ceived from Browne, where it was
found by her mother yesterday morn
ing. The letter contained the plans in
detail, and when it was read in the
Neiderstom home no time was lost in
putting a stop to the match.
Young Browne, who says he is
twenty-three, but does not look to be
more than nineteen, is employed as
clerk in a railway office in Chicago,
and when he hit upon the idea of
eloping with the pretty Milwaukee
girl, whom he met only a few weeks
ago, he gained her consent and then
confided his plans. She could travel 20
st. Paul on transportation secured in
the name of his sister, and he would
come direct from Chicago and meet
her here. The transportation was en-
closed and the plans detailed in the
letter.
The girl announced to her parents
on Friday that she was going to spend
the night at the home of a friend,
stating that she would not be home
until the next afternoon. The suspi-
cions of the confiding parents were not
aroused until early yesterday morn
ing, when the letter was found. An
investigation disclosed the fact that
the girl had already left the city, hav-
ing departed on train which is due
in st. Paul at o'clock
Rushed a Message
Realizing that there was no time for
delay, the father telegraphed to Sher-
iff Justus and took the first train COM
ing this direction. He reached here
shortly before 10 o'clock last night,
and was happy when informed that
the marriage had been prevented.
Young Browne had arrived over the
North Western in the forenoon and
was at the depot to meet his pretty
sweetheart when she arrived. Leaving
her at a hotel, Browne applied for. and
secured a marriage license, and an
hour later was en- route to- Court
Commissioner Gallicks Office when.
stopped by the unfeeling deputy sheriff
who had been waiting for the couple at
the court house.
At first the elopers denied their
identity, but when requested to pro-
duce their license they weakened and
resorted to appeals, all Of which were
in vain. Deputy Hardick took the girl
to the county Jail and placed her in
the care of the matron, an action
which the youthful Browne denounced
as an outrage.
Browne declined to say anything
regarding himself, but it was learned
from Mr.. Neiderstom that the young
man had never met Mary until few
weeks ago."

STRIKING MINERS
WILL RESUME WORK
Five Hundred Men at EyeIeth
Decide to Accept the Com.
pany's Terms

DULUTH, Mimi, June 4.-The 500
striking miners at the Drake & STRAIT
ton works at Eveleth who laid down
their picks and shovels on Thursday
because of a reduction of Is cents in
their wages, have decided to- accept the
terms imposed by their employers and
return to work on Monday morning.
When the strike was declared the COM
panY officials stated that if the men
did not want to work for $3.50 instead
of $1.75, the scale that has been in
vogue, they did not have to, and the
entire works would be closed down un-
til such time as they were willing to
come to their terms.
At a mass meeting held in Eveleth
today, attended by strikers and citi-
zens generally, it was decided by the
men to cali the strike off and an ap-
peal was made to the company to re-
instate them. The officials, it is said,
We're willing to allow them all to re-
turn with the exception of the ring
leaders, and the assumption is that the
stripping work will be resumed at once.

Shortly after Millin made this state
ment Mrs. Patterson was brought in
TO be taken to the coroner's office.
Millin was leaning against the rail

bank. She heard muff1ed pistol shot

Mrs. Patterson to the Tombs without
bail. There is no formal accusation
against her, however
Mrs. Patterson met Young in Cali
fornia and 1t is understood she came
East about the same time he did. Ac-
cording to Young's friends, the trip to
Europe had for its object the breaking

is alleged that they are Systematically
planning to have these employees and
other confederateS take up the lands
under the new law as soon as it goes
into effect. The barons will furnish
the cattle to Craze the lands during
the interval; the men who take them
will have steady employment and thus
will be able to comply with the re-
quirement to live on the lands; and
when the fiVe-year period is ended the
barons will be able to buy the tracts
for very small consideration, because
the owners will have no use for them.
Would Have to Sell
Having no stock of their own and be-
ing compelled to fence in their indi-
vidual tracts at large cost, the cowboys
would be unable to do anything but
sell to their employers and continue in
the service as herders.
This is the plan which is said to be
developing. The barons will have the
cooperation of many people who are
willing to take the land, hold it, secure
title and then turn it over, if they
can be assured of employment during
the period preliminary to getting title.
1t is considered doubtful whether
there is any legal remedy. One of the
best informed men in the grazing re-
gion, D. H. Cronin, postmaster at
O'Neill, said:
"I don't know whether the big cattle
men have it all fixed up, but people
generally in our section incline to the
opinion that they have. There are
about 100000 acres in this tract, and
it would be worth the while Of the big
cattlemen to spend a lot of extra mon
ey in the next five years, if by doing
so they could secure title to such
region. 1t is larger than MaSsachu-
setts, New Hampshire, New Jersey or
Vermont, and as large as Connecticut,
Rhode Island and Delaware taken to-
gether"
The lands which may be taken un-.
der the square mile homestead act ex-
tend as far eastward as Holt county,,
120 miles west of the Missouri river.
From there they extend to the west
boundary of Nebraska, $50 miles. The
counties involved are Holt, Rock,
Brown, Keyapaha, Loup, Blaine, Gus
ter, Logan, Thomas, Cherry, Hooker,
Mcpherson. Grant, Deuel., Sheridan,
Dawes, Box Butte, Cheyenne, Sioux,
SCOTS Bluff, Banner and KimbaI. The
Union Pacific, Burlington and Elk
horn railroads run through the tract,
and there are many prosperous little
towns.
Cattle raising, however, is the only
industry. Twenty years ago the Ne
braska boom carried thousands of set
tiers into this region, where they tried
to farm. They were starved out. The
land will not farm. There is too little
moisture. After this crop of home
steaders had been forced to give up the
lands reverted to the government, and
then the big cattle men discovered the
possibilities of the region for grazing.
To fence the lands is impossible be-
cause the cattle must be free to wan
der from place to place, seeking the
best grass at a particular season.
