MISS MARK CLARK
Alleged Deaf and Dumb Woman Bilks
Business Men.

Hetland, Sept. A woman, who
gave her name as Miss Mark Clark
and who claimed to be deaf and dumb
worked a number of Hetland bust
ness men for 81 contributions to aid
her In the protested desire to start a
notion store at Brookings. She was
equipped with credentials certifying
to her infirmity and reliability, duly
certified by a notary public, but one
of the contributors later encountered
her a mile out of town, in company
with a male confederate, and she was
talking fluently. The hal in the
case was following the profession of
a horse trader and he had departed
from one farm without paying a 81
balance due on a trade. This slight
oversight on his part and the wom-
ans operations caused the local Of
ficers to go ON the trail. The man
was arrested, but later released on a
showing that he had returned to pay.
The woman was not found.

Finds Brother After a Separation of
Forty Years.

Iroquois, Sept. 5.-Like the lurid
pages of a yellow backed" novel
reads the story of Mrs. Jack Miller of
Iroquois, who recently was united
with her brother in indianapolis after
a separation of forty-one years. The
story began On April 10. 1873, when
Mrs. Miller. then A years of age. was
kidnapped from her home in st. Louis.
When playing with her brother on
the porch of her parents home a
stranger approached and threw a
sack over the head of the girl and
carried her away. The mother re-
turned to find the brother, now
Frank b. James of Indianapolis, sob
bling on the porch.
The next eight years of Mrs. Mill
er's life were filled with terror. Her
captors gave her away to a man in
Winthrop, La. Here she was fairly
we'll treated until another man car-
ried her away and sold her to the
notorious Bender family of robbers
and murderers in Nebraska. While
crying one day in the doorway of the
Bender cottage near Blair, Neb.,
three wood choppers passed. She was
crying and they took her away, then
came back with a posse and captured
the Benders.
After the trial and conviction of
the Benders, Mrs. Miller was claimed
by an Iowa woman, who said she was
her mother. A year later the false
mother deserted her and since that
time Mrs. Miller has made her way
in the world, always searching for her
parents. The past ten years she has
been happily married at Iroquois.
Her brother was located through
notices she inserted in various news
papers, in which she described Incl
dents remembered from her child
hood. From her brother Mrs. Miller
learned that her mother died five
years after her disappearance from a
broken heart and that her father Of
fered a reward of $1,000 and mort
gagged his little home to make a ma
ton wide search for the lost child.
