Tracy Never Slept.
Of his treatment by the convict
Anderson said:
"During all the time I was alone
with Tracy he. never closed an eye,
but watched me all the time. He
acted queer some times. On different
occasions I expected him to kill me.
He would get surly and threaten me,
"but at other times he was good-natured
and laughed and joked about
the chase after him. lie sam nis
pursuers were a lot of damned fools;
and that he could get away any time'
lie wanted to. He nevjer strucK me
during all the time I was with him,
but he threatened to do it many
times."

Tracy Is a Josher.
"While at the Gerald home Tracy
saw a newspaper man going down
the track, not 5 feet from the house,
and told the women that there was
the posse's advance agent. Ho in
timated that he was fleeing not from
the posse, but from the army of news
paper men who were pursuing nun in
orrfpr to eet an interview. And this
was while the guards were stationed
all about the house. Before leaving
the building to make his escape ne
.vp. tho women several mementos.
During the time he was with them
Tracy frequently assured them that
thev had nothing to fear from him.
saying that he had never hurt a wo
man in his life.
KNEW TRACY AS COWBOY.
Snohomish Citizen Tells of the Des
perado's Early History.
There is a young man in Snohomish
who rode the range with Tracy in
Wyoming in 1896. At that time they
were about 100 miles south of Raw'
lins, and were in the habit of going
to dances.
Tracy was then looked upon as a
rather wild lad, but otherwise .was an
ordinary farmer boy who had drifted
to tho range.
In 1897, Tracy and another lad
drifted over into Utah, where they
ribbed a store of a few articles, in
cluding some pocket-knifes. For this
Tracy got one year in the peniten
tiary, but succeeded in making his
escape from the prison after being in
carcerated seven months.
He was located in Colorado and his
pal was hung to the end of wagon
pole. Tracy was captured a little la
ter and taken to jail, but again es
C-iI?S2 about the time of the blowing
up of the Maine.
From that time on his movements
were unknown to the Snohomimsh
man, until his Portland escapade. He
says Tracy was always an excellent
shot and considerable of a daredevil
before he became an outlaw.
Tracy to Newspaper Men.
Tracy left at the Gerald house
Wednesday a special message to
newspaper men, as follows:
"The newspaper men have given
me a fair deal, except when they said
I killed .Merrill treacherously. Mer
rill tried to kill me, but I saw him
and got him first. The newspaper
men are always the first to arrive
and the posse follows."

trie road.
This was to give the court an mea,cr)
of just hQW the railroad built along
the county road would affect travel
before final action was taken on the
franchise. In speaking of the route
the court said this morning that after
looking over the ground it had come
to tho conclusion the road could be
built with little damage to the coun
ty road and without interfering with
travel by land.
The final details have been settled
on by the court and tomorrow morn
ing the franchise will either be al
lowed or turned down. A general
meeting of the citizens of the town
and county is called for this evening
at the Commercial Club rooms to
discuss the matter and the court ur
gently asks all interested who can
possibly be present to come out and
express themselves In regard to the
granting of the franchise. The court
is anxious to do the right thing, and
