Did SHEPHERD DIE
WITH BLASTING LIE
PASSING HIS LiPSii
Enemy Of Cox Lied or Was
Mistaken When He Named
Assailant Who Shot Him.

Custer. s. D. July 4.-Did Frank
Shepherd, animated by a hatred for F.
M. Cox, go to his death with lie on
his lips when he made the ante mortcm
statement accusing Cox of killing him?
This Is the question that Is agitatlng
this community. Shepherd was shot
and killed last week and Just before he
lied declared that Cox had done the
shooting. At first the statement was
accepted, but later developments are
tending to prove that 1t was either
.alse or incorrect.
Cox and his son Henry have been
working at the Ideal mine. On the
eight OF the murder Cox claims to have
gone to bed at o'clock and this state
ment Is substantiated by the men at
the Ideal boarding house. II this Is
true Cox was at the time of the mur-
der three miles away from the spot
where II occurred. Cox is an old man
and Il is said to be a physical impos-
sibility for man Of his age to have
covered the three miles to Shepherds
place over a mountain road between
the time Cox was seen to go to bed
and the time of the killing. The case
has aroused great deal OF interest in
the southern hills and sentiment, which
at first was strong against Cox, Is now
entirely In his favor, as II Is believed
that either Shepherd was lying or mis-
taken when he said that Cox did the
deed.

KIDNAPER RETAINS
CUSTODY OF CHILDREN

Sioux Falls, S. D., July 4.--The COM
picated kidnapping case which was the
center of excitement In Sioux Falls
Monday afternoon has developed to Il
legal possession Of the children by the
"kidnapers," and the return Of the two
little girls, Lorraine and Evelyn, with
their father, Harvey +. Fry, to Lock-
port. n. Y. Mrs. Fry had not returned
TO Sioux Falls from Rock Rapids up to
last evening. and her friends here had
received no word from her. giving them
the belief that she had gone with the
children.
w. +. DOty, In a message yesterday,
stated that Mr.. Fry was his cousin,
and that he had been released and had
taken the children to New York, there
being no ground for the detention at
Rock Rapids.
According to a decree handed down
In the New York courts in March, Mrs
Fry was granted the custody Of the
children until June 20 of this year, Af-
ter which Mr.. Fry was to have posses
sion Of the children for a year. and so
on alternately. Thus, Mrs. Fry has not
been In legal possession of the children
since June 25
The decree given in the New York
courts was legal separation, but was
not a divorce.

warning! Take heed, say Master
Dutchman, and be silent!" he repeated,
leaning forward and clapping his hand
upon the table.
l touched Master Lindstrom's sleeve,
who would Of himself have persisted, and
staid him. 1T is of no use," muttered.
THAT dog in a crochet has condemned
me. He will have his way!"
There was short debate between
the three judges, while in the court
you might have heard a pin drop.
Master Lindstrom had fallen back once
more. / was alone again. and the
stained window seemed to be putting
forth its mystic influence to infold me,
when, looking up, saw tiny shadow
nit across the soft, many hued rays
which streamed from 1t athwart the
roof. 1t passed again, once. twice,
thrice. 1 peered upward intently. 1t
was swallow flying to and fro amid
the carved work.
Yes. a swallow, and straightway
forgot the judges. forgot the crowd.
The scene vanished, and was at Cotton
End again, giving Martin Luther the
nest for Petronilla. a sign, as / meant
1t then, that I should return. I should
never return now. Yet my heart was
on a sudden so softened that, instead
or this reflection giving me pain, as
one would have expected, IL only filled
me with great anxiety to provide for
the event. She must not wait and
watch for me day after day, perhaps
year after year. l must see to It some
how, and was thinking with such in
tentness of this that II was only vague
