SPOKANE. Wash. June 23.-Fraall Jones. husky rancher of Columbia county. south of Spokane, has Ursus of Quo vadis'' fame stepping side ways in an effort to retain his grasp on the laurel wreath of fame as a re- suit of a tussle with a maddened COW, which charged a throng. including many women and children. during a parade by the Ancient Order of United Workmen at Dayton, Washington.
 Jones made the attack when the animal plunged. gaining holds on both horns.
 The struggle was a terrific one and the rancher was lifted off his feet several time. However, he twisted and tugged. and finally put the cows head to the ground, holding it there until Harvey Price, a. special police man. dispatched the animal with two rifle bullets into the brain.
 The animals final effort was des- perate. but Jones was master and the COW died with the rancher clinging to it's horns.s
 The pitched batle between man and animal was witnessed by several thou, sand persons, attracted by the cele- bration of the Workmen's day, and they acclaimed him the hero of the Co- lumbia county. Jones declines to talk about the feat. saying he simply did what any man ought to do under sim liar circumstances.

ST. JOHn'S DAY HAS
 RAIN SIGNIFICANCE Mexicans of Roman Catholic Faith Firmly Believe In
 Strange Old Teaching

Raia is due today. due in Bisbee. but more especially so in Sonora. At least this is the firm belief of the de- vout Roman Catholics among our Mexican neighbors. for today is St. Johns day.
 The Sonoran belief is that on this Saints day, which they invariably eel ebrate, the good St. John will cause the clouds to gather so that the earth may be sprinkled and vegetation re- yived on the day upon which his memory is especially honored and his intervention most sought.
 It is just about this season of the year that the rains start in south ern Sonora. though sometimes they start a little earlier. and 1t is about Hermosillo and Guaymas, Alamos, Ma vaioa, Cumaripa and Buena Vista and in the YaQui river delta and valley where the belief is most sincere.
 What the day will bring for Bisbee is doubtful, for though it clouded up last evening the clouds did not seem to be Of the rain bearing variety.

Busy With FsmIly's Affairs.


 The plaintiff alleges that her ser vices included. besides the persuaG ing of the policy king to alter his will. the nursing of one of Mrs. Adams daughters when she was sick in a private hospital in this city, the reconciling of Al Adams with his wife after they had been estranged the watching of the Adams sons and daughters for the mother, the invcs tigation Of divorce suit in which one of the daughters was a party and plenty of general advice to Mrs. Adams as confidante. All the talk about her having "conned" Mrs. Adams into believing that she had mysterious grip on the future was every bit bosh-bosh. Mrs. Adams gave her the paper for services she had rendered in the past. Further more. she was not a clairvoyant, she having quit that business long ago. Counsel for the widow was inclin ed to think that Mrs. Gilbert had been amply paid for all of her earth ly services. regardless of the note. He estimated that Mrs. Gilbert had got $14,00O or 315.OO0 from the de- fendant since the acquaintanceship with Mrs. Adams began.
 Mrs. Adams met Mrs. Gilbert in 1900 through woman friend, with whom she (Mrs. AdamsD was living. This woman friend, so the Adams lawyers say. used to call at Mrs. Gilberts place in West Forty-seventh street to get the right dope" on the horses. The friend advised Mrs. Adams to carry her domestic trou- bles to the palmist. She did; and from that time on, it is alleged, Mrs. Adams was duly impressed with the dangers that were constantly hang ing over her head

POLICY KINGS
 WIDOW SUED
CIairvoyant Demands $30, 900 From Wife of Al Adams
 For Services Rendered
CLAIMS SHE INDUCED
 CHANGING OF LAST WILL

NEW YORK, June 23.-Mrs. Albert J. Adams, widow of -ae policy king who committed suicide after he had served his term in Sing Sing. is the defendant in a suit that has been brought by Mrs. Marguerite Gilbert. a palmist and clairvoyant, in the su- preme court, to compel payment of $39.000. which she alleges is due her on a promissory note.
 The plaintiff contends that the note was given by Mrs. Adams in consid. eration of many personal services extending over a period of eight years. one of them being the per. suading of Al Adams. shortly before his death. to alter his will in his wife's favor.
 Mrs. Adams admits having given the note. but denies that there was any consideration other than a prom ise on the part of Mime. Gilbert to exercise her mysterious powers to ward. of dangers that were impend- ing over the Adams family. After she had given the note Mrs Adams decided she could get along without the Gilbert spiritual aid, but the clairvoyant refused to give up the document. The case is being tried before a jury. and Mrs. Adams her self was the star witness today.
 The note which Mrs. Adams gave Vss dated January 9, 1901, and reads:
 q, Isabella " Adams, hereby ac- knowledge my indebtedness to Mar. guerite Gilbert for services rendered by her, for which I promise to pay her the sum of s30000, and in the event of my death. I hereby author ize and direct the payment of the same out of the funds Of my es- tate"

PRObERS
Former Executive and
Ex-Treasurer Mills
rlust Explain Ir.
regularities

{By United Press Leased Wire.)
OLYMPIA, May 8.-As the re-
suit of recent exposures of irregu-
larities in state offices, a campaign
of investigation has been started,
which is today expected to include
nearly every official at the capitol
and soem of those whose terms of
Office has expired.
At the present time the plans of
the legislative committee, made
public today, includes within its
scope an investigation of former
Governor Albert e. Mead, former
State Treasurer George d. Mills,
son-in-law of Judge M. j. Gordon
of Tacoma, and G. w. Claussen,
present state auditor.
The proposed investigation of
Mead and Mills is the outcome of
a cursory examination of the new
executive mansion. Mead and
Mills approved the payment of
$4,000 for this building, and the
committee Is alleged to have be-
come convinced that the building
could have been erected for half
that amount.
In addition to an investigation
in connection with the building of
the governors residence, former
Governor Mead will also be asked
to explain to the committee why
he allowed his name to be stamped
on former Adjutant General Ham,
ilton's vouchers without making
an effort to assure himself that
the state was getting value re-
ceived. Involved with Mead In
this matter is G. w. CIaussen,
who, as state auditor, passed on
the Hamilton vouchers without
giving them more than mere form
al attention.
1t is understood that Claussen
will also be required to- explain
certain matters in connection with
his alleged prolonged absence
from duty at various times.

TO-DAY
Fallen State Official,
Arraigned For Theft.
Waves Prelimi.
nary Hearing
(By United Press Leased Wire.

SBy United Press Leased Wire.
OLYMPIA, May S.-Ortis Ham
ilton, former adjutant general of
the state of Washington, was this
morning arraigned before Police
Magistrate Milton Giles on a
charge of embezzlement of state
funds. Hamilton pleaded not
guilty, waived examination and
asked that the case be immediate
ly transmitted to the superior
court for trial.
The little court room was pack
ed when Hamilton entered, but he
betrayed no recognition of any of
the spectators, He comported
himself in an abstracted manenr
and did not appear to be greatly
interested in the proceedings. His
affairs were looked afetr by
Judge Robinson.
Hamilton's bail still remains
fixed at $4,000 and from all that
can be learned he is no nearer
raising that sum than when he
was placed under arrest. After
his hearing Hamilton was return
ed to the county jail.
Hamiltons first night in jail
was spent in the office of deputy
sheriff where a bed was made for
him. This apparent favoritism
shown by the sheriff has wrought
up the people of Olympia and the
action of the sheriff is severely
criticised on every hand.
1t is asserted that the former
military officer is entitled to nc
more consideration than any other
prisoner awaiting trial.
