BURNED HIS BUILDING
i. H. Hillard Confessed to Compli-
city in Burning His Store and
Got -Four and a Half Years,

NoU AO&AA AAk&A q AA611A q
State Fire Marshall Frank A. Craft
returned Friday evening from How
ard after doing a bit of detective
work that for results obtniaed would
make Sherlock Holmes turn green
with envy. The case grew out of
the destruction by fire at Howard on
the night of September 22nd of a
restaurant belonging to j. H. Hillard
of Pipestone. A young lady named
Lonza Russell had charge of the
restaurant at the time of the fire and
was supposed to have made her es-
cape from the burning building in
her night clothes at 1870 in the
morning.
The fire and the manner in which
it a set first aroused the suspi-
cions of the Howard chief of police,
R. B. Debolt, and in reporting to
State Insurance Commissioner Bas-
ford at Pierre he called attention to
the fact that on a building worth
$1,000 insurance was carried amount.
ing to $4,000. This was at once re-
ported here to Mr.. Craft who set to
work. g
A short Investigation and his sus-
picions were directed to Miss Russell,
who had left Howard and gone to
Sioux Falls to live. He followed her
there and after three days of clever
work and one gruelling examination
of the woman, which lasted for 90
hours, he secured "a signed confess
sion from her which implicated fully
Mr.. Hillard, the owner Of the prop
erty. Hillard had been drawn to Sioux
Falls, ostensibly to make an adjust
ment with the insurance company for
his loss, and was there arrested by
the sheriff. He was taken to Howard
on Wednesday and there confronted
with the confession made by Miss
Russell. He waived examination and
his bonds were fixed at $4,000. The
day following he weakened and ex-
pressed a desire to confess and Judge
Taylor was called from Huron Thurs
day.
The papers were then perfected
and the plea of guilty entered by Hill
ard. Judge Taylor imposed a sen
tence of four years and six months in
the state penitentiary. This was a
case of swift Justice and for which
Mr.. Craft should receive much credit.
Mr.. Craft had the assistance in the
matter. of States Attorney E. T. Grua
of Miner county.
The confession of the girl shows
that she set fire to the restaurant
building by pouring gasoline on the
floor and under the counters. She
then had gone to the residence of a
neighbor where she gave the alarm.
The confession shows that Mr.. Hill
ard had hired the girl to commit
arson about two weeks before while
or a visit there, for which he agreed
to cancel a debt she owed him OF
SIS. and to buy her q good suit. Also
that he had outlined to her Just how
to proceed to set the fire and how to
act afterwards SO as to avoid suspi-
cion. No disposition has as yet been
made of the girl.

She had just bought n canary. and
he dealer was telling her what atten-
tions were necessary for the birds
welfare. He mentioned the proper
feeding. the daily bath. the cutie
bone for sharpening the bill. and fin
ally mentioned the fact that the little
singer must have n regular pedicure.
"Pedicure," exclaimed the buyer
How in the world will have to give
shat?"
That's easy enough when you once
get used to it," the dealer told her.
In the first place. the feet have to be
kept scrupulously clean. If they are
not the bird will not live long. And
then the nails have to be kept clipped.
II they are allowed to grow too long.
the bird will not be able to get a good
grasp on anything If he is let fly

cut almost as often as those OF a per-
son. and It is equally important.
