THE MYSTERY SOLVED.
The Mysterious Woman Proves to Have Bee
the Mistress of Portland AbscOnder.

The Mysterious Woman Proves to Have Been
the Mistress of Portland Absconder.
A solution to the mystery surrounding the
strange young woman, who was escorted to
police headquarters from the Northern Pacific
express train last Monday and detained in
st. Paul three days, was forthcoming yester-
day through Mr.. D. D. Shindler of the firm
of G. Shindler 6, Co., Portland, Or.
The gentleman in question arrived in the
city yesterday from Chicago whence he had
gone in quest of Miss Hildebrand, alias Mrs.
Davis, having passed through st. Paul from
the north last Thursday, the very day on which
the woman was permitted to leave town.
1t appears that Mr.. Shindler was either mis-
led or that be misunderstood certain infor-
nation given him concerning the move
ments of the woman at Helena. At any
rate, he was given to understand that she
had passed through St. Paul for Chicago, and
by some stupid blunder he failed to stop
here on his way east. According to his
statement the woman was either the wife or
mistress of G. Z Beebe. young man who
had been brought up by his firm, and who of
late years had acted in the trusted
capacity of cashier and bookkeeper.
About two weeks ago he suddenly dis
appeared from Portland and an examin alton
of his accounts showed that they were short
from 81, 600 to Sl0,0 a considerable pOr
ton of which he IS supposed TO have taken
with him. a couple of days afterward Miss
Hildebrand, with whom he had been init
mate, left the city and it was through her that
the firm hoped to obtain such information as
would lead TO discovery OF his whereabouts
and thus to his arrest, as Mr.. Shindler states
that she and Beebe kept up cypher cores
pondeuce. The latter is supposed TO be in
Canada and no doubt the woman has ere
this ioip ed him.

THE CROW RESERVATION.
Maj. Mclaughlin Gives Some Valuable Hints
as to How the Trouble May Be Settled.

as to How the Trouble May Be Settled.
Among the guests at the Merchants hotel
yesterday was Maj James Mclaughlin of the
gained considerable celebrity as being the
custodian of Sitting Bull.
The major has just returned from Wash
ington, where he has been for number of
days past combining business with pleasure
Among the objects of his visit was to Law
before the interior department certain facts
bearing on the educational interests of the
Standing Rock agency, with the request for
increased school facilities, aud before leaving
he received assurances of the requests being
granted.
Major Mclaughlin was questioned con-
corning the trouble over the Crow Indian
reservation, and in reply to queries he said
that the time had come when the reservations
should be so divided as to give each Indian a
tract of land for agricultural purposes, and
the sooner the better. The policy of giving
a certain tribe a vast tract of land Just to
roam and hunt over was detrimenta tai to the
purposes of civilization. Each tribe he thought
should be given sufficient land to meet the
actual requirements Of agricultural purposes
and no more. After each Indian had been
given farm the reservations. should be
thrown open for settlement and by this
means sinking fund could be created to
apply to their education. The theory that all
the Crow reservation was given to the Indians
by the treaty Of 1858. as claimed by their
friends. he thought Was not tenable, and the
only way to adjust the prevailing dissatisfac-
tiou TO the interests of the Indians and the
government was to make them settle down
TO agricultural pursuits, as indicated

When Advertising is Wanted.
From the Bridegroom Post.

There's nothing on. earth so mysteriously
prime, first, last aud all-the-time object of an
adve rtisement is to dray custom. 1t is not
was not and never will be, designed for any
other human purpose. So the merchant waits
till the busy season comes and his store is so
full of customers he can't get his hat off, aud
then he rushes 10 the newspapers and puts in
his advertisement. When the dull season
gets along aud there is no trade, and he wants
TO sell goods so bad he can't pay his rent, he
takes out his advertisement. That is, some
of them do, but occasionally leve-headed
merchant puts in a bigger one, and scoops
all the business, while his neighbors are max
ing mortgages to pay the gas bill. There are
times when you couldn't stop people from
buying everything in the store If you planted
a cannon behind the door, aud that's the
time the advertisement is sent out on its holy
mission. 1t makes light work for the adver-
tsement, for chalk sign on tie sidewalk
could do all that was needed and have half
holiday six days in the week, but who wants
to favor an advertisement They are built TO
do hard work, and should be sent out in the
dull days when a customer has TO be knocked
down With hard facts and kicked iUsensible
with bankrupt reductions and dragged in with
irresistible slaughter of prices before he will
spend a cent. That's the aim and end Of an
advertisement, aud if you ever open a store,
don't try TO get them to come when they are
already sticking out of the Windows, but give
them your advertisement right between the
ewes in the dull season, and you will wax
rich and own fast horse, aud perhaps be
able to smoke good cigar once or twice a
wear Write this down where you'll fall over
il every dav. The time to draw business is
when you want business, ana 1t when you
have more business than you can attend to
already.

A Young and Handsome Lady Dies Of Heart
Disease and the Body Remains Warm
For Several Days.
The gossips of West St. Paul have been
busily engaged the past couple of days in the
discussion of what had all the appearance Of
being case of suspended animation, and
additional interest attaches to the case from
the fact that while it was a source of super
stitious wonderment to the friends of the
subject it also baffied the skill of physicians.
at the beginning of last week, after brief
and what was not considered a serious ill
ness, there died young and handsome
lady. She was about % years of age, and
belonged to highly respectable German
family in good circumstances.
Her death was attributed to heart disease,
but when the friends came to prepare her
for her final resting place, it was discovered
that the body was moist and warm, while
the face bore the healthy and natural appear
ance of one enjoying a calm sleep
For obvious reasons the body had been re-
moved to cold room and day and night
went by and yet the remains were moist,
flexible and as warm as in life. 1t was de-
cided to keep the body while longer and
the funeral was postponed, as the friends
fondly hoped that their beloved
daughter, sister and friend would
awaken from her dreamlike repose
and be called back into life.
Three days went by and the body still showed
no signs of decay. On the fourth day after
death, as no change had taken place in her
condition and as the family doctor could offer
no solution to the phenomenon, it was de-
cided to call in experts, and Drs. Richie and
about to respond when word came that the
remains showed more certain signs and
that the funeral was about to take place,
whereupon the latter gentlemen decided
that their services were not necessary. 1t is
understood that the body remained warm to
the last minute, and the only theory ad-
vanced is that the heat was owing to chemi-
cal com bustion

Among distinguished Dakotans returning
from Bismarck to their southern homes via
st. Paul last night were Messrs. Pierce,
Prentice and Weller, charged before the leg
islature with having attempted to bride the
virtuous DeWoody in the interest of the re-
moval of the capital to Pierre. Their asser-
tons OF innocence were sustained by an
open countenance and a frank expression of
not guilty when approached by GLOBE re-
porter as they made for the Royal train with
grip in one hand and pocket flask in the
other They united in the declaration that
Bismarck is a bad town for pilgrim from
the South to sojourn in, even for brief
season. They al registered solemn oath
on Col. Aliens register-never again to
suffer the temptation of even brief soiourn
in the wicked territorial capital without a
guardian and body-guard.

Among the pilgrims from Central Dakota
sojourning for a season in st. Paul is j. O.
B. Scobey, the well-known lawyer from
Brookings. While in Bismarck the wicked
capital commission emissaries set up cruel
rob on Scobey. They iuyeigled him into a
joom and steered his off eye up against a
keyhole where he could see Pierre pilgrim
counting out $1,000 to the virtuous De-
Woody to secure his potent influence in the
interest of the removal of the capital from
Bismarck TO the town of Pierre in further
ance of a scheme TO boom town lots from
the possession Of old timers into the hands
Of tenderfeet. But when he was called to
the stand TO testify, he didn't prove to be a
"swift witness" On the contrary, he was
slow to remember what he saw and heard
In fact, his recollection of things seen and
heard fickered into the vague reminiscent
state at the critical iuncture.
