Forty-five years ago today, on Sun
day. the 18th of May, General Custer
and his troops marched away from
old Fort Lincoln to meet their tragic
death on the battle field Of the Little
Big Horn. "..
Today, in Custer Park, was plante !
an evergreen, commemorating one OF
the men of that ill-fated company,
Mark Kellogg, the war correspondent.
Mark Kellogg was we'll known In Bis
marck and, with the rest Of the troops
quartered at Fort Lincoln, mingled
happily in the social life Of the little
pioneer town of Bismarck. On the
day of departure for the battle field,
Mark Kellogg was the dinner guest of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Piatt Dunn of this
city. The troops left at three in the
afternoon and it is well known that
none ever came back to tell of the
horrors of Indian warfare met on the
Little Big Horn in Montana.
The personal effects Of Mark Kel-
logg were forwarded, eventually to
John p Dunn in Bismarck and every
effort known was used in vain at

".The attitude Of the president
broadly upon the whole subject OF
judicial appointments unknown, be-
cause his administration is not old

processes in that direction" says the
dispatch. 'Some of his predecessors
were exceeding careful in making such
appointments, giving greater thought
to them than to appointments of any
other kind. That was particularly
true of Grover Cleveland, who not

Judge w. l.. Nuessle, Of district

case IN which local taxpayers asked
that II. p. Knappen. former county
treasurer, be required to turn over
to J. A. Flow, new treasurer, cash in
stead Of certificates Of deposit on tlls
Bank Of North Dakota. An early de-
cision is expected
The case was concluded after Il
thorough discussion by attorneys. in

During the discussion in court
Judge Nuessle expressed an opinion
on point Of general application in
the state, as to whether or not the
Bank OF North Dakota is required %
furnish a bond as public depositary.
Couldn't Pay Money.
Judge Nuessle held that while the
act Of the legislature appeared some
what confused it was the intention
OF the legislature that the bank should
not be required to furnish bond, al
though he expressed the opinion tha.
because OF the constitutional debt
limit the deposits in the Bank Of
North Dakota are not guaranteed by
the state. ,...-ss ..- IA
In support of II. P. Knappen's con-
tenti0n that he could not produce the
funds il mandamused, Attorney Crum
placed F. ". Cathro, director-general
OF the bank, OH the witness stands Mr.
CathrO said that the Bank of North
Dakota could not have paid over Bur-
leigh county's funds on April 20 and
could not today. Knappen had placed
$23S, 900 on certificate Of deposit iii the
Bank Of North Dakota, on his last two
days In office. The total amount OF
the funds is over $45O,0O0.& Mr.. Ca.
thro added that the bank would not
expect the money to be called for in, a
lump sum, but to be paid out in the
usual course OF business.
Stops Political Questions.
Mr. sCrum callea J.. 4. Bell, one oil
the taxpayers who brought the man
Clamus action to the stand, and began
to question him regarding the motives
Of the taxpayers in bringing the suit.
Judge Nuessle stopped Mr.. Crum, de-
claring there would he no politics in
troduced in the case, that it was
matter Of law. -
Judge Nuessle expressed the opinion
that in a mandamus action, brought
because of an extraordinary exigency,
the $S8,000 sinking fund deposited by
Knappen could not be disturbed, but
expressed the opinion he had nO\right
to deposit $150,000 of general fund
money on certificate of deposit. 1t
was the contention Of the taxpayers
that the apportionment to the politi-
cal subdivisions cannot be made be-
cause the general fund is so tied up.

tempt to find any member of Mark
Kelloggs family. All through the
years that followed, the little con-
signment of personal effects were
treasured by John P Dunn. Since the
passing of Mr. Dunn, few years ago,
his widow. Mrs Christina Dunn, has
turned over the articles to the State
Historical Society, where they are now
in keeping.
So today, the brave little pioneer
woman, Mrs. Dunn, has had planted in
Custer Park, an evergreen tree in
memory of the friend of her husband
and herself-their gay dinner guest
who marched away to the tune OF
Garry Owen,' the air SO beloved by
General Custer. 1t will be the duty
of the Bismarck people to keep green
the tree planted to the memory of the
war correspondent who went down
with his friends on that fateful day,
Just as Mrs. Dunn, herself an invalid,
now confined entirely to her room,
has kept green the memory of the
brave men who fought with General
Custer to their death, when Bismarck
was young.
