IS BACK AT THE OLD STAND
Panama Editor Has Uncovered the Cache
 Where the Hatchet Was Hid.

notify the marshal at Fairbanks. We have long maintained that some of the underlings of our Alaskan government partake of the nature of parasites, but we think that when something happens to one of these men who living that lonely life make it possible for these people to fatten on community that these people should be made to do their duty.
 We will venture to say that our au- thorities will find they have made q mistake to tell the Indians that they cannot be in town after s o'clock. It was an unwarranted unsuccessful at tempt to make failure of the enter tainment being held in Mr. Herrolds s building and on the face of it piece of spite work which merits the strongest kind of condemnation. In this connec- tion we wish to repeat that neither Mir. Herrold nor any other person, except the editor, is responsible in any way for what appears in this paper, and we wish to say once for all that we believe we voice the convictions of the whole peo- pie when we oppose this connection be- tween church and state in the town of Panama.
 It is not necessary that we should say anything of our late trip to Fairbanks, as results speak for themselves and the Fairbanks Times handled the matter far better than we could. We content our selves with the assertion that we can prove that Nautier told woodchoppers on his way down from Fairbanks that he would have the editor of the Citizen in shackles inside of 30 days Che then having the bench warrant with him), thus proving that it was the thinnest kind of an excuse to say that We at tempted to escape.
 From the men deputized by |. $. NdutltT to dsslsl zap ture of assailants of Mir. Fleming on the Kantishna, we received the following facts. When Nautier and the deputies reached the place of the shooting they were fired on. They promptly got out of sight, but instead of waiting around he proceeded down the river, where next morning Tansy and Swift were arrested, when the facts pointed out that the real men were above. In fact they must have gone overland, as their boat is still there. Such an unwarranted attempt of an officer to make name for himself speaks for itself
 Fleming was shot and seriously wounded in an attempt to rob him while he was coming down the Kan tishna in a small boat year ago. Tansy and Swift were charged with the crime. They were acquitted. An excellent rep utation enabled them to make a strong defense.-Ed. Yukon Valley News

GRAHAM PROPERTY
GOES TO The HEIRS

OLYMPIA, Wash. Jan. 16.-The
supreme court yesterday upheld the
lower courts in granting a judgment
in favor of the German heirs of Lou
Graham, a notorious Seattle wom-
an. who died 13 years ago leaving
$40 900 worth of property. Robert
Abram brought suit against the
state of Washington and King
county to have his deed to property
sold to the Graham woman set
aside on the grounds that she was
an alien and could not legally own
property in the United States. The
German heirs also brought suit. The
state sought to appropriate the
property on the alien exemption,
but its claim is held to be outlaw
ed. The deeds were upheld on the
ground that no contest was made
during the Graham woman's life
time.

A SLIGHT MlSUNDERSTA

Tom Blake was a lawyer whose
idea of the proper cultivation OF
muscle was more profound than his
knowledge of the law.
He did not greatly relish the case
to which he had been assigned by
his senior partner; that of spending
few days at the home of Fred
erick Vanvoorst, who had become
enamored of a certain charming
widow, Mrs. Mackenzie by name.
Tom was ostensibly the guest of
the younger Vanvoorst. at whose
solicitation the piece of detective
work was being done.
What was Blake's surprise to
meet upon his arrival at the beau
tiful home two old acquaintance.
One was Mrs. Mackenzie, formally
Laura Moret, of whose marriage he
had completely forgotten. The
other was Kate Griffin, with whom
Tom had often been almost at the
point of falling in love. He had
been restrained, however, by the
knowledge her father was wealthy
while he had nothing
At the first opportunity Mrs. Mac
kenzie sought Tom and asked why
he had come.
"Why. when I am trying to
change my life-when | have some
chance of making some one happy
and doing little good, must it all
be spoiled? Tom, you used to like
ME a little. Please let me alone.
You have heard, of course, that
Kenneth and l are divorced. and |
have not told Mr.. Vanvoorst yet.

Not many days after this Tom
met Mrs. Mackenzie again and she
broke forth with: 20

promised me? You saw Mr.. Van,

do you mean to say that you
have not told him-anything of
that-that Mr.. Mackenzie is, not
dead?"
THAT is exactly what | mean. In
deed, I would not tell him that
there ever was such a man as Ken
meth Mackenzie. Why should |
meddle?"
Forgive me-" she said. "T ought
to have known you better and to
have believed in you, but l have so
few friends. Someone has been
telling Vanvoorst everything. He
told me this morning that it was
all over; that he had been foolish;
that he fears | did not cOnfide in
him as | should have; that our
lives have been very different, and
a quantity of such things. In fact"
with a suspicion of her old manner,

That night at dinner Frederick
Vanvoorst announced his engage

OLD CRIME FINDS HIM.

ELLSWORTH, Wis, Jan. 16.-
Michael Lilo, indicted for the muir
der of John Isaac at Prescott, Wis,
but who was discharged by the
court, has confessed that he muir
dered Marie Labrizzi in New York
in May, 1902. Lilo said that he had
paid Miss Labrizzi's transportation
to America on the promise that she
would marry him. She failed to
keep her part of the contract and
was killed by her lover. Lio's con-
fession solves the mystery of the
murder which so confused the New
York police.
