1t is believed that Haggard came
back to Pullman in hopes of finding
this woman here, but if this is true
he was mistaken. He worked in the
Tribune Office, boarded at the Alton
hotel and a few recognized him as
the former convict, but these kept
their council in hopes that he had
reformed. These hopes were vain,
however, for Haggard had proven
himself a man with a criminal nature
and the good in him is overshadowed
by the bad. 1t seems he can't be
good.
Steals at Lewiston
After leaving the peni tentiary Hag-
gard went to Lewiston, Idaho. There
he secured employment as a waiter
in the restaurant kept by Mrs. A. P.
Eek, and known as Mothers
Kitchen" Mrs. Eek trusted him and
when she was called east last Dec
ember left him in charge of the place.
He left there soon after and is charg
ed with having stolen more than
5000 and having forged orders on
her, which he cashed He is also
charged with fraud in connection
with some advertising deal. Where
he went after leaving Lewiston is
not known, but he showed up here
and went to work for the Pullman
Tribune. |. M. Bedell, who knew
Haggard we'll when he was waiting
table at the Artesian hotel and who
saw him on several occasions while
he was in the penitentiary, recog
nized him at Lewiston, where he
waited on Mr.. Bedell when the latter
boarded at Mothers Kitchen" Il
did not give him away for | thought
he was trying to do better" said Mr.
Bedell Il saw him here at Pullman
and did not know of his theft at
Lewiston until lately. ] was here
when the deputy sheriff came after
him, but he got a tip and skipped
out. Mrs. Eek thinks that he got at
least $3.50 from her while he had
charge of her business at Lewiston.
1t is thought that Haggard will
soon be captured. He does not seem
to have sense enough to keep out of
trouble or to escape after commit
ting a crime. Although he has
criminal record in the three north
western states of the nation, he pre-
fers to remain here and appears to
make little effort to escape after
committing a crime. When he was
in jail at Colfax he was wanted in
half a dozen places in Oregon for
various crimes and il was shown
that he had served Jail sentences in
Portland and short term in the Ore
gon penitentiary. If he is caught
again he will probably get life
sentence under the confirmed Grim
inal law, which makes a second con-
yiction on felony charge a life SEN
tence If the judge so sees fit.
Haggard is a good printer, a splen-
aid waiter and a general handy
man." but his criminal propensities
seem to control him and he will prob
ably spend the greater part of his
remaining years behind prison walls.

ports that three times as many men

Jail this spring as applied for a nights

A number of reasons are advanced
for the situation. In the first place
Webster City's jail is a comfortable
place. It may be that it has reputa-
ton in trampdom as being one of the
best hotels" hereabouts. 1t is thought,
however, that scarcity of work in the
east has more to do with the condi-
ton than anything else.
Housewives about the city have
noted The condition, as they are hav-
