BELIEVES HE is A VAMPIRE.
Haiiuciuations OF a South Dakota Man
who Kills Cattle for Their Blood.

The cattle mon on the ranges west OF
Pierre. South Dakota, tell CHASTITY story OF
roaming ovor the reservation, killing cattle
with his nasei hands TO suck their blood,
and In some cases oven attacking men.
No one seems TO know who the man Is nor
exactly how long he has bssn wandering
about the ranges He was first seen some
four or Ave weeks ago, aud repeated at
tempts have been made to capture him, but
thus far without success He IL said to labor
under the halluclnatlon that he is vampire,
and his actions certainly bear out this hy-
pothesis. How he manages, without a wea-
pom OF any kind, to kill the cattle on which
he livas Is mystery. When found after he
has left them the animals appear to havo
been seized by the heads, borne to the ground
by main strength and torn TO pieces by the
teeth and nails OF the lunatic.
