SIOUX INDIANS TO
BECOME CITIZENS

Washington, D. c., May 1.-THE
United States will gain 1856 new citi-
zens Saturday. They are Sioux In.
dams of Yankton, S. d.
Secretary Lane was on his way
there today as the personal represen-
tative of the Great White Father
the president of the United States--to
conduct the ceremonies. Incidentally
he will present the Indians with pat
ents to their allotted lands.
The action will mark the first real
step in Secretary Lanes policy of
giving all competent Indians full con-
troll of their individual affairs and
placing them upon the same legal
standing as all other American citi.
zens.
A feature of the ceremonies will be
the presentation by Secretary Lane to
each Indian of leather purse, a small
American flag and golden colored
badge, bearing the inscription "A citi-
zen of the United States" He will
then greet each Indian by his white"
name and the ceremonies will be
ended

ADVOCATES SENDING
DRINKERS TO FARM

Indianapolis, Ind, May 12.-Fred.
erick Almy Of Buffalo, told the nation
al conference of charities and correc-
lions here today that short term COM
mitments to the penitentiary are poor
treatment for drunkenness. Mr.. Amy,
who is slated to be the next president
of the conference, was discussing
What we do when the bread winner
is incorporate"
He also declared that direct relief
seldom goes into the drunkard's fam
lily. The money generally goes to feed
the drunkard rather than the family,
Mr. Almy said. AS an example of how
ineffecutal prison sentences are, he
told of man who has been before
Buffalo courts $50 times for drunken
ness. Mr.. Almy said he favored send
ing drunkards to an institution or
farm colony where inebriety is scien-
tifically treated, instead of to prison.

INSISTS WOMAN WE'D
HERE is HIS WIFE

Fairfield, May l2.-MrS. Tony Bruno,
formerly Mrs. Daniel Maliska, former
ly Miss Julia Smith, who was arrested
here Wednesday evening charged with
bigamy upon complaint of Daniel NAL
iska, who claims to be her hus band,
was bound over to the grand Jury at
the September term of court by Justice
D. B. Wilson at her preliminary trial
Thursday. Her bond was fixed at $500
and it is not known whether she will
be able to give bond.
Tony Bruno, who is also wanted on
the same charge Is not to be found
having shaken the dust Of Fairfield of
his shoes Wednesday upon learning
that Maliska had arrived from Chi
cago.
The justice court trial brought out
some interesting facts. Maliska testi-
fed to having married the woman in
Austria some sixteen years ago and
produced letters from her in which she
called herself his wife. He also claim
ed the three children who are in Fair
field with their mother at this time.
Mrs. Bruno as she prefers to be called,
claims that she is not Maliska's wife,
although she had lived with him for
fifteen years, she "just stayed for a
while" with him. She says however,
that he is the father of her three child
rem and that she got into the habit of
calling him husband on account of-the
children. She says they lived over the
saloon and that he forced her to tend
bar and be in the saloon from o'clock
in the morning until midnight and
compelled her to drink with any man
that he designated. That their fifteen
year old boy has been compelled to
tend bar since he was twelve years
old. She stated that she just made
her name short when she married in
Ottumwa under the name of Julia
Smith, When her son was called to
the stand he gave his name as Mike
Bruno and when asked what 1t was in
Chicago quickly replied Frank NAL
iska, but came here two weeks ago."
Daniel Maliska says he will remain
in Fairfield to prosecute the case
against his wife in September.

ANESTHETICS IN
KITS OF SOLDIERS

New York, May 12-Small bottles
of anesthetics now are being placed in
the kits sent to the soldiers OF the
British army in France by the vaca-
ton War Relief association. A spray.
ing apparatus is attached to the bottle
SO that the wounded soldier may ap-
ply the liquid to his wound quickly.
This produces local anesthesia which
continues for three hours and releases
the soldier from pain while awaiting
the arrival of an ambulance. Use of
this particular anesthetic is said to
have been authorized by the British
army medical service and by Russian
hospitals.
