OIL IN ARTEsIAN WELLS.
indications That Both Oil and Gas Can
a.. Be Found.

Miller, S. D., Feb. 25.-The pro-
posed sinking of oil wells both
east and west of this part Of
the state has caused a close observ-
alton and inspection of the artesian
water that flows from one of the wells
of this town by one who is familiar
with oil bearing regions. At times
an oil forms on the water. At other
times the water is heavily charged
with gas These and other peculiar
mineral manifestations of the water,
mysterious to the u~nscientif1c mind, is
reason for the belief that oil, gas. and
possibly coal, underlies this section.
The uneducated Indians who camp
here on their north and south pilgrim
ages avoid the artesian water, believ-
ing IT possessed of an evil spirit, it's
sulphurous vaporings at times being an
omen of evil to them, but which their
white brother now believes may be the
sign of rich hidden treasures below.

INDIAN LANDS ARE EXEMPT.
State Cannot Tax Real or Persona.
Property on Reservations.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The United
States supreme court yesterday,
through Justice Harlan, rendered a de-
scision in the case of the United States
VS.. James A. Rickert, as county treas
Mrer of Roberts county, South Da-
kota. ~
The case was instituted under the
direction of the attorney general of the
United States for the purpose of re-
strafning the collection Of taxes on per
manent improvements and personal
property used on lands in tina county
owned by Indians, the lands being al
lotted n held in severalty.
r The opinion was delivered by JUS
tice Harlan, who held that neither the
lands held by the aliotteea, the peTna-
nent improvements nor the personal
property used for the cultivation of
the lands are subject to taxation. He
said that as the lands are held by the
United States in execution of it's plans
relating to the Indians without any
right in the Indians to make contracts
in reference to them or to do more
to convey n cultivate them,
there is no power in the state to assess
and tax the lands for state or NUM-
eipal purposes. This right could not,
he said, accrue until the lands are
patented.

Leather Wing Bat lmmured in Balti.
more Building in 1871 Still Lives.
Baltimore, Nd, Feb. 25.-A small
wooden box in a building in Charles
street holds captive a bat Of the or
binary leather wing" species, which,
according to all accounts, has had the
remarkable experience of being i'm
INJURED within a brick wall for the last
thirty-two years and is yet alive.
The bat was discovered last Wednes-
day walled UP in a small cavity made
by broken brick in 1871. The cavity
had been plastered over with mortar,
and while it is possible that some air
may have entered the miniature tomb
the entrance of O or light was praC-
ticaly impossible. In the same cavity
also was found the body Of another bat
which was dried into the semblance Of
a piece of black cloth, which rapidly
disintegrated when exposed to the air.
The live ba flew oun the room,
Knocked against a rafter, fell to the
floor, and was captured. 1t is still
alive.

TO SUCCEED LUCAS.
Tom Bishop of Salem May Be Corn
mandant of Soldiers Home.

Vermillion, S. D., Feb. 23.-Although
Commandant A. V. Lucas of the state
soldiers home at Hot Springs was exoner-
ated some time ago Of charges of misman-
agement of affairs at the home by a vote
of the three republicans comprising a ma
jority of the board of control, 1t Is now
evident that Lucas is scheduled for re-
tirement when his present term expires.
This is shown by the fact that man has
come to court to take his place. His
nc:1e is Tom Bishop of Salem. Whether
or not Mr.. Bishop is hampering for the
is not definitely known. but a
number of republican publications an
nounce their ultlmatum IN his behalf, and
this ma have some weight with Gov
ernor Herreid. Mrs. Bishop is conceded
to be a nan of character, and his APP
pointment would no doubt give universal
satisfaction.
All this points to vindication of Com
rade Van Osdel of Mission Hill, and Har-
vey Gunderson of his place, who at the
of the investigation of the charges
Lucas last fell, voted for his dis
missal.
The governor is said to nave come
around to their way Of thinking, 1t is said
will not consider his reappo.ntment when
his present term expires In July.

IDENTIFIED MURDERER.
Sensation Caused in Toledo Courtroom
When Sister Of Dead Woman De-

Toledo. o., Feb. 26.-"That,s the man
who split my sisters head open; that's
III man who killed my sister; that's
the man, there, there" cried aged Jo-
hanna Sullivan in court today when al
Wade was brought into the court room
to be tried On the charge of numbering
Kate Sullivan.
The Sullivan murder has been the
most profound mystery that the Toledo
police have had to deal with in years.
The crime was committed two years
ago. The victims were aged spinster
sisters. They were attacked in their
home just outside the city limits and
robbed, after Kate Sullivan had been
,brutally murdered. Johanna escaped
'And crawIed a mile for assistance,
bleeding p%rofusely with every move.
The arrest of Wade or the charge OF
being implicated created a genuine SEN
sation here, and the court room is too
small by far to accommodate the
crowds that flocked to hear the opening
Of the trial today. The alleged ident1h-
cation today created no little excite
ment.

NEW USE FOR HAIR PINS
Ohio Women Furnish Pointer on Keep
ina Your Cars Movina.

Columbus, o., Feb. 25.-The V e use-
full hairpin nee more proved itself an
Indispensable article late last night and
saved a carload of trolley passengers a
Walk of several miles over snow and
Zee. The last car on the May street
line last night was crowded and the
rails We're slippery with ice, so the car
crawled along with discouraging slow
ness. While near the out enc of the
line the fuse blew out. The motorman
found his supply of fuses exhausted
and the passengers for a time contem-
plated the prospect of walking a few
miles apiece. The motorman entered
the car and asked h women passen-
gers for contributions of hairpins. He
got a couple dozen Of them. The metal
was soft, but it was found that a hair
pin would carry the car four blocks be-
fore it melted. After that distance an
other was inserted. In this way the car
finally reached its destination. If there
lad been no women on the car all would
had to walk.

the anti-compact bill through the
house. both sides in the insurance war

when the senate will IKE up the anti

packers, will pass with u larger ma
jority than did the valued policy bill.

men to- keep members from becoming
iroWsy.
Some interest is promised in the SEN
ate by the judiciary report on senate

license law. While there will be a con-
test on the bill before it is disposed Of

their wishes to the people.
Both houses carried motions for ad-
journment owe Monday, and a num-
Der of the members left on the first

plenipotentiary, Bowen. has proposed
to the allies that the z a of Russia be
asked to name three arbitrators who as
The Hague tribunal shall decide the

spective foreign offices.
