IT'S ALL A LIE
SAYS WOODS
Nothing in the Report That He was
to BE Married at Tacoma
While Absent.

Rufus Woods, proprietor and pub
Usher of the Daily World was not
altogether pleased when he read the
article in Thursdays paper stating
that some of his friends here sus-
pected that he had gone to be mar
ried. He called up the Office over
the long distance telephone from
Everett Saturday evening and said
that the report that he had gone to
Tacoma to get married was all lie.
Mr., Woods says that he has had
no intention of getting married and
that he has never thought of such
a thing. He was very mad when he
read the erroneous report in his own
paper. 1t was more than he could
stand without saying things. He
called up the editor in charge dur
ing his absence and made it known
in quite forcible language that such
a thing must never happen again.
The temporary editor promised to be
good. Next time we will wait until
formal announcements are out.
Mr.. Woods was in attendance at
the meeting Of the State Press AS
sociation in session in Everett, FRI
day and Saturday. After visiting
with his brother in Tacoma over Sun
day and transacting business in Seat
tie Monday he will return home

Her Champion.
IOriginal.l

IOriginall
One evening in June, 1644, when the
army Of King Charles !, Of England
was marching to attack the parliamen-
tary forces at Marston moor, a Cavalier
riding along country road heard the
voices Of women singing a Puritan
hymn. As he proceeded the sounds
grew nearer till at last, reaching a
country home, he saw a group of wo-
men on the porch at their devotions.
Riding into the grounds, he threw him.
SELF from his horse and, mounting the
steps, asfed for some supper The wo-
men there were no men present: they
were all with Cromwell) paid no atten.
ton to the soldier till they had finished
their evening service, when girl Of
twenty invited him in and with her
own hands laid supper for him.
The Cavalier was John Hinchelwood
a younger son Of a nobleman, but
twenty years old, born soldier, and
knew no law save that Of the army.
While the girl was laying the supper
he was feasting his eyes upon her.
And we'll he might. Unlike the pre-
yailing type Of Engiishwomen. she was
a brunette. TALL willowy OF figure, with
large, lustrous eyes, while her face had
the finely chiseled beauty Of cameo
When the young soldier had finished
he arose from the table and said
"Silver and gold l have none, but
such as have / give unto you"
Throwing his arms about her. he
held her in tight grip ana kissed her
again and again. Then, leaving her,
the blood burning In her cheeks and
her eyes flashing upon him in anger,
he went out. mounted his horse and
rode away. 1t was not long before he
heard horse galloping behind him
and, turning. saw boy riding toward
him.
MY sister" said the boy, "sends this
word to you. You are coward to at
tack a woman, and she expects that
you viii return and give satisfaction
to one whom she may select as her
champion
Tell your sister, said the soldier,
''that l am expecting bigger fight
with the kings ,enemies, but when 1t
IL over, If / come out alive, win do
her bidding"
A few days later Hinchelwood,
wounded and exhausted with his part
in the battle at Marston moor, rode up
to the house Of the girl he had insult
ed. lie found her on the porch. AS
she looked upon him thus altered an
expression OF pity came into her face,
and soe said:
If you will apologize, sir. for your
brutal conduct sou may go unpun-
ished."
"That | will when ! have put a
sword hole through your champion.
IN crave your pardon on my Bonded
knee"

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
The Times Daily Short Story.

Is now o'clock AT you will find my
defender at the bridge half a mile up
the road. He win teach You how to
insult d weak woman"
II shall be pleased to kill him that
may step into his shoes as your de-
fender. And after | have killed him
will champion you against all corners"
The Girl turned away, and Hinchel-
wood left the house. When the clock
stood at 8 he was waiting at the
bridge. So exhausted was he that he
leaned against the rail for support.
His wound had broken out and was
bleeding afresh. Presently he saw
man coming on horseback. When he
drew near HlncheIwood noticed that
be wore a helmet with the visor down.
Are you the lady's Champion he
asked.
Il am"
Judging from your voice. you are
but boy. Take of that old fashioned
headpieee and let me see your face"
My father fought in this armor, and
choose to do the same"
Suppose refuse to fight an nm
known enemy"
Zone who would insult a woman
would likely take that ground
This was quite enough for Hfnehel-
wood. He drew his sword, his enemy
aismounted, and they took their posi-.
lions. Hinchelwood said.
Il conclude that you, being the la
iy's champion, are in her favor. Be
ing ambitious TO. be first In her favor
myself | shall brook no rivals"
These are fine words, sir. We shall
see whether you will make them good
I Hinchelwood made thrust, which
was clumsily parted by his opponent.
Indeed, from the first 1t was evident
that he was no swordsman. He stood
continually on the defense and never
made thrust till Hinchelwood asked
him If he was going to let himself be
Killed like a lamb Then the I'M
Enown's sword point struck Hinchel-
wood In the cuirass. At that moment
Hinchelwood saw the sky, the fields,
ais enemy, swim before him in circles,
ind he fell in faint.
( The stranger, throwing down his
WORD, uttered a cry and ran to his
hllen enemy and raised his head. at
he same time throwing up the visor of
I ais own helmet. Hinchelwood opened
as eyes and started. He was looking
nto the face Of the woman he had In
suited.
II have killed you" she moaned.
eKilled me! You couldn't kill frog.
It's my wound Of the battle received
from a giant Roundhead. But wnat
means this absurdlty? Thank heaven
rye not harmed you. Had killed you
I would have plunged my sword into

The girl lowered her head, tears
starting from her eyes. Tie man rails

Christian Science Contest
May be Taken
TO N. H. SUPREME COURT
Members of Coterie About Mrs. Eddy Ev-
identity Plan to Fight Action Brought
By Her Relatives Refuse as Yet
to Make Any Statement.

Concord, March latter series Of con
ferences here Saturday the leaders Of
the Christian Science church decided to
fight in every court Of the land, if nee
cssary, the suit brought by Mrs.
Eddy's son, G. w. Glover, Of South
Dakota, in which be asks for an ac-
counting as to her property, an iniunct
ion pending litigation, and receiver.
The leaders recognize the fact that
the suit really means tremendous fight
for the property held BY the Christian
Science church, which is conseryatively
estimated at s10,ooo,0O0.
While almost all this vast amount of
money was raised BY Mrs. Eddy, the
leaders claim that she no longer has any
right to it, inasmuch as, they assert, it
was transferred TO the church by valid
deed Of trust.
which Mrs. Eddy is possessed at the
present day is not worth over $4,000
The two moves most feared by the
church leaders, and the ones which viii
be fought the hardest, viii be any at
tempt to have receiver appointed, or
to have board Of physicians appointed
TO report on Mrs. Eddy's physical and
mentil condition.
To show 70 the world that Mrs. Eddy
is not the mental and physical wreck
which her son and counsel have de-
scribed her, she was taken out for a
drive today. II is also claimed for her
that her mind is as alert as it was 10
years ago.
As the result Of the conference to-
day it IS Thought probable that the de-
PENDANTS may raise Immediately the
legal questions involved in the proceed
ings as distinguished from the questions
OF fact.
These legal questions would 90 to the
supreme court for determination, and
the proceeding IN the superior court
v ould in the meantime be held mp.
This would avoid the necessity Of
Mrs. Eddy appearing in court in per
son. or heing Obliged TO give a deposi-
ton until the supreme court had render
ed an opinion. This opinion, ii in favor
Of the defendants, would quash the
Whole proceeding.
