My guess is the backslashes are causing problems. You have two options:

1) Escape the backslashes:
    file_name = 'java -jar "C:\\Program Files\\Sikuli X\\sikuli-script.jar" '

2) Use a raw string, which disables backslash escapes (also useful for regexes):
    file_name = r'java -jar "C:\Program Files\Sikuli X\sikuli-script.jar" '
