Eight hundred thousand acres of
land on the Crow reservation, Mon
tana, comprising one of the largest
allotments ever offered at public sale
in that country, was put up at auction
Saturday at Billings in pursuance Of
the recent orders of the President and
Secretary of the Interior. The lands
are suitable principally for dry farm
ing and grazing and brought good
prices.
The first time the suffrage question
was voted onin South Dakota it was
defeated by 23,790 majority. The
last time, in 1898, it lost only 1926.
The tremendous gain in sentiment in

MINISTER PLEADS GUILTY.

Rev. Clinton Dewitt Sharpe, who
has maintained his innocence OF the
charge of abducting 14-year-old Eunice
Whitaker from her home in Schenec-
tady, n. Y, last June, changed his
plea to guilty when arraigned in the
Supreme Court in Schenectady, yester-
day, and now faces term OF 10 years
in prison, 81 900, or both.
"Clinton Dewitt Sharpe, you are in
dicted by the grand jury for abducting
14-year-old Eunice Whitaker, and TAX
ing her away for improper purposes,
she not being your wife, declared Dis
trict Attorney Briggs"
Sharpe, dressed in black and wearing
a black bow necktie, answered in a
clear voice: II plead guilty, but wish
to say that no harm was intended when
I took the girl away. Ienter that plea
merely in order to save trouble and ex-
pense."
The evangelist spoke for himself,
having no lawyer. Sharp, after two
months absence, gave himself up to
the Kansas City police and was taken
back to Schenectady. Miss Whitaker,
who rebuked her parents when first re-
turned to Schenectady is anxious to see
Sharpe, 60 to Jail now and to return
to her home, which she had not seen
in four months. She is in the custody
of the humane society, at present.

ACROSS THE CONTINENT ON
SKATES,

Abe Levin and Max Brody, Is years
old, have just completed a trip from
New York to San Francisco on skates
and afoot carrying a sealed message
to Mayor Mccarthy from the mayor OF
New York.
By performing that feat, which was
accomplished in LOG days, the boys
won $4,000 apiece from skate manu-
facturer in New York, which they In
tend to use in paying their way through
college.
They started out on their journey
without cent on May 8, covering the
distance to Chicago on skates. From
Chicago to San Francisco they Travelled
on foot, owing to the roughness OF the
country.
On the entire trip they slept in the
open, working at farmhouses when
they found it necessary TO earn little
money.
