UN EVIDENCE
OF SONS
Late Seward papers are filled
Kith tho gruesome testimony in
:onnection with the murder of
lira. A. E. McLean by; her husband
n Nushagak in 1916.
The children in the family were
he chief witnesses in the case and
t was largely upon their own tes
Imony that McLean wa,s sentenced
;o serve 20 years in the peniten
Jary.
The Seward Gateway says:
"After a most dramatic scene, in
vhich Attorney Ray made a strong:
jlea for leniency and Judge Brown
loindemned the urisoner at the bar
!or building up a defense upon a
leliberat© falsehood, the court,
it two o'clock toils afternoon, sen
:enoed A. E. McLean, former Gov
2 rn lilt'I1L. BCIITOl >vauiii, -W . -
i term of twenty years at McNeil Is
anti for the killing of his wife 'it
Musbagak, January 20, 1916."
>uring the (rial the following
iwful testimony was given by one
af the boys, and it is the gist of
:he whole evidence:
"Donald McLean, on taking the
stand, was frightened, and the U.
8. 'Attorney could not secure as
clear answers as were later given by
Hector, the younger brother.
"With much questioning, Donald
told how he and his mother had
attended a jvodding on January
20th, and after coming home his
father had arrived with Oscar Carl
son and demanded that she cook
supper. She refused, and according
to Donald, wag slapped by McLean
after which Carlson left. The boy
described the orgy of violence which
ended sometime before midnight.
He told hojv McLean ordered the
children to bed, and how he be
peeked out of the curtain around
the bed in which and his broth
er were lying and saw McLean
throw his mother on the floor, face
down, grab her by the hair, and
beat her face on the floor.
'"He git on hsr back and called
to me to get him a cigarette,'" said
Donald.
"'Then he got up and threw the
lamp at her. He put the fire out
with a blanket.'"
"The boy then told how a little
later his mother struggled into
the kitchen, and Dlinded by blood,
asked her husband to wash her face,
but he refused; how she washed
herself as best she could and when
h© refused to hel* her back to
bed, 'feeled' her way back to the
bed, only to be pushed off by Mc
Lean.
"At three o'clock in the morning,
the boy paid his father awakened
himv by yelling st him to get up
and clean the floor, saying he
would give two-bits. He did this
and then went back to bed, being
awakened again at five o'clock to
build a fire.
"He said he knew, his mother was
awake next morning because she
moved under a blanket."

PLACE FOB THE COWARD
Physical]}- fit men who wist to
serve Uncle Sam, but cannot do so
in the regular army because they
ere over the age limit, will now
be given a chance to do. their bit.
The American field ambulance ser
vice needs them.
Somehow the impression had
gone out that these jobs are fit
places for shirkers or men who
do not possess the courage of the
fighting men. But such is far
from being tha case, according to
.Wells Gilbert, Northwestern repre
sentative of the organization. Mr.
Gilbert Bayg that only men of grit,
brains and unquestioned courage ca
be of any benefit to the government
in the field ambulance service. As
an appetizer for those who like a
little tinge of the daring, Mr. Gil
bert says tbat the service, with
its limited number of men in the
field now, lost 10 men In two weeks
and had a score or more wounded.
The base bail game to be played
yesterday between tha "Angels of
Commerce" ajid the "Skagway Ter
rors" was postponed because of the
rainy weather au-i wet condition of
>t the field. Should the grounds
Iry ud sufficiently today, the game
ivin be called sometime this even
ing. The travell*# men aTe all old

MANY a miner who has
groaned and suffered
for years with hoots that
made his feet feel like a spe
cial punishment, has sudden
ly found that he has pretty
good feet after all, when he
wears "IIIPRESS" Boots.
Just the other day we got a let
ter from a man "Inside"telling us
he hadn't had boot comfort for
years until he tried "HIPRESS."
There isn't another boot made
like "KIPRESS." It's welded
into one piece without a seam and ^
it outwears any other boot on the
