Woman is Head Of
Gang Of Rustlers

Pierre, May 31.-The Sully county
authorities appear to think that in
the arrest of Mrs. Della Beck they
have secured the head of the horse
rustling organization which has been
working in that county for several
years. The woman is in Jail wait
ing a hearing IN the charge which
has been made against her. The ar
rest of Mrs. Beck was one of the re-
suits of the arrest of Sidney Dickey
who Was stopped at WATERFOWL with
stolen horses in his possession which
had been taken from the Riggle farm
in eastern Sully county. Dickey made
nc attempt to put up a fight and adj
mitted his guilt in the preliminary
hearing before a justice. and Judge
Hughes will probably hold a special.
term OF court in Sully county in a
few days to hear the plea of Dickey.
Il is claimed that the plan Of the rust
lers was to run their horses west,
across the Missouri river, and cross
ing east again at points north or
south, to work them through to a
farm owned by one of the gang in
Minnesota. This is the theory put
up, which is left to the development
Of the trials OF Mrs. Beck, and others
for whom warrants were sworn out
last evening, to develop Or disprove.

Within the last few years
many medicines have been put
out to be used instead of calomel,
but their effect is on the bowels
not on the liver. New drug store
says that the only real liver med

of calomel is Dodson's Liver

calomel and which gives prompt
relief in cases of constipation,
