The Information was Wrong.

The gentleman who gave The
CAPITAL its information concerning
the alleged swindle as practiced upon
Mr.. Stafford in Sanborn county by q
stove agent was mislead as tn the facts
Of the case. The substance of the sit
uation was that the agent had altered
the note given by Stafford SO as make it
due in five months instead OF five years
and FIVE months. w. W. Bowen, who
represents the Wrought Iron Range
Co., of ST. Louis, called at this Office to-
day ard showed US the note in question
and there was not the slightest evil
dence that the note had been altered in
any way. 1t was exactly the same as a
dozen other notes, bearing the signat-
uree of good farmers in the county, all
of which were due Nov. l, without int
crest. Mr.. Bowen says that Stafford
was present when the deal was made
and understood the situation, and further
says that he will willingly take back
the stove and give up the note to Mr..
Stafford at any time. Mr.. Bowen says
they are doing legitimate and honest
business and the high rating OF the
firm would indicate that they would
permit of no dishonest methods in
their business transactions.

WANT TO FIGHT 1T OUT.

South Dakota Regiment Willing to Re-
main in Philippines and Fight 1t out.
Walter S. Doolittle writes an inter-
esting letter from the Philippines 10
his parents at Sioux Falls from which
the Argus-Leader makes some ex-
tracts. Lieut.. Doolittle is we'll known
in Mitchell, having run in here as fire.
man on the Omaha road for several
years, and the message from him is
quite interesting. The Argus.Leader
has the following concerning the letter:
Lieutenant Doolittle was at Manila
when the letter WAS written, where he
had been for several days having the
wound cared for That he received in the
battle Of Calumpit. The wound was not
severe one and after receiving it he
remained with his company. The con-
stant travel through the rice fields and
marshes irritated the wound SO that he
was obliged to 90 into Manila to have it
properly cared for. When the letter
was written he expected to go to the
front the next day. He also wrote that
Lieutenant Colonel Stover had been in
Manila several days on account of be-
ing overcome with heat. Colonel Sto.
yer went back to the regiment the day
this letter was written.
| Lieutenant Doolittle writes that the
health Of the South Dakota regiment is
the best of any on the island. There is
great deal OF sickness but the South
Dakota boys seem to stand it better
than the others. When he went into
Manila there were 320 privates and
seventeen officers in the city from sick
ness or WOUNDS. On the day the letter
WAS written there were less than 200
privales and only three officers on the
sick list in Manila. A great deal of the
sickness is caused from exhaustion and
the extreme heat. MIR. Doolittle seems
to share the same opinion as Lieuteu-
ant Fox and many others who have
written home that it will take many
more troops han are at present on the
island 10 successfully handle the insur-
gents. He says that it is no trouble to
whip them but after they are whipped
they will bob up in another location
and the same job has to be done over
again. If the United States govern
ment had enough troops on the island
to fortify each point as it was taken and
etill leave the same number in the field
that is doing the fighting 1T present he
thinks is would be but short time be.
fore the 'Niggars" would be thorough
ly whipped or driven into the sea
} Lieutenant Doolittle writes that he il
willing to stay there just as long ae
there is any fighting to do, but that be
will be glad when the fighting is over
He thinks he expresses the views ol
nine-tenths OF the volunteers on the
island. He further says that the feel.
ing is general among the boys that the
South Dakota troops will not leave
there for six months at least.

THINK CLARK Is FOUND.
Murderer Clark Thought to Have Been
Found Near Kimban, Dead.

Found Near KimbaIl, Dead.
II is strongly surmised that Stephen
Clark, who shot his wife and daughter
near belmont, in Douglas county, has
been found, but dead. The body of
man was found in small grove near
Newton, eight miles south of Kimball,
Saturday and the description tailed
with that OF Clark, lacking the rifle
and horse. The body was found by
some men who were looking for sheep
and were attracted to the grove by the
barking OF their dogs. They found the
body lying on the ground in decom-
posed state and it had been lying there
for several days as the odor had been
noticed as coming from that vicinity
for some time. There WAS bullet
hole in the mans head, and every thing
portended to the fact that he had sui
cided. On his body were two revol-
vers, both loaded and a large number
of cartridges, besides 1925 in money,
which, seemingly, dissolves any idea OF
murder. A Mr.. Stuyver from Kimball
was here Tuesday and stated it was the
general impression out there that the
body was that of Clark's. The remains
were taken up and buried.
The last seen or heard of Clark, prev
ious to this, was down in Charles Mix
county, where he was seen on this side
OF the river and was endeavoring to get
! on the other side. One newspaper ac-
count gave it that Clark joined his own
pursuers and learned their plans as to
how to effect his capture and that he
then left them. There is considerable
mystery about the suicide and if it is
Clark it ia difficult to understand why
he committed the act, as it was evident
he had eluded his pursuers.

SAYS COL. LINN Is ALL RIGHT

Chaplain Havens. of the g. A. r., Praises

Chaplain Havens, of the state de-
partment G.. A. r., wasn't pleased
with the criticism of the Soldiers Home
made by the Aberdeen W. r. G. He
was in Sioux Falls over Sunday and
stated to the Argus-Leader that he be-
lieved the recent report of the Aber-
deem W. R. G. criticising Col. Linn to
be deeply mistaken. He made thor
ough examination of the Soldiers
Home during his recent trip to Hot
Springs and found everything in good
order and 30 far as he could see under
the best of management. The food in
stead of being too poor for paupers,
was palatable, we'll cooked, of sufficient
abundance and variety. he took sew
eral meals at the Home, some OF them
without the knowledge o. the officers
and he testified to the good fare. At
his request two ladies of Dawson
county, housekeepers themselves, went
all over the Home and made q careful
examination. They reported every.
thing in good shape, all parts of the
building being neat and we'll kept
