LIBRARIAN RESIGNS FROM
 | DOUGLAS INSTITUTION

The many patrons of the Douglas public library and the friends of the librarian, Mrs. R. L. Gibson, will be sorry to learn of her resignation, which she has recently rendered, to take ef- feet the first of the month. Mrs. Gib- son has just finished the hardest task in libraIy worF that of opening and starting a new library, ana her splen- aid success is evident in the monthly reports of the institution which have shown a most surprising growth in the use of the library, which is the true index of its popularity. Her sue cess in the work is due to her study of library work and the knowledge so acquired before entering upon the work. She will be succeeded by Mrs. Jessie Harding of Nebraska, who will be here some time next week to get acquainted with the work. Mrs. Hard ing is said to be a librarian of some experience, as she comes to Douglas from a Carnegie library in Nebraska.

DAYLIGHT BURGLARlES
 DOWN AT DOUGLAS
Mexican Boys Thought To Be
 Guilty Parties.

DOUGLAS, May 19.-(SpecialO
 While all Douglas was enjoying an outing at Sportsman's park yesterday. two daylight buTglaries were commit ted at homes where unlocked doors made the commission of crime com paratively easy. The homes of W. J. Holtkamp, 1O4S Tenth street, and G. NJ Roark. 1109 Twelfth street, were entered between 3:30 and o'clock yesterday afternoon and jewelry and other yaluables stolen from each of them.
 The burglaries were committed by two Mexicans-mere boys, 1t is thought They were detected by MT. Roark leaving his home but at the time he did not think of them as burg lars and when he discovered his home had been rifed it was too late to catch up with them, though he gave chase.
 At the Holtkamp home articles stol en include a lady's gold watch wth the name "Claud" scratched on the inside: a gold chain and slide; two 22-calibre six-shooters, one a short and theA other a long; box of soap
 At the Roark home a filigree jewe casket, a pin and a savings bank with three or four dollars in it were among the articles stolen:
 MT. Roark detected two young Mex jeans leaving his home yesterday af ternoon about o'clock. They were munching at pieces of pie. Momen tarily he thought nothing of them but when he entered his house he found everything tOpsyturyey. He rushed out and as the Mexicans were still in sight gave pursuit, but they eluded him.

kICKAPOO COUNCIL
 AT SLAUGHTER RANCH
Indians Move Out From Doug las to Decide on Distribu-
 ton of S2t5,000y

DOUGLAS, Mag l9.-CSpecial.) )-
 Early Monday morning the Indians in camp at the baseball park accepted the inevitable and started out on their IS mile trip overland to the Slaughter ranch, where their obstinate brothers are in camp in order to hold the pow WOW which was to decide the manner of the distribution of the governments appropriation of s215,O00.
 The Scott Transfer company and all of the livery stables were represented with all their available rigs, and be- tween them al they succeeded in mov- ing the crowd. They arrived at the ranch between g and 10 o'clock in the morning and in the afternoon the pow WOW was held. It was held in regular Indian fashion. Seated upon the ground was a big ring of all the old men and the important ones in the two parts of the tribe. Back of them were the younger men and those less active in the meeting which was to convene. Back of them were the wo- men and behind them came the chil-
 
 meeting to order and announced the mission and purpose of the meeting and the rest of it was left to the h. dians. There was considerable speech making, but they were not slow at get ting down to business and the work of the meeting went along very harmon iously. It lasted all afternoon, but ev- Rpfc and they will all return today and probably get out this evening. An eff fort will be made to get in town in time for the morning train to Fl Paso, but it is feared that will be impossi- bIe.
 The result of the work of the pow WOW is the most logical decision they could possibly come to and was un- doubtedly satisfactory to all. It was decided that that part of the s215,000 coming to the Mexican crowd of h. dians is to be paid them separately through the medium of Attorney Bent ly and one of their tribe whom they shall elect, and that the part of the appropriation which belongs to the res ervation Indians shall be paid to them and the money will come to them through Superintendent F. A. Thacker of the Shawnee Indian schools, and also one of their tribe to be chosen by them.
 Judge Fletcher NJ. Doan and Mrs Doan arrived at the camp just before noon and the judge took part officially in the work of the meeting. They left the camp soon after the meeting to re turn to Douglas.
