STREET FAIR PROPOSED
MEETING WILL BE HELD MONDAY
NIGHT AT O'CLOCK.
TO DISCUSS THE PROPOSITION
II Is Up to Norfolk Business Men to
Say Whether or Not They Desire a
Street Carnival In Connection With
Race Meeting Next Summer.

A meeting of the business men of
| Norfolk is called for the city hall Mon
day evening at o'clock to determine
whether or not the city desires street
carnival in connection with the race
meeting which is to be held here next
summer. President c. II. GroesbeclS
| OF the Driving association, believes
that street carnival is needed in con
nection with the races, so that the
visitors from other towns and from the
country around, may have something
to interest them in the evenings after
the races are finished Last summer
| the streets were pretty well deserted
after the races were done.
81 believe that there should be a
carnival, with high class attractions
and big dance at II o'clock each
evening" said Mr.. Groesbecll. THAT
would make it worth while for the Wis
| itors to stay here at night"
But the Driving association desires
an expression from the business inter
ests of the city before undertaking
this plan. Mr.. Groesbeck, therefore,
has called a meeting for the city hall
at s o'clock Monday night, when he
hopes that business men, and especial
| ly members of the Commercial club,
will meet and express their views.
Big String of Horses.
Secretary p. NJ Barrett announces
that there is a prospect for a much
larger field of fast horses for the com
ing summer than there have been seen
here before.

Norfolks sewer bonds are going

to the immense loans desired as re-
suit of the San Francisco earthquake

United States, has placed 4 per cent.

City Clerk Huff is now in possession
of big batch of letters from various
sources in the east, but all want the
accrued interest from last May on,
and all insist upon a commission for
disposing of the bits of paper. The
most favorable proposition contem-
plates taking the bonds with accrued
interest since last May and with a
$4,000 commission for selling them.
This proposal comes from the east.

INDIANS LOSE COURTS.
Tribunals of Sioux and Other Tribes
pafOpa March If Civilization

Tribunals Of Sioux and Other Tribes
Fall Before March of Civilization.
Omaha Neb., Feb. 19.-One of the
last props of the old-time life of the
Indians has just been destroyed by
the United States court, and in future
all disputes among the Indians, instead
of being settled by the Indians in the
old Indian way, must be settled ac-
cording TO the ways of the white man,
in a white mans court Federal Judge
Trieber, holding court in Omaha, last
week declared that the Indian court
must go, and that punishments and
sentences of the Indian tribunal were
not binding and could not be enforced
Ever since the white men begun
crowding the red men out of the great
country west of the Mississippi, the In
dams have had their own courts, pre-
sided over by Indian judges, who is
sued their DEGREES according to the
customs which prevailed long before
the coming of the whites These
courts We're never interfered with by
the white authorities and all petty
cases were brought before them for
adjustment And the decisions of that
court went.
Punishment for Murder.
Years ago the Indian court was
shorn of its power to decide cases of
murder, and an Indian outbreak and
war almost followed that event. In
the early eighties two of the great
chiefs of the Sioux Tribe became jeal-
Gus of each other. Crow Dog and
Spotted Tail were rival leaders. Both
were well known in war and in coun.
Gil, and both stood equal with Red
Cloud and Sitting Bull in the estima-
ton of their followers. One day Grow
Dog killed Spotted Tail.
The Indian court was quickly called
and Crow Dog brought before it. He
did not deny the killing, and stood
ready to take his punishment
The punishment among the Sioux
for murder was perfectly plain. When
one Indian killed another, he, and Of
ten his band, was sentenced to give to
the relatives of the dead man every
thing he possessed. All his horses,
his dogs, his tepee, and even his weap-
ons were forfeited.
Everything that Crow Dogs band
possessed was taken from it and given
to the band of Spotted Tail. Crow
Dogs men were left so destitute that
they have remained beggars even to
this day-twenty-five years after the
murder. But not a whimper was heard
from them, AS soon as the decree was
given, they walked up like men and
gave away everything they possessed.
The next day Crow Dog was arrested
by the white authorities and taken to
Deadwood for trial before the United
States court. The Indian was smart
enough to secure white lawyer, and
the plea was made that Crow Dog had
already been tried and punished for
the murder The court held with the
Indian, and Crow Dog was freed. But
before he was set at liberty, the Sioux
nation was on the edge of revolt, in
sisting that Crow Dog be sent back to
them.
