poor relief board of the parish of ILL
herrdals, Sweden, which cared fol
Martinson when he was a boy.
Martinson's mother, stepfather and
half-brother brought suit against ths
executor, asking the court to set the

the arguments of attorneys Judge Nc.

document.
Howard Babcock argued the motion
for new trial for Jonah Star, one OF
the two Indians convicted of man
slaughter for the killing of Roland
Judish, seventeen years old. The NO

McNulty held that none of the alIega

sufficiency of the evidence, and held

slaughter. though it may have been
sufficient to put him under suspicion

thereupon granted the motion for 8

In fiourishing condition.
The meetings were conducted in a

years of service among the red men,
and Rev. A. l.. Riggs of Santee agency,
Rev. j. Johnson of Pine Ridge, Rev. q

The Indians make heavy contribu.
tons for missionary work among their
own people and at the meeting the
Presbyterians donated fund of So, 400

said the president had not asked for
Mr.. Murray's resignation and had no
intention Of doing so.
According to the Washington report
Mr.. Murray was to be asked to resign
because he had leanings toward the
