DIOCESE OF LEAD.

Functions at the Auditorium: "The
Octoroon" as played by the Cathedral
Dramatic Club On Wednesday the
22nd inst, was one of the best anna
teur plays ever staged in the Black
Hills. Long before the curtain rose
every seat in the Institute was occu-
pied and standing room was at a
premium. This stirring little before
the-war drama was well interpreted
and faithfully rendered. Every mem
Der of the cast was good, but Miss
Aileen Letourneau in the title role,
excelled. Albert Gushurst, as the
Yankee overseer of the plantation was
the best character in the play, while
John Murphy the villain and Vincent
| Murphy as old Pete, were especially
good. In fact there was not a weak
number in the cast and the acting
throughout was excellent. The audi
| ence was one of the largest ever
assembled in the Institute, many
people being present from the outside
| camps. Manager Mcintyre deserves
great credit for his painstaking prepa
ration of this difficult drama and the
faithful rendering of the different
parts. So successful was the pre-
sentation that the management has
been requested to put the play on al
the Deadwood theatre on the 9Th Of
December and at the Institute or
Thanksgiving the 30th inst, SO as to
enable those down the gulch to wit
ness it's production.
Personal: Amongst the visitors
this week at the Bishops residence
were Fathers Noesen of Deadwood;
Georgen of Philip; Mooney of Custer
and COLUMBIAN of Sturgis

FOUR BALLOTS WERE TAKEN

New York, Dec. ia verdict Of
mot guilty" was returned late yes
terday, freeing Lillian Graham and
Ethel Conrad Of criminal charges
on which they had been held since
last June for shooting the million
aire sportsman and hotel proprietor,
w. E. D. Stokes.
The jury reached Its verdict in
slightly less than an hours delibera-
tion-fifty- eight minutes, to be ex-
act.
The Shooting. show girls were
tried on an Indictment OF three
counts, the first charging an attempt
to murder Stokes. OF consideration
of this count, however, the jurors
were relieved by Justice Marcus, at
the district attorney. The court re-
stricted the jury to the second and
third counts, which charged, respec-
lively, assault in the first degree
with intent to kill and assault in
the second degree with intent to do
bodily injury.
While the jury was celebrating
the two defendants were held pris-
oners in an adjoining room. Wait
ing was obviously an ordeal for
both. When summoned to hear the
verdict Miss Graham appeared un-
strung and was assisted into the
court room trembling as with a
chill. The more spirited Miss Con-
rad came unassisted, but she SEEM
ed highly nervous.
When the girls faced the foreman
he announced the words mot gull
ty." Miss Conrad cried, Thank
Cod" and went into violent hys-
terics. She sank to the counsel
table, then jumped up again, Shrek
ing and tearing her hair and throw
ing her arms about wildly. It was
surprise to the spectators, for Miss
Conrad had kept much the better
nerve of the two defendants
throughout the trial.
On the other hand. Miss Graham,
who continually wept during the
trial, and sobbed the more when she
saw her companion so affected, acted
rs the comforter to her younger
friend.
It was at first thought that Miss
Conrad had misunderstood the YER
iict and her companion tried to as
sure her that they were free.
"Oh. 1 know" she said. Tell
mother we are free. Tell her we are
coming home"
The girls hysteria continued full
" ten minutes before before her
friends succeeded in quieting her.
She recovered as suddenly as she
was attacked, and with Miss Graham
IN her arm, issued from the court
room to be greeted with cheers by q
large crowd gathered outside. Many
persons stepped forward to shake
heir hands.
The jury arrived at its verdict at
ter taking four ballots. On three Of
