Contrary to our expectations the
United States soldiers had not left

times they surprised our camp. One
time they surprised us about nine

our horses (19 in number) and secured
our store Of dried meats. We also
lost three Indians in this encounter.
About the middle of the afternoon of

TWO MEDIUMS UNDER ARREST
Made by the Chicago
Police.


Upon request of the Chicago police, the
Omaha department Sunday night placed
under arrest James Francis McKenna, of
several aliases. and Lillian o'Hara, alias
Mrs. LILLIAN Farrell, who posed as the
mans wife. The two are what is de-
scribed in their literature about themselves
trance stenper mediums" but the designa-
ton used by the cold-blooded Chicago au-
thorities is plain grafters and high class
swindlers. Their rude accusation is based
upon statement OF a woman in that city
who asserts she was drained Of her earthly
possessions, consisting of iewelry and cash
advanced, in all amounting to 1880. She
said the man and woman were training her
for work on the stage as a medium, pre-
dieting wondrous success for her, but when
they found her funds were running low
they suddenly left the city. All Of the
tewelry described in the letter from the
Chicago police except a pair Of earrings
was recovered by the Omaha police. The
couple came to this city from Lincoln. The
woman has young daughter with her
and the Chicago woman also charges her
with having deserted her husband in Ohio
to go with McKenna.

CORONER STILL HAS THE BOY
No Word Comes from Uncle of Little
Fellow whose Mother Died
ON Train.

Little Johnnie Rambler, the 6-year-old
boy whose mother died after being taken
from the train at Omaha while en- route
from California to Philadelphia few days
ago, leaving him among total strangers, is
still making his home at the residence OF
Coroner Bradley, whose wife volunteered to
take care Of the youngster until relatives
can claim him.
Johnnie does not as yet know his mother
is dead. He has been told she is at the
hospital and he is too young to make a
more careful investigation. Thus far his
new guardians have been able 20 keep him
entertained among strange faces and sur
roundings. Coroner Bradley has received
a number of letters from persons through
out the state Offering and begging to take
the lad. They have read of the sad case
OF the orphaned boy and wish to furnish
him the home he has lost
Nothing further has been heard from the
uncle, James Hogan Of Sawyer's Bar, Cal,
but this may be accounted for by the diff
ficulties Of telegraphic or mail conmunica-
ton since the earthquake in the state.
