff fort was made to form such an organi- zation, but everybody wanted the dis tinguished honor of the presidency and it fell through. The editors of this part of Alaska are mostly all wind and soon blow out.
 The following is list of the grand jury now in session at Juneau: Juneau, c. M. Summers, foreman, F. Brown, D. Ledbetter, Pat Envoy, Wm. Reynolds, R. P. Nelson, F. Young,J. Mclaughlin, L. Winter; Douglas, MT. Rosenof, M. l.. Tatum, E. J. N. Ott; Skagway, G. Chealander, H. H. Draper J. Herbarger; Ketchikan, A. P. Swineford; Sitka, IL. Cogswell and l.. k. Flower. Among the jurors excused were Col. Critten- den, Wm. Stubbins, w. A. Mackie and w. H. McBlaine.
 We have received a copy of the annu- al report of the Alaska Agricultural Experiment Stations, by c. c. George son, special agent in charge. It contains much matter of interest to Alaska far mers and gardeners, and to the general public as we'll. If copy could be placed in the hands of every man in Alaska, they might all be led to high CT appreciation of the wonderful re- sources of this country. Also extracts from the report would open the eyes of the world on a great many points on which ignorance now prevails.
 Last Friday evening Miss Edna Car penter entertained few of her friends in very pleasant manner It being the first day of May, the regulation May pole, artistically decorated, comprised a part of the decorations. The colors were red and white. The evening pass ed very quickly, with games and music as the principal features. At l1:3O the gentlemen were requested to repair to the hall, after which the lunch, which was served in dainty May baskets, was passed around to the ladies, each bas- ket containing lunch for two, being adorned with bow of ribbon, cores bonding with those enclosed in envel- opes which each gentleman selected from basket, prepared for that pur- pose. The gentlemen were then allow ed to match their ribbons, and proceed with the lunch. Each couple seated themselves on the floor in regular pie nic style. MT. Barrackman, as matter of course, was the last one to be so un- dignified as to sit on the floor, and as a penalty was obliged later to sing a couple of solos, which every one en- I joyed. At an early hour next morning the merry party departed, after ex- pressing themselves as having enjoyed most pleasant evening. Those present. were the Misses Galloway, Eagap, Glas en, Francis and Lily Penglase, and Messrs. Holt, McKanna, Hebert, Mul- ] len, Barrackman, Reid and Woodruff.

Shepard, of the us. customs service, has forwarded from his depart ment 6 complete report, covering Ju neau, Douglas and Treadwell, which contains much information concerning these places that would be interesting to many people in the states, if it were printed in the proper form for general circulation. The report shows careful painstaking labor on the part of MT ' Shepard. May 3Oth is observed all up and dowr this broad land of ours as day sci apart to the memory of the dead. For merly it was only the graves of soldiers that were covered with flags and flowers on that day, but in later years it has become the custom to remember the others who have been taken, and honor their memory. It appears to us that it would be proper for the people of Douglas Island to take steps toward the proper observance of this day While only one civil war veteran lies ir his last sleep on this Island, yet there are many noble ones who have fallen in the battle of life and whose memory is dear.
