TITLES ARE CLEAR
Approves Holdings Of Mixed Bloods
on White Earth Reservation.

Fargo. - After completing investi-
cations of the right of 1900 mixed
bloods to affiliate with the Minnesota
band of Chippewas, Thomas G..
Shearman special attorney of the In
dian department at Washington, left
the White Earth Indian reservation.
Shearman's Investigations into al
legged White Earth Indian land frauds
centered largely about the question of
when mixed bloods now holding prop.
erty on the reservation moved to
Minnesota.
According to Shearman's statement
of the case, the treaty of 1854 con-
tanned provisions allowing Chippewas
to move to Minnesota or to any Sec
ton beyond the Mississippi river.
Sherman says his investigation show
ed that all mixed bloods on the White
Earth reservation moved to Minnesota
prior to the treaty of 1854, thus main
tanning their right to the grant of
land holdings.
Approximately 1000 mixed bloods,
each OF whom has quarter section
OF land, are affected by Mr. Shear
mans decision. Briefs of the case
will be submitted to the secretary of
the interior during the next month.
Shearman says that unless the secre-
tary makes an arbitrary ruling the
titles will remain clear,

UNKNOWN SUICIDE
Jumps Into Red River After Goodbye
10 Said.

Grand Forks.-Bidding goodbye to
two boys seated on the banks of the
Red river, back Of the Trepanier resi-.
dence on Fourth avenue, an unknown
man jumped from rowboat in mid.
stream and was drowned.
Bernie Couch, aged IL, son of Mr..
and Mrs. T. j. Couch, 615 Ninth ave-
nue.. and Robert Brunskill, 721 Wal.
nut street, were the boys to whom the
unknown suicide spoke his last words.
They reported the affair to their par
ents. who in turn notified the city and
county officials, and this morning an
effort will be made to raise the body
of the suicide.
The boys tell stories coinciding with
each other. They were in the timber
near the river, when the man came
by them. stepping into boat at the
edge OF the river, and showing it out
into the water.
AS the boat reached a point near
the middle, the man rose from his
place. said his goodbye walking to
the end of the boat nearest the middle
of the stream, and jumped.
The boys didn't see him rise again.
According to one report given the
police authorities, the man had rock
bound with rope, one end of which
was tied about his neck.
The boys describe the man as ap-
parently young, smooth faced, and
fairly we'll dressed.

cHILD's FACE ALL RED SPOTS

e32 N. 9Th ST.. Terre Haute, Ind
my little nephew, a boy Of four
years. had q breaking out on his face.
It was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but It did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say It hurt, We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So I begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning I made a strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After I had his
face washed, I put the Cuticura oint.
ment on and In q short time his little
face was all red and dry. I kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got az
well and It did not leave q scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week

Looking For Beer Thieves.

Bismarck.-The want of a drink OF
beer may cause Red Garrett and
Joe Murray, local police characters.
to serve behind the prison bars. Both
of the men are at large but every ef-
fort is being made to locate them.
Garrett and Murray became so
thirsty that they became desperate
and not being able to secure the brew
any place else to satisfy their crav-
ings they broke into and entered
Northern Pacific beer car which was
standing on the side track near the
freighthouse. After taking two kegs
out of the car they were frightened
from their work by passerby. They
endeavored to make their getaway
around the corner of the car but Gar.
rett was recognized before he could
get out of sight. The man who wit
messed the act notified Chief of Pc.
lice Mcdonald of the robbery and he
at once started to work on the case.
He located Garrett last evening and
after he had confessed to the act he
was turned loose
Pacific detectives, arrived on the
scene and swore out warrant for
the mans arrest. A thorough search
of the city has been made by the Of
ficers but neither Murray nor Garrett
can be located. Information was re.
ceived by the chief stating that Gar
rett and Murray had beat 1t" out OF
town and the police of the nearby
towns were notified to keep lookout
for the men.
Although the men did not get to
drink any of the precious fluid that
they had taken out Of the. car, they
will have to face serious charge
when arrested. The two kegs taken
out Of the car were found under the
freight house platform and are assign.
ed local parties.

GOAT CASE TAKEN FROM JURY
JUDGE THROWS IT OUT Aztec
LITIGATION THREE YEAKs.
Several Hundreds Of Dollars spent
In the Trials Which Have
Been Famous.

Ryder.-North Dakota's very unique
and famous goat case reached q
summary end when Judge s. "A. Ryold
took 1t out Of the jury's hands and dis.
missed It.
Because Peter Ramstad, Z livery.
man. had the rashness to buy Q goat
three years ago and subsequently
failed to develop the sense Of humor
which citizens say should be inherent
In the owner Of a billy goat, both
Ramstad and Fred Brendemuhl have
been in court for three years and now
find themselves confronted with bills
for legal advice and fees amounting to
several hundreds dollars.
Ramstad paid $3.50 for the goat
three years ago. He kept It in his
livery barn Of nights During the day
1t browsed about among the tin cans
and other rubbish in the stable yard.
The liveryman was the butt Of many
joke. but none actually laid hands
on the goat until Ramstad proved him
self incapable of approaching his
friends verbal jibes.
Ramstad's friends then decided on
action. One night the goat was
slaughtered and made, into an excel
lent meal The affair was intended
as a joke on Ramstad, but the livery.
mans sense Of humor failed to rise
to the occasion and he swore out war
rants for several persons he suspected
OF being the offenders. One of those
whom he accused was Fred Brende-
muhl, who was arrested and placed in
jail.
Ramstad failed to prove his case
and Brendemuhl brought action to re-
cover $4,000 damages alleged to have
been sustained through false imprison.
ment. Hearings, motions, demurrers,
counterclaims. testimony and argu.
ments in the matter have consumed
three years.

acres of irrigated lands have recently

ten tons per acre each year, and this
hay is flooding the coast market and

This, with the fact that the winter
