Toledo May 27.-An Indian girl at the
reservation committed suicide Sunday
about noon. She was 10 years old and
had been married three years and was
the mother of one child, which was born
some months ago. Her name was Nc
Gee and she had been separated from
her husband about three months. The
suppositon is that she had had some le-
cent trouble with him which drove her
to the deed of taking her own life. She
appears to have left her wickiup about
noon and with revolver. with but one
chamber loaded, fired the fatal shot into
her forehead the bullet passing entilely
thru.
The father of the dead woman is jim
Poweshiek, one of the United States In
dian police at the reservation. Heis one
of the few Indians who is entirely in
sympathy with and supports the indus
trial school for Indians at this place.
One sister and two brothers of the sui-
eide are now in the school. Poweshiek
departed from the usual custom of the
Indians here in that he purchased a
coffin at an undertakers in which to
bury his daughter.
