The latest developments relating to
the murder of stuck" (Peter) Samp-
son are narrated by the Yakima Re-
public as follows:
\ warrant has been issued for the
arrest of the brother of Billy George
a Yakima Indian, who is now In the
county Jail charged with the murder
of Columbia river Indian, called
stuck" Billy George and his broth
er killed stuck" about two weeks
ago one mile south of Toppenish on |
the Yakima reservation. Billy George
was arrested, but his brother escapt
and is now said to be picking hops
at O near ny ranch. The officers Will
probably arrest the fugitive today and
place him behind the bars with his
brother.
Albert Barnhart, Umatilla Indian,
brought Billy Albert before the pros
ecuting attorney yesterday afternoon
and acted as interpreter for the latter
while the story of the murder of
stuck" was related
"Billy Albert was with stuck and
they We're both riding for home;
Stuck was drunk, and could hardly
sit upon his pony. They had not gone
far out of Toppenish when Billy
George accompanied by his brother
rode up to them, and began to curse
stuck Billy George pulled a bottle
of whisky from his pocket and asked
stuck to have a drink. After drink
ing Stuck started or a gallop, but
had only gone a few yards when his
hat was blown off. Billy Albert stopt
to get the hat. while the two Yakima
Indians followed the hatless Indian
, down the road. They jerkt him from
his horse, and both dismounted and
! drew knives.
Just at that moment Billy Albert
came upon the trio. and found them
fighting. The brother of Billy George
delivered the fatal blow, stabbing
stuck in the forehead with his knife,
and as the latter sank to the earth
Billy George stabbed him several
times In the neck. Albert jumpt from
his horse to assist stuck but just as
he did so one of the George Indians
struck him with a quart bottle OF
) whisky and knocked him down. Billy
George said: Let's kill him, or he will
be a witness against u.s. When AL
bert was knockt down he rolled under
barb wire fence and crawled out on
the other side and ran for his life
This alone saved him from death at
, the hands of the infurated Indians
"The George Indians then threw
their knives down by the side OF
l 'Stuck's' body and mounted theii
= horses to ride away. They had only
gone a short distance from the scene
when Johnny Frank and two othei
Indians rode upon them. Said Billy
George: I'm a great fighter; have {
drink, boys When Billy Albert saw
: ans, he approacht and told them wha
u had happened. The George Indian
> then rode off. Johnny Frank re
-, markt. We will have to be witnes
to this murder"
Billy Albert further said tina
stuck" was not armed with a wea
y pom of any kind. He was large In
. dian and a splendid type of the abo
~ rigine.
a The county authorities are determ
ined to prosecute this case to the flu
10 extent of the law. They say the evi
u, dence is convincing and have arrive
~ at the conclusion that 1t will be foil
r to let theze Indian murders continu
n without giving them lawful attention

nual gathering of the Oregon and

a surprize which Mr.. Robinson had IT
store for his guests and not until they
burst into the room with a whoop anC

coming. Some of the guests sue
ceeded in reaching the sidewalk D!

Kissing Susan Jones

copyright, 1906. by Mcclure. Phillips q Col
At the age Of twelve fell violently
ia love with Susan Jones.
Susan was no kind of girl. On tho
contrary. her age was almost twenty
and her weight about 100 pounds. Had
Susan been careless enough to sit down
on me should have been mashed as
Dat as shinsle.
Heavens, how I loved that girl! /
lost my appetite and my sleep over II,

looked at my tongue and sagely shook
bis head and said that was going into
a decline, Being older and more OF her,
Susan didn't have II quite so bad, but
1t was limited throughout the school
that she was eating chalk to make her
look pale
At the beginning Of winter a man
who called himself Professor Swift
came along and opened a writing ana
singing school combined. Susan and
were among his pupils.
my breast was forced TO observe
that the professor was flirting with the
Idol of my heart. As we walked home
together ! charged her with II. and she
made indignant denial. simply call
ed her false and told her to go TO grass
and when she sank down in snow
drift and pretended TO faint away
walked on and left her TO get frostbit-
ten toes. The next night the professor
escorted her home.
After three or four days thought
Susan showed signs Of relentng and
though the professor went home with
her from the school tagged along aft

She didn't however, but when the
writing master left her on the doorstep
| saw him deliberately kiss her. !
thought she also kissed In return. and
was so furious that the white snow
looked red to me.

HITS AT HARVARD FOOTBALL.
Would Like to Abolish the Game for a
Year.

Cambridge, Mass, Feb. 9.--The Off
cial announcement that the faculty Of
Harvard has expressed It's opinion TO
the committee on athletic sports that
intercollegiate foot ball should be pro
hibited to Harvard students In 1906,
and until a reasonable game shall be
formulated, was made yesterday By Je-
rome d. Greene, secretary TO President
Eliot.
Several weeks ago the board OF over.

satisfactory change in the rules, and
while neither the board Of oyerseers nor
the faculty now possesses the right 10
prohibit any form Of athletics 1t II
realized that the athletic committees win
