Charlie, if You Ever Needed Me- You Need Me
Now" Is Her Answer to Husbands Desire That
She Secure Her Freedom.

Charles f. Newcomb, convicted
murderer, though he faces a life
time in prison and though through
gubernatorial cIemency alone he
escaped the galIows, is among the
richest and most blessed of men.
"Ricner anu more blessed than
1 deserve to be-" he told me at
the county Jail today.
A woman loves him and vows
she will be true to him always.
That woman Is the young wife
whom he cast aside for 1.-THE I'm
chantress,r whose husband, Mar
tin Kyalshang. he slew, four
years ago.
He told her then, when the
first time she came to see him
in his prison cell, that II she di-
vorced him she would be justi-
fled. Her only answer was a
smile through tears, though later
when he again urged her, for her
own sake, to take her freedom
she said: Charlie, If you have
ever needed me, you need me

IN
NORTH END IS
bURGLAR|zEO

Daylight burglars yesterday en-
tered the home of w. Fl. Dickson,
FORMER chairman of the county
commissioners, 312 South Tacoma
avenue, ransacked the entire
dwelling and escaped with a sill
yer watch and o purse containing
" in silver, property of Lena
Christian, the maid.
The burglary occurred in q
fashionable portion OF the resi-
dence section. while the Dickson
family was away from home. A
rear window was broken and the
lock unfastened. Bureau draw
ers, closets and trunks were COM
pletely ransacxed, the contents
thrown promiscuously about the
floor. A search of the house
later developed the peculiar fact
that none of the family silver
ware or jewelry had been touched.
The maids room was the only
one where the thieves stole any
thing.

to die. The sentence was COM
muted to life Imprisonment. Mrs.
Newcomb again dared to hope
that before long her husband
would be restored to her. Quick
~ her hopes were dashed.
Charles Newcomb will never
be given a full pardon by me, "
said Governor Lister.
1t was then that Newcomb-a
strangely different Newcomb
from the weak, sensuous fool
who killed four years ago be-

him to kill-sent his wife a last
appeal.
She was young, he reminded
his wife, and life, good or i'll,
stretched long before her. She
had done what she could for him.
Let her now divorce him and seek
happiness while there was yet
time.
The answer was the answer he
expected, and he rejoices.
II shall go to Walla Walla," he
told me, .unafraid. / shall obey
the rules. And 1 believe that
after 1 don't know how many
years, shall succeed in convinc.

Hymn to the Night. s .
] heard the trailing garments Of the
Night
Sweep through her marble halls.
I saw her sable skirts all fringed with
From the celestial walls!.
I felt her presence, by it's spell of
might,
Stoop DER me from above;
The calm. majestic presence Of the
Night,
As Of the one I love.
I heard the sounds of sorrow and
delight,
The manifold, soft chimes,
That fill the haunted chambers of the
Night b.
Like some old poets rhymes.
Ny spirit drank repose;
The fountain Of perpetual peace flows
From those deep cisterns flows.
o holy, Night, from thee I learn to
bear
What man has borne before!
Thou layest thy fingers on the lips Of
And they complain no more.
Peace! Peace! Oresteslike. I breathe
this prayer!
Descend with broad winged flight,
The welcome, the thrice-prayed for,
the most fair.
The best loved Night!
