derer of Blanche Lamont and Minnie
Williams, by disposing in a summary man.
ner of his two appeals.
In a written opinion from the pen of
Chief Justice Beatty, which is concurred
In by all but one of his associates. the
court affirms the judgment of Judge Ba-
hers in remanding the prisoner to San
Quentin until the date set for his execu-
ton, but he cites the sentencing Of Dur
rant to be hanged on Nov. IL and remands
the case to the superior court to proceed
according to law. AS the remittur was
ordered issued forthwith and the court
holds that execution can only be STAYED
now by the issuance of a certificate of
probable cause, II only remains to re-
sentence the condemned murderer. which
will probably be done tomorrow.
Justice Garoute alone dissented from this
opinion, maintaining that Durrant's ap-
peal should have been dismissed. as the

GIRLS DARING NIGHT RIDE.
EIOping Sioux Maiden and Her Lover
Brave Death TO Wed
From the Chicago Chronicle.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
An Indian romance which almost rivals
that of Pocahontas and Capt. John Smith
comes from Pine Ridge agency. Last
week William jacobson, a young fellow in
charge Of one of the classes at Carlisle,
eloped with Jealia Beanard, an intelIi-
gent quarter-bred Sioux. The couple rode
from Pine Ridge to Chadron, Neb., on
their ponies during the night pursued by
the girls relatives ell the way They ar
rived in Chadron in the gray dawn of
the morning, thoroughly exhausted, and at
once proceeded to secure a license. Then,
in the presence of friends of the bride,
they were made man and wife.
The couple met about two years ago at
Carlisle where the young woman was at
tending a private seminary, and became
enamored of each other. They became
engaged, when the girl received a letter
ordering her home to Pine Ridge The
young couple kept up a correspondence,
fearing that their attachment would be-
come known to the parents of the girl,
who were very much opposed to her form
ing an alliance with with other than a
thoroughbred Sioux. A letter to the girl
was finally Intercepted by a young adj
mirer and laid before the mother. There
after not letter was permitted Becom-
ing alarmed at not receiving an answer
jacobson decided TO go to Nebraska and
investigate. Upon arriving at the agency
he contrived a secret interview with the
girl and arranged an elopement
one dark night the girl stole forth, and
procuring a saddle horse from the corral
slipped a halter over his head and led him
to the outskirts of the Indian village
where she was met by her lover in lone
ly canyon near the historic battle ground
of Wounded Knee Mounting their ponies
they started on their journey to Chadron
The shoes of the hoof-beats awakened the
village and thirty-mile chase was begun
over the toughest country this side Of the
Rockies. The journey was exceedingly
dangerous and hazardous The road at
times winds around precipces and rugged
cliffs and through rough canyons, where
misstep might plunge the riders into
eternity. For four hours they rode on their
ponies expecting every moment to hear
the cry of their pursuers When the light
of Chadron appeared In view the pursu-
ing party increased their pace, hoping to
overtake the fleeing couple before they en-
| tered the city. They failed in this attempt.
/ however, and the lovers managed to elude
! them.

HE GAVE UP THE DOG.
Drummer Rice of Augusta Let out of
Jail.

Jan
The charge against e. A. Rice held at
the police barracks subject to a telegram
from the chief of police of Augusta, were
withdrawn yesterday and the young man
was released. He sent a telegram to
Charles Wilson, at Augusta, the night
previous, asking that the charges be with
drawn, and that he would return the st.
Bernard dog, which he carried away, and
which caused all the trouble.
Chief McDermott still holds the dog at
the barracks, but will probably send it to
Augusta to-day. In vindication of him
self, Rice stated the dog was considered
common property in Augusta, and he did
not think he was committing an offense in
carrying il away.
