PLEA
mot GUILTY"
Large Number of Witnesses
On Both Sides

Emil Victor, accused Of the muir
der of four persons at Rudolph, has
declared to the court that he is not
gully and will stand trial upon this
charge of murder.
Following this plea. which was en-
tered by the prisoner Tuesday fore
noon, Judge McNulty ordered Sher-
if Anderson to summon a special
panel of fifty men to report Aug.
q, when the work Of selecting a
jury from them will be COM
mencad.
Not guilty"
In these words Emil Victor ans
wered to the charge of numbering
the three members of the Chr istie
family and Michael Romano in
the early morning of July 3.
When called before Judge Nc
Nulty in the special sitting of the
circuit court this forenoon he stood
and in voice not heard far beyond
the judges station murmured mot
guilty"
This means that there will be
trial and the court adjourned i'm
mediately after the plea was enter
ed, and Sheriff Anderson will at once
begin the task of impanelling a
jury.
This promises to be a big job on
account of the wide publicity that
the trial has had through the news
papers and the chief delay will be
in that proceeding. The attorneys,
however, believe that there will be
no serious difficulty in reaching an
agreement upon twelve men in
whom to trust the distribution of
justice to the prisoner.
With the information which was
filed by the state list of fifty-four
witnesses was filed. and it is likely
that the defense will have number,
although perhaps not as many. 1t
is stated that the trial will proceed
at once and without any Unnecessary
delay. ....
Court was adjourned till 2 o'clock
this afternoon in order that the at
torneys may have time to outline
their plans and at that time hear the
report of Sheriff Anderson as to
when he will be able to bring in the
first veniremen for the jury. This
will probably be ten days hence

SOUTH DAKOTA'S
TARGET TEAM
One of The Largest Teams
To Be Sent

Watertown, S. D., Aug. 9.-After
a months hard work on the part of
about fifty participants. the team to
represent the state of South Dakota
at the Nation al rifle competitions to
be held at Camp Perry, Ohio, under
the direction of the war department,
beginning August %, was selected
at Camp Roosevelt.
The team will have as It's captain,
Adjutant General C. H. Englesby of
Watertown. The team coach will be
Lieut.. w. A. MCGEE of Sturgis, who
has been promoted to the grade of
first lieutenant and assigned to duty
on the staff of adjutant general.
The teams spotter will be Lieut.. II.
T. Jensen of Bookings.
Following are members of the
team: Capt H. G. Boocock, 1t. L.
r. Fridley of C company. Maj. j.
w. Edmunds. First Sgt D. C. Bear
separate company B, First Sgt. l..
D. MCGEE of X company, Sgt J. T.
Grisby of B company, Sgt. F McDer-
mot of X company, sgt. J. f. Ham.
mon X company, Pri. E. E. Ham
mon of X company. Cory. F. c.
Matheno of G company, PR. O..
Hanson of B company. Alternates:
1t. J. McNenny of X company. Pri.
G. w. Philips of c company. and
Pri. o. L. Heating of B company.
The members of the team and the
three alternates during their pre-
liminary practice qualified in the
expert craftsmanship class, which
in the regular army would entitle
each man to five dollars month in
crease in his pay. There will pro-
baby be no team sent to Camp
Perry this year with so many expert
riflemen. and those who have been
keeping in progress with the firing
are confident that the South Dakota
team will make an excellent record
for itself and it will get in some of
the prize money offered by the war
department.

DRUGGISTS FIND ECZEMA CURE

The local druggist is naturally slow
to recommend remedy for any
disease he will make a recommends
| ton as a rule, only after he has been
| thoroughly convinced For he is not
looking merely for one sale but must
have permanently the confidence of his
customers.
Perhaps no remedy in the druggist s
stock has been more widely endorsed
by druggists themselves than the
specific eczema cure, oil of winter
green. thymol and glycerine. as COM
pounded in D. D. d. Prescription.
Among hundreds of letters from
prominent druggists we quote a few:
Mr. Higginson of the Higginson Drug
Co, Wichita, Kansas. says:
we have a number of very enthusi-
astic people who have been cured by ID.
D. D. Prescription. These cured patients
do as much to increase the sales as any
advertising. You cannot make your ad-
vcrtising too strong. as we are ourselves
enthusiastic in pushing the goods
