is rapidly falling in health. From
the time OF the selection of Asa to
that position Asa has held many meet
ings to consider the plans of providing
some way in which to secure tho
liberty of the tribe. Asa has gained
wonderful influence with his tribe
since his election and knows each and
every one of them and is well inform
ed on the opinions Of each member
upon every subject in which they are
interested. This was the reason the,
tribe chose him to go to Washington.
Asa, Geronimo, To-klon-nen and
Chaddo, the first two being chiefs and
the latter two being Apache scouts in
the employ of the United States gov.
ernment, were chosen on April to
go to Washington. AT the same coun-
Gil which selected these delegates 5000
OF the Apache fund held by the Gov
ernment was appropriated to defray
the expenses OF the trip. Asa, as chief,
was instructed to request Major Tay-
lor. commanding Fort Sill, to ask the
War departments permission to al
low these four delegates TO go TO
Washington.
1t was learned today, through Asa,
that the permission had been granted,
but the names of Asa and Geronimo
| had been stricken out and the names
of George Ration, superintendent of
i the work and also an interpreter, and
Jason, a scout, inserted. The Apache
! Indians feel very much angered be-
cause Of the change They state that
lit is the wrong delegation and they
do not know what they are going for.
\ The delegation as selected by the
War department will depart soon for
Washington. They will be accompan
led by Chief Quanan Parker OF the
Comanches, who is great personal
friend of President Roosevelt Parker
is at present in the pasture reserve
selecting the allotments for the in
fants OF his tribe. AS soon as he re
turns the delegation will leave foI
Washington The only redeeming fea
ture that Geronimo can see in the dele

should go at this time.
"The purpose of my visit to Wash

members in our tribe and we have not

We are greatly displeased over the
action Of the War department and
think that the new delegation should
not be allowed to go, because the
scouts have nothing to 10 with the In

government to watch over the In

PRELIMINARY
Hearing of Jos. Shore, Walsh
County Fracticide, Next
Wednesday.

States Attorney e. R. Sinkler, of
Walsh county, was visitor in Grand
Forks today on his way home from
trip to Fargo. In discussing the case
of Joseph Shores, the Walsh county
fratricide who killed his brother on
Saturday June 2, during quarrel over
fence between their respective
farms near Lankin on the 500, he
stated that the. preliminary hearing of
the accused man will take place next
Wednesday before Justice Depuy at
Grafton. Shores is understood to have
retained as his counsel Tracy r.
Bangs of Grand Forks. Smith-Peterso
Of Park River and JEFF Myers of Graf
ton. Insanity, it is said. runs in the
Shores family and it is believed that
the accused man will make either
that or self-defense as his plea.
Family History.
One of the Shores brothers was four
years ago adjudged insane by the
Walsh county examining board. and
pending his transfer to the state hos
pital for insane at Jamestown, was
confined for safe-keepiEg in the coun.
ty jail at Grafton. One bright morn
ing the jailer awoke to discover the
man hanging in his cell. He was cut
down but was past assistance.
Attorney Sinkler will prosecute Jos.
Shores. Anton Shores. whom Joe
killed, is said to have been a danger
GUS man and had often threatened
Joe's life. Anton. though one-armed,
the other having been lost by being
caught in the feeder of separator,
is said to have been a trouble-seeker.
He bore an unsavory reputation,
among his neighbors.

bride will never venture on the sea of
matrimony without first putting In her
pocket rabbits foot. No bride must
look in the glass after she is complete
ly dressed, she must leave of glove
or a knot of ribbon, or something to
ward off evil. Its known to be an in
vincible law that each bride must
wear:
Something old and something
Something borrowed and some-
thing blue"
And there are always SO many
bridesmaids and eager friends who
want bits of their apparel borrowed,
that the average bride finds no barrier
to fulfilling the charm.
No pin must be left in the dress of
the new wife when she dresses for
her wedding journey, for It will bring
bad luck, tbs said. Mary, Queen OF
Scots, stood patiently after her mar
riage ceremony when Lord Darnley
was the bridegroom that her maids
might take out all the pins from her
sumptuous gown and throw them
away SO that i'll luck might not come.
Poor Queen Mary-it did not seem to
be successful in her case, for judging
by her after life, all of her toilettes
must have been of pins and many not
removed by careless maids. Or pos
sibly she is the exception that proves
the rule.
