A. Woods, formerly of Fort Dodge,
Iowa, is dead and John Laugan is under
arrest, having admitted that he COM
mitted the crime and asserting that it
was in self-defense Woods and Langan
owned and occupied adjoining claims,
and the day of the killing John Langan
and his Sons, Frank and Leo, were
erecting house on the fathers land.
According TO the story told by witnesses
Woods wanted the land for a brother,
who was to come on from Fort Dodge
and file contest against Langan. The
morning when John Langan commenced
the erection of his house, Woods, angered
because settlement was being made
upon the land, took dow his rifle and,
leaving home, started toward where the
Langans were at work. AS he came on
top of hill, zoo yards away, he opened
fire with a magazine gun, the bullets
flying in close proximity to the workers.
The Langan boys got behind pile of
lumber, but John Langan, the father,
seizing his rife, advanced toward Woods
and returned the fire. A dozen or more
shots were exchanged at distance Of
$50 yards, both men lying fiat on the
ground and secreting themselves as

Right Rev. VIM Hobart Hare, bishop
of the Episcopal diocese OF South
Dakota, died at Atlantic City, n. j /,
Saturday night, after a long illness. He
was ~ years OF age Bishop Hare suf-
fered from a complication of diseases,
resulting from his advanced years and
arduous labors in the west. Tie W. nt
east about six months ago because OF
his failing health, and took a cottage
there with his two sisters. Bishop Hare
served several Philadelphia churches
before he was consecrated bishop to all
the Indians in 1878. His residence was
at Sioux Falls, and upon the formation
of the two states of the Dakotas, he
became bishop of South Dakota. With
three exceptions he was the Oldest
bishop in the Episcopal church In
America Bishop William Hobart Hare,
of South Dakota, who died in Atlantic
City, will be succeeded by Right Rev.

The state board of corrections and
charities 10 in session in the Black Hills
with view to deciding upon the loca-
ton of the tuberculosis ssnatorium at
Custer. The board wanted to locate
the institution at some place with a
lower altitude, it being thought that the
elevation at Custer was higher than
would be to the best interests OF the
patients. With this end in view. 1t was
contemplated locating the senatorium
near Hermose. The conclusion has
been reached, however, that the law
enacted last winter by the Legislature
for the establishment Of such an insti-
tuition at Custer is mandatory, and the
members Of the board, therefore made
an additional trip to look into the mat
ter. The business mems club of Custer
has offered to donate 160 acres and has
also submitted several sites. 1t is
expected that decision will be reached
in the next few days. DIR. Rate,
through whose efforts the bill was
passed, holds TO the belief that Custer is
the best place for such an Institution.
He says that the altitude is not too
high and that the fine air and the heal
ing odors OF the pine make it an ideal
place for tubercular patients.

bead on Woods head and sent bullet
into his brain, causing instant death.
Langan walked over to the body, and,
realizing that Woods was dead, he

Change IN Method Of Handling

WILL INTRODUCE An ORDINANCE
SEGA is to Have Matter Thoroughly
Investigated, With View CT Asking
Legislative for Amendment to City
chsrter--cemmlttee Agree That
Something Must be Done.

what this city needs is n business
manager, and some time In the near
future am going 10 introduce an
ordinance with the view of making
a change in the method CT conducting
the affairs of the city government,
said Alderman c. ID. West during a
meeting of the finance committee OF
the city council last night.
Mr.. West went on 10 say that II
was Impossible TO conduct the affairs
OF the city upon the best and most
economical basis under the present
system. and that the municipal bust
ness needed the constant attention OF
an able, active business man. His
idea Is 10 have the matter thorough
~ investigated with the view of ap-
plying TO the legislature for an
amendment TO the charter that will
permit the establishment of new
system.
The matter was not discussed to any
extent but all the members of the
committee seemed to agree upon the
proposition that something will have
to be done when real estate Is re-
assessed next year. Mr.. Ford sug-
gcsted that the city would have 10
apply to the legislature fer an amend
mcnt to the charter In order to In
crease the tax rate.
