A letter just rctcived by the Bellingham
Day Mad from a citizen of Orcas states
that George Phillips was shot and killed
at the lime kiln at tint place on last Tues
day, the 24th ins;., by his wife, an Indian
wo'man. The cause of the deed is not
stated, but as poor George is generally
known throughout thu Sound as a pretty
"hard case," no doubt the woman lud
some provocation. She Is under arrest
and awauini; trial. We axxait further de
velopments in the case.

to or "0 miles above the mouth of that
noble stream, which is only sreond in
volume and current to the majestic Co

and five or six logging camps; is rich in
mineral resources and will probably ere
long have gold and silver mines in suc
cessful operation, as both have been dis
covered and there are fair prospects, Tho
agricultural, mineral and timber resource,
of that vast region will eventually become
a source of admiration and wonder to
