Lucky shot Watson twice, once in
the breast and the second time
through the head The shooting,
which followed quarrel between
the men over negress, was wit

affair was not reported to the white
men of the camp for some time after
the shooting. Lucky in the meantime

to Winnemucca, reaching here be-

shooting and boarded an eastbound
train.
The wounded negro was placed in

FIRST FATALITY IN MILL

old son Of Rev. David Hofer, of the
GAINESVILLE Mennonite colony, was killed
in the colony flour mill by getting his
clothing caught in a shaft as he was
playing in the basement. This is the
first fatality the mill has had in thirty
years experience.
e. S. Sandven of this county. who
lost his wife and only son in the recent

and the two funerals took place yes

burned so badly she died In a few
hours. The son fingered for several
days and then passed away. Mr.. Sand
Ven is very badly burned, too, caused
by trying to rescue his family from
the blazing house, which caught fire
from a lighted lamp, which started a
rapid fire as the house turned over.

STATE 10 GET THE
WEALTH OF MOST
BEAUTIFUL WOMAN
Curious Mixup in the Financial
Affairs of Late Prominent
Couple.

Deadwood, s. D., May 21.-With no
known relatives to claim her estate
and with no known will existing, the
wealth Of the late Mrs. John r. Will
son, a member of the woman board
OF managers Of the Worlds fair, q
graduate OF a New York law school
and one of the most beautiful women
in the state of South Dakota, will prob
ably pass to the state and become an
asset OF the school fund.
The condition of this estate is almost
unique in the annals Of the state.i In
January, last, Mr.. Wilson died, leaving
aside from his own and liabil-
went to his wife. and which could
not be touched for the debts OF
his estate. Mrs. Wilson survived him
only three months and died without
making a will. AS the insurance which
he had left, had become part OF her
estate, it could not be touched for
the debts of his, and, in the absence
OF relatives and of a will, the money
must needs go to the state. \
A curious feature of the case is that
a shor time before her death Mrs.
Wilson told a relative of her husband,
that in the new part OF her house
was concealed g, secret closet or drawer.
She went so far as to designate where
the key to this hidden recess would
be found, but still gave no inklirg as
Go Liz .oCdllOl VI llt closet.
Hunt for Closet Futile.
Since her death, believing that if
there is a VIII, it may be found in Iii
secret drawer, a thorough search of the
house has been made in an attempt
to locate this hiding place. The house
is an old one, to which extensive
additions have been made. One of the
carpenters who built the last addition
Vas located. He said that another ear
penter, who has since dropped out OF
sight, would be the only man who
would know if such q place existed.
He. however, suggested three places
in which a secret drawer might have
been put. Thorough search, however,
has thus far been futile. No trace of
the hiding place can be found, and it
is thought that this statement Of Mrs.
Wilson may have been one of the de-
1Esions of illness. The beautiful furn-
ishings of the house lave been sold at
public sale and are being scattered
about the country, while one unusual
and interesting feature of a remark
able case is this: 1t was Mrs. Wilson'S
custom to keep an account in a New
York bank, and at the time Of her
death, she had several thousand dol.
lars there. This has been levied on,
according to the law concerning in
heritance tax in that state and the
amount coming to the school fund will
be short several hundred dollars.
