TO SAVE WIFE FROM JAIL
Husband Anxious to Avert Dis
grace from Young Son

CHICAGO, Sept. 20-To save his wife
from prison, Issac R. Warren plans
to plead guilty to a charge of having
used the mails to defraud through a
fake" matrimonial bureau and ac-
cept sentence without making a de-
fense.
Warren and his wife, Kate Warren,
were indicted more than year ago.
Shortly after his indictment, Warren
fed from the city, going to Buffalo,
where he operated a similar scheme.
He was arrested by the New York
state authorities and was given a
years sentence.
On his release from prison a week
ago, a deputy United States marshal
arrested him on a fugitive warrant,
and brought him to Chicago.
For the sake of our 4-year- old boy,
I don't want my wife to face the dis
grace of a criminal trial." Warren de-
clared yesterday in the United States
marshal's office Il am willing to plead
guilty if it will save her from punish
ment."
Warren and his wife will be ar
raigned in Judge Lands court today.

GLOBE, Ariz., Sept. 20.-Hiding near
Holbrook. l25 miles north of here, and
practically surrounded by posse
which has been on their trail since
the murder of Frederick Kibbs and A.
n Hillpot near Fort Apache last
Thursday. the capture of James steele
and William Stewart, fugitiVes from
Justice on the charge of one OIL the
most heinous murders ever committed
in Gila county, seems assured.
The two men will apparently be cap
tured within the next few hours, ac-
cording to advices received here. The
posse headed by Sheriff j. H. Thomp-
son is so close on the heels of the out
laws that they have been forced TO
abandon their horses. They are prac-
tically without food and are travelling
in an arid section of the country. 1t
is not believed that even their expert
knowledge of the country through
which they are fleeing will save them,
as expert Indian trailers who have
seen years of service in man-huntlng
form part of the posse.
Both Steele and Stewart are eX-
soldiers and have the reputation or
being bad men," The murder of
Kibbe and Hillpot with which they
are charged, was so utterly Wanton
in it's nature that it is believed the
IuBlLlNeS Will lOL 5lfC III HANiiON1 -
death struggle.
Late advices from Holbrook state
that the posse arrived there at 4
o'clock this afternoon secured fresh
horses and doubled back toward the
open country, with the intention of
heading off the fugitives before they
reach the railroad. Dispatchers along
the Santa Fe railroad have been mott
fed to inform all trainmen and rail-
way officials of the mems movements,
If seen, and it is not believed they can
escape.
Kibbe and Hillpot were murdered in
an abandoned stage station, where
they were lodged with Steele and
Stewart. Evidence secured by the
coroner shows that Kibbe was killed
instantly and Hillpot shot and killed
after a superhuman struggle against
unusual odds. The coroner's jury lays
the crime to Stewart and Steele.

SOCIAL SEASON ABSORBS
GOSSIPS OF WASHINGTON
Mrs. Charles E. Hughes ard Mrs.
Claude A. Swanson ReCog-
nized as Leaders

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Amid all
the absorbing speculation in which
Washington is indulging anent the
coming social season there is the
pleasant certainty that the capital city
will be able to claim as it's own for the
coming winter at least two distIn-
guished women in whom society is now
much interested. OF these Mrs. Charles
E. Hughes is comparatively a stranger
here, while the other, Mrs. Claude A.
Swanson, whose husband succeeds the
late Senator Daniel of Virginia, has
already a large acquaintance and
many friends here.
AS the wife of a supreme court JUS
ticc Mrs. Hughes will, it is believed,
find herself amid congenial surround
ings The court" families have their
own distinct place, an enviable one, be
it said, in the many cliques and sets
which go to form Washington's sim
plex society and in which they are
acknowledged leaders. One of the four
state receptions at the White House,
the second in, the series, is annually
given in honor of the justices of the
supreme court and their families, and
by an old and honored Washington
tradition Monday is set aside as the
"at home" day of the justices wives.
Following the reception in their honor
at the White House there is q dinner
at which they are also the guests of
honor.
Mrs. Swansons social triumphs have
been many in Washington. AS Miss
Lizzie Lyons, the handsome Virginia
girl was a great belle here. Miss Lyons
eyes were big and blue, her hair was
golden and her figure irreproachable
Added to these charms she had plenty
of vivacity and delightful southern
arI1innPd she dealt
havoc with many masculine hearts
both in Washington and Richmond be-
fors she bestowed her own on young
Representative Claude A. Swanson, the
baby OF IS years ago.
She was married in Washington and a
southern gathering con-
graduated the happy couple.

WHALES TONGUE A DELICACY
ASSOCIATED Press)

NEW YORK, Sept 2O.-Even shoe
strings look good to hungry men in
the arctic. especially if their food
caches have been raided and ruined
by polar bears and wolverines.
Advices received by Herman c. Bum
pus, director of the Museum of Nat
ural History, from DIR. Rudolph An
derson and Vihljahlm Steffansson, who
left New York for the frozen north in
May, 1908, show that the two scientists
have suffered privations which made
meals of leather and oil seem luXuries.
The -Steffansson party
which is making extended ethnolog-
ical and biological collections on the
shores of North America for the mu-
scum, has Travelled 400 miles east of
Mackenzie river, through regions
hitherto untraversed by explorers.
In the advices just received, the ex-
plorers tell of a trying journey up the
Horton river. Six persons were in the
party, and they carried provisions for
two days. The trip took fifteen days
and the hunting was bad. The party
ate whale tongue, which, owing to its
fibrous nature and to the presence of
sea salt, was very sickening.
HAD LEATHER DIET
When the tongue was gone they ate
sealskins, deerskins, sole leather and
the tough skin laces used on their
snowshoes. Then there was seal oil,
about q teaspoonful a day for each
man, consumed to keep away the raw
ages of hunger. 1t was taken with
deerskin or feathers, as few of the
men could stand it straight"
Finally, somebody found a partly
eaten carcass of a caribou, which sup
piled them meat for three or four
meals. When it was gone, the men
lived on "whitefsh" blubber, taken
straight" and a spoonful each of
portions of the caribous stomach taken
with oil at each meal. The stomach
contained a peck of well-masticated
moss and grass. 1t was found of little
nutritive value, but did wonders. in
helping the members of the expedition
to eat the oil.
The party reports that the scientific
results of their work thus far have
been satisfactory.

state, a platform endorsing President
Taft only for good intentions and
laudin9 Senators Dolliver and Cum.
Minis for their fight in securing
changes in the railroad and postal
savings bank bills, the Iowa insurgents
dominated the state convention.
The insurgent majority rejected the

man w. P. Hepburn. which Landed
Taft and the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill.
but refused to remove from the state
central committee the five standpat
members. as some of the militant in
surgents wished.
There was a dramatic scene in the
convention hall when the two reports
from the resolutions committee were
read. George M. Curtis presented the
majority report. which the insurgents
cheered while the standpat element
remained silent.
When Colonel Hepburn read his mi
nority report endorsing Taft the
younger element thought it was hu.

fires, Assistant District Forester Sill.

1T doesn't seem now that it will be

fires are all out. We will take up the
matter with the officers at Fort Mis-.

reach some understanding at once.
1T is fairly quiet all along the fire
lines and we are sending in no more
men. Unless an emergency arises it
will not be necessary to call on the
army
