The thirty two cattlemen who were
indicted by the grand jury in Fall River
county for manslaughter were tried at
Hot Springs last week. The jury, after
celebrating about fifteen minutes re.
turned a verdict OF not guilty. The case
was the outcome of the murder Of John
Eckman, a well known sheep man Of
Chadron, who was killed last September
by a band of cattlemen while moving
his sheep across the Nebraska line into
Fall River county. We learn that after
their discharge the cattlemen made up
a purse of 81 900 and presented it to the
widow of Eckman, who was present at
the trial.

Returned Fsort the Klond1ke.

Mr.. George Harmon, who but recent
ly returned from the Klondike, drove
over from Hill City to shake hands with
his Custer friends the forepaIt of the
week. The reception which was accord
ed him from the boys was somewhat
warmer, we presume, than generally
met with in the frigid regions from
which he came. He had with him a
buckskin bag full of nuggets, which he
exhibited just to show the boys what
kind Of money passed current in hat
country of the midnight sun. Mr.. Har-
mon gave two of these nuggets to his
old friend. Jack Gibson, who resides in
the lower part Of town. Mr.. Chllson,
who loves a qniet joke, accosted some of
our business men and tried TO sell them
one of these nuggets, which he offered
tor 25 cents, but they replied mo sir,
We are not buying any brass" The mug
get in question contained gold ID the
amount estimated OF about $4,000, which
i illustrates about what our business men
know about gold or gold mines.
Ii vi be remembered that MIR. Har-
mon lett here about six years ago for
the gold fields of Alaska, in company
with herman Gaughenbaugh, who re-
t lrned, while Harmon remained and
af ~ wards went TO the Klondike, and
was one of the fortunate ones first on
the ground. Mr.. Harmon has acquired
a fortune in that country, and We under
stand that during a short stay in Cali
iornia he purchased a ranch OF $50 acres
near San Francisco, and it is rumored
that he came back at this time partly on
purpose to take his mother ont there
where they will make their future home.
Mr.. Ii. however, has still some good
claims in the Klondike country, which
are being worked, which will necessi.
tate his return in the near future to look
after them We rejoice when one Of
our boys strikes it good, and it is crafty
ing to know that whether in the Klon-
dixie or South Africa, or any of the new
mining centers to which they have emf
grated, their services for responsible
positions have been always in request,
and it must be a cold day in a cold
country when the Black Hills boys get
left.
