YOUTHFUL BANDITS.
MADE A Big HAUL

Rolette, N. d., Now. 9.--A bold and
highly successful holdup. was pulled
off in the billiard hall in this village
between and in the evening, in
which several so-called "tin horns"
and two or three residents of Rolette
OF more or less prominence are report
ed to be considerably interested.
Two young men, mere boys. it is
said, arrived here and engaged q room
at the Hotel Rolette. where they re-
mained most OF the day. In the even
ing they went to the establts ltshment
across the street and by request and
suggestive nlanoeuvres relieved the
players in a social little game of about
81. 3O0--also the Jackpot. but the
kitty" is still there. After receiving
the contributions the two young n
nanciers withdrew and are believed to
have walked out of town. The victims
then recovered their breath and gave
the alarm, but there was little search
ing done until the next morning, when
officials became active, but without
success.
The next morning Thorwald Gilje,
who lives three miles north OF town.
reported the loss of q heavy work team
and buggy, which had been stolen dur
ing the night. 1t is probable that the
hoIdup men went from town to Gilje's
and taking the, rig went to Thorne.
| where two men with a team and bug
gy were seen passing through or near
town-the, last clue so far reported,
The team is not a suitable one for
making a long, fast trip, and MIR. ellie
is quite hopeful that his horses have
been left homewhere not far away
and will soon be recovered.

Baker Met *EViOlent and Ua.
lawful Death ,

Steele, N. D., Nov. e.--The
eoronsrs jury investigating the
death of Geo. Baker who was
( ,Iynehed at Steele, Dawson county
early Friday morning, at noon to-
day returned a verdict stating
that Baker met his death Avio-
IentIy and unlawfuIly at the hands
: of a. mob, no member of which can
( be identified. Mss,Js.
"Ths sheriff and other officers
of the law are absoIysd of all
blame in eonneotion with the
iynehins of deceased"
The body of Baker was taken to the
undertaking establishment Friday
night but was ordered returned to the
court room this morning for further
examination.
Sheriff Filbin and Jailor Murray both
were on the stand late yesterday after
noon but both stated they couldn't
identify an member of the lynching
party The two men who were left to
guard the bod after it was cut down
were on the stand this morning but
were unable to give any evidence tend
ing to prove who the mob members
were.
There is little expression on the
streets of Steele regarding the case
and today only few people attended
the inquest. There is as much mstery
as ever regarding the identity of the
individual members of the mob but
there is a we'll grounded suspicion that
there were men in 1t from Dawson
Media and jamestown as in all of these
places both the murdered people were
well known and much liked.

sleep.

The disorder among the white
prisoners when they learned that
johnson had not been locked in the
negro section became, SO great the
turnkey had to take Johnson to the
hospital cell until a cell in the negro
section could be cleaned for him.
Johnson was much annoyed by the
epithets hurled by the whites and by
the necessity Of being locked with the
negroes in the segregated section.
