Eight Girls Expelled From Fashionable
School-Defed Principal.

BALTIMORE, Md, Feb. 15.-Be-

Latin school, the fashionable prepara-
tory school for the woman's college,
and one of Them Miss Erna Shaw,
daughter Of the secretary of the treas
ury, refused to obey the mandate of
Principal Updegraff to refrain from

and her father says that it is because
of delicate health. Four other girls
have admittedly been suspended.
Principal Updegraff says no frater-
nal societies are permitted at the
school, but that eight women did
form a society. They finally agreed to
disband. Then they were ordered not
to wear their pins and five of them
fatty refused. Then came the va
cancies. The following statement was
made by Secretary Shaw:
There are eight Of the girls, my
daughter being one, who found in
some jewelry store eight pins, each
bearing the figure s, and perhaps some
other device. They bought these pins,
attached them to their collars or dress
fronts and made a good deal of mys-
terry about it, as if they belonged to
some secret society. They had no
society or password or organization
of any sort, but enjoyed the mystifi
cation of those who thought they had
and it got talked about all through
the school. The authorities interfered
and wanted the girls to promise not to
wear pins and to agree to cease inter-
course with each other. I think the
girls refused to comply with this de-
mand: at least my daughter told me
they had agreed not to comply and
that she would not do so unless
commanded it, which 1 did not

Fine Military Play.

The Indian" seems rather a tame
title to a thrilling military drama as
produced at LaVern's theater this
week, but the play itself is far from
being SO. Although not of a rough
roaring character, there are times dur
ing some of the scenes that excitement
runs high and the audience is moved
to cheers and applause. There is much
heroic action through the bill AMI
many chances to laugh and enjoy the
comedy.

YUMA IN PIONEER DAYS.
 A Tragic Story

The annals of the Southern California Historical Society con tain in their last issue the follow ing reminder of a bloody incl dent in the history of the early days of Yuma. It is in the form of depositions subsequently, ta- ken in Los Angeles. The first, only, is given in this issue:
 I Yuma Indian Expectations and
 the Glanton War. By J. M.
 Quinn.
 The following dispositions ta- ken before First Alcalde Don Abel Stearns of Los Angeles in 1850, give the most correct ac- count in existence of the Indian depredations on the Colorado which gave rise to the first In dian war in which the Ameri- cans were engaged after the con quest of California.
 These dispositions have never before been published, nor is there a correct account of the massacre of Dr. Lincoln's party given in any history of Califor- mia.
 Dr. A. l.. Lincoln, an educated man, a native of Illinois, and a relative of President Lincoln, came from Mexico to California in I849. After visiting the mines he returned to the Colorado river, and about the first of Jan uary, 1850, established a ferry at the junction of the Colorado and Gila. The Sonoranian migration to the gold mines of California was then at it's height and the ferry business was immensely profitable. Glanton's party, mainly Texans and Missourians, came by way of Chihuahua and arrived at the Colorado Februa-  ry 12, 1850. Dr. Lincoln, being short of hands, employed nine of them to assist him, and the six men then in his employ re- maining, made party of fifteen. Glanton, from all accounts, ap- pears to have been somewhat of a desperado, and Lincoln would have been glad to have got rid of him; tut he constituted him. self chief manager of the ferry. His overbearing conduct and ill treatment of the Indians no doubt brought about the massa- ere of the eleven ferrymen. The and Sonoranians had not suffered from Indians previ- OuS to GlantOn'S arrival. The account of the origin of the hos tillty of the Indians to the Amer jeans, as given by Hill in his deposition, is doubtless the true one. The Yumas continued to commit atrocities on American immigrants by the Gila route for several years They were final ly subjugated by Col. Heintzel- man and forced to sue for peace. 1
 When the report of the massa- ere of the ferrymen reached the state capital Governor Burnett ordered the sheriff of Los An geles county to enroll forty men and the sheriff of San Diego twenty. These were to be placed under the. command of Major General Bean of the militia, a resident of Los Angeles. Bean
The Arizona sentinel., 1905-12-20

ordered his quartermaster, Gen. Joseph c. Morehead, to provide supplies for the expedition. Morehead did so, buying liberal ] ly at extravagant prices, and paying in drafts on the state treasury.
 Gen. Morehead, with a force of forty men and supplies for a hundred, marched against the Indians. By the time he reached ] the Colorado his force was in- creased to 125 men-recruited principally from incoming inn migrants.
 On the approach of the troops the Indians fled up the river. Morehead and his Indian fight CTS camped at the ferry crossing and vigorously attacked their rations. After three months campaign against their rations, liquid and solid, Governor Bur- nett, who in the meantime seems to have lost sight of the fact that he had an army in the field issued a peremptory order to Major Gen. Bean to disband his troops. Bean ordered Morehead to return but that valiant soldier claimed he was affording pro- lection to the immigrants by the Gila route, and asked for an ex- tension of time. But the orders from the Governor were inn perative, and the force was dis banded.
 Thus ended the Gila Expedi- ton, or as it was sometimes called, the "Glanton War" It was short and inglOrious, but fearfully expensive. It cost the infant commonwealth S125, 900 and was the first item of the Indian war debt that two years later amounted to nearly a mil lion dollars and came near bank rupting the state. So far as known no Indians were killed. Neither Bean nor Morehead made an official report of the expedition.
 William Carr whose deposition is given, like Achilles, was shot in the heel with an arrow, but unlike, that doughty chieftain, he survived the wound. Carr, after his escape from the In dians, although wounded, went to San Diego to secure some mules left there by Glanton. He came from there to Los Angeles. when he fell into the hands of good Samaritans, who dressed his wound and cared for him. The doctor who dressed his wounds charged $500. The man who boarded him put in bill of $120. The patriot who housed him wanted S45; and the paisano who nursed him figured his services at $50. The Los An geles Court of Sessions allowed the bills to be charged up to the state. With such charges for one wounded man it was forum ate for the state that Morehead's Gila Expedition was bloodless affair.
