Did Not Want to Part with the Child

Emma Martin, alias Emma Foster a woman
about forty-four years DID, who had with her a
boy OF six years, was arraigned in the Police
Court to-day for vagrancy. Officer Melton tes-
titled that she was found in dsreputable alley
She stated that she was from Warrenton. Va,
four years ago and had husband there. but
he was no good; but she would go back to War
renton if allowed to do SO.
The court said he was more concerned for
the child.
Mrs. Foster said that a relative would take
charge or the child and she would return to
Warrenton.
The court said 'They all promise to get
away, but 1t always happens that they miss the
train"
She asserted that the child was in the Miner
institute, where she paid it's board
Mr.. O'Neill said that the Miner institute
would only take children during the day.
The court said that he would commit the
child to the Washington orphan asylum
But, she asked, cant l take it to Warren
tom
Yes" said the court, "when you can fur
nish satisfactory evidence that you have quit
your course of life, and can raise the child re-
specially and not before"
She insisted that it was only because of pow
erty that she was in the place where she was
found.
The court then took her personal bonds and
turned the boy over to Dir. O'Neil.

The boat left Marshall Hall at 8 pm. Before
she arrived at the wharf there the
entire structure was crowded to its utmost
capacity. When the gang-plank was thrown
out there was tremendous rush made to get
on board and, as the opening was not as wide
as the wharf, a good many people were inyol-
unfairly squeezed. A little boy was severely
crushed by being forced up against the steam
er side and his mother, who was holding on
TO him with one hand could do nothing to save
MIN The youngster yelled quite vigorously
and then tainted. His mother screamed out:
Il won't have my child crushed" and, turning
around, she struck man square on what the

probably have struck him again. but the rush
forced her on board. The child was uncon-

was SO much surprised and shocked that he did
not even protest. 1t is understood that the
Marshall Hall authorities will in future keen

Indian Maidens Bound for sch6ol.

! Z. . 3 i .
Rev. G. L. Hall of Fort Berthold was at
the Pacific hotel Thursday with two In
dian girls bound for the normal training
school at Santee, Nebraska. The names Of
the coy brunettes are: Mary Snow and
Jane Bird, their Indian names being Ska
wit and Pakash. They are aged 15 and IS
respectively, and are bright and intelli-
gent. They have been in the school at
Berthold three years. during which time
they have made remarkable progress. Rev.
Hall will accompany the girls to the San
tee school, which is under the charge of
the American Missionary association. Mr..
Hall has been among the Indians nearly
all of his life, speaks several languages
fluently, and is valuable man for the
agency.

The Stylish Burglars.

The Bismarck burglars are still prepar-
ing for rainy day, their latest ''haul" be-
ing made in the clothing line. Thursday
night they entered Dahl Bros. tailor shop
and took away a number of coats, vests
and trousers, none OF which were COM
pleted. They entered the shop by cutting
out one of the window panes and raising
the window. The Dahl Bros. have a
good clew to the burglars, and will spare
no time or expense in bringing them to
justice. Samples Of the stolen cloth have
been sent east and west, and it is believed
the guilty ones will be captured.

carpet for the spacious parlor, and within

ably. While conversing on the question Of
ceding the reservation to the whites he
said he never signed treaty and never
could. He is bitterly opposed to the open
ing Of the reservation and the commission
must not look to him for support in their
efforts With death facing him.,
as he has every reason to believe,
he spoke feelingly and candidly. He said
the Indians at last realized that the whites
are too smart for them. There was q
time when the Indians thought they were
smart enough to cope with the whites in
matters of business, but they now realized
that they have been outwitted at every
point. He said with much earnestness:
"The white is wise in books. He can read
and write and we cannot. We know moth
ing about books, and the whites have
fooled us. Now we are approached with
another treaty, but us old men will not
sign it. We are not able to deal with your
people, but in few years our young men
will know how to handle papers. They
are going to school and will soon know
how to trade with the government"
Sitting Bull is confined to his tent, but is
