FOURTH OF JULY MAIL
BRINGS LETTER FROM SISTER
MOURNED FOR DEAD 40 YRS

Yesterday was a glorious Fourth
of July for Philo J. Hecox, 807 East
Yampa St., for it brought him news
of a sister whom he and his family
had mouned for dead for the last
40 years. The sister, Mrs. Helen
NJ. Richards, is II years of age and
lives at Cedar Rapids, Ia. Yesterday s
mail brought letter from her to
Hecox, proving that she was his sis
ter.
When the letter carrier passed the
Hecox home, where Hecox lives a
lone, he handed Hecox the letter, re
marking in a jovial way, Here is
something you have been waiting for
for a long time
Hecox is IS years of age and has
lived in Colorado Springs for many
years. Forty years ago his sister,
Helen, was teaching school in Iowa.
During her vacation she went to Wis
it friends in Wisconsin. After a while
her family ceased to receive letters
from her but it was thought that she
had only been negligent until word
was received from her boarding

place in Iowa that her trunk was
still there. Efforts to locate her
were fruitless and at last the fam
| lily gave up the search, feeling that
she had been killed in an accident
Hecox discovered his first Chew to
his sisters Whereabouts in a paper
| from his old home in Wood county
Wisconsin. His family had been tax
| ing the paper since 1851 and when he
came to this city he subscribed for
it. The cleW was a letter headed
"Old Settlers, Attention" 1t was
signed H. M. Richards, Cedar Rapids
and asked for information concern
ing old settlers of that vicinity, es-
pectally of Horace HecoX, father of
the Colorado Springs man. In read
ing the letter Hecox was interested
to know who it was that wanted in
formation concerning his father
Thinking the writer was a man, He
cox wrote saying that he was the
eldest son of Horace HecoX. The
letter yesterday brought word that
H. M. Richards was his sister, Helen
Word of his sisters whereabouts
has been sent by Hecox to his mo-

WIFE COMPLAINS OF
HER LAZY HUSBAND
Frank 6rownrigg, of Hoquiam, Is the
First Victim Of the "Lazy Hus-
band" Law

MONTESANO, June 19.-Frank
Brownrigg of Hoquiam, was the first
man hauled in by the county under
the new "lazy husband" act. He is
accused in the complaint of refus-
ing and neglecting to support his
family.
The case has not yet been disposed
of but Prosecutor Stewart says that
with the consent of the judge, if
proper arrangements can be made,
the man will be put under bonds to
work and pay so much money week
ly to his wife.
Under the law the judges may fine
the man and pay the money to the
support of the family. In this case
there is nothing with which to pay
a fine. Or, the court may put the
prisoner under bonds to work and
turn over SO much money weekly TO
the family, which it is proposed to
do in this case. Or. the court may
sentence the man to term, during
which period the county commission
ers must find work for him and pay
the family a sum not in excess of
S1.50 day.
While the complaint is made by
the prosecuting attorney, in this case
it was originally made by the wife
and her friends.

STATE AUDITOR NOT
MAN FOR LICENSES
For Hunting and Fishing Cards, See
County Auditors-Question in
Salt Water Fish

OLYMPIA, June 19.-Many per-
sons do not seem to understand that
the new game law puts into the hands
of the various county auditors the
sole power to issue hunting and fish.
ing licenses, even the licenses good
FOR use in the entire state, and as
result there is not a day but that
the Office of State Auditor c. w.
Clausen does not receive several ap.
plicatiOns for state hunting and fish.
ing licenses. He wants it understood
that his department issues no Ii.
censes of any kind, fishing, hunting
liquor or auto. Before an alien can
carry fire arms, however, he must
obtain permit from the state audi
tor, which privilege will cost him
SIS. This permit has nothing to dc
with hunting and fishing licenses
however, for aliens can secure those
without a firearms permit, provided
of course, that the hunting is not to
be done with firearms.
One new point raised is whether
salt water fishing can be followed
without a special license. If not
then the fishermen who follow the
profession for living will have to
take out an additional license and as
they frequently operate in several
counties, they may have to take out
a state license. If this proves trus
then the new game law is going to
cause trouble. The matter will be
submitted to the attorney general fol
an opinion.
