Norfolk was very pleased to extend
the glad hand to the 171) ) visiting bank-
era who were here on Wednesday to
attend the annual convention of the
Northeast Nebraska Hunkers' associa
tion , Group Threo. The convention
was held In the Auditorium and was
the largest and most successful In the
history of the association. In the
evening u hamiuut was tendered the
visitors In Marquardt's hall , at which
Governor Goorgu L. Sheldon was an
honored guest. Covers were laid for
192. The banquet was served In four
rout-Bos by the Ladles' guild of Trin
ity church. The ball decorations wore
the handiwork of the young ladles of
Trinity Social guild. In speaking of
the banquet on Thursday The News
Bays : "It was a banquet beautiful.
The hall was decorated In a remark
ably pn > U > way , green and pink pre
dominating. The colling was groan
with artificial leaves that hung sus
pended from everywhere ; pillars and
corners and tables were pink with
real and artificial carnations. A
Bcore of pretty young women served
the banquet , course by course , In mil-
BOM that was charming. From behind
a largo cage-like screen of green came
soft , sweet strains of music through
out the evening , produced by Miss
Fannie Norton at the piano and Julius
IIulIT on the violin. And the deli
cacies of the banquet rounded out the
entirety of an exceptional feast. "
A packed house greeted the Norfolk
band at the Auditorium on Monday
evening , when they presented their
second annual minstrel show. It was
one of the best local talent produc
tions Norfolk has seen. A dozen or
more pretty girls In bewitching cos
tumes added a new charm to the old
time minstrel show. The stage of the
Auditorium bad been transformed Into
a veritable electrical garden , with
clusters of rich red ( lowers hanging
everywhoie , lighted by electricity from
within , tin' effect was very pleasing.
Much credit must be given the band
IK > .VS for their clover work. The first

HOW CATTLE THIEVES WORKED
IN EARLY DAYS.
SOCIETY BOUND DY DEATH
How a Woman's Wit Directed the
Movements of the Old Time Sully
Gang of Cattle Thieves on the Rose
bud DcMarsche Under Indictment.
Oacoma , S. IX. April 25 In the in
dictment of Joseph DoMtiracho for
cattle rustling and the action of .ludgo
Carland , of Sioux Falls , last week in
holding him for trial at Deadwood
next month , brought to light a re
markable story of the formation of an
avowed thieving society , In which a
woman's wit played an Important
part.
"Tho Circle society , " as this organi
zation , dreaded by every stockman In
Lyman , Mojor. Trlpp , Gregoij and
I'rosho counties , was called , was the
product of the brains of Mrs. Meyer
Winter and her husband Bound by
all the rules of a black hand society ,
operating systematically , with a mem
bership ho secret that no man knew
whether his neighbor was a thief or
honest citizen , this organization for
fifteen years terrorized this trans-Mis
souri country. "Jack" Sully , pictur
esque outlaw , In his aerlo on a high
hill in tlio roughest part of the coun
try , was ono of the chiefs In the con
spiracy.
The Circle society held Its monthly
meetings at DoMnrsehc ranch on the
Big Wlilte river , above the town of
Wostovor. The olllcers of the society
were : Meyer Winter , president ;
David Colombo , vice president ; Mrs.
Meyer Winter , treasurer , and Joe De-
Marsche , secretary. Winter left the
country some time ago to escape lia
bility on a bond. He had a store at
Westover , where members of Mie
circle came to talk over plans with
him and his wife. Colombo is now in
the penitentiary for cattle rustling
and DeMarsche Is at bay in the courts.
Woman Rich in Schemes.
Mrs. Winter , as treasurer , received
the profits of the wholesale thefts and
distributed them pro rata among the
members. As natural to ono in her
prominent place , she was never at a
loss to suggest ways and means to In
crease the loot of the society , point
ing out herds that could lie taken and
rebrandod and showing the precise
way to do it.
Monthly assessments were paid by
eacli member Into the treasury and
the funds so raised were used In de
fending any member of the organiza
tion wlio might bo arrested for steal
ing cattle or horses. Because of its
extensive membership and the seciecy
which attended its operations , it conlrl
never h known whether or not mem
bers wore * on the juries that heard
the evidence against any ono of the
society on trial. John Bartine , coun
ty attorney , dared to undertake the
breaking up of this organization and ,
though his house was burned over his
head and ho was threatened with
death time and again , ho never re
lented In the unequal struggle. Mem
bers of the society even wore elected
to county office , so profoundly secret
were all their doings.
Two regular meetings of the circle
were held each month , on Sundays
usually , nnd there was always a large
attendance. Whites , mixed bloods
and Indians were represented In the
organization.
After Anderson's Scalp.
John Q. Anderson crossed one ol
the members in a saloon at Chamber
lain , defying an order to dance undei
a revolver and twisting the weapon
from the hands of the outlaw. Knowing -
ing this stockman on the Crow Creek
to be one of their indefatigable op
ponents and smarting under his In
sult , the society heard and adopted
a motion to ruin Anderson's business ,
Every member of the circle took an
oath that he would shoot every head
of live stock belonging to Andersen ,
wherever he might find It within the
next two weeks , and the society fur
nished the ammunition. At the next
meeting of the circle the members
were called on to report how well
they had carried out their pledges and
it was shown that over 200 of Ander
son's cattle and horses had been
slain.
The oath of membership In the so
ciety was terrible enough to do jus
tice to a Clan-a-Gael , the death penal
ty being expressly provided for any
act of disloyalty. With the settling
of the country , the organization has
had rnoro and more trouble to keen
out of the clutches of the law. A
number of Its members are already
In prison and If DeMarsche Is convict
ed , It Is likely the end of cattle rus
tling In this section will have been
sounded.
DR. GREENE PREPARF.D.
Former Norfolk Asylum Superinten
dent Ready for "Investigation. "
Dr. J. L. Greene , now head of the
Kankakee hospital for the Insane and
who several years ago was assistant
at the Norfolk state hospital foi
the Insane , was prepared for an Illi
nois legislator who swooped down or
the Kankakee Institution for an "In
vestigation. " Dr. Singer , who recent
ly left the Norfolk hospital where he
was assistant physician , Is also con
nected with the Kankakee Institution ,
Norfolk people accordingly will bo In
terested In the following press dis
patch from Knnkakee , 111 :
Investigator Met at Depot.
John P. McGoorty , unaided except
by four stenographers and five news
paper men , descended upon the Kan
Kakee lusano asylum Monday morning ,
Intending to surprise the management
of the institution. As a surprise the
descent was not n success It appcnrs
that a young w innn stenographer had
boon fearful of transportation facili
ties from tint depot to the asylum and
'nid telephoned to Superintendent
Tames I * Oroono that the party was
coming. All unsuspecting Mr. Me-
Goorty , wenrlni ; in ulr of Impregnable
mystery , alighted from the 10:30 :
o'clock train and made a dash for the
car which runs to the asylum door.
Just as he hounded upon the platform
an Inquiring voice asked :
"Is this Mr. McGoorty ? "
"It Is , " said the surprised legislator.
" 1 am Dr. Greene of the asylum. I
have carriages here to take the entlro
party out. Right this way , please. "
Surprise Party Broke Up.
Mr. McGoorty and retinue gave up
and silently rode out to the big Insti
tutions on tlio 1 nks of the Kankakeo
river. Three other legislators came In
one by ono on later trains and the leg-
Islattvo Inquiry proceeded upon regu
lation linos. So far as their Inquiry
went , they found no cases of abuse or
brutality , and out of 2,311 , Inmates
found only live men who wore de
prived of their liberty by being locked
In cells and only one man restrained ,
and his wrists were tied loosely with
a strap.
During the trip through ono of the
wards Representative McGoorty and
Hope thought they had stumbled upon
a case of brutality when a quiet young
man approached the party and re
spectfully asked :
"Are you gentlemen the members of
the legislative Investigation commit
tee ? "
Upon being answered In the aflrm-
atlve ho continued :
"I am from Chicago and am being
cruelly treated here. I have been
choked and beaten until I can stand It
no longer. "
"Who has beaten you ? " Inquired
Representative Hope.
Explained His Great Work.
The members of the committee be
gan taking the patient's name In or
der to Inquire into the case further
wh"n the young man said :
"That Is not all of their cruelty.
They are trying to poison mo by ster
ilizing my food. I am the man who
dug the Pacific ocean with an oyster
fork , and they are jealous , " said the
patient , and tlio legislators tore up
their notes and passed ou. There was
some excitement in several wards
when Hie members of the committee
passed , though nearly all of the pa
tients seemed to understand that It
was a committee of Inquiry , and many
shouted and gesticulated wildly. The
asylum cottages were found to bo
scrupulously clean. Dr. Gieene invit
ed the legislators to wipe the floors
with their handkerchiefs anywhere If
they believed they could find dust or
dirt.
Chairman Hill placed Superinten
dent 'Irecne upon the witness stand
during the afternoon. Dr. Greene &aid
that lie had come from the state asy
lum at Lincoln , Neb. , and that he
sought the position at Kankakeo be
cause he was ambitious to take charge
of a large institution.
Lost by Change.
"I lost money by coming here , " said
Dr. Greene. "I received a salary of
? 2,500. At Lincoln I had a private
practice worth $5,000 a year , and re
ceived $1,000 as advisor of the lunacy
commission. When I asked Governor
Deneon about the appointment ho told
mo to see the trustees of the Kanka
kee asylum , and that I would have to
have the personal recommendation of
Dr. Frank Billings of Chicago before
I could get the place. "
Upon being asked about the visits
of asylum trustees , he said that Dr.
Hlrsch had visited the Institution , but
had never stayed all night , and that
Dr. Billings had not been there lu two
years.
Examined Supplies Contracts.
The discovery of flour bids in which
the Star and Crescent and Eckhart &
Swan Flour companies , both of Chicago
cage , appeared as competitors , caused
considerable excitement in the ranks
of the investigators during the evening
session.
"You must know that those are ono
and the same company , don't you ? "
demanded Representative Hope of C.
W. Armitage , the asylum purchasing
agent.
"No , I did not , " was the reply.
"Then let me assure you that they
are , " announced the legislator.
An examination of the bids showed
that flour contracts had been pretty
well distributed between the two sup
posed competitors.
A thorough Inspection of the Insti
tution's coal contracts showed that
the annual cost of fuel had dropped
nearly 35 per cent since the Installa
tion of the Dencen trustees , who abro
gated the former coal contracts , which
they believed were too costly to the
state.

Woman Burned In Prairie Fire.
Slsseton , S D , April 25 Word was
brought to this city last evening of
tla burning to death In a prairie fire-
uf a Mrs. Freeman , wife of a farmer ,
near old Fort SiSBoton last Sunday.
There Is also an unconllrmod report of
the burning to death of another woman
and a child , The fires were so close
to the city that It was found necessary
to send out fifty men to fight them.
Thousands of dollars worth of proper
ty has been destroyed. The hill coun
try was a panorama of llames.
He Tried High Finance.
Recent reform waves having rou
doretl "high finance" unpopular an
111 timed Might in the aforesaid finance
brought grief and a night In the city
jail to W. F. Sporn.
Mr. Sporn was arrested on com
plaint of 13. J. Schoreggo , who charged
him with obtaining money under false
pretenses. Sporn went Into Schor-
oggo's store alter banking hours. Ho
drew a check for $5 on the Norfolk
National bunk and had Mr. Schor-
egge cash It. Mr. Sporn had not hail
an account In the Norfolk National
for over a year.
He was anested and spent the
night In the city Jail. In the morning
he was brought before Justice Lam
bert. His line was placed at $10 ,
which with the $5 restoration and the
costs made the high finance Junket
cost about $20.
Three similar complaints had pre
viously been made against Sporn. Ho
has , according to information given
the county attorney , drawn worthless
checks on both of the other Norfolk
banks.
Winslde Wars Over Fence.
Winsldo , Neb. , April 25. Five
times lias a representative of the
town government tore down a fence
and opened up a street In the suburbs
of the town and five times has an ad
jacent property owner repaired the
fence and shut up the street. Thus
It has been this week and seems like
ly to continue.
A long and hard fought battle In
the coutts seems Inevitable as neither
side Is disposed to yield an inch and
the acre of ground in controversy now
valued at $100 will undoubtedly prove
very expensive to the victor when
possession Is finally rewarded.
