II Is HOt OIteu UndC u DaKOId man is a VIC
tim of confidence people in towns east, out j.
Keller, of Crandon, admits that he is an eX-
ception. He took in New York and Phila-
delpha AT one place he was paid several
hundred dollars which he put in his valise,
and on opening it lie found it had been
changed for an empty one. On returning to
the place the parties were not to o found.
He was afterwards surprised at being ac-
costed by an alleged brother of the late Dele
gate Raymond, who kI CIV all about Crandon,
was clothing manufacturer and wanted to
present Mr.. Keller with a suit as an adver-
tisement. He took Mr.. X. TO some OF the
worst part of the city and knocked at door
held on the inside, when Mr.. X. took alarm
and fed without seeing the samples"
Some of the Black Hills papers are not
all sanguine OF securing the opening of the
Sioux reservation. As has been set forth in
the GLOBE, the provision of the Dawes bill
requiring the written consent of three-fOurths
of the male adult Indians would defeat it's
operation. The Deadwood Herald also says
that the Indian management is now under
control of the church. which IS opposed to
taking any of the reservations from the In
dams. There Is growing feeling III favor of
securing railroad connection with the North
ern Pacific on the north without waiting for
chance to cross the Indian country.
An Indian named Kills-Enemy-at- Night,
who has been in jail ut D atwood for murder
derS OF court officers and legal technicalities.
Witnesses came from great distance to the
first term of court, but the attorneys had it
put of. At the next term the irdctment
was quashed because it did not allege that
defendant was an Indian. At the term the
past month the next indictment was quashed
because the name of an Indian witness be-
fore the grand jury was omit ed. Witnesses
were present each time, and by the time trial
is had the bill of costs will be a big one.
The citizens of Spearfsh in the Black Hills,
have loaned their credit to the normal school
there TO keep it in operation till the erisla-
ture can appropriate. The last legislature
gave it but $1,000 for the two years. and the
original appropriation for buildings was only
$4,000, Y b lie the one at Madison had $4,000.
The Spear fish school has eght-fve students,
and accommodation for not half the number.
They think they are shabbiy treated, and
will ask the legislature for a liberal appropri-
alton this winter.
William Cross, farmer, returning from
hunt at the Red river, had an annoying bit of
experience. On his way home he stopped at
hotel at Ardoch and had his team fed. On
starting again he got hold of another mans
bride, discovered the error and laid it down.
The owner not finding it supposed Cross had
stolen it, and had warrants issued and served
and brought CroSsto town and discharged
without complaint as the bride was found. The
a yong man imed Ulla Adams, from
Pennington county, will no doubt spend the
next decade in the penitentary. He assaulted
German lady living near, married six months,
who was in the yard looking after some cat
tie, in the absence of her husband. She re-
sisted him and escaped into the house, but he
followed her and accomplished his foul pur-
pose. She was enciente, and her condition
was critical for time. Adams is in jail
awaiting trial.
The value of the new route from the South
to Bismarck will depend greatly upon the ac-
ton of the Milw Ikee line. 1t will have to
make close connection with its great compel
itor. the Northwestern, to save long layovers
and changes. A great part of the South must
use the Milwaukee. and it would seem to be
for its interest to make the needful connec-
tons.
On the division of the Northern Pacific
west OF Mand IN there is a good deal Of re-
joicing over the recent reduction of passenger
rates. AS it is a fall of 2 cents a mile there,
it is no sna item. The mama ement of the
road is regarded rs especially friendly to the
West Missouri region. which has elected the
division superintendent to the legislature.
The preachers at Grand Forks evidently do
not belong to the political prohibition party
as thel have petitioned the county board to
establish high license The chief reason they
assign is that Col. Plummef's county OF Trail
having voted out the saloons, they are CON-
ing over to Grand Forks after January.
A number of the Dung men at White Lake
and other points have taken out policies in
an Eastern marriage endowment company
which is to pay $4,000 if they marry after
two years. but they forfeit what they have
paid in if they marry before the two years.
They are regarded as confiding youths.
Watertown papers state that the Northern
acific is making a preliminary survey to
that place, with the view 10 perma Ient sur
yey in the spring. The Northern Pacific and
Manitoba evidently propose to be neighbors
in all parts of Dakota
j. II Beadle, of Indiana, a brother of the
general and author of several popular ooks
on Western matters, is making tour through
Dakota with view to writing it up as a
winter resort. He seems to find it enjoy
able.
7. W. Buttle, of Inkster, Grand Forks
county, who joined the American colony in
Canada, was another case of good man gone
wrong. He left debts estimated from SO, 600
TO $4,000
The continuance of the surveying party in
the field in the severe weather of winter, rum
ming the line of the Milwaukee Tower City
to Grand Forks, is taken to mean
business.
