SUICIDES GRAVE

Hot Springs, S D.-The body of
Perry Sickles, a heavy land owner of
this county. was found in a room ov-
er the Eureka saloon. In his pocket
was a vial of strychnine and his
death evidently was the result OF
poison. Sickles was a rancher and
had lived near Oral for many years
and his property. together with much
property belonging to his wife, ag-
gregated S yeral sections of land. His
friends are unable to account for his
act, though he had been drinking
some recently and is reported to have
sad slight domestic trouble lately.
He carried $4,000 insurance in the
Modern Woodmen and a $1,000 pol
icy with an old line company.
The room in which Sickles died is
said to possess a hooded, and he was
the third to take his life there.
