Quarrel and Fight at Manning Fatal to
Joe Dillingham;.
Special to Tlmes-Repubhcan.
Manning, June 11-Frank Dillingham;
is locked up in Jail here, charged with
the murder Of his brother, Joe, who
was found dead in the stockyards here
yesterday afternoon, CORY with blood
and his head crushed in. While no one
saw the crime. suspicion points strong
~ toward Frank Dillingham; and the
coroner's jury is expected to return a
verdict against him.
Drink was probably at the bottom OF
the crime. Tho men grown, both more
than 80 years of age, the two Dilling-
hams grew up into worthless "boozers,'
living chiefly from the meager savings
Of their parents and working only oc-
casionally. When drunk they quarreled
with each other violently at times and
frequently fought with each other
f1ercely over various grievances.
Yesterday morning they had one Of
their periodical quarrels and words re-
suited in blows. This was up town
and after the trouble was over Frank
was heard to declare that sometime he
would kill Joe. Joe was last seen alive
at II O'clock down in the vicinity OF
the stockyards. It is believed that the
brothers met here again about noon
and that then the fatal blows were
dealt. Frank was arrested soon after
the crime was discovered. When taken,
he was still drinking.

in progress at the time, at the sum-
mer lodge of ka-pa-you, and the par
ents of the girl had forbidden her to
attend THE dance. They objected to
her association with a certain young
INDIAN, whom they claim had bad
influence over the girl, and gave her
whisky. She was left at home. while

short distance from the lodge where
she lived She was daughter of Penn
ah-qua. the old jeweler of the tribe,
and his squaw, and the girl had not
yet married.
Left TO keep watch of her, was an
old woman and an old man, who was
an uncle to the girl. But the hazy
afternoon was too much for the old
people and they tell asleep. While
they were sleeping, the girl secured a
loaded revolver from among the
trappings of the camp, and placing the
muzzle to her forehead. put bullet
thru her brains. The remains of bot
tie of liquor was found by her show
ing that she had been supplied with
the requisite with which to drown her
disappointment and which she also
used to stimulate her courage to take
her life.
She was given burial after the Mus

dances etc, are in progress on ac-
count OF the death. Suicide by an
Indian is of rare occurrence. This is
but the fourth in the history of the
tribe here, so far as known. When

easy to get at the facts, as the In
