of Horse Stealing, He Doesn't

DULUTH. Mimi, Sept. 4.-Turned
out Of the county Jail, where he had
been captive for the last seven weeks,
a lone Indian, IMMERSED in even the
rudiments of the English language,
penniless, lost in a city the extent of
which he contemplated in bewilder-
ment, begged his formed jailers to take
him again into custody despite the
grand jury's dismissal of the charge
of horse stealing made against him.
Wa a-ge-sig, a young Chippewa.
whose parents live in the forest north
of Ely, was arrested July II at Winton
with Anton Besune on the charge of
stealing horse, carriage and harness
from Robert Bedford, of Tower. The
two were brought to Duluth and since
then they have awaited the action of
the grand jury, which today returned
a true bill against Besune for grand
larceny in the second degree, but found
none against the redskin. At his re-
quest he was returned to his cell and
will be sent back to his home near Ely.

CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-To miss a hus-

calamity, but to miss all three is a.

with her pink feet, shoeless and stock

Stratford hotel lobby seeking her. hus-

The Dresslers were on their honey
moon journey. Yesterday afternoon
they were to return home and trunks
were prepared and everything was in
readiness to catch a train at $3.50
O'Clock AT 1920 Dressler rushed into
their room accompanied by a porter.
The trunk, packed, stood in the center
OF the room. Beside it on the floor lay
a pair of demure open-work hose and
the finest French-heeled Oxfords.
With one fell swoop the hurrying
husband swept the footwear into the
trunk, and out went the trunk, trun-

from an adjoining room of the bridal
suit. She looked about her. Everv-

the drummers who patronize the STRAIT
FORD were astounded at the picture of a

hotel, showing beneath the f1ounce of a
rustllng skirt pair of bare feet.
The clerk explained to the young
woman that he did not think her hus-
band had deserted her. Ten minutes
later the bridegroom came dashing to
the hotel in a carriage. He rushed to
the room which had been his home for
two weeks. He found his wife. The

YANKEE CRUISERS
ARRIVE AT BEIRUT
All Europe Is Talking About 1t and Specializing on the
Probable Course of the United States-America's
Weight Is Expected to incline on the Side of the
Christian Against the Turk for Bulgaria.

BEIRUT, Syria, Sept. 4.-The United
States cruisers Brooklyn and San
Francisco have arrived here.
LONDON, Sept. 5. - The Morning
Post publishes a letter from it's Con-
stantinople correspondent in which he
discusses the Beirut affair and the DO
sitfon of the American missionaries in
Asia Minor. He says:
Things have arrived at crisis
The United States must either insist
on the Porte's listening to its repre-
sentations regarding American con-
Verts or drop the missionaries alto
gether- The latter course is naturally
impossible, and the sending of a
squadron has great significance
as showing determination on
the part of America to take an ac-
tive part in the Turkish question.
One result of this step will prob
ably be to induce the sultan to raise
his representative at Washington to
the rank of ambassador, so that the
United States can be equally repre-
sented here. AT present America is at
decided disadvantage in this respect
compared with the other frst-class
powers. Nobody can foresee the uIti-
mate attitude of the United States, but
1t is almost certain that her weight will
incline on the side of the Christian
against the Turk. AT the same time, as
matter of Importance to Great Brit
ain, America is almost bound to op-
pose the descent of Russia on the Dar-
dahelles because in religious matters

FUNNY MEN IN UNION
League of Entertainers Lays
Down Cast Iron Rules.

CHICAGO. Sept. 4.-The stage en-
tertainers of the country organized
yesterday in Chicago for mutual bene-
fit under the name of the International
Lyceum association. Although eschew-
ing all suggestion of union the
members set before themselves a list
of 'musts" that half a dozen labor con-
ventions would not be able to equal.
I'VE must chuck more dignity into
the profession of transforming" said
Ralph Bingham, Of Philadelphia, who
was straightaway elected president.
We must have competent committees
who can be relied on to separate the
unwary from his last penny. We must
have press committee able to pro-
duce printable stories of diamond rob-
berries. The public is ours; let 1t be
worked"
L. ]. Vaughan, after presenting the
report, was chosen one of the vice
president. The report as he read it,,
was in part as follows:
I'VE must crush the hotels into sub
| mission. Each member must be sup
piled with one kind look every day,
three trips to the dining room, and
three sterilized toothpicks. The bed
rooms must be heated in summer, and
provided with at least one broken win
dow for ventilation in winter The bed
club. Walters must, when requested,
give the tensile strength of the beef
steak, and the age Of the chicken must
be no longer preserved as a trade
secret"
Here Mr.. Vaughan was interrupted
by a voice from the rear
Il have prepared a memorial to the
railroad companies" the voice said,
requesting that they furnish more
fAn hrrr1
and some protection against rain for
those who take passage in this part Of
the train. These reforms would do
away entirely with the necessity of inn
proving the walking on the ties"
The speaker was ruled out of order
and the business of choosing a name
for the organization. was taken up.
The American Lyceum league was
suggested.
THAT will never do" replied one of
the humorists. I'VE would be called
the A. L. LIS, and that would not be
all"
Cries of "Sit down, no puns." caused
the objector to retire, but not until he
had won his point. Then various pro-
posals were made until it appeared
that the American Platform associa-
tion was I'm some favor. Again there
was fault finding, in solemn voice
on the back seat:
"And so we are the A. P. A"
After a suitable name had been
adopted the purpose of the association
was expanded by one of the enthusi-
asts as follows:
Its chief object is to gather togeth-
er all of the stars, satellites, comets
and asteroids of the American lyceum

"ParsifaI" Row EnIlsts Him for
Lone "Widder Woman"

NEW YORK, Sept. A. = Big Bill'
Devery declared himself in the con-
troversy over the religious opera, Par

He said he hadn't wanted to say any
thing on the matter, but he had be-
come interested in behalf of Frau Wag-
ner because she was a lone wilder
woman" whose rights were being in
vaded by Impressario Conried. "Bill''
said he always was for the under
dog"
1.-THE way that thing frames up to
me from where I sit" said he at the
pump, .is about this way: This Mrs.
Vogner's got somethin' she wants and
don't want no one else to have because
she wants it herself. This here guy
Conried goes over to the other side,
telling the public here he is going to
offer Mrs. Vogner a bunch Of the long
green for her comic opera. He comes
back an gives it out that his offer of
big wad has been trun down by the
widder. 8 because he couldn't buy
what he wanted he just took it. Maybe
Mr.. Vogner got tired O. writin' comic
operas or burlesques or whatever you
call them shows and wants to sell this
'un whether his wife's agin it or not.
You can't tell what some men will do
when they get too strong to work"
But, chief" it was suggested, Herr
Wagner has been dead long time and
it isn't a comic opera, either"
so much worse sport" retorted Big
Bill; she's lone widder woman. This
grand opera got it right this time,
didn't I?-is all she has to keep her
goin'. It's robbery. That's what it is,
robbery.
If this lone wilder woman wants to
keep her opera let her keep it. Con-
ried's got lots of other pieces to pro-
duce, and anyway the society dudes

It was learned Thursday that the
people to whom state fair passes have
been issued have abused the courtesies
extended them to an extent never
dreamed of by the association, and, as
result of the close scrutiny kept of
the passes Thursday and yesterday, the
secretary's desk is covered with tickets
which We're taken up.
Forgeries of all descriptions were
discovered in going over the passes,
and it was found that many of those
which had been taken up were courte-
sizes which had been extended to people
most prominent in business, political
and social circles.
One of the passes taken up yester-
day afternoon was one which had been
made out in 1896, and was good for life
1t had been extended as a special favor
to a very prominent citizen. 1t was
first used yesterday to secure the ad-
mlttance of carriage filed with peo-
pie, and was taken up when pres sent ed
the second time, after it had been sent
out OF the grounds to parties who were
waiting to take through another car
riage load on it.
Passes Were Altered.
1t was found upon Investigation that
In many instances where a pass had
been made out to some person "and
lady,, the words "and lady" had been
erased and the word family inserted.
In other instances the entire name had
been erased from the courtesy and an
other name inserted.
The fair officials were astonished to
learn to what extent the courtesies ex-
tended by them were being abused, and
they were more astonished at the
prominence of the people who practiced
the abuse. State, county and city off,
