WILLIAM HiLDRETH FINED 5000
IN THE JUSTICE COURT
THIS MORNING.
Pitched Battle in West Main Street
Yesterday Involved Many
Complications.

Mrs. Lonia Tracy, who figured in an
interesting seduction case a year ago,
was able to prove a charge of assault
and battery against William Hildreth
in Judge Huffman's court this morn
ing, resulting in Hildreth being fined
SO and costs amounting to 5000.
According to the testimony of half
dozen witnesses Mrs. Tracy and Hill
dreth created rough house yester-
day at the residence of Ben Teal, un-
der course Of erection in West Main
street, during which Mrs. Tracy
swatted Hildretn a stunning blow
across the shoulders with a window
stick while Hildeth retaliated by
planting heavy blow on Mrs. Tracy's
jaw, bringing the blood and leaving a
mark.
Mr.. Tracy, husband of the complain
ing witness, Hildreth and another
painter were at work on the house
when Mrs. Tracy called to see her hus-
band. Mrs. Tracy says she ignored
the presence of Hildreth and ne made
some sighting remark about her not
recognizing him. The row started
when Mrs. Tracy retaliated by saying
that if some one did not cease telling
stories about her there would be trou-
BILE. Mrs. Tracy testified that Hill
dreth made a run for her when she
him across the shoulders. Tracy tried
to act the part of peacemaker and got
in between the belligerent pair but
Hildreth managed to reach over
Tracy's shoulder and strike Mrs. Tracy
a blow in the face. Tracy finally man
aged to get his wife and Hildreth sep
arated and Hildreth came up town to
swear out a warrant against Mrs.
Tracy.
Mrs. Hildretn and Mrs. Cole, who
witnessed the trouble, told different
stories of the affair, Mrs. Hildreth
claiming that Mrs. Tracy after strik-
ing Hildreth made rush at her with
the stick. Instead of landing on Mrs.
Hildreth the blow struck her little boy
who was standing near. Mrs. Hill
dreth said some very vulgar and OBJ
scene language was used. Hi1dreth
contended he was merely defending
himself. After paying his fine he
wanted a warrant sworn out charging
Mrs. Tracy with assault and battery
on his wife. The court was of the
malicious prosecution and refused to
issue a warrant.

JAPANESE MURDERER WILL
SWING ON THE MORNING
OF JUNE 8.
Brought to Prison by Sheriff Doak Of
Spokane Last Night-Condemned
Man Is Silent.

Henry Arao, sentenced to be hanged
at the state penitentiary on the morn
ing of June 8, was brought to the
prison by Sheriff Doak Of Spokane last
evening. The sheriff brought two
other prisoners, Claud Whitmore, SEN

victed at Spokane last week for the
murder of Chinese laundryman near
Spokane last fall. When turned over
to Warden KEGS last night Arao
seemed Indifferent to his surroundings.
Characteristic of his race Arao has
little to say and answers shortly any
questions put to him. AS soon as he
was received at the penitentiary he
was clothed in prison suit and placed
in a cell by himself, where he will
be kept in close confinement until the
morning of his execution. Arao's at
torneys have stated that they intend
to appeal mis- case to the supreme
court, but as the condemned man has
no funds and his countrymen show
little interest in his case it is doubtful
if an appeal will be taken. The ex-
penses of Araos trial were met by his
attorneys who We're appointed by the
court to defend him.

Don't waste time in seli-pity.

Don't pose as if you expected SYM
pathy
Don't think about your looks.
Don't mix friendship with business.
Don't be perfunctory. Some girls
work as if work bored them. This is
a fearful blunder. Not altogether hon
est either, is it?
Don't wear SNOWY dress or ornaments
during woriirg hours
Don't be late in the morning, or so hur-
ried at leaving that your work is but
half done.
Do be attentive and diligent.
Do bring to the task in hand the best
that is in you.
Do watch for trifies.
Do look out for errors and rectify
them
Do understand the limitations of your
position. A girl who is intrusive or
officious will not succeed in the long
run.

Do master your work
Do everything thoroughly.
Do leave your work behind you when
working hours are done.

two players have an equal number of

the higher number wins.
The fishes may readily be made by
whiting them out of wood and attach
