CRAZY SCHOOL TEACHER AT
TEMPTED TO KILL HIS SISTER
IN-LAW.
Leeds, N. D., June 26.-Report was
received here Sunday, that Mr. Kline,
who a year or 80 ago taught the
school west of Leeds, had been MUIR
dered at Pleasant Lake. But later re-
ports show that instead of Kline being
killed, he had planned to kill his sis
ter-in-law and being frustrated in
that, attempted to shoot two men. He
wrote a letter to his sister-in-law, ask
ing her to be at the school house ait a
certain time in tine evening to go to a
party, and signed Mrs. M. E. Delam-
eter's name to it. Knowing that Mrs.
Delameter was sick, the folks con
cluded something was wrong and the
two men went to meet him. He was
armed with a gun and a large knife
and opened fire in the dark as oon as
he saw the men. One of them worked
up close behind. Kline and struck him
with a club knocking him out, which
gave rise to the story that he had
been killed. Sheriff Shaffner went
after Kline Monday and had him in
the Leeds cooler Monday night. 1t is
thought Kline is "off" in his mind and
the fellow with the club failed to put
anything into his head.

COWBOY OUT WEST.
Fargo, June 2G.-The report has
reached here that c. X. Skales, a cob
5o1ed man we'll known in this city, has
been killed at Miles City, Mont. The
report states that Skales was standing
in front of a hotel at Miles City when
a cowboy rode up and said Hello
Coon" Skales took the greeting as an
insult and pulled a gun whereupon the
cowboy roped him, dragged him to a
telegraph pole, strung him up and filed
his body with bullets. Skales last
visit to Fargo was during the early
winter. He came here from Harvey,
he was conducting a restaurant, and
became enamored of the daughter of
Mr.. Johnson, a colored man who is
employed as janitor in the First Ma
tional Bank block. Skales went to
the Johnson home the evening Of his
arrival in the city, and was chased up
street by johnson, who took a shot or
two at him just to keep him on the
move. He left town Immediately after
the cas- had been aired in court, and
the news from Montana is the first
that has some OF him since.
