AN HEIRESS FOUND.
She Has Been Living Among
Cree Indians in Montana.
Daughter OF Swede Her Parents
Were Killed by Indians Years
Ago-The Woman IL HEIR
css TO II Large Estate
i'm sweden.

Chicago, April 15.--A special to the
RecordHerald from Kalispel, Mont,
says:
Mathilda Youngquist, long thought
to be dead, heiress to a large estate
at Stockholm, Sweden, has been
found living among Cree Indians as
member of the tribe. A gold ring Civ
en- her by her father and mother, who
were killed in raid by the Crees
many years ago, has established her
identity.
When John Anderson, relative,
appeared in this part of Montana n
year ago and made inquiries for Il
family named Youngquist no one
could aid him. FINALLY he met an old
resident who remembered that, many
years ago, Frank Youngquist had
tried to operate a ranch in the eX-
treme northern part of the state,
near what is now the Blaclifoot res
ervation. One day the ranch was
raided by Cree Indians, who killed
Mr.. and Mrs. Youngquist and carried
away their little baby girl, Mathilda,
then four years of age.
Anderson yesterday met the girl
with band of Crees. She told him
she had been carried away by the
Indians after her father and her
mother had been killed and that since
then she had been with the Indians
and was the widow of a member of
the band who was killed in snow
slide several weeks ago. She remem-
bered nothing of her parents, she
said, except that they were white
IKE Anderson. An she had left to
remember them by was a little gold
ring. There was an inscription on
the inside of this ring, but as she
could not read she did not know
what it was. Anderson read the in
scription, which established the iden-
tity of the owner of the ornament. 1t
reads:
"To Mathilda, from Papa and Nam
ma Youngquist. 1885"
Anderson and the girl will go to
| Sweden immediately.

CUP DEFENDER LAUNCHED.
Herreshof's New Yacht, thu II reliance,
Takes Her Maiden Plunge
at Bristol, II. I.

Bristol, r. l., April 13.-Capt. Nat
Herreshoff's latest creation, the pros
pective cup defender, Reliance, was
successfully launched here Saturday
evening. The yacht was christened
by Miss Nora Iselin, daughter of c.
Oliver Iselin.
The Reliance is a decided departure
on the part of Herreshoff from his
other cup defenders, and is an excel
lent example of the American type of
flat-foored, fin-keeled boats. She is
not such an extreme skimming keeled
dish as was the Independence, but she
nevertheless resembles the Crownin-
shield boat more than she does any of
her predecessors built here. Her lines
are very easy, with a few hard places,
and a graceful, sweeping curve from
the bilges into the garboards. Her
stern is very fiat, so that she will leave
but little wake, while her bow, al
though not quite so broad and fiat as
that of the independence, is still very
much different from the bow of either
the Constitution or the Columbia. She
has long keel, but owing to her good
beam does not carry so much lead in
the bulb as the other cup defenders.
Her bow toward the end is quite sharp
while her taffrail measures scarcely
eight feet. Her greatest beam is well
up in the shoulders, and is carried aft
MANY feet

THEY ARE SAFE.
President Roosevelt Refuses to shoot
at the Mountain Lions I'm Yellow

Cinnabar, Mont, April 15.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt broke camp Monday
and is slowly working his way to
Maj. Pitchers headquarters at Fort
Yellowstone. He is expected to
reach the fort Thursday. He will re-
main there one day and then will
start for Norris, where the geysers
are.
Word received from the president
yesterday was to the effect that he
is in the best of health and thorough
ly enjoying his outing. In addition
to horseback riding he takes long
walks over the mountain trails. Not
withstanding reports to the contrary,
the president has not fired shot at
mountain lion, and mas no intention
of doing so. 1t is estimated that
there are 500 of these animals in the
park and they are killing large guam
titles of deer and elk. A determined
effort is being made to eXterminate
them and Buffalo" Jones, the game
warden of the park, with his scouts,
is Staying them on every possible
occasion. Mr.. Jones offered to round
up lion or two for the president to
shoot at, but the latter declined the

AMERICANS TAKE BACOLOD.
Town Is Captured by Capt. Pershing's q
Force and Hupdred Moros
Are khlled.

Manila, April 13.-The investment
of Bacolod, island of Mindanao,
which was captured by Capt. Perish
ing's forces, after a fight in which
100 Moros were killed, occupied three
days. The final assault was made at
noon on Wednesday. Desperate fight
ing took place inside the forts. Seven
cannon We're captured and II Aperi-
cans, not three, as previously cabled,
were wounded, few of them serious
ly. 1t is probable, however, that all
the Americans will recover.
The assault on Wednesday was care
fully prepared. The column carried
forward bamboo bridge, on which
the troops crossed tn" moat under fire,
and afterwards scaled the walls. The
fighting inside the forts was desperate.
Sixty dead Moros were found inside the
walls, and 40 were killed in the
trenches.
The whereabouts of the sultan of
Bacolod is not known. He is believed
to have escaped Monday night.
Maj. Gen. Davis reached Pantar,
North Lanao, Friday. He is in COM
munication with Capt. Pershing and
has forwarded supplies to Marahui,
which is the destination of Pershing's
column.

Blind Chaplain of the United States
Senate Passes Away in
California.

Washington, April l1.-Rev. Will
liam Henry Milburn, the venerable
blind chaplain of the United States
senate, died in Santa Barbara, Cal,

sergeant at arms of the senate. Mr..
Milburn, accompanied by his two
nieces, the Misses Timley, left Wash

The deceased was native of Phila-
delphia, where he was born in 1923.

and delivers at retail. 1t is claimed
that whatever price this company
wishes to make it can make. The
dealers connection with the transac-

BALDWiN'S BAD BREAK.
The Secretary of War Asks the Gem
eraI TO Rise Up and Explain.

Washington, April 15.-The war de-
partment has taken official cogniz-
ance of the reported statements of
Frank d. Baldwin, commander of the
Department of Colorado, in dispar-
agement of the Filipinos and negroes
as soldiers and Secretary Root has
directed that formal inquiry be ad-
dressed to Gen. Baldwin asking
whether or not he had been correct
ly quoted. Pending reply no ac-
tion will be taken by the department.
Gen. Baldwin is fresh from the Phil
ippines and has just assumed com
mand of the Department of the Col
orado.
The alleged remarks which he is
reported to have made We're to the
effect that one of his reasons for
liking the Filipino as a soldier was
the same that gave him a preference
for the negro in the same capacity
that in fight he was not worried
about his safety, as it did not make
any difference whether he got killed
or not.

Another chink Captured.

Another son of the Celestial Kingdom strayed over into the for bidden land shortly after the arri- val of the Sonora train last Sunday evening, but he was nabbed by the ever vigilant custom house officials before he had proceeded very far. He was given hearing in U. s. Commissioner Georges court Tues day morning. and gave his name as Ii Hoo, stating that he did not have "chdck chee' and did not know that he was in Uncle Sam's domains, He Is evidently a new arrival from China, not being con- versant in either Spanish or Eng fish, and came to Nogales from Hermosillo. Six of his 'paissdaos" were at the train to meet him upon his arrival but for some reason or other they failed to meet, and he wandered off by himself over onto this side of the line with the above direful results. Co m ssioner George decided that Uncle Sam shall pay the freight back to that dear Hong Kong, China, and Hoo is now in jail awaiting deportation.
 It is reported that Pacific steamship company is doing an enormous business in transporting Chinese from their native land to Mazatalan, Siholoa, for fifteen dol lars each, so Mir. Hoo will probably be back in Nogales, Sonora again before many months.
