Indians in South Dakota Utilize the
Divorce Courts.
Sioux City, Iowa, Dec. Six Indian
divorce cases are on the docket in the
circuit court at Chamberlain for the
present term of court. The Sioux In
dams are becoming believers in the
divorce method of settling family dis
turbances. Three of these cases were
disposed of yesterday. The nrst heard
was tina of Eagle Boy VS.. Eagle Boy,
the evidence showing that the brave
had been treated with extreme cruelty
by his squaw, and he appealed for the
~intercession of law to protect him
from the strenuous treatment of his
wife. He also claimed that he has as
certained that he was her seventh hus-
band, when she had represented to
him that he was her first and only OBJ
ject of alteration. The court granted
the decree.
Burnt Prairie, another Indian; made
the rather startling admission in his
testimony for a separation that he had
been married th:--ty-six times, and his
manner indicated that he still consid-
cred himself quite a lady's a An
other divorce was given to Understand
Crow by default, upon statutory
grounds Of adultery, which were very
c~onclusively proved.

Bem1dji, Mimi, Dec. 10.-The chair
car on the north-bound passenger train
OF the Minnesota & International rail-
way left the track in the yards at
South Bemidji last evening while
switching from the "Y" on the main
track. The car, which was filed with
people, rolled down the embankment.
None were killed, but nearly every &C.
cupant OF the car was more or less in
1ured, and the shock that went through
the train threw the people in the other
cars and passengers in every section
OF the train were victims of minor in
juries. The accident occurred prac-
tically within the city, and medical aid
was on the scene almost instantly.
General Manager Gemmel of the rail-
road company had his special car at
the depot and he personally looked
after the comfort Of the wounded, who
were removed to the st. Anthony hos
pital. How the accident happened is
known. The train was rounding a
curve at a slow rate OF speed when the
chair car, which was the last coach,
off without striking any OBJ
struction, and it was a miracle that no
lives were lost, as the car was reduced
to a heap Of wreckage.

DIAN SCHOOL TEACHER AND

Sioux Falls, S. D., Dec. S.-George
Bear was hanged st 9:03 yesterday
morning. Displaying the utmost nerve,
Bear was led on to the scaffold at
9:O2. Quickly the moose and cap were
adjusted, and just a minute later the
trap was sprung which hurled Bear
into eternity.
Not a sign OF weakness was made
by the Indian. While the moose was
being adjusted Rev. William Holmes,
an Episcopal minister Of Indian blood,
from the Santee agency, Neb., was of
fering up a last prayer for the victim.
At 9:03 the trap was sprung and
thirteen minutes later Bear was pro-
nounced dead by the physicians. The
body was taken in charge by Rev. Mr..
Holmes, who left with it at once for
Bears home on the Brule reservation,
where he will be buried by his friends.
Only a small crowd of legal witnesses
and newspaper men were present, be-
sides the government officials.
George Bear and John Shaw. his
stepson, had cut some hay on shares.
Shaw sold some of the hay to a liv-
eryman at Bonesteel. A question
arose as to the division of the money.
Bear referred the trouble to John c..
TaylOe, a school teacher and reserva-
ton farmer, having charge of the
Ponca Creek division of the Rosebud
reservation. Tayloe had no authority
to settle the dispute. but wrote to Maj.
McChesney, agent, and told Bear that

l Bear borrowed a shotgun Of a white
man, saying he was going to hunt
chickens. Oct. s., while out in his
buggy with the
Shotgun by His Side,
he saw Shaw going to town with a
load of the hay which they had a joint
ownership in. Bear drove up to the
wagon and asked Johnny Shaw for a
writing" which would show his
(Bear's) interest in the hay. Shaw
refused to give him any satisfaction,
and Bear, who was behind the load,
or which Shaw was standing, shot
him in the back. Shaw fell off the
load, when Bear walked around in
front of Shaw and shot him in the
breast.
There were three witnesses to this
murder-Shorty-thigh, Mrs. Shorty
thigh and John Shaw, Jr., a son of
the murdered man.
Bear fired one shot at Shorty-thigh
and then got in his buggy and started
for the sch%oolhouse, some three miles
away, where Tayloe was holding
school. When he reached the school
he entered and found Tayloe. Mrs.
Tayloe, Cain Milk and Daniel Milk
we're sitting on the platform. Tayloe
said: Hello, George, been hunting
Chickens"
Bear replied: Eyes. l have killed
one and now / will kill another" He
raised his gun and fired the piece
while only six feet distant from Tay-
loe. The charge entered the right
breast, tearing an immense hole IN
the coat and the breast. Tayloe sank
to the floor and died Immediately in
his wife's arms.
Bear then returned home and slept
ever night. The next morning he
went to Bonesteel and gave himself
