rain, sleet and snow began falling last
night and has continued all day, ac-
companied at times by heavy wind

cemetery, where all that was mortal
of Congressman Greene was consign-
ed to his earthly resting place. The
casket was enshrouded with beautiful
flowers and floral designs bestowed by
members of the Kearney bar and other
friends.

and stores during the services. Mr..

pine cruiser, says that the Leach Lake
Indians are in an evil temper and
ready for any sort of deviltry. They
have been holding councils two or

grievance is based on fear that after

will still be in debt, something that
has been known to happen before.
Gogins says the Indians could muster
in case Of trouble fully 1,2O0 fighting
men, nearly all armed.
