The 20 Indians, ShoWpen for q
month with the now disbanded Col.
Tim MCCOY wild west show, slept
peacefully at q tourist camp last night
unmindful that another setback had
fallen their lot.
Their guardian" Miss Edythe Ster-
ling. former stage and silent motion
picture star, who had signed a con-
tract with Col Mccoy to furnish
genuine Indians for his show. had
gone to the Investment Building to
sign some papers with attorneys and
after leaving the building a colored
youth snatched her purse and brief
case, containing $50 and all legal
papers regarding her Indian wards.
Miss Sterling said today she drove
from the building to within less than
a block from 1901 New Jersey avenue
NV. where she is staying with
friends, when colored boy jumped to
her running board and grabbed the
belongings from the front seat She
said he probably had seen her leaving
the Investment Building and had
hitched ride on her cars rear bump
er, equipped with heavy trailer con-
nections She had stopped for traffic
light at New Jersey avenue and K
street NV. when the youth jumped
on her machine.
Papers in the briefcase included
inventory lists of all equipment car
rled by the Indian group. She had
given the receivers for the show a
check for 5000 to take over the arti-
cles now packed in railway cars at
the lexington yards. and had planned
to remove the equipment today. The
satchel also contained contracts
drawn up between herself and Col.
Mccoy, whom she said she had known
for more than 20 years, and Interior
Department permits granting permis-
sion for her to remove the Indians
from Arizona and New Mexico reser-
vations
Miss Sterling said she could get du-
plicates of the Government papers,
and the unfortunate incident will not
seriously affect the Indians with me-"
Immediately after Col. McCoy,s
show closed" she explained" began
negotiations with the World of Mirth
Shows. A temporary contract was
signed, and We are to join them in
Philadelphia Monday"
Miss Sterling's Indians are from
the Hopi. Navajo and Pueblo tribes
of the Southwest. She said that for
the last IA years she had been work.
ing among the Indian tribes in New
Mexico and Arizona, teaching them
manners and customs of the white
man.
