ASSAULT AND BATTERY
Such is the Verdict of the Jury In the
Case of John lsOmdO. Indicted for
Manslaugllter.

Manslaughter.
The case of the State VS. John Rondo,
indicted for manslaughter. occupied
the attention of the court from Mon
day morning until Tuesday night, when
it went to the jury. After wrestling
over it all night, said to stand tie
portion of the time and seven for ac
quittal and five against IL part of the
time. the jury sought Il little informa-
tion from the court, after which they
were not long in arriving at the verdict
.'guilty of assault and battery This
verdict was about what those VINO heard
the evidence seemed to think Rondo
deserved.
Judge Gardner sentenced Rondo to
30 days in Jail.
The STAR has upon two or three oc-
casions referred to this case quite fully
so that it must be quite familiar to our
readers. 1t was brought out in the tes-
timony that Ben Tibbetts. the victim,
came to where his wife and baby and
another woman were sleeping in Il
wagon. while close by was John Rondo
and wife in their wagon it being their
practice to sleep in their wagons in the
summer time. Tibbetts was drunk and
made such disturbance that Rondo
was aroused. the latter claiming that
Tibbetts was threatening his wife and
had grabbed the baby and when eau
toned that he would kill it said that
he wculd if he wanted TO. Mrs. lib
belts testified that she merely caution
ed her husband that he would hurt the
baby. However. when Rondo appeared
Tibbetts hit him couple of blows with
his fist. and as he staggered backward
from the force of the blow he stumbled
over an AK which in his excitement he
grabbed and as he raised it struck lib
belts upon the side of the head with
the flat side of the az. Upon the man
ner of the blow the testimony conflicts.
TibbettS made an effort to arise, but
failed, Rondo thinking he was too in
toNicated. but for their safety Rondo
claims that he tied the hands and feet
of Tibbetts and left him. Next morn
ing it was discovered that Tibbetts was
badly hurt although his skull was not
fractured lie fingered along. uncon-
scious most of the time. for nearly "a
month and died. Rondo was at once
arrested and has been i'll Jail here ever
since. The prosecution was conducted
by States Attorney Walter Anderson.

while the defense was looked after by

Burns, of Deadwood.
This is the Shannon county case.
which Judge Garland decided was not

cision it was at first thought would
throw the expense of the trial upon

Said perfectly reliable and exper-

reporter yesterday there are five splen-
did free-milling propositions within a
mile in the southern Hills district that
] know of. each showing good ledge of
ore that will mill run over eighteen dol

full of good ledges of ore. We have a
dividend payer now, and within year
will have number. The Holy Terror
is better than ever before. and is pay

Another man who has worked in the
Cripple Creek districts of Colorado,
and in Idaho. Montana and other min
ing countries, said he never saw any
thing in those districts, like portions
of the southern Hills. "Why," said he.
"if some of the properties were in Grip
pie Creek the people would 60 crazy
over them: somehow it is hard to get
capital to look at the southern Hills
district
The Holy Terror is down $50 feet and
the ledge is strong and the ore is rich.
The company has been putting in new
and expensive machinery and is now
in excellent shape. The rich speci-
mems were found on and just below IL Q
surface were wonderful. Specimens
were found that were fully one fourth

A GREAT ORE VEIN.

One of the best defined and richest
ore veins in the Hills and the one that
has been traced the greatest length is
in the Bear Butte district. 1t has been
traced. for more than 5000 feet com
mencing at the Golden Crest on the
southwest to the ground owned by the
Cooper Consolidated Company, on the
northwest. 1t runs through the Gilt
Edge and six claims belonging to the
Union Hill Company. 1t varies some
in width and value but is good payer
the whole length wherever it has been
opened. In places where the walls arc
clearly and cleanly defined, the vein,
which is verticle, is not more than fodr
feet i'll width. at other places it widens
out to eight feet. The lowest assay has
been sl7 and in most places there is in
the ecenter of the virticala foot of 100000
ore.

in the past year, while cotton has so

of the benefit that may accrue to

the visit here of such a representa-

1t pays to advertise, when one has

articles worth advertising. They

opportunities for profitable invest

helpful one TO another, always found
true and loyal to the best interests of
the State and he might have added
tone of the most intellectual and
social to be found in this good State. :"
These things We have to advertise,
and through the visit here of the State

ually done so. Not only to those
who visited Ellsworth have the at
fractions of this vicinity been made
known, but through them to others,
and through the State press, which
has sung loudly our praises, to many
more Who can doubt that the
effort which Ellsworth exerted
TO make pleasant the visit of the

The proposed action of the Argen-

wool amounted to about eight million
dollars. She Will have an interesting
time # she attempts a commercial and

United States does not want to lose
any OF her foreign trade, but when il
