Actually he was merely a blind for
the reforming element. Lee had
shown up the double game that
Saunders was playing, and thus
aroused the wrath of the boss.
Perhaps he would not have nerved
himself to risk his whole future on
this desperate game but for pretty
Elsie Sinclair, the daughter of one Of
the old settlers. In his day Sinclair
had been a power in Pathways, but

Immediately the paper had begun |
going downhill.
It was not that the circulation had |

But a paper cannot live on circula-

cluster.

DOOMED JAPANESE
 MURDERER DONATES
 MONEY TO LIBRARY

O. Itow. Japanese who is under death sentence for the murder of Frank Dunn at Dundas Bay cannery July. 1912 has given pathetic proof of his loyalty to his native land by donating to the Juneau public library $5 or the meagre sum of S7.35 which was taken from his pockets by che marshal at tho time of his incarcera- ton ID Che Federal iail ln Juneau
 The gift IS made in honor of Che celebration in his own country of the Nlikado's formal accession to the throne of Japan. The following com munication was received this morning at the marshars office:
 T beg to make trouble to you
 some thing. but please manage
 this ] should like Go contribu-
 ton S5 for In Juneau Library as
 you know Japanese Mikado ac-
 cession of ceremony held today
 wish to do this and memory on
 myself (signed O. TOW"
 At first glance a thoughtiess person might be inclined to smile at the quaint wording of the note. but when one recalls that the man who makes the gift is facing the dark shadows of the gallows for O crime he has c0m- miited the pathetic side of the dona- tion must be apparent
 Case Still Unsettled.
 The case of the United States against o. How has been In the courts for a long time He was found guilty in the district court here and was sentenced to death by Judge Peter D. Overneld A few days af- ter tb sentence was pronounced J.. r. Cobb. as attorney for Itow appeal ed the case to the Circuit Court in San Francisco. The decision of the district court was affirmed by the Ap- pellate Court and the matter was then carried to the Supreme Court which held that it had no jurisdiction.
 Mir. Cobb then filed in the Circuit Court motion for a rehearlng of the case. This matter was decided In San Francisco on November of this year. at which time the motion for rehearing was denied.
 It is understood that an eiort will be made to get the matter before the Supreme Court a second time and that in the event that effort fails a communication of sentence will be re- auested asking that the penalty of death bo changed to life imprison- ment.
 Itow's gift of S5 was delivered to the library today by the marshals office.
