YAKIMA INDIAN GIRL.
Early Days in Washington With
Scenes Laid About the Columbia.

A Yakima Indian girl with the po-
etic name of Singing Bird is the
heroine of a novel dealing with WASH
ngton in the fifties by Mrs. Ada
Woodruff Anderson of Seattle, soon
to be published by Little, Brown g.
Co.. of Boston. This is Mrs. Ander-
sons second novel, her Heart of the
Red FRS" with the scene around
Olympia, published last year, as we'll
ern setting, having made for her many
friends among the reading public.
Mrs. Anderson's literary career has
been unusual in that instead of be-
ginning as a young girl to send man
uscripts to the publishers, she waited
until she was a grandmother. Her
own life and observations have fur
nished material for many a story of
the Pacific Northwest. Born in China
some fifty years ago, the state of
Washington has been her home since
girlhood. The plot of her first book
was made up largely of actual ex-
periences of her own and of charac-
ters fashioned after men and women
who had come under her personal
observation. She tells a love story
we'll and her descriptions of natural
scenery are wonderfully fine and true.
The events of the new story take
place in the Puget Sound country and
the plains of the upper Columbia,
whose life, atmosphere and scenery
no
not historical novel, the story hinges
on conditions in the Pacific North
west in the fifties, after the territory
of Washington was parceled from old
Oregon, and at the close of the joint
occupancy treaty, before the with
drawal of the Hudson Bay company
from Fort Nisqaully.
francesca, Singing Bird the
daughter of the commandant of an
American garrison near Fort Mis-
qually, and a Yakima maiden, whom
in his youth he had espoused accord
ing to Indian custom, had been found
with her mother, who had persisted in
the snow, by Pere la Framboise, G
Jesuit priest, who took care of an6
educated her. Francesca rides to the
country of the Yakimas and learn:
her fathers name, but he, having
married a woman of his own race
denies his Indian child.
The story eliminates in the Indiar
attack on Seattle, when it is estimated
that at least a thousand Kl.ckitat
marched from eastern Washington

FARMER KILLS AN
OUTLAW TERROR
Many Times Murderer, Negro Has
Been Hiding in Swamps to
Evade Vigilantes.

SWAINSBORO, Ca, May S.-With
a well placed shot Harvey burden
ended the career Of Allen Bush at
noon today, killing the notorious ne
gro, who has caused mild reign of
terror In this county for over two
months, and during that time has been
in hiding in the swamp with his
death threats hanging over several
white men.
The killing occurred at Mr.. Burdens
farm near Graymont, at a time when
it is believed Bush was stalking Mr..
sat at dinner. His would-be victim,
however, was ready, got the drop, and
sent his bullet through Bush's body.
That ended the fight and the chase
for the negro.
Bush, it is asserted has been respon-
sible for several murders and has at
tempted several assassinations within
the last few months. He has been
hiding in the swamps of Fifteen Mile
creek but, came out today, it is
thought, because he believed a great
many of the farmers would be away
from home attending the session of
the superior court here.
He had sworn he would kill Dur
den for the part the latter had taken
in the efforts to arrest him, and 1t is
probable that he was trying to carry
out this threat when he met his death
