PROMINENT YOUTHS
BECOME BURGLARS
SONS OF y LEGISLATOR AND AN
EDUCATOR CONFESS RDE-
EiNG TWO HOUSES IN
ABERDEEN.

Aberdeen, s. D.-The perpetrators
OF the burglary OF a prominent phvsi-
clan OF Aberdeen, on saturday night.
the home of DR.. II. l.. Murdy have
been located and arrested. They
are two boys. aged respectively A
and IL Years of age, IL of which is
the son OF a member OF the South
Dakota legislature. and the 9TH
er the son of a prominent educator.
After the police investigated the sit
uation at the Murdy residence, and
no difficulty in discovering the iden-
tity of the %culprits, and their arrest
followed. The boys confessed
to the burglary, and later owned TO
having robbed the residence of G. w.
Kendall a few weeks ago. At the
Murdy home much malicious mis-
chief IA done. in addition to the
thefts. Jars of jam We're broken in
TO, and after the boys had eaten all
they could, the remainder was
seneared upon the walls; a three
gallon can of gasoline was emptied
a quantity of chicken feed, and
other d~epredations done.
Entrance to the house was ecu
ed by breaking a window, through
which one of the boys crawled and
opened the door for his companion.
DIR. Murdy is as yet undecided as
to the action he will take in the mat
ter. He expresses a desire to do
whatever is best for the boys future,
and it is probable the matter will be
left largely to the decision of the
parents of the two boys as to whether
they will be sent to the state INDUS
school or placed on probation
at home.

IEMMON HAS TWO
INCENDIARY FIRES

lennon, ~ D.AFires of incen-
diary origin broke out simultaneous
3lysiin the furniture stores of T. Nick
isch and S. N. Baden Saturday ,nforn-
ing. Shortly after midnight fire was
discovered breaking from the real
OF the Baden store, and by the time
the fire department arrived the Nick
isch store. only a few lots away, was
found to be fercely burning on the
inside. With heavy odds agains,
them the tiremen, aided by the
promptly arriving citizens, attacked
the flames and the Braden store was
reasonably out of danger, al
though the entire stock is heavily
damaged. In the Nickisch store
building greater difficulties We're
met, the fire having broken through
into the main room and to the sec
story. 1t required half an hours
work of the best sort that ever vol
aunteer firemen undertook before they
got the mastery of the flames.
In the Nickisch store a stock
I worth some $4,000 was practically
DESTROYED with probably $1,000
sSdamage to the building. Insurance
is given at $4,000 on stock and ST.
900 on building. The stock of the
s@Braden store is probably a two-thirds
loss, invoicing some $4,000. The
building is owned, by Mrs. Ryan, of
OrristOwn, and is insured for ST.
800.
Without doubt the fire is of in
9@cendiary origin At the southwest
g corner of the Nickisch building was
found q place where by means of a
ssn5life the siding had been cut off and
SSsEotle had been poured from here into
THE rear Of the building used for stor-
AReapnrposes.

book. now shining from
the Word Of God-disclosing to US the
fact that much that came down to ns
from the Dark Ages is contrary to TIE
Bible as well as to reason. Many Of
the professed teachers of the church
are heartily opposed to Bible study,
although their opposition is advanced

A Famine For the Word Of God
S%criptural truth is a scarce coming
dity at the present time-the world Is
full Of error and sin and unrighteous-
ness. The Lords disciples must SO
love truth and righteousness as to hun
ger and thirst for it. To such spiritual
food will be granted. Truth will be
dispensed to them as meat in due
season."
The Scriptures from first to last give
us to understand that Gods Word is
to shine more and more brightly down
to the very end Of this Gospel Age.
st. Peter declares 1t to be '"the more
sure Word of prophecy, to which we

Day dawn and the Day Star arise in

The Bishop Of London opposed the
Tyndale translation because the prac-
tees Of the time were not in harmony
with the Scriptures. Similarly, today,
there are doctrines. traditions. creeds
from the Dark Ages still ~reverenced.
and which a better understanding Of
the Bible would correct and put to
shame. Hence the opposition to the
better understanding Of Gods Word.
Nevertheless. the Word Of God shall
stand forever. and the spirit Of the
truth shall make free all the children
Of the truth.

Mrs. Jay c. Newell is to open
school in stenography in OrOville next

to form a class, and as it is as easy
to teach a number as few she de-
cided to accept all who may apply for
such instruction. She has had much
experience performing short hand
work, and is well qualified to teach.
Mrs. Frank Thompson lost a num-
Der of diamonds and rare coins in the
fire that destroyed the Thompson
home Friday last. In search of the
debris Monday Mr.. Thompson found
four of the diamonds, and the stones
were uninjured. He also found the
coins, but they were in the shape of a
slug, as the intense heat melted them.
This is the month every year that

A large patch of the hill side imme-
diately west of town was burned over
Saturday afternoon, and it's further
spread was prevented only by hot and

the blaze is unknown. The experience
is a warning to people to exercise
great caution, as the grass is as dry as

camp fire, any wayward spark, may
start disastrous grass fire.
