State Fire Marshal Finds Senti'
mental Motives Behind Act
Of Tncendiarism.

Sioux Falls, $. y, Nov, ls.-Charies
Bagunola, who arrived in Sioux Falls
a day or two ago from Chicago and
New York, has been arrested on the
charge of arson in connection with the
destruction of the buildings on a farm
In Edmunds county, South Dakota.
where Bagunola was employed last
summer.
The arrest is the result Of shrewd
work on the part of Frank Craft, state
fire marshal of South Dakota The ae-
cused is charged with having set the
Are for an unusual purpose-the uin
ing of the man of whose wife he was
enamored SO the family would be
broken up and he could have the wom-
an himself. He also is charged with
alternating the affections of the won-
an.
Mrs. H. NJ. Hanson is the name Of
the woman in the case. Herself and
husband lived on a rented farm in Ed
munds county and were doing well
financially when Bagunola appeared on
the scene wanting work. He was en-
ployed by Hanson and treated with
that hospitality which practically MAIDS
him Il of the family.
After WiFe CT Another.
Very soon after accepting work on
the Hanson place Bagunola formed an
attachment for his employers wife and
pursued his lovemaking with great
ardor. On the night of August % last,
Mr.. and Mrs. Hanson and Bagunola at
tended a dance two miles from the
Hanson farm. Hanson and the wife
departed for the dance before Baeuno-
la, leaving him to follow them later. 1t
is charged against Bagunola that after
the Hansons left he deliberately set
fire to the farm buildings.
AT any rate, after the country dance
was over and they reached the rented
farm the house and barn and shed were
found to be heaps of glowing embers
and smoking ashes. The state fire
marshal was notified of the suspicious
circumstances surrounding the fire and
went to the scene and made a careful
investigation, satisfying himself that
the fire was of incendjary origin. The
state fire marshal asserts that 1t was in
furtherance of the plan to have the
woman all his own that Hagunola set
fire to the farm buildings, believing
that II the buildings on the rented
farm wore destroyed the Hanson fam
lily would be broken up and he would
find fewer difficulties in the path he
felt he could induce her to tread with

Winner won the county seat fight by
q strong majority and some of the
hot heads from that city decided to
remove the county headquarters i'm
nnediately. The court house building
at Lamro is only leased by the county,
so the removal of the records at
fected a practical transfer of the coun-
ty seat.
County Treasurer Taylor states that
among h records removed. but later
restored, were $4,000 worth of paid
vouchers, 100000 worth of school bonds
and $500 in currency. All this stuff was
in private hands two days, but it is
not expected that any particular COM
plications will result. The county seat
cannot be formally transferred until
