A CRACkSMAN'S CAMPAIGN.
Start Systematic Campaign Against
Small Towns in South Dakota,

Small Towns in South Dakota.
Sioux City, S. D.. Aug. 15.-Special
to The News: 1t has become known
that several expert cracksmen have ar
rived in the state, preparatory to car
rying on systematic campaign
against the smaller banks, postoffices
and business houses of the smaller
towns and unless precautions are
taken at once such robberics will
be more frequent throughout the state
this fall than during former years.
South Dakota in the past. during
the fall months, has been a favorite
field of action for the yeggmen, and
the great crop raised in the state this
season and the abundance of money
In banks and other institutions of
the various towns, will this fall be an
extra incentive for the cracksmen to
operate in South Dakota.
For weeks a steady tide of harvest
hands has been pouring into the state
and now there are thousands of strang-
ers in the state, being distributed in
every community. This makes 1t easy
for the expert craftsmen to conceal
their identity and attract little atten-
ton, for strangers are so numerous
that no attention Is paid to them, they
all being classed as harvest hands.
BY mixing with the harvest hands
ard pretending to be harvest hands
themselves the craftsmen have every
opportunity during visits to the towns
to "size up" the various banks, as
certain the likelihood of making a good
haul and securing the clay" of the
bank and postofiice buildings with ref
erence to other buildings in the i'm
mediate vicinity.
AS a precaution against robberies
of local institutions the authorities of
some of the towns already have en-
gagged night watchmen, who will COM
pei every stranger found on the
street after midnight to give an ac-
count of themselves. Every one of the
smaller towns of the state, to be on
the safe side, should engage night
watchmen and retain their services
until winter sets in and compels the
craftsmen to seek warmer climes.
1t Is expected that many of the
banks in smaller towns also will en-
gage private watchmen and thus frus.
trate any plans cracksmen may have
to rob the institutions.

severn April ~.
Cambridge, Mass, Jan. 6-The manager
of the Harvard varsity crew announced
last night that Harvard would row the
midshipmen of the navy at Annapolis on
the Severn on April p. the race taking
the place Of the customary one with Co
lumbia on the Harvard schedule
This will be Harvard's first rowing con
test with the mdshipmen. At the same
time the Harvard baseball team will
make its headquarters at Annapolis. and
will probably meet the Navy in one or
more games.
Annapolis, Md, Jan. 6.-The announce
ment that race has been arranged be-
tween the Navy and Harvard eights on
the Severn River was received by the
brigade Of midshipmen this afternoon
with delight, as the Navy rowing man
agement has found It difficult to schedule
two-mile races for the coming season.
It was said at the Naval Academy that
the race within Harvard may hereafter
take the place of the annual Navy Yale
race. In fact the policy of the Navy
rowing authorities may be radically
changed after this year. Last year for
the first time the Navy was allowed to
send a crew To the intercollegiate race at
Poughkeepsie. This Is now the big racing
event OF the season for the Navy. and as
it is over a fOur-mile course, whereas
the Severn course is a two-mile one, 1t Is
thought likely that the Navy may drop
its two-mile races unless the crew is
more successful this year on the Hudson
than It was last.
