LOOK FOR GIRL IN
MEMS CLOTHING

The police today are looking for
a girl in mems clothing. She is
Muriel Harrington, age IS, who
with Ollie Woodruff, age Is, es
capped late last night from the juve-
nile Jail. The matron allowed the
girls to sit up past the usual hour
to dress Christmas dolls for the
younger children under her charge
and when she answered a ring at
the door the girls went through a
window.
The Harrington girl was held as
a witness in particularly criminal
charge against Leo Bloch, the.
alter barker, who was bound over to
the superior court. The other girl
was under sentence to the House
of the Good Shepherd. Wearing
mems clothing was a failing of the

WOMAN MAKES
HARD FIGHT
FACES HUSBAND AND STATE
IN DECLARING SHE WAS UN-
JUSTLY CONFINED IN ASY-
lUM FOR INSANE.

The habeas corpus case of Mrs.
Grace Paukshen, the Govan,
Wash, woman who claims that
her husband had ''railroaded" her
to the Medical Lake insane hos
pital, was today continued until
some time In January The trial
of the case was set for tomorrow
before Judge Sullivan. but the at.
torneys we're engaged with other
cases and could not reach It by
that time.
The Paukshen case promises to
be holly contested. 1t is a three.
cornered fight, in which the WON.
an. her husband and the state of
Washington are the interested
parties. The woman is demanding
her release on the ground that her
commitment was secured by
fraud: that Judge W. 7. Warren
of Davenport, who found her in
sane. was imposed upon and treat.
ed with contempt: that she was
not insane at all. but had been
sent to the asylum as the result
of desire on the part of her hus-
band to get her out of the way
and secure control of the property
In which they were jointly inter-
ested.
The husband denies these allie
cations and cites the testimony of
the doctors who swore than Mrs.
Paukshen was insane. The state
of Washington appears by DR..
Semple, superintendent of the
Medical Lake hospital, and says
Mrs. Paukshen was legally COM
mitted, that she was insane when
committed and is still insane.
The hearing at which Mrs.
Paukshen was committed was held
at Davenport September "a last.
Drs. II. ]. Whitney and R. P.
Moore, r. A. Paukshen, the hus-
band. and Mrs. James McGovern
appeared for the husband, who
had instituted the proceedings and
were the only witnesses examined.
They said Mrs. Paukshen was af-
fiIcted with form of paranoial in
sanity, and -labored under inces-
SAINT fear of being poisoned by her
husband, and because of this fear
carried a revo1yer
