Physicians have within recent years
made closer investigation into the phe-

to base calculations on purely physiological

facts Of political, social and economic ma

The variations of the curve of mortality
are almost analogous in all countries when

CITY AND COUNTY
CONTINUE LITIGATION

Centerville, s. D.. July 24.-The case
Of the city of Centerville against FUR
ner county, brought to recover the sum
of 81, 200 overcharges for the collection
of taxes, has just been modified by de-
cision of supreme court. holding that
the statute OF Limitation uns against
all sums retained by the county more
than six years prior to the commence
ment of the action.
The city contends that the county is
entitled to but j per cent for collecting
city taxes, instead OF 4 per cent, the
amount actually retained by the county.
In this contention the city has been
sustained by the supreme court, but is
not allowed to go back more than six
years. In regard to the statute OF linn
~itation. the city contends that the legal
relationship existing between county
and city In collection OF taxes is a A.
duciary one; hat in the collection of
city taxes the county was acting as a
trustee. and that all taxes SO collected
belong to the city and not the county;
that the statute of Limitation never
runs against a trust fund. The city
intends to move for a ~rehearing in the
supreme court.

covers from the prostration resulting
from hearing OF the sons predicament.
The brother In Chicago, who wrote
the sheriff hat he would have moth
ing to do with Emil, has also answered
the call, claiming that he is just re-
covering from a siege of sickness and
will come to Aberdeen and give all the
assistance possible. The minister,
writing for the parents, says that Emil
was his pupil when a boy and he was
"a good boy then"
The finding of the guns with which
the murder was committed was a
clever piece OF detective work in which
a prisoner in the Jail with Victor won
his confidence far enough to cause him
to divulge the place where he had
left the guns.

beyond a doubt that Emil Victor has
confessed TO the sheriff and states at

near Rudolph. two weeks ago.
The officials are trying to keep the
matter secret to avoid an attempt at
lynching, which il is feared would fol-
low public knowledge of the prisoners
confession of the awful crime.
The fact OF the confession is borne
out by the finding of the two revolvers
near Nellette as the result OF infor-
nation given by Victor to a fellow
prisoner who is said TO have been con-
fined with him for the purpose or Sc
curing the information.
Judge Frank McNulty, of this cir
cult, is expected to call a special term
OF court here soon to hear the case, as
the regular term is not due until DC
tober, and there is strong local senti-
ment In favor of having the case dis
posed OF as sooa as possible.
