NEARER THE RESERVATION
ElkhOrn's Verdigris Extension Slowly
Reaching Out to the North,
TEN MORE MILES ARE ALMOST READY
Branch Line Into New Country Will
BE Completed and I'm Operation
in Time to Handle the
Fall business,

The Elkhorn is gradually getting nearer
the portion of the Rosebud Indian reserva-
ton to be opened in the near future. Ten
miles more Of It's Nlobrara branch, which
extends from Verdigris. the old terminus,
has been completed, or will be by Saturday
night. General Manager Bidwell stated
that by that time the line would be finished
as far as Virdel, which is twenty-one miles
from Verdigris. This last ten miles has
been finished since about July 4.
1--WE have no doubts now that our line
will be completed by September" said Mr..
Bidwell, "for we have all the material and
help required and are progressing with I'M
usual facility with the work. There was
some talk that we undertook the construo-
ton of this piece of road. because we be-
lieved the Rosebud reservation was 10 be
opened by the congress just adjourned and
that since congress at the first session did
not throw open the reservation, we had
abandoned our plan of construction. l
wish to say that this is not true in any
particular. We were not Influenced at all
by the matter of the opening Of the reserv-
atioE and are proceeding with our work re-
CARELESS Of the action OF congress in de-
ferring the admission OF settlers to the
Rosebud and will have 1t completed and in
operation long before the winter session,
which will afford the first opportunity for
congress to act"
where the Road Runs.
When completed the Niobrara branch will
cover a distance Of sixty-seven miles. ex-
tending from Verdigris TO two and a half
miles west of Bonesteel. This traverses
Boyd county, Nebraska. and Gregory
county, South Dakota. and will be the first
railroad through that section. The ElkhOrn
intends to erect stations at every town
along the road as soon as possible. The
extra mileage beyond Bonesteel is for stock
yard imposes.
The road will not be thrown open for
transportation by regular trains until the
construction work reaches Lynch. which is
thirteen miles west Of Virdel, the point of
completion now. Construction trans, Cen
eral Manager Bid we'll says. will be used for
all business up to that point. The line will
pass through every town along the general
route traversed, except Butte. which It will
have to skip owing TO the abrupt elevation,
which is not accessible to construction OF
transportation.
As there are $500 quarter sections OF
land in that part Of the Rosebud reservation
TO be opened, and which will be tapped by
the new road, the Elkhorn count on driving
the opening wedge to a settlement Of some
20, 600 people and the opening up Of a very
fertile strip Of country to permanent home
steaders.

President Hill Of the Great Northern sought
to get hold of the Milwaukee a year and y
half ago during the great Wall street bat
tie which resulted in his defeating Harri-
man for the acquisition Of the Burlington.
1t was Hills original plan to capture the
Milwaukee, but falling in this he set his
nets for the Burlington and after a des-
perate conflict with the Union Pacific peo-
pie landed hat property.
But the Union Pacific never quits and

had captured the very road which Mr.. Hill
wanted and failed to getNand, therefore, he
has handed the great northwesterner a
stiff upper cut for acquisition Of the

powerful Hartman rival to the Hill roads
in the northwest"
1t is believed that the plans announced
by the Milwaukee Of beginning the ex-
tension Of its line to Seattle, from It's vest

ried through now without delay and that

CHARGED WITH MURDER.
p. H. Harrington, Alleged Member Of
Brady GANG.

Clarion, May 29.-P II. Harrington
was arrested here by Sheriff Duer for
the murder of Marshal Smith, at Chel-
sea, last December. Harrington, with
two other men, attempted to rob the
bank of Chelsea. They were discover.
ed by the town marshal Smith, who
was killed in running fight with the
three men. Sheriff Buchanan of Tama,
took the prisoner to Toledo, where
Harrington will stand trial.
Harrington is alleged to be mem
Der of the Brady gang, which caused
the banks of central and northern Iowa
so much trouble last fall and winter.
George McDonal, Harry Edwards and
Sam Page, other members of the gang,
were arrested three months ago at
Camden Point Mo-, where they had at
tempted to rob bank. They were
followed by posse and captured near
the east end of the Fl. Leavenworth
bridge, and all three were sentenced
to ten years in the Missouri peniten-
tiary for the job. 1t was known at
the time that one of the members of
the gang was at large and Pinkerton
detectives have been on the lookout
for Harrington ever since. He is be-
lieved to be the man who fired the
shot that killed Marshal Smith.

indicate that they had been taken from

JUDGE WEAVER ALONE plsssNTs
Prejudice and Circumstances We're
Against Sarah Kuhn.

Des Moines, May 29.-With Justice
Weaver dissenting the supreme court
affirmed the action of the trial court
at Sigourney in sending pretty, young
Sarah Kuhn TO Fl. Madison penitep.
tiary for life for the murder Of her
husband, who was twice her age, Grip,
pied in two legs, one arm and one hand
and afflicted with impotency, defect
that had been concealed from her pri,
or TO her marriage which occurred
four months before he died from the
effects of poison in his beer.
II was shown on trial that she had
clandestinely met Andrew Smith, her
former lover, few days before the
murder, that she had upbraided Smith
for marrying another girl after she
married Kuhn and that on the night
before the murder she quarreled with
her husband. Justice Weaver dissents,
however. on the ground that there was
manifest prejudice in the neighbor-
hood shown against Mrs. Kuhn and
that is was not shown positively that
death was not suicidal.
A will was drawn by Kuhn in August
few weeks before his death. in which
he gave all his property to his wife in
event of death. This and the inti-
macy between her and Smith is re-
garded as calculated by Justice Weaver
TO work great prejudice against the
defendant in the community and 1t Is
believed by him prevented the giving
of fair consideration of her claim
that il poison was in Kuhn's beer, he
took his own life, despite his dying
declaration in the presence OF others
that his wife had poisoned him.

BRAKES GRAND VICTORY.
Makes Total of 66Ia Points in State
Field Meet.

Des Moines, May 29.-Drake univer.
sity won the state college field meet
yesterday so handily that the other
colleges were simply distanced. 1t
was a landslide, from which brakes
opponents had to dig mighty hard to
get out without being utterly crushed.
At the close Drake had 661a points
checked up to her credit. while her
closest opponent, the State university,
could only muster 1917 Iowa college
showed up with IA, the State Agricul-
tural fourth with IL and the rest trail
ed after with the remaining rs points
divided among them. 1t was the most
complete victory achieved by any
school in recent years. Seven state
records were broken in the meet They
were the half-mile run, hammer throw,
120-yaTd hurdles, pole vault, mile BIZ
cycle race, discus throw and the half.
mile relay race. The state record in
the 220-yard hurdles was equalled.
Charles Pell, of Drake university.
was the high-point man of the meet
with 1211 points. Thompson and
Young, of Drake, took in 10 points
each. Altogether Drake gathered in
IL firsts out of II events. Probably
the most creditable work was done by
Drake in the hammer throw, when her
man exceeded 139 feet.
