Deputy Sheriff Has Fight for His Life
But Lands His Men,

Valley Springs. S. d., July 3.-As the
result Of a desperate encounter with two
desperadoes. Deputy Sheriff Urquhart sue
ceeded In arresting both his assailants.
One of them. Emil Anderson, has been SEN
fenced to a term of twenty days in the
county jail in this city and fined $50, but
he took an appeal to the state circuit court
and furnished a bond for his appearance
in that court. Arthur Anderson. a brother
OF Emil. is the other offender. He also has
been arrested. He is suffering from a blow
over the head which he received at the
hands of IL member of a citizens posse
which went to the rescue of the deputy
sheriff.
1t is said the Anderson brothers delight
IN terrorizing the citizens of Valley
Springs at frequent intervals and have
proved a source of great annoyance to the
people OF this place. 1t is predicted that
they will yet be shot dead by some angry
citizen If they persist In their wild west
methods of ~endeavoring to stampede the
Valley Springs people.
The assault upon Deputy Sheriff Urqu-
hart occurred soon after the officer and
his son stepped from an Omaha railroad
train at the Valley Springs depot after IL
visit out of town. The officer and his son,
with a lantern. started to walk up the
railroad track to the Urquhart home. stu
ated about a mile out. When a few hun-
dred feet from the depot the Anderson
brothers attacked the officer with a show
or of stones and rocks. and Immediately
rushed the deputy sheriff and bore him to
the ground. in the meantime raining blow
after blow upon him. The boy ran back
to the village for aid, crying that his
father was being killed. A posse was soon
formed and when the excited citizens
reached the scene of the encounter be-
tween MIR. Urquhart and the Andersons
they found the officer lying on the railroad
track Exhausted and bleeding. One of the
citizens struck Emil Anderson with q club
knocking him down, and was In turn
struck and badly injured by Arthur An
derson.
The Andersons succeeded in making
their escape for the time being, but az
soon as the deputy sheriff recovered he
swore out warrants for the arrest Of his
