CUSTODY IN
MILLER CASE

c. S. Savage, a railroad fireman,
has been brought into the case of
Clara Miller, the Dayton girl who
has been led estray since coming to
Spokane and who figures in the case
of the colored porter, Fred Brown.
Savage is the man who in the
estimation of the police is responsible
for the girls first saunterings into
the forbidden path. He was living
at Hillyard and the girl came there
and worked in a dining room as
waitress, falling a victim to allure
ments.
Later the girl appeared In Spo-
kane and came in ontact with a col
ored woman restaurant employe, and
thus became acquainted with Brown.
Officers Thompson and Miles ar
rested Savage today.

SORROW THROUGHOUT COUNTRY

And quick as a flash she turned, and
made
For that willer-bank on the right.
There was runnin' and cursin', but
Jim yelled out,
Over all the internal roar,
'I'll hold her nozzle agin' the bank
Till the last galoot's ashore"
Through the hot, black breath Of the
burnin' boat
Jim Bludso's voice was heard,
And they all had trust in his cussed-
ness,
And knowed he would keep his
word.
And, sure's you're born, they all got
off
Afore the smokestacks fell
And Bludsos ghost went up alone
In the smoke of the Prairie Belle.
Helweren't no saint-but at Judgment
I'd run my chance with Jim,
'Longside of some pious gentlemen
That wouldn't shook hands with
him.
He seen his duty, a deadsure thing
And went for it thar and then;
And Christ amt a-going to be too
hard
On a man that died for men.

Because he don't live, you see;
Leastways, he's got out of the habit

Whar have you been for the last

That you haven't heard folk tell
How Jimmy Bludso passed in his

He weren't no saint-them engineers
Is pretty much alike
One wife in Natche2-under-the-
And another one here. in Pike;
A keerless man in his talk was Jim,
But he never funker. and he never
I reckon he never knowed how.
And this was all the religion he had
To treat his engine we'll;
Never to be passed on the river;
TO mind the pilots bell;
And IL ever the Prairie Belle took

A thousand times he swore,
He'd hold her nozzle agin the bank
TIL the last soll got ashore.

But the Belle she WOULDN'T be

field, ILL.,, and was graduate of
Brown university in 1853. His col
legiate titles from Brown were A.
NJ. LII. D., and the latter title was
also conferred by Yale, Harvard,
Princeton and Western Reserve uni
versities.
His career from the time of leaving
collegiate life was extremely rapid in
advancement Hay was admitted to
the Illinois bar; he became one of the
private secretaries of President Lin
coin and was with him until his
death AS Lincolns aide Hay served
on the field and earned the rank of
colonel.
Diplomatically Hays career has
been as extensive ns brilliant. After
the war he was sent to Paris as sec
rotary of legation, and served in a
similar capacity In Madrid and vi
emma.
In 1870 he turned to newspaper
work and became an editor on the
New York Tribune. Coming to Cleve-
land, o., later on, he married Clara
Stone, daughter of Amasa Stone. a
millionaire.
OF the children born 10 them, the
sad death of Adelbert Hay, who fell
from Il window at New Haven, Conn,
Is of comparatively recent recollec-
ton.
In 1897 and 1898. as ambassador
to England, Hays diplomatic talents
obtained universal recognition.
As secretary of state, to which Of
fee he was appointed by Mckinley in
1898. the feature of the Hay policy
was the substitution of truth telling
for lying. In this respect he set all
traditions of diplomacy aside. The
shade of a Talleyrand must have
groaned could 1t have heard the utter
ances of Hay.
gotiated by Hay. The most import
ant, probably, was the Hay-Paunce-
fote, which paved the way for the
construction of the Panama canal by
abolishing the old Clayton Bulwer
treaty. which for years had been a
.
preventing. as II did. the construction
of the canal without the consent OF
foreign powers, chiefly of Great
Britain.
Two treaties were negotiated to
bring about this result, the first hav-
ing been rejected by the senate,
much to the chagrin of Hay. who
considered that England had con-
descended greatly in yielding to the
United States. second and even
more liberal treaty, however, was
later secured and ratified by the
senate.
1t was Hays guidance that led to
the United States taking the lead In
the diplomacy of the orient, where
the United States has stood for the
territorial integrity of the Chinese
empire, and the open door for Amerl-
can trade.
Had Hay never shone as diplo-
matte star he would be remembered
as luminary In the world of litera-
ture, and. strange to say. Hay was
forever endeavorinR to live down his
literary reputation.
His greatest work. undoubtedly IN
popular estimation. was the thrilling
story In verse of Jim Bludso, or
