RUNAWAY WIFE
RELINQUISHES
RIGHT TO CHILD

by United Press Leased Wire
PORTLAND, Ore, June A.
Proceedings begun in the juvenile
court to have the five-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Emma Manche
of Tacoma declared delinquent,
were Withdrawn yesterday be-
cause of an agreement between
and his wife, whereby she
will not be prosecuted for clipping
with S. B. Phillips and consents
to relinquish all claims to the
child.
E. j. Manche, the father, has
returned to Tacoma with the girl,
after closing the bargain with his
wife. Manche followed his wife
and child from Tacoma. She
placed the child in a public insti-
tuition.

When woman gives you "a

rolls the whole bolt. Mas was
vexed with me last evening be-
cause l couldn't remember a word
the minister said in his. Sunday
sermon. When I told her he
couldn't remember 1t himself, that
he had it all written down for him
SO he could read it off, she went
up in the air and handed me all
sorts of packages-my, 1t looked
like seance at a spiritualists'
meeting where the musical instru-
ments and the ladies in the white
wings float around without any
visible means of support-but
want to tell you there are worse
mothers than mine who don't come
around after they've blown off
steam and give you ten cents and
a kiss and tell you to go to see the
candy girl and start something.
Speaking of starting things, what
have you planned for your summer

summer or do you wait for fall?
We are unpacking vacation outfits
now. A little early, but you may

FORMER ADJUTANT GENERAL
TO RECEIVE HELP FROM
HIS RELATIVES.

OLYMPIA, June 4.-Ortis Ham,
ilton, at the request of his attor-
neys, was granted until Monday
next to enter his plea to the
charge of embezzlement of state
funds, when he was brought into
court. The rumors heretofore
made that his immediate family
and friends had deserted him
were shown to be erroneous. as
Boyd Hamilton, brother, cashier
of the Occur d'Alene Bank & Trust
company at Occur d'Alene, Idaho,
and DIR. A. s. Stunt, the husband
of sister of Hamilton and a prac-
ticing physician at Colfax, formerly
member of the medical board of
this state, were present with Ham,
fltons' attorneys and had q long
visit with the prisoner.
]. w. Robinson. attorney for
Hamilton, said the question of
bonds had been settled long since,
and that Gen. Hamilton will be
at liberty on bonds when / con-
slider conditions favorable. There
is nothing further to be said ex-
cept that Gen. Hamilton's imme-
diate family and very many per-
sonal friends have stood by him

On Monday the defense will
first move to have the indictment

at the Park Methodist church last

clared the council had authority

strap hangers also discussed the
shortcomings of the line.
A petition to the council asking
that something be done to get SER

ready 10 install a mill this summer.
The tunnel, when completed, will be
over 700 feet long, and will give the
Frisco people q depth Of 45O feet on
the ledge.
