Aborigine Crazed By Booze Alleged to Have Been Furnished by Slayer (By The Associated Press) Fargo,N. D., April 8—When Otto Lund, automobile liveryman of Au- dubon, Minn., gave lauor to Peter Paul, White Earth Indian Reservation full-blooded Indian, Monday night, the latter became enraged, started to beat his wife, and in a fight that followed, a blow from Lund’s fist is alleged to have killed the Indian, ac- cording to advices received here to- day. According to authorities at Detroit, Minn., Lund had taken a party of Moorhead men to Round Lake, forty miles northeast of Detroit for some fishing. Paul's wife told Sheriff Peter Malvey thaé Lund had given her husband liquor and of the attack her husband is alleged to have made. Lund, according to the county author- ities, has admitted striking the In- dian, declaring that he did so be- cause of the attack Paul was making on his wife. The Audubon authori- ties exonerated the Moorhead man from all blame in connection with the Indian’s death. An autopsy performed by Dr. C. L. Weeks and L. H. Rutledge of Detroit, showed, according to the doctor, that Paul met death as the result of a blow on the temple that ruptured a blood vessel. Lund was returned to Fargo from Seattle about a year ago on a charge of deserting his wife and children. He was later released on his prom- ise to care for them. He is a former resident of this city and according to those who knew him here, is of very powerful build. A coroner's inquest on Pa is being held at four o'clock ternoon. CHAS.

Two expert alienists for the pro- secution testified it was their be- lief that the girl was sane. The court was thrown into confu- sion during the proceedings when the girl, angered at the efforts of her attorneys to have her adjudged in- sane, jumped up and hurled a paper cup of water at them and shouted: “You can’t talk about me like that.” It was at this time she made her statement regarding her possible ap- pearance on the witness stand.

The teachers, Prof. H. H. Rhoades, Miss Margaret Cormick and Mrs. June Hames, are doing ,the janitor work without extra compen- sation. The situation of a shortage in pub- lie school funds is brought about b; the fact that the Village of Sanis! was situated on a government town- site for about eight years when only personal property taxes were avail- able, and considerable property has ‘been exempt under the laws. Congress has been petitioned to appropriate $300,000 to put the reser- vation schools on a debt free basis.
