REAL THRILLERS PUT ON BY THE ELDRIDGE TWAIN Couple Who Terrorized Clay County Arrested at End of Perfect Day Fargo, July 2—After furnishing enough thrills to form the plot for a dizzy five-reel feature, Mr. and Mrs. George Eldridge, transients, were ar- rested by the Moorhead authorities following a pistol battle on the out- skirts of the city at 8:15 p. m. yes- terday. : Horse stealing, automobile stealing, highway robbery, assault with intent to kill—these are only a few of the charges which may be brought against the couple as a result of their actions during the 24 hours previous to their arrest. In addition, Mrs. Eldridge, who is 15 years old, confessed that she had abandoned her baby, who was only a few weeks old, leaving it on a door- step at St. Cloud, Minn., last Satur- day. The couple, it is claimed, took a revolver away from the chief of police at Barnesville, stole an automobile, three horses, $15 from one party and $2.50 from another, and shot indis- criminately at various parties. Chief of Police Tim O’Leary of Barnesville recevied complaints that the two were going around the city begging ,the girl dressed in man’s clothing. Sunday evening at 8 o’clock he arrested them. Eldridge was car- rying two suitcases, and while walk- ing to the station, requested the chief to carry one of them, which he very obligingly did. Eldridge then pulled out an automatic and ordered the chief to hand over his own revolver, which he also did, Then the couple held up a passing automobile and compelled the occupants to dismount. Firing a shot at a small group of people that had gathered, they start- ed toward Comstock, being forced to stop when they arrived at the Passolt farm, due to engine trouble. They went to the farmhouse and robbed Mrs. Passolt of $15 and forced her to furnish them with a lunch. They also held up a young man who was staying there and took $2.50 away from him and made him hitch up a team of horses with which they proceeded on their way, a third horse being tied behind. The team proved fractious and was abandoned, the couple riding ‘up to the outskirts of Moorhead on the The North Dakota district, Women’s Missionary Federation of the United Lutheran church, was formally launch- cd at a meeting held Saturday in the Zion Lutheran church at Grand Forks.

Larned, a veteran. of the Federal army and old frontiersman, who put in six years of his life on the Dakota plains from.’64 to ’70, spent the week- end in. viewing thé scenes of the Sioux Indians attack-on the Cap'n Fisk expedition, the-principal part of which occurred eight miles east of Marmarth, where a large corral of earthen embankments still point out the spot where this intrepid party held the savages at bay for twenty days, awaiting relief by ‘the General Sully forces from Fort Rice. Mr. Larned visited the old camp- ing ground. on Friday, and again on Saturday when he..was. accompanied by Dr. Libby, secretary.of the State Historical society; and again on Sun- day he ‘accompanied a party of some score or more of people who enjoyed hearing him tell: of the many inci- dents in connection ‘with the running Indian attack which culminated in @ decided stand at Fort Dilts. The Fisk expedition consisted of @. imal, consisting |>f horses, mules, steers and cows. ‘The emigrants were prospectors, business men, etc:, who expected to reach the Idaho gold mines. Mr, Larned and his father ex- pected to start a tin shop and car- ried in their six-wagon outfit the stock, supplies, tools and necéssary grub for the purpose, The train had met with good suc- cess until their arrival at Deep creek, which name of course is not: recog- nized by Mr.-Larned, when they had to cut extensive approaches through the precipitate banks in order to cross: The first two wagons were tipped over causing a-disarrangement of the loads, resulting in the rest of the train ‘going on, leaving some ten men to “right” these wagons. When the train had reached a dis- tance of nearly a-mile from the crossing the men -heard firing. and upon looking back :saw hundreds of savage red-skins about ‘the wagons. ‘A charge was made ‘and the indians were driven away;: but-not until they had killed eight men..and captured eight springfield rifles together with 5,000 rounds of ammunition and all of value in the wagons, } Camp vias then made and the eight, bodies ‘were buried. That night oc- curréd a terfific ‘clotidburst, furnish- ing an abundance of water to the har- ried: emigrants. The. next morning the party started on but were contin- ually harrassed. That day they made eight miles; The next day they made six miles, and ‘camped just ‘east of what is now the T-Cross ranch.

In this production, which had a long engagement in New York last season, and this year held the stage at the Studebaker Theatre in Chicago for many month, Mr. Tully as the producer, Mr. Post as the act- or, and Mr. Booth as the author, are all entitled to their meed of praise for an entertaining work done in craftsmanship order.

Much to the ‘dismay of the sturdy frontiermen Gen. Sully had ordered that the party be escorted back to Fort Rice, which ended the expedi- tion.
