Found this article with reaches to Bismark, North Dakota, surname Las Binder

CLAIMS CHILD SHE LEFT HERE 7 YEARS AGO
Coming here to claim her daughter, who for seven years had made her
home with Mrs. Mary Alger, Mrs. Ida Las Binder, remembered her as
Ida Gordon, an actress who appeared at the Crystal when stock was
running there, encountered some trouble because of objection of Mrs.
Alger to surrender the child and it is said was accompanied to the
railway station by the sheriff because she feared an attempt might
be made by the girl to leave her.
Mrs. Las Binder, then Miss Gordon left her two children, a boy and
a girl, with the Algers seven years ago but claimed the boy last
fall and returned today to get the girl. The Las Binders now reside
on a farm at Bismark, N.D. Mrs. Alger had become much attached to
the children, particularly the girl, who has had a pleasant home
and was not inclined to leave it.

No one has the usgenweb site for the county Bismark is in, and there isn't much there anyway, so I thought I'd post it here. If someone wants to move it to another site, feel free as I'm extremely busy putting on obits and don't have time to hunt down where to put it.
