The sum of $8l, 900 was distribut-
ed last mon tn among the Indians of
the Pine Ridge agency. The money
was for compensation for the loss
of horses and other stock through
the operations of thieves in the early
days. The claim of these Indians
was allowed by the last session of
congress and was provided for in
the deficiency bill. This claim
against the government was a leg
acy of the exploits of doc Middle
ton, the one-time outlaw and famous
horse thier OF the sand hills of Ne
braska, and kindred characters. I'll g
records Of the Investigations would
make the choicest kind Of border
fiction. DOC" Middleton testified
before the committee that be had
stolen many of the horses belonging
to the Indians, and Yves Travers,
formerly keeper of livery barn at
Deadwood, testified that he had re,
ceived many of the animals. The
manner in which they were stolen
and disposed of was unique, and the
thieves evidently did not conside,
they were doing anything particu
larly wrong, regarding the property
of the Indians as their legitimate
prey. In nearly every instance tht
Indians are receiving more money
than they ever possessed before il

curiosity, and the other, the regular
theatre-goer who makes it a point to see
everything that holds out promise of good
entertainment. If this is so, it is easy to
understand that the dramatized version Of
David Harum' which is to be made
known at the Crawford Wednesday, jan
uary I, - proven immensely attractive.
Certainly the book has had tremendous
sale-the publishers claim over half
million copies-and should all its readers
want to see It in it's play form, its sue
cess could not help but be enormous.
The opening scene of the play is an ex-
terror. On one side is Aunt Pollys house
with its trellis-covered veranda and old
fashioned garden. On the other is David s
bank and in the background is big barn
In this act Harum sells the halky horse
10 Deacon Perkins, the horse that could
stand without hitchin" The second act
shows Harum in the Office back of the
counting room of the bank and the third
act is laid in the sitting room of Aunt
Polly's house. The kindly side of Harum S
character is shown in this act and in it
he tells the story of his visit to the circus
with Billy p. Cullom. Mr.. Turner's read
ing of the lines in this scene is said to
be exceptionally good.
Mr.. Calm personally superintended the
getting up of the production and paid
much attention to its cast. The dramati-
zation is the work of r. and NJ. w. Hitch
cock and they have accomplished much
in transplanting the story and character
sketches to the stage.
The play is no win its third year and
its success has been extraordinary. No
comedy produced in recent years has APP
preached it in the matter of popularity.
1t follows the book very closely, 1t is
clean and wholesome, its scenes and in
cidents are diverting and is full of humor,
rugged epigrams and homely philosophy.
The play will undoubtedly attract very
large audience. Sale of seats open Mon
