"Mad Marriage"
Mother IHcfl Willi Jtaugbtrnt.
TACOMA, April 1. A recital of
mother love, wldom duplicated find
never excelled, was given here toduy
concerning Mrs. W. W. Washburn of
Xeah Buy who, though sue might
easily have saved her life from the
steamship Governor, preferred to go
with her two daughters to death.
'he story was told by Mrs. W. 8.
Ilillinghurst, who with her husband,
was on the doomed vessel. They
reached here at noon.
The Washburn family was on deck
a short time before the wreck, Mrs.
HilllnghUHt sit Id, and pointed out their
home to fellow passengers. When the
crash came the full force of the im
pact struck on the side of the ship on
which Mr. and Mrs. Washburn were
with their two daughters. The girls,
Sadie and Oleno, were pinned beneath
falling timbers. When rescuers came
on tile Governor from the West allrt
land, Mis. Ilillinghurst said, they took
M v. Washburn off. Upon returning
for his wife, she refused to leave
without her daughters. Taken by the
rescuers she broke, away at the rail
and returned to the caip'n. The Gov
ernor at tiiat time was settling rapidly
ii rid it was impossible to save Mrs.
Washburn.
"The floor of our cabin titlted up
wards. Then the lights went out. We
made our way to tho deck, where
members of the crew were shouting
commands.
"The wonderful brilliancy and clar
ity of the night Immediately impressed
us. I now wonder how two ships
could collide in such a vividly clear
nlKht.
"It wan as himple to reaf h the
deck of the West Hurt land as to jump
from a low porch onto a lawn. Prac
tically all the rescued were saved In
that manner, though some people put
on life preservers and entered life
boats. "All of the passengers were only
partially dressed. I put $H0 in my
stocking when 1 left my cabin and
that was lost. However, no one be
grudges loss of money under such cir
cumstances. "The officers and crew of both
ships were remarkably cool. The
work of rescue was carried out rap
idly and it was all over before we
Scarcely realized what had happened.
"On the West Hartland the res
cued were given every possible at
tention. All around, nerve-wracked
passengers clustered and many mum
bled prayers of thankfulness at being
saved from the sea."
SEATTLE, April 1. The Pacific
Coast company at 1:30 p. m. announc
ed that a complete and careful re
check of survivors from the steamer
Governor, sunk off Point Wilson early
today after a collision with th steam
er West llartland, showed that seven
passengers and three members of the
crew were unaccounted for.
The list Issued by the company, and
which, it was said was official, fol

In his suit' the decision saiu.
Mother Is Right
"The plaintiff seeks to do that which
he believes Is his duty to himself and
his children," it continued. "The plain
tiff having challenged the paternity of
the child, the defendant comes to Us
protection and to the defense of its
legitimacy. That is her duty and she
is right in her claim. - She vigorously
chumpions the child's cause and this
is expected from any mother.
"The" Interests of tne defendant and
of the infant in this case are to a
great twieut me same."
"The three Stillman children, other
than the lnfunt whose paternity Is at
tacked, "are of sufficient age to deter
mine with whom tlief lesire to reside

Judge Morschauser said.
"Their preference should control In
the circumstances no7 presented.
While the children are with the moth

sary expenses. I believe to meet these
t expenses the alimony should be allow
ed in the sum of $7500 a month."
