BONDS WAITING AT THE C IUROH
The Most Favorable Proposition Yet
Received Asks for the Accrued In
terest Since May and $3,000 Besides
for Commission !
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. The shortage of money , duo
to the Immense loans desired as a re
sult of the San Francisco earthquake
and proposed railroad building in the
United States , has placed 4 per cent ,
sewer bonds of only $40,000 from Nor
folk on the waiting list for a man and
they arc still waiting at the church
lor the bridegroom to come along.
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. The
most favorable proposition contem
plates taking the bonds with accrued
interest since last May and with a
f
$3,000 commission for selling thorn.
This proposal comes from the east.

Monday."A
"A Stranger In Town. "
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. Albert Horn-
burg , as Bobbie , a slang artist , and
his companion , Miss Edna Warde as
Mollle , do a number of clover special
ties. "Bobble" tosses up-to-date slang
with ease. Edward Allor , as a French
man , Is particularly good at the game ,
and helped to keep the house in a roar.
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.

MEETING WILL BE HELD MONDAY
NIGHT AT 8 O'CLOCK.
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.
Blq String of Horses.
Secretary P. M. Barrett announces

which are awarded by the act of con
gress which was approved February C.
It Is necessary only to flic a state
ment of the facts with the agent at
DCS Molnos. The pension commences
on the date of filing.
Any person who served ninety days
or more In the military or naval ser
vice of the United States during the
civil war or sixty days during the Mex
ican war , and who has been honorably
discharged and who has reached the
ago of C2 years , is entitled to a pension

cial condition. Those who have

plications under this law. No person

be entitled to any additional benefit
under the new law.
It is specifically provided that no
pension attorney , claim agent or oth
er person shall bo entitled to any com
pensation for services In presenting

pensioners , Including many widows.
As many as 26,000 old soldiers will be
affected by the new pension law. Mr.
Willcox distributed $1,803.105.18 pen
sion money at the last distribution.

MINNESOTA PLAN ADOPTED
The New Primary Bill Will Require a

Lincoln , Neb. , Feb. 18. Special to
The News : The Nebraska primary
enthusiasts have sidestepped on the
"open and state * wide" plan. The bill
which was reported to the house and
senate today Is state wide but the
closed or Minnesota plan lias been
adopted.
After wrestling with the proposition
the "reformers" were a trlllo discon
certed. The expense on both candi
dates and taxpayers will bo heavy nnd
It will take a rich man to run for of

INDIANS LOSE COURTS.
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 ? Soldier. An applicant for Jnntlco
iM'foro thin court usually received It ,
althoiiKh the way of arriving at n do *
elHloii would ho considered weird and
wonderful by a while mini's court.
However. loolinlcnlllloM of all Idndii
were swept away and received no con
