DISCHARGED FoRGER SIGNS
NAME OF WARDEN TO DRAFT

Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 5.-Thus far
the local authorities have been unable
to secure any trace of John Larkin,
who is wanted for forging the name of
y. s. Swenson, warden Of the Sioux
Falls p~enitentiary, to a draft for 1868,
which was made payable to the peni-
Tertiary.
Larkin was only recently released
from the penitentiary here after serv-
ing two terms for forgery. The draft
to which he is charged with having
forged the endorsement of Warden
Swenson was made out by the Farmers
bank. of Florence, S D., and was Drawn
on the First National bank, Of Mime
apolis, in favor of the Irvine plant,
which is operated in connection with
the p~enitentiary. The draft was pre-
sented in Minneapolis for payment by
Larkfn in person. When Larkin pre-
sented the draft at Minneapolis the bank
officials informed him they would tele-
phone to the pen%itentiary here to as
certain whether or not to turn over the
cash to him on the draft. He protested,
but walked out of the bank and has not
been seen or heard of since.
The local authorities are somewhat
puzzled as to where the forgery was
committed. 1t is presumed that it was
committed in South Dakota, but this
might be difficult to prove. If Larkin
did not forge the signature OF Warden
Swenson in Minnesota he has commit
ted nc crime in that state.

COURT HOUSE OF CHARLES MIX
COUNTY CHAINED TO GROUND

Wheeler. S. D., Nov. 5.-This little
village on the banks of the Missouri
river, Is miles from a railroad, has a
very interesting custom. Since an early
day it has been the county seat Of
Charles Mix county, but with the COM
ing of. the railroad other towns sprung
up and became DESTROYS of the county
capital. so that at almost every elec-
ton some n of these railroad towns
has tried to take away the county
e 1t has only been the rivalry of
the towns that has kept the court house
at Wheeler.
So often has the question Of removal
come up that 1t has become a custom
here just before the election for the
boys of the village to get out with
log chains and chain the court house
down to the ground. This rite was
duly performed the other day with the
usual and appropriate ceremonies.
Whether the chains will be broken on
November 5 remains to be seen. Wag-
ner is h rival for the honor this
time.
