known as Henry Robertson of Dell
Rapids.
This afternoon thee defense was
opened by Judge S. FL. Cochrane of
Logan, Iowa. He made a strong plea
for the accused and admitted that
there might be great deal of egotism
shown by Egan, but that that was no
cause for disbarrment. He threw. out
intimations that the O,Grady case
was only means to an end and that
back of it all was a real motive for
the attack upon his relatives. w. S.
Glase, ID. j. Conway and Judge Gatly
followed for the defense. Senator Kit
tredge presented nthe closing argu-
ment of the prosecution. He took
the position that the decision in this
case would set the standard required
by attorneys of the state, whether it
should be one of high moral standard
or one which would reflect against
the bar. In summing up the testi-
mony, he said that Egan had built a
magnificent Annanas club in and
about Sioux Falls.
An attorney, who declared he was
not prejudiced, stated that after the
supreme court had squeezed the wind
out of the evidence nothing would re-
main. The court took recess until
Monday next.

west Of Six Points few evenings ago. The evening was very warm but sud- denly they thought it was unusually hot They began to investigate and found the back of their buggy on fire. One of the boys ran across the road to a ranch to get water, the other-took the horse out, but their efforts were all in vain there was a bottle of oil in the buggy and when that caught on fire everything about a buggy that would burn went up in flames. The boys led their horse home feeling thankful they were not cremated.
 Some of the ranchers are getting careless with their water. They don't need to irrigate the road because it is plentiful.
 Mir. Ranton purchased a new surrey a few days ago.
 A prominent real estate man of these parts had some gentlemen looking over the country with the intention of To- eating and when they passed his own place they said that is bum looking place, I wonder what that man does who lives there; it must be a widow woman's place" So MT. Real Estate Man came home and told his wife that he would not bring any more pros- pective buyers along this road until things are shined up around here.
