To emphasize his sensations he

The great table was bought, the last

oddly assorted lots. 1t was during

BUT DEATH CAME
 SUDDENLY

Death came suddenly and all unexpected by his friends to Charles Hollis last night about nine o'clock. He was fish cut ter in the employ of the Salmon Packing company and had been ailing for the past couple of days or so. Tuesday he acted as though he was mentally un- balanced and his friends de- cided that 1t was best for him to move out of the cabin he had occupied next to the cable Of- flee so that somebody could keep track of him, and he was moved upstairs over the Cab met. His condition did not improve. however, and arrange ments were made last evening to move him over to the Hos pital at ten o'clock last night, but at nine o'clock he breathed his last. The dead mans rel atives, a mother and brother, reside in Tacoma and have been notified of his death.

ACCUSED WOMAN
 C0LLAPSES

Freeport. New York, July 10 When taken to her cell ln the county jail last night, Mir. Carman. who is accused Of shooting Mrs. Louise Baily, col lapsed, and today Is nervous wreck. Doctors were called in and she was removed. to the hospital ward. AS the result of her condition all action in the case is suspended. The prosecution while it has a good case is not very sanguine owing to the fact that practically all the evidence is circumstantial and inferential. It is known that Mrs. Carman was very jealous Of her husband and had had a dictaphone installed secretly so that she could hear what went On in his private consultation room, but actual evidence of the kind to, con- vince the minds of the average jury is lacking.
