DEATH OF MRS. DOTY.
Prominent Old Settler Passes Away
ut lthica, Michigan.

At 1CilCa, michigan.
Fred Beauchamp is in receipt of
word Of the death of Mrs. E. F. Doty,
formerly a resident Of Rapid City,
but for several years last past a resi-
dent Of Ithaca, Mich. When the writ
or came to Rapid City twenty-six
years ago Mrs. Doty's praises were on
every lip, and so great was the es-
TEEN in which she was held that one
could not help but envy her. Her re-
moval from this vicinity was greatly
regretted, and her passing on will
also be regretted. The Doty ranch,
west of town, and known at that time
as the Julia Heath ranch, later owned
by Mrs. S. Josie Hill, and now owned
by Chris Dow, was where they lived.
1t was most picturesque place, and
Rapid City people liked nothing bet
ter than go out there for days out
ing.
Mrs. Doty's death occurred Nov.
ember 6, at Ithaca, Mich, and the
newspaper Of that place has the fol.
lowing to say concerning her demise:

Months in the Pcnitentiary.
Mrs. Mary Harbour, who on Thurs
day was convicted Of manslaughter
in the second degree for the killing
of Miss Rose Rosso, commonly known
as Miss Rose Adams, her foster
daughter, was sentenced to serve
three years and eleven months at
hard labor in the state penitentiary
at Sioux Falls. by Judge Rice on
Saturday morning at nine o'clock.
Judge w. G. Rice, Of Deadwood,
before whom the trial was held, came
down on the morning train and i'm
mediately after court convened. Mrs.
Harbour was called in. She was &C.
companied by her sister, and other
than an apparent paleness and weak
ness, she showed no signs Of the
effect the verdict had on her. She
was represented by her attorney, h.
D. Bangs, and the state was repre-
scented by States Attorney Wood and
Attorney Gardner.
Mrs. Harbour was requested to
stand up, ana after reviewing the
case and stating that she had a fair
trial and been found guilty of man
slaughter in the second degree, Judge
Rice asked her If there was any legal
grounds why sentence should not be
passed upon her, to which her coun-
sci replied that there was none.
Judge Rice then stated to Mrs. Har-
bour that in the opinion of the court
she was very fortunate to receive so
low verdict and passed the sem
tence as given above. Because of a
provision Of the statute which says
that no prisoners shall be sentenced
SO that time would expire between
the first of November and the first
OF May OF any year, the sentence
passed by the court was the limit
Of the law for manslaughter in the
second degree.
Attorney Bangs gave notice of a
motion for new trial and a stay of
sentence Of thirty days was granted
in which the motion will be present.
ed to the court and argued. Pend
ing the decision on the motion for

The train service west of the river
has been interferred with consider

WANT CLUBS REVIVED.
Pierre Capital-Journal Has Some
Ideas as to Fedc <atiOn Meeting.


Pierre, S. D.. Nov. 20-Just now
Granville Jones is endeavoring to
raise some enthusiasm in the state
meet of the Business Mems Clubs,
says the Capital-Journal. The meet
ing will be at Deadwood in January.
1t is a good town to meet in and a
good business mems club is on tapis
at that place. But the business mems
clubs of the state like the immigra-
ton department seems to be about
half baked. Partly formed but not
we'll made. Mr.. Jones was selected
last year at Pierre to organize the
state. We do not know whether any
financial aid reached him or not, but
we do know he has been devoting his
time to democratic oratory along
lines that made him appear ridicu-
lons according to press dispatches,
and the commercial club business
like Topsy has just come along with
out any guiding hands. We had
hoped Mr.. Jones would be able to
give his time and voice, for the lat

to great extent, to boosting the state
instead Of political candidates. 1t is
evident one year has gone by with
most of the business mems clubs fos-
SLICED. Some new ones in the towns
west Of the river are alive Such
is always the case in a newly settled
country. But no concerted action Of
two or more clubs has been directed
toward anything Of general interest
to the state. We need some live
clubs. Aberdeen, Rapid City, Dead
wood, Philip and few other places
are active. But most towns are on
the dead list in this direction. The
Deadwood meeting has a mission be-
fore it.
