Old Gag-New Dress.
[Esteline Bell.]


A burglar was going through house
in Dakota town one night and discov-
cred an exceptionally large roll of money.
Curious to know whether he had broken
into an editors house or that of some
other variety of capitalist, he turned to
the owner who had just awakened and
said:
Excuse me Colonel, but would like
to inquire how you came by such an un-
usually large wad of wealth -
"Sir!" replied the moneyed man, 81
am member of the territorial Ieglsla-
ture."
"a thousand pardons ~ exclaimed the
polite burglar, dropping the money,
"Shake! We never steal from members
of the profession. Good night. -

There seems to be good reason why
farmer Lilly of Corr,nne, should use every
endeavor to bring the parsmour of his
wife, now confined in Jail in Ohio, to
justice. The requlsition papers have not
arrived from Bismarck owing to some
technical difficulty in the complaint
which will be removed in a few days,
and an officer sent to Fremont after the
couple. Mrs. Lilly Is woman about
forty odd years OF age and the mother of
a large family. The man Nelson is said
to be about twenty-eight or nine years
old. 1t is further said he induced her to
leave with him because she was about to
get possession of considerable property
from relatives. He came to jamestown,
when he left, and had his trunk shipped
to Sanborn under different name. At
that place he was joined by Mrs. Lilly
and the couple went to Minnesota where
they passed as man and wife among his
relatives. From there they went to Ohio,
and at Fremont were arrested on the
complaint Of abduction and adultery.
The most serious of the charges have
not yet been made public for it is said
that the complaint alleges that the man,
taking advantage of the absence of the
family outraged sixteen year old daugh-
ter who reported the same to her father
upon his return home. If this is the
truth, Dakota jury will have little SYM
pathy with the accused if brought before
them on trial.
