Can AN ALIEN
BE ADOPTED
NICE POINT OF LAW INVOLVED
IN CASE or ADOPTION or ohlL-
DREN or THE PEOPLE Or
DERED pEPoRTEn FROM PEN.
BINA.

Pembina Pioneer Express: Some
thing over a year ago, a man
named Ingmundson came across
the line from Winnipeg accom-
panied by a woman and made
their home near Cavalier. The
couple had not come under the inspec-
ton of the United Stats immigra-
tion authorities and it was learned
later that the mar had a wife and
two children back in Iceland from
which country he had emigrated. The
immigration inspectors arrested the
couple and they were brought to Penn
bina where they have been ever since
under the surveillance of the u. S.
officers. AS there was delay in get
ting testimony and other red tape
several prominent Icelanders signed a
bail bond for $1,000 and the couple
have therefore been at liberty, n the
man has been working a part Of the
time on the railroad as section man.
AT the last term OF the u. s. court
the case was brought up, and the cou-
Pile were found guilty of transgressing
the immigration laws and OF inns
moral conduct and were sentenced to
be deported back to Iceland as they
had not resided long enough in Cam
ada before coming here to become resi-
dents there.
Last Saturday an officer Of the u. S.
immigration department, Inspector
Weaver, came here TO take the par
ties away for the trip back to the
old country. But while that was easy.
he a against another complication.
While the couple were in Canada a
girl, now about 2 years of age, was
born to them. Since arriving at Penn
bina another child now about 6 months
old has been born to them. The first
child is therefore a foreigner under the
laws of the United States while the
second child is American by virtue
of being born on this side of the line.
At the time Of the arrest the first
child was included in the bond given
by the local Icelanders to be produced
when called for by the U. S. authori-
ties.
The parents, however, d. not wish
to take either of the children back
with them, and the children have
been adopted in a legal under
the laws of North Dakota by resident
parties here. In the Ease of the young
err child this causes no difficulty as
this child is not included in the bond
and is not a foreigner that has cross
ed the line without permission OF the
immigration department. But the
older child was and is a foreigner.
who has never been legally admitted
to this country.
The people who have adopted her.
however, refuse to give her up to the
u. S. authorities on the general
grounds that by adoption by the AM
erican parents, she has thereby be-
come an American citizen. This sit
uation involves some rather nice points
of the law as between the authorities
of the state and Of the federal gov
eminent. Anyway as the first chap
ter in the case the children remained
here while the parents were taken to
st. Paul. d. Laxdal and Geo. Peter
son Of Cavalier are attorneys for the
foster parents.

Standard Policies.
North Dakota was one of a dozen
states whose legislatures last year
enacted legislation relative to health
and accident insurance. About two
years ago the National Convention OF
Insurance Commissioners proposed a
bill looking to a uniform law relative
to the provisions and conditions to be
contained in health and accident in
surance policies. There had been
much confusion on this subject and
some policies contained not only
tricky clauses but also provisions of
relatively little value save as talking
points for insurance statesmen. The
proposed bin prohibited these com
panies from inserting in their poli-
cies clauses which experience had
shown to be bad. and required them
to use certain specified policy pro-
visions of conceded propriety and
value. The bill is now a law in the
states Of New York, Massachusetts.

BILL LANCE RETIRED AT
 HEIGHT OF HIS CAREER
Great Chicago OutfieIder Did Not Wait
 For Fans to Knock Him.

Bill Lange, the man who discovered Frank Chance, prospective manager Of the Highlanders, is the only great player who quit baseball when he was able to command large salary and stay away. In 1899 Lange announced his retirement, which was regarded as a bluff by public and ball players who didn't know Lange-
 ''In 1900, when the American League was organized, I was offered $7, 800 and $500 expenses to join the Boston said Lange. Detroit started to dick CT with me, but they found out I was out of the game permanently. was succeeding in the real estate business and determined to stick to it-''
 There is real news in this statement. Lange was noted base runner. He went into second like a windmill. His arms and legs whirled in all di- rections and his speed was terrific. Few men had the temerity to make a genuine effort to retire him. No in- fielder cared to block him and risk broken bones. In 1896 and 1897 Lange led all National League base runners. In 1896 he stole 100 bases and the next year s. He was the fourth man to steal 100 bases between 1890 and 1900 Lea que in 1890; Hamilton stole 1O2 in 1890 and in 1891 stole 115. Brown, in the American Association, stole 110. To Bill Lange Willie KeeIer is the greatest player that ever lived, and Amos Rusie the greatest pitcher. He does not think the game is any faster, but says the publicity given by the newspap pers leads to this conclusion by many persons.

Yale team. Yale, however. looks up on the Syracuse game merely as a practice contest and probably will not give date later in the season.
 It is understood that Princeton, on the other hand, wants to play Syra- cuse along toward the middle of the year, and although nothing definite is known, it is thought that a game can be scheduled with the Tiger forces for the latter part of October.
 The Eli coaches have in practically every game with Syracuse used from Is to 20 men in the lineup during the game Syracuse, on the other hand, has not been able to make these sub stitutions, and as a result has been forced to face fresh material during the entire battle.
 The Yale game, too, has put a stop to the development of a certain style of play which might have been at- tempted by the Orange coaches early in the season. The strong Yale de- fense has broken up formations which had they been developed against weaker colleges would be good enough to work in the bigger games.

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec 30.-Large and enthusiastic crowds of fight fans saw the workouts of the two heavy Luther McCarty, at their respective camps yesterday. Nearly 5000 men crowded into the two training arenas to get the final dope as to the condi- ton of the two men.

McCarty brought out his entire string of sparring partners Young, Monahan and Kaufman-fOr the Venice show. The heavies will also be in training today. Tuesday will be a day of rest

 This pair of big fellows will enter the ring of the Pacific Athletic Club at Vernon next Wednesday afternoon box scheduled twenty-round contest for the McCarey diamond belt.
 Two weeks ago it was thought that Palzer on account of his advantage in weight and reach, would be pro- nounced favorite in the betting, but up to this morning the two men have been held on an even money basis.
 With both men we'll trained and in confident frame of mind, and a capacity crowd assured. the conditions for the heavyweight championship match appear to be ideal
