After having taken testimony in
the case of the little child Hattie
Martin, who was found to be afflicted
with a venereal disease by local phy
sicians, and which was learned that
she was outraged at Yakima some
tinyB ago, Judge Henry this afternoon
adjourned court until 9:30 Monday
morning when it Is thought that the
mother of the child, who is now in
Pendleton, will be here. The mother
will be placed on the stand and it is
thought several other things bearing
indirectly on the case will be brought
to light. The child will no doubt be
sent to the Children's Home.
The first witness called was the lit
tie girl, Hattie Martin. It was one
of the most pitiful sfghts ever before
a court In Union county. Only ten
years of age and naturally frail, her

Called here by the attractive stor
les told by boost literature working
its way to Colorado, F. W. Sherman,
a politician and lrrlgationlst of Jules
burg, Colorado, is here today looking
over the valley. He has been touring
the Northwest Irrigation districts, and
having heard through literature sent
out by the club, of the coming irriga
tion project here, he Btopped off on
his way, to carefully Inspect it Real-
estate men took the stranger over the
valley today and as he saw many
propositions which appeal to him, he
may decide to purchase land here.
He comes from a region where ir
rlgatlon Is carried on much the same
as it Ib to be here. The farmers and
water users own the reservoir and
conduct all business in connection
with it. The cost is about the same
as the local proposition.

frequent Intervals of weeping, she told
her story bravely and a moat re
volting story it was.
It seems that she had been living
with her mother and step-father as
far back as she could recollect. Her
own father Is seperated from her
mother and she does not know much
about him. She Btates that they had
been traveling from one place to an
other while her father worked at
anything he could get to do, mostly
In saw mills. While they were living
in North Yakima the father and mo
ther went out one night to a dance
and left the little child alone. She
states thattwo boys between the ages
of 18 and 19 entered and attacked
her and despite the feeble efforts of
the child, accomplished their das
tardly purpose. She gave the name
of one of the boys as Harvey Paris
and the other, all she knew was that
they called him "Nig." She Btates that
she would know the men If she could
see them again. She said that she told
her mother about this as soon as she
returned from the dance but all that
the mother did was to tell a neighbor
and apparently let the matter drop as
if it was of little consequence. She
failed to tell her step-father anything
about the matter.
The next witness called was Chief
of Police Ray burn. He stated that he
knew of the little child's mother,
having watched her on several occals
ions. He stated that he saw her leave
the Japanese and Chinese quarters
here on several occasions and that he
had seen her on the streets as late as
midnight.
The next witness was Dr. Richard
son and he stated tnat ne ana ura
Riggers and Upton had made an ex
amination of the girl and they had
decided that she was afflicted with, a
veneral disease. The next was Mrs
Ward, a woman often seen with Mrs.
Wrleht. the Klrl's mother. From her
it wna learned that the
mother was not fit to rear the child
Dr. Blggers was then called to the
Btand and corroborated Dr. Kichard-
son's testimony.
The mother of the child, Mrs
Wright, was not in attendance at the
trial, as she is in Pendleton. Her
la Mavnard. being the
daughter of a citizen of Wallowa
county. She first married a man by
the name of Martin, but arterwaras
they became separated and she was
divorced and married Mr. Wright
They have lived In Nampa, Bauer
City, Pendleton. Walla Walla, Yakima,
Ta Grande and several other towns in
the Northwest. They claim that they
made their living by Wright working
nt odd jobs, but from the money they
seem to spend u iooks as u mere

they obtained money.
