claims tho brothers won't over into Min

large bunch Of cattle they had bought
there. When Drifting Goose returned
at the end Of twenty days with members
of his band, he found evidences that the
Johnsons were not to be scared out by
his threat, and knowing that Glare
johnson at least had the reputation
among the Indians Of not knowing the
meaning Of the word fear and that he
was unerring in the use of his Winches-
ter rifle, ne retired with his band after q
parley and left them in peaceful posses
sion. The nerve of the boys won the old
chiefs admiration and he afterwards
complimented them on their bravery.

Believing it to be the right Of every citi-
zen to protest against m impending act
of injustice, l respectfully request that
this protest be filed with the records of
the %coroner's inquest in case of Christine
e. Hedstrom:
First protest against the reception
of the. boys clothing as evidence for the
reason that it was in the possession of a
prejudiced person and shown about the
neighborhood to create prejudice against
the boy, before it came into the possess
sion Of the coroner.
Second protest against the consid-
Grafton as evidence of any statement at
tributed to the little girl, Jcannie, be-
u of efforts made by a party preju-
diced against the boy, to induce her by
questioning, urging and coaxing to place
the blame upon him.
Third request that the fact that
John E. Ecklund and Axel Oleson were
drawn ut first upon the jury, be made a
part of the record of the ease.
Respectfully,

wooden-legged man, who, in tramping
about the sod, struck the buried weapon
with his wooden leg. Beside the rifle
was a knife, broken, which the jury be-
lieve was used to dig the hole where the
rifle was buried. The stock of the rifle
is broken. There is blood or the water
ing trough, and it is believed that the
murderer washed the blood off his hands
or face after tho crime.
The boy denies touching tho body
after the crime, but the little girl has
stated to several. that he dragged it from
the center of tho room to one side, where
it was found.
Mrs. Sundqu;st and Mrs. johnson,
neighbors of the deceased woman testi-
fiel that she hud told them a short time
before the murder that either she would
have to leave tho house or the boy would
that he was a bad boy and had threat

evidence considered by the jury in ar

Verdict Of the Jury is Reached this.
Afternoon, After Hearing All
Available Testimony.
J Boy Will be informed Against BY the
States Attorney as Soon as His
Father Arrives.
The Boyis Held.

The coroner's inquest in the Hedstrom
murder case ended the 10th inst. and the
10 year old grandson Of the murdered
woman vas held by the coroner's Jury as
the author Of the crime. The verdict Of
the jury is as follows;
The Jurors nthe inquisition held upon.
the body Of Christine Hedstrom, find
that she came to her death feloniously at
the house Of Axel Hedstrom in Ghylin
township, Burleigh county, North Da-
kota, by being struck several times on
the head by William Hedstrom with a
rifle held in the hands Of the said Will
liam Hedstrom. The jurors state that
from the evidence produced before them
there is no reason to believe otherwise
than as they have rendered their verdict.
The boy is still in Jail and States At
torney Allen will not move the prelimi-
nary hearing until the boys father ar
rives from Joliet, Ill, as he is expected
in a few, days. This will be more salts
factory to the relatives Of the accused.
From the testimony that was taken at
the beginning Of the %coroner's inquest
and the several circumstances surround
ing the case the boy has beer under sus-
picion from the first as the author of the
crime. There were reports at the time
that tramps had been seen in the neigh
borhood and that there were suspicious
tracks OF. persons seen in the vicinity Of
the house, but investigation by the au-
thorities has failed to disclose anything
that would connect these umors in any
way with tho commission Of tho crime.
s1hero was no one in tho house IN the
night of the murder but the boy, the lit
tie girl and the murdered woman. The
hoy stated at first that all he heard was
IN cutlery and that then he covered up
his head, being afraid. Subsequently he
stated that after lo heard the cutlery, he
sat upin bed and that he saw the stricken
woman stagecr and struggle in the
kitchen, ana thai sic fell at ono tine
nearly to her knees and that it was after
this that ho covered up his head. The
shirt that tho bay wore Gil the night Of
tho murder has spots on it which have
been Analysed and pronounced to be
human blood. At first tho boy stated
that this came from some old rags, but
afterwavd he stated that he must have
gotten it or him when no fell down, as
he did after getting up to alarm the
neighbors. Subsequently he stated that
where he fell down there was no blood.
Mrs. Hedstrom was killed with a rife,
which had been accustomed to stand
back of the boys bed. This rifle had
been buried after the murder in the
plowed ground about fifty feet from the

but it is understood that Williams--who
had formerly been in the employ of
Warner-went to the home of his former
employer to get some clothes and have q
settlement. Mrs. Warner and three
children were the only mes at home
Mr.. Warner being absent at the house of
a neighbor butchering. Upon Mr.. Will
liams arrival Mrs. Warner despatched
the Oldest child to to her hus-
band that Williams had arrived and his
presence was desired; the child returned
home, but upon Mr.. Warner failing to
put in an appearance was again sent for
its parent. In the meantime, Williams,
it is said, made indecent proposals to
Mrs. Warner, and upon her refusing to
submit he outraged her. Williams then
hitched up his team and started for the
place where Mr.. Warner was butcherine
Mrs. Warner going in advance in q
buggy. On the road Mr.. Warner wax
met and she related to him her story
and when Williams came up to them he
was commanded to halt at the point of q
rifle, but failing to heed the warming he
was shot and killed as above indicated
At a coroner's inquest Warner admitted
to the shooting. The preliminary exam.

PIONEER DEAD.
One of the Pioneers of the Missouri
River Valley Dies at Aberdeen
South Dakota. Recentlv.

South Dakota, Recently.
Former Sheriff johnson of Mcintosh
county died recently at Aberdeen, South
Dakota, where he has been under treat
ment for appendicitis. johnson was n
the earliest settlers of the Missouri river
country, and the Mcintosh Republican
says:
"Clare D. johnson first came to the
Missouri river country in 1866, as a pri-
vate soldier in tho regular army, being
stationed at Fl. Rice, TT. Berthold and
Fl. Thompson. IIe Served three years
in the army. After the expiration of his
term of enlistment he remained on the
river with his brother Joseph until 1877,
when it was learned that this part of the
territory Of Dakota would be thrown
open: for settlement. In that year he
came to the James river in company with
Ben Randall, VIM. Young and Miss Hat
tie Young NOV Mrs. Gus Greenwald)
and "sauatted" upon land which now
forms a part of tho Harry Heath farm
2119 miles southeast of Columbia. He
was later Joined by his brothers, N. H.
johnson and Joseph johnson. The lat
ter divided his time between the land
taken hero and the Indian country west
of the Missouri, where he was employed
by the post trader until May, 1879. In
that month Joseph johnson was on his
way afoot to Brown county, and had
reached a point near the Missouri, when
he was killed by the Indian d~esperado,
Brave Bear. Glare johnson knew moth.
ing of the death of his brother, but had
expected him here and after waiting
some time for his arrival, set cut in
search of him, and found his dead body
stripped even OF his clothing. From his
knowledge of the Indians he suspected
Brave Bear Of having committed tho
deed, and followed the trail Of the MUIR
derer until he found he had gone into
the British possessions and joined Sit
ting Bull, who fled over the border after
the Custer Brave Bear later
came sver the line into the United States
again, and was arrested and after trial
was hanged in Yankton.
In 1870, Chief Drifting Goose, who laid
claim to all this portionof the James
river valley, warned all the settlers to
leave. There were not many Of them in
the valley at that time, but most of them
left, among the number who went being
