Oonon Doyle is perhaps the most ia.

first won fame by these very stories.

Inhuman Brute.

From 4lnoe OpNo.
Ralph Emerson. . young mSn Of Dee
Laos, is badly wanted by the officers Of
Ward county. and II he is apprehsndsd
there u probably . LIES sentence
in the psnitentisry awaiting him.
A week ago last Sunday, Miss Julia
Lydek returned to her homo near Des
Laos in badly exhausted, excited and
sattsrsd condition. Her clothing was
badly torn. her hair disbeveled. her
body bruised and her face scratched
and bleeding. She stated that while
passing q cluster of willows she had
been overpowersd by man. who drag
Red her into the brush, and after .
fierce struggle succeeded in accomplish
ing his hellish purpose. She said that
she cried for help. but that the place
was isolated and that her screams died
on the long prairie distances before
they reached the ears OF any person
that might haye rescued her from her
horrible fate. After the awful deed
had been committed, the girls assailant
bid her to keep silent if she valued her
life and then disappeared across the
prairie.
Tho girl was 90 frightened that she
feared death if she divulged the name
of her assailant and several hours
passed before her parents could per.
suade her to disclose the identity Of the
brute Who had assaulted her. The girl
at length con fessed that Ralph Emer-
son, a we'll known young maa Of the
nsighborhood had raped her. but fearful
lest he would do her greater bodily
harm insisted that no action be taken
and that the matter be dropped.
The matter, however, was promptly
reported to the officers and a search
was at once instituted for the young
brute, but no trace could be found. and
it 10 believed that he has crossed the
line and is now hiding in Canada.

Land Will be Lost if Booze is

Washington, March 23.-Registers
and receivers of the United States land
Offices in Arizona. California. Colorado,
Idaho. Kansas, Montana, Nebraska,
New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma,
Oregon, South Dakota. Utah, Washing
ton and Wyoming, were today inst ructed
by Commissioner Richards. Of the
general land Office, to notify all persons
who have heretofore inferred or who
may hereafter enter any Of the lands
which have been segregated. under
provision of the reclamation act of June
II, 1902, that leasing such lands, or por-
tons thereof to other persons, who
have been and are conducting the
business Of selling alcoholic liquors on
said lands. principally to employees
engaged in government works.. that
such leasing either, by themselves or
others will be deemed sufficient Cause
for cancellation of entries embracing
lands 80 occupied. Officials of the land.
Offices are further directed to give the
widest publicity TO the fact that such
use 0: the lands withdrawn under this
act, whether such lands have been
entered or are re.entered, will be pre-.
vented by proper actions in ejeotment,
by injunction or other wise. These
instructions have been called forth by
the deplorable conditions existing in
Nevada, where government work
employs several thousand mon.
Homesteaders haye leased q portion of
their lands to persons engaged in the
liquor business and murder and robbery
have been rampant, In consequence
the commissioner decision is likely to
correct these conditions and will
undoubtedly prevent their occurrence
in other sections where the govern
ment is about to engage upon similar
works.
