UNUSUAL MURDER trial
BEGINS At LAk0TA

LAKOTA, N. D., July 24-Today
there will be opened in this city prob
ably the most sensational murder case
that has been tried i'll North Dakota
; for several years, being that of Clyde
Sperry, the l8-year-old Aneta boy,
charged with the murder of another
Aneta boy, Kenneth Mckenzie. His
, trial will take place before Judge Burr
of Bottineau, Judge Templeton of this
district having been disqualified through
the filing of an affidavit of prejudice.
1t is over two years since the crime
of which young Sperry is now accused
was committed. One night young Me-
Kenzie, carrying lantern, was at
! tackled by two persons, the oil from
! the lantern was poured over his cloth
ing and he was set on fire. A blazing
human torch, the boy ran from the
place where he had been attacked, but
soon fell exhausted. Just before he
died, he told the story of the attack
on him.
Developments following the crime
came slowly. The inquest failed to
develop anything and nothing further
transpired until last February, when
Roy Sommerfeld was arrested at his
home in Minor, accused of the fiend-
ish crime, and few days later in
formation leaked out to the effect that
Clyde Sperry had made complete
confession, duplicating Sommergeld by
declaring that he and Sommer6eld had
been responsible for the affair. They
had, so the alleged confession declared
started the affair in joke.
But at the time of Sommer6eld's
hearing, Sperry failed to testify as
anticipated and the accused boy was
dismissed. Then came Sperry's ar
rest on the same charge, with a pre-
liminary examination being held before
Judge c. F. Templeton of the district
court, acting as committing magis-
trate. At Sperry's preliminary hearing
States Attorney Skulason went on the
stand and related the 4 etails of the
confession which he then declared had
been made to him by operry.
Since the preliminary Sperry, who
is the son of prominent parents, has
been free under a $40, 900 bond. The
affair has stirred up great strife in
this county.

MILLlGAN BATS THE BATS.

The Beach Chronicle has the follow
ing bat story which is we'll worth
reading:
"Swat" Milligan of the Beach Giants
had an exciting time and close call
in an encounter with flock of bats
in the Inter-Ocean hotel at Mandan
one night last week.
Swat had just retired for the night
and was, perhaps, dreaming of looking
some pitcher in the face when he was
awakened by strange sounds in the
room. He arose from his peaceful
slumbers and turned on the lights
only to find himself attacked on all
sides by bats. Selling a baseball bat
(the kind Swat is more familiar with)
that stood near by, he began swing
ing wildly at the intruders. but the
speed and curves of the little animals
simply baffled him. and marry one
did he bring to dust. Finally, realizing
the bats were scoring almost at will.
"Swat" discarded the ball bat and seiz-
ed a baseman's NIT. Armed in this
manner, he finally succeeded in pull
ing down a few and soon put the bats
to flight, although they had landed on
the plucky little ball player for a
two-bagger to the right eye, followed
by a three-bagger to the left ear. Mil
ligan bore several bad scratches and
his eye was in bad condition for sew.
eral days, but we are glad to state
that his wounds were not of a. serious
nature, and at this writing he has
practically survived the shock.

They have it and it flies. Ever since
Kit Carson's Buffalo Ranch Wild West
Shows billed that they would exhibit
Curtis-Farnum Biplane and. that it
would actually make a flight, pro-
PEELED by competent aviator, nothing
but doubt existed in the minds the
public. which had not entirely for
gotten that last year a show adver-
tised a like attraction and only ex-
hibited small aeroplane model in
their side show. However Harris
burg was filled with people last Sat-
urday. in fact the largest crowd that
ever congregated in the county was
present to witness the street parade,
which by the way. was first-class and
was followed to the show grounds by
an expectant throng that numbered
fully 10000 people, as it had been
rumored that the show really had
large Aeroplane and it was erected
ready for flight. After reaching the
grounds at 1870 promptly as adver-
tised, the Aeroplane rose from the
ground like majestic bird and
scared away in the heavens, flying
over the city, sailing around in circles,
diving down low one moment and the
next dashing high in the air with per-
feet ease, reminding one of the flight
of an enormous eagle.
After remaining in the air ten min
utes the aviator directed his Biplane
toward the show grounds and landed
safely at the place of starting amid
the cheers of the multitude. The
doors to the big show were immed-
lately opened and the mighty canvas
was crowded by an enthusiastic crowd
that filled every available seat and
enjoyed the Wild West performance
from start to finish.
We can safely say that a more
pleased audience never left a place
of amusement in our city.-Harris-
burg Chronicle.

FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.
New Salem Young Man Cremated Not
Drunken.

| NC" odlSUU tOuUS Wait NISHoISU wv
| Drinker.
| The New Salem Journal gives fur
Their particulars of the burning tc
death of young Richard John neal
| there:
Tie Emil John home, located on A
! farm about five miles northeast OF
New Salem, was burned to the ground
last evening between eight and nine
o'clock, and the 19year-old son, Rich
ard John, was burned to death in
the fire.
The son, Richard, was home alone
at the time of the fire and there seems
to BIT no way of telling just how the
fire started or how the boy came to
meet death in this horrible manner,
and under such unaccountable cir
cumstances. The team was put in
the barn, not Embarrassed. 1t is said
that he intended to return to town
that night and attend a dance. The
fire was first noticed by Emil Wade
and William John, near neighbors,
and they rushed to the farm, arriving
before it started to flame but the
house was so full of smoke that they
were unable to get into it, and in a
few minutes it was a mass of flames.
Charles F. Kellogg was out auto driv-
ing in that direction and noticing the
fire, rushed out there as fast as pos
sible, but it was a mass of flames
when he reached there. AS soon as
the frame of the house was burned
down an effort was made to remove
the body as it lay in a room near
the coal bin, where there was a terri
bly, hot fire, and Charles F. Kellogg
and others were able to make up a
contrivance and remove it from the
hot Goals. He lay face down in about
the middle of the room, half way
between the door and the bed, as if
he had been asleep on the bed and
made an effort to get out and became
suffocated from the dense heavy
smoke that had formed in the house
while he was asleep. The body was
terribly burned, the limbs and back
CT the head being entirely gone
1t will never be known why the boy
went home before the show and lost
his life as he did, but it is the general
opinion that he was not feeling we'll,
went home and lay down on the bed,
dropped off to sleep with a lighted
cigar in his mouth and set fire to the
bedclothes, which smouldered along
for a long time. Supplying the sleep
er, and when he woks was so suffo-
Gated that he was unable to get out
There are some who think of foul
play and other things, but these opin-
ions are not probable. The young
man was man of strictly temperate
habits and intoxicants could not be
in any way responsible for his death.
The coroner and deputy sheriff were
notified this morning and arrived on
train No. this noon, and are at the
farm now.
The deceased leaves a father and
mother, two brothers and one sister,
