The Paramta arrived this morning,
twenty eight days from San Pedro. Ten
days ago she encountered heavy north
easterly gales. and the entire crew was
on deck all the time. Wednesday the
vessel struck a heavy gale off Flattery.
Two sails were blown away. and while
the crew was making repairs the
emergency spar on deck broke loose
and damned the door of the galley.
Billy Henson was inside and did not
notice the accident. Just then wave
struck the vessel with terrific force,
and the stove, which had been inse-
curely fastened, plunged forward. Billy
jumped and the stove hurled past him
He grabbed a stick and tried to right
it, but the return reel of the ship
threw te stove back at him so quick
ly that he barely escaped. Back and
forward went the stove, and around

to open the door, but failed. He even
tried a pail of water, but could not

help. and the crew seeing the spar,
took it away. releasing the burned and
perspiring cook after fifteen minutes of
the liveliest work snce he first went

SEATTLE MAKES EXPLANATION
Million Dollar Appropriation Asked for
Fair Is Absolutely Needed
by State.

SEATTLE Jan. 3O.-(Special corre-
spondence)-TwO bills introduced in
the present session of the legislature
provide for total appropriation for
the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition of
81, OOO. 900.
One bill calls for an appropria ton
of 100000 which, though it's provi-
not in a strict sense of the word an
exposition measure. This bill provides
for permanent buildings for the Uni
versity of Washington. The buildings
are absolutely necessary On account of
the rapid growth of the state UNI
versity. The structures will be erect
ed at once and used by the university
until the exposition needs them when
they will be loaned to the fair manage
ment during the period of the EXPOSE
ton purposes. Every cent of the $780,
600 appropriation will be expended un-
der the direct supervision of the board
of regents of the university, who are
responsible men with fixed duties es-
tablished by the laws of the state
The other bill for 100000 provides
Cor the participation ot the state OF
Washington by the erection of a hand
some building and the installation
therein of a representative exhibit. BY
the bill, not one dollar of this money
will go into the treasury of the ex-
position. The money will be expended
under the direct supervision of a state
commission appointed by the COVER
nor, or in the same manner as the
Washington commissions to the "h'-
cago. St. Louis and Portland fairs
conducted their work.
Oregon appropriated 100000 for the
Lewis and Clark exposition in 1903
when its population was about 100000
and the assessed valuation Of it's prop
erty a shade under $174,000,000. This
made Sill for every man, woman and
child in the state, and in the aggre
gate, little more than one-third OF
one per cent of its assessed valuation.
Washington is asked for only 100000
at a time when its population Is
about $4,000 and its assessed valua-
ion $500 100000. This is only Al cents

SERVING TIME FOR HIS DOUBLE.
MARYLAND Man Asks for His Release
From Penitentiary.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Jan. 3O.-A case
has been laid before Gov Warsf1eld by
the mother of Joseph Luery, who has
served four years of a term Of six
years in the Maryland penitentiary. to
which he was sentenced after convic-
ton of larceny by the criminal court
of Baltimore. the woman asserting that
her son was the innocent victim of
circumstances and was suffering on
account of his wonderful similarity in
appearance to another young man
whose crimes both in Baltimore and
Philadelphia had been the cause of
Luerys trouble.
The appearance was so similar the
mother declared. that she could not tell
them apart when a few feet distant.
The wOman's assertion is in a measur
sustained by the fact that records OBJ
tanned through Governor Warfeld's
direction show that Luery had been ar
rested twenty-six times in Baltimore
and Philadelphia where he formerly
lived and that in nearly every case he
was dismissed.
Luery alleges that he has always led
a correct life and that his previous ar
rests We're shown to have been on
account OF the misdoings of his
double. He was convicted in January.

while bullets from his rifle buzzed
around their heads.
Cover was reached at small store
in the distance, and there Hornback
held his men imprisoned for time.
From a distance of a hundred yards,
he told them how straight he could
shoot, and nearer and nearer the bull
let's came to the building. Death at
the hands of the mailman stared the i'm
prisoned men in the face, and after
consultation, it was decided to disable
him if possible. Their aim proved
fatal, however, and in an instant
Hornback was dead.
The first party of royal Northwest
mounted police composed of COnsta-
bles Stark and Shand, left in quest of
the rancher about the end of Deem
Der. No word being heard from them,
a second party composed Of Corporal
MunrOe and another, was sent out sew
eral weeks ago. The latter met the
first at Lobstick lake, about eighty
m.es from Lac Ste. Anne, returning
with the body of the rancher. Word
was sent ahead to Lac Ste. Anne of the
occurrence, and this Constable Tyler
learned from an Indian runner who
had travelled on foot over the trail.
1t was expected that they would
reach Lac Ste. Anne today, and an in
quest either will be held there or the
body will be brought through to Ed
monitor, where the men who were par
Elephants in the homicide will probably
be place on trial.
The stock of Horback rs also being
brought from Grand Eddy. 1t consists
of thirty mares, half of the original
bunch that HOrnback took north from
Cochrane last fall. The remainder have
died from exposure. The tramp north
by Constables Stark and Shand was an
exceedingly hard one. They We're un-
provided with snow shoes, and this
made the journey more difficult. The
second party had this convenience, and
it's trip was rendered considerably
easier.
