Norfolk's sewer bonds nro going begging , It appears , and a Inrgo sized commission will have to bo offered , without doubt , before they cnn bo dis posed of.

Cash , the lover desired by the bonds , Qf has simply written a note along the line Uiat , "I can't get away to marry you today. My wife won't let me. " City Clerk Hulff Is now In possession of a big batch of letters from various sources In the east , but all want the accrued Interest from last May on , and all insist upon a commission for disposing of the bits of paper.

" There were no serious life problems worked out by "A Stranger In Town , " which drew a good sized audience at the Auditorium , and there were no d1 md wounded lying around on tU. tttge after the show was over , but there was a genuine and whole- souled laugh out in front from the rise of the curtain to its fall , and dys peptics went homo feeling cured. Frank Beamish , the clever comedian who Is starring for his first season in this play of frolic and fun , made friends In Norfolk who will look for his return next season If ho does re turn , with eagerness. Ho Is supported by a capable and well balanced com pany , including pretty Miss Rita Knight , and the whole production did what it was supposed to do brought a sidesplitting laugh and sent nway the blues. "A Stranger in Town" is a play built on nonsensical situations that are thrown around people In love and misunderstandings. Mr. Beamish Is tall and good natural , clean cut and of the right sort. He possesses a per sonal magnetism that attracts his au dience Instantly. Miss Noyes Is clever and beautifully gowned.

Miss Mabel Gordon , as the governess who was locked up in a barn , was an other conspicuous feature of the com pany and the play. All in all , the play was well received and much enjoyed by the audience and It was fully up to Its pretensions. Is it a Railroad ? What ! Crofton Journal : The surveying party which started out sometime ago to survey the route of the Yankton and Southern R'y. from Yankton to the south line of Kansas , has arrived at Crofton , bag and baggage , team , wagon and camp tents and equipment , having completed the preliminary sur vey this far and will spend several days laying out yards , depot site and other things necessary In a town that promises to be an Important junction of a road from the lakes to the gulf with one from coast to coast. We suppose that we ought to be properly impressed and do a lot of tall shouting about this , but somehow we can't work our enthusiasm up to the proper degree. Wet have heard this Yankton & Southern'Ry. . talk so often In the past fifteen years and have done so much spouting every time the route has been mentioned ns a possibility that we have just natur ally run out of anything to say. Then , too , we are convinced that about ninety-nine per cent , of the rail road agitation stirred up by the head quarters of the big roads Is done for the very purpose of getting the news papers to comment. Somettlmes they even go so far ns to build grades , as was done by the Milwaukee between NIobrara and Verdlgro some years ago. The sound of the steel Is the only sure sign of a railroad. However , the present Indications look a llttlo more like business and it Is altogether likely that the north and south line will bo built. Whether it follows the survey now being made , remains to be seen. We are reliably Informed that the Great Northern has recently purchased a tract of land ten miles northeast of here , near Aten , and this lends color to the assertion that that will extend across the river at least. Coming down to the bare facts , the surveyors sent out as a result of the last agitation , have completed the sur vey from Ynnkton through Crofton , passing along here parallel with and just east of the old Yankton 'and Nor folk grade which cuts off the east end of our streets. That $25,000 has been demanded of Crofton with the threat of a rival town three or four miles away , and that cer tain of our citizens have been asked to donate money and land are fables. The surveyors Informed the Journal editor that they were simply surveying the line , know nothing about proposed townslte , and would go from here to Wausa. We would welcome another line of railroad but believe it Is too early to shout. LOST HIS FINGERS. Robert Erlckson Slipped and Fell Against a Buzz Saw. Newman Grove , Neb. , Rob. 18.

TO DISCUSS THE PROPOSITION It Is Up to Norfolk Business Men to Say Whether or Not They Desire a Street Carnival In Connection With Race Meeting Next Summer. A meeting of the business men of Norfolk IB called for the city hall Mon day evening at 8 o'clock to dotermlno whether or not the city desires a street carnival In connection with the race meeting which IH to be held hero next summer. President C. H. GrooHbeek of the Driving association , believes that a H trout carnival Is needed In con nection with the races , HO that the visitors from other towns and from the country around , may have something to interest them In the evenings after the races are llnished. Last summer the streets were pretty well deserted after the races were done. "I believe that there should be a carnival , with high class attractloiiH and a big dance at 11 o'clock each evening , " said Mr. Groosbeck. "That would make It worth while for the vis itors to stay here at night. " But the Driving association desires nn expression from the business Inter ests of the city before undertaking this plan. Mr. Groesbeck , therefore , has called a meeting for the city hall at 8 o'clock Monday night , when he hopes that business men , and especial ly members of the Commercial club , will moot and express their views.

MINNESOTA PLAN ADOPTED The New Primary Bill Will Require a Candidate for Office to be a Rich Man Fusion Will be Killed by the Measure , it Is Claimed. Lincoln , Neb. , Feb. 18. Special to The News : The Nebraska primary enthusiasts have sidestepped on the "open and state * wide" plan.

Tribunals of Sioux and Other Tribes Fall Before March of Civilization. Omaha , Neb. , Fol ) . 1 ! ) . One of the last props of the olil-tlmo life of the Indians has jiiHt been destroyed by the United States court , and in future all disputes among the Indians , Instead of being settled by the Indians In the old Indian way , must | io Bottled ac cording to the ways of the white man. In a white man's court. Federal Judge Triober , holding court In Omaha , last week declared that the Indian court must go , and that punishments and sentences of the Indian tribunal wore not binding and could not bo enforced. Ever since the white men begun crowding the rod men out of the great country west of the Mississippi , the In dians have had their own courts , pre sided ever by Indian judges , who Is sued their decrees according to the customs which prevailed long before the coming of the whiten. Those courts wore never Interfered with by the white authorities and all petty cases wore brought before thorn for adjustment. And the decisions of that court "went. " . Punishment for Murder. Years ago the Indian court was shorn of Its power to decide cases of murder , and an Indian outbreak nnd war almost followed that event. In the early eighties two of the great chiefs of the Sioux Tribe became jeal ous of each other. . Crow Dog and Spotted Tall wore rival loaders. Both were well known In war and In coun cil , and both stood equal with Red Cloud and Sitting Bull in the estima tion of their followers. One day Crow Dog killed Spotted Tall. The Indian court was quickly called and Crow Dog brought before It. Ho did not deny the killing , and stood ready to take his punishment. The punishment among the Sioux for murder was perfectly plain. When one Indian killed another , he , and of ten his band , was sentenced to give to the relatives of the dead man every thing ho possessed. All his horses , his dogs , his tepee , nnd even his woaj- OIIB wore forfeited. Everything that Crow Dog's band possessed was taken from H and given to the band of Spotted Tall. Crow Dog's men were left so destitute that they have remained beggars oven to this day twenty-live years after the murder. But not a whimper was heard from them. As soon as the decree was given , they walked up like men and gave away everything they possessed. The next day Crow Dog was arrested by the white authorities and taken to Deadwood for trial before the United States court. The Indian was smart enough to secure a white lawyer , and the plea was made that Crow Dog had already been tried and punished for the murder , The court held with the Indian , and Crow Dog was freed. But before ho was set at liberty , the Sioux nation was on the edge of revolt , in sisting that Crow Dog bo sent back to them. Pine Ridge Bench. Over on the Pine Ridge Indian agency in South Dakota , where there are 8,000 Sioux Indians assembled , the Indian court consisted of three judges , Thunder Hour , Kan I , llnrMc and Stand- Ini ?
