Murderer Gives Self Up to
Police.

Fort Worth, Texas.-The sensation
al elopment Of Mrs. Lena B.. Snead.
wife of a rich banker of Amarillo, with
A. G. Boyce, Jr., Millionaire %ranchman,
had a sensational development when
j. B. Snead, the husband shot and
killed A. G. Boyce, Sr, aged father
of the man who had eloped with his
wife. The shooting was done in the
lobby of the Metropolitan hotel,
crowded with people at the time.
Snead fired five shots at Boyce, four
taking effect. He used a 32-caliber
automatic and the bullets lodged in
the abdomen.
Snead fled by a side entrance and
ran to the Central police station, where
he surrendered. He refused to make
a statement to either newspaper re-
porters or police. On his death bed,
Boyce made a statement declaring that
he had seen Snead once before in the
lobby of the hotel and had avoided
him. The shooting anne as a big sur
prise to persons who had been follow
ing the case since the sensational

from Fort Worth on Nov. II. Mrs.
Snead disappeared from a sanitarium
here. Snead and his wife, little more
than a week ago, effected a reconcil-
alton and returned to Texas from Win
nipeg, where she and young Boyce had
been caught. Yes erday afternoon the
elder Boyce had just succeeded in get

dismissed by the county attorney. This
it was thought, would end the case.
The elopement of Mrs. Snead and
young Boyce attracted attention
throughout the country, the search
for the missing couple extending from
here to ST. Louis, thence to Chicago,
Atlantic City, New York, Minneapolis,
and, finally, to Winnipeg, Man, where
they were arrested.
AS soon as the couple we're arrested
Snead's attorneys had indictments
returned against Boyce charging alb
duction, rape and theft. A requisition
was applied for, but this Governor
Colquitt refused to grant as it was
based solely on the question of wheth-
er Mrs. Snead was insane at the time
she ran away with Boyce. Canadian
alienists found her a m and refused
to hold her after the arrival of her
husband.
Young Boyce was allowed to go free
and announced that he would 60 to
Alberta, Western Canada, and go into
the cattle business. When he left
Fort Worth he carried oychanpa to
the amount of $4,000 or $4,000 in cash.

NERLY FROZEN TO DEATH.
Farmer Gets Lost and Spends Night
in a haystack.

Sioux Falls.-Losing his way while
returning to his home on a farm after
a trip to town, and being compelled to
spend the night in a haystack with the
temperature many degrees below re
70 and the snow blowing in great
clouds, was the experience of Emil
kutschke, a prominent Mcpherson
county farmer. Because of the bad
condition of the roads his team trav-
eled slowly and when night set in he
was several miles from home. After
driving a few miles in the darkness he
became confused and believed he had
lost his way. He gave his horses their
heads and they made their way to the
haystacK, where kutschke decided to
camp for the night. He nearly froze
to death and in the morning was bare
ly able to move, SO badly was he
chilled. Much to his surprise he dis
covered that he was only two miles
from home. In the meantime fears for
his safety had aroused the neighbor-
hood and a country wide search was
about to be made for him.

Cat Season is On.

Brookings.-The cat season In the
Zoology Department of the state col
lege is now in full swing. During
the course of the winter it is expect
ed that dozens of felines will be sacri-
feed at the altar of knowledge, under
the direction of Prof. Shirley P. Mil
Ter, head of the department Of zoology.
To allay the fears of the kind hearted,
the professor states that all cats are
chloroformed and pronounced dead be-
fore the boys and girls begin dissect-
ing. Students in advanced zoology,
popularity known as the "Cat COURSE"
or "catology," is a rule leave the
state college upon graduation to study
medicine. All students in the urs
In pharmacy are registered for this
work in zoology. The course is an *
cellent preparation for the study of
medicine and also for the teaching of
this branch of science in high schools
and colleges.
Another course is being offered by
Prof. Miller, called general zoology, a
course which is given in very few
schools as it is here. 1t is made pre-
eminently practical. taking up the
principles of heredity, etc. 1t is a
course of special Importance for stu
dents of stock breeding, stock judging,
etc. In addition to the regular class
work the department is making a spe-
cial investigation of The development
of fish, and in a few weeks will begin
special investigation of the incuba-
ton OF hens eggs.
There are probably few departments
of zoology in the west better equipped
for this work than the state college.
The apparatus includes everything
that is needed in the way OF collec-
tons of bones and skeletons, a large
collection Of microscopic specimens,
embryological specimens, and a very
up-to-date equipment in microscopes,
including over 40 Leitz microscopes,
two investigation microscopes, etc.
Over 40 students are taking special
work in this department. The kind
Of work done is beyond question. The
credits received at the state college
are accepted for their full value at
Harvard and other large universities.
1t is the usual thing for graduates of
small colleges when they enter upon
advanced work in zoology at Harvard
to repeat n or more elementary
courses in zoology, no matter what
they have taken in college. Last year
Orlando White went to Harvard with
two credits in zoology from the state
college and these were both accepted
and Mr.. White was allowed to enter
Immediately upon advanced study.
This exceptional case demonstrates
the efficiency IF the work done at the
state college.

Attorney General Gives
Legal Opinion.

Pierre.-A number of the counties
of the state have, by petition, filed last
summer, suspended action Of the state
good roads law, pending a vote on it's
adoption or rejection at the general
election next fall. The question OF
the proper manner Of submission of
this question to the voters, has been
brought to the attorney general tor an
opinion as to manner of procedure.
That official holds that the law does
not require publication OF the law to
be submitted, in full, either by publ
cation in newspapers, o by pamphlet
as is required at present for consti-
tutional amendments and referred
laws. The referendum on this propo-
sition is only by counties, as is the
herd law" and all which is required
in the way of publication is the fact
that the road law" is to be submitted
to the voters, which Is considered to
be sufficient notice for them to inform
themselves as to what they are called
upon to vote on.

payment on premiums on the official
bonds of such officers. A law of the
last session provided for the payment
of such premiums by the county. But
the different county treasurers over
the state had given their bonds prior
to the going into effect of the law the
first of last July, and these bonds are
held to be contracts entered into be-
fore the law allowing the counties to
pay the board premiums became effect
i've, and that as the law cannot be
made retroactive, the contracts made
prior to the new law remain in force
and effect, and the counties cannot be
called upon to pay even second year"
premiums on said bonds, as they are
continuous contracts entered into prior
to the law. 1t is held though, that
with the consent of the county COM
m~issioners, old bonds may be Cancelled
and new one secured for the present
paying the premiums, but that this ac-
ton can only be taken by and with the
consent of the county boards. And
unless they consent to such change,
if the bond contracts were for two
years from the first Of last year, the
treasurers must pay their own pre-
miums.
The seed grain law is also held to
be void insofar as it makes the pay
ment for seed grain a tax against the
land. and prior lien against any and
all OTHER claims. Generally the law is
held to be good, only bad in the Sec
tons attempting the above provisions.
