STURGIS BANK
CASES ENDED
PLEAS OF GUILTY BY DIRECTORS
STEWART AND MCPHERSON
PRACTICALLY CLEAR UP
THE PROSECUTIONS.

Deadwood, S. D.-With the SEN
fencing of Henry e. Perkins to the
penitentiary and the adjournment of
court at Sturgis until September,
the criminal cases resulting from
the failure year and half ago of
the Meade County bank at Sturgis,
have virtually ended. There re-
mains but two more cases for trial,
both of them on minor charges.
with the possibility that one will
plead guilty to the technical viola
tion of the law and the state de-
cline to prosecute the other.
The Perkins case was the main
effort of the prosecution which sue
ceeded in securing conviction.
Frank Stewart of Buffalo Gap, one
of the directors, and d. A. McPher-
son of Deadwood, former president
each pleaded guilty to indictments
charging them with permitting loans
in excess of the legal limit, tech
nical violation, while other indict-
ments against Mr. Mcpherson were
dismissed. H. o. Anderson OF
Sturgis, director, and Harold
Cooper of Sioux Falls, clerk, are
both still under indictments similar
to those against Mcpherson and
Stewart but there is a strong pos
sibility that neither will be tried and
that the prosecution will rest salts
fed with that it has already accon,
plished Perkins is taking steps tt
appeal to the supreme court.

SEES DAYLIGHT TWICE
IN HIS ELEVEN YEARS

Deadwood, S. D.-The last of the
horses that have been used in the
hauling of ore cars in the Home
stake mine, since its development be-
gan, was taken out of the mine a
few days ago. All the transportation
within the Homestake is now accom-
plished by compressed air motors.
The largest number of horses and
mules ever on duty at one time in
the mine was 85. The first horse went
down into the mire about 80 years
ago. The last horse out was "Teddy. -
He is about Is years old, black as
jet and handsome as picture. He
went into the mine a little more than
IL years ago and has been out but
twice since, making his descent, once
at the time of the labor trouble in
Lead and again at the time of the fire
in the Homestake mine.

TWO S. D. MEN
ODDLY MISSING
REWARD OF $500 OFFERED FOR
TWO VlBORG MEN WHO DIS
APPEARED ON WAY TO

Viborg, S. D.-No trace has been
found of Henry and Clarence Morri-
son, the two young men who started
from here late last Thursday night
orf Sioux City in an automobile $500
reward has, been offered by friends
of the missing men for their return,
dead or alive.
score of automobiles patro]led
the road between heer and Sioux City
all day Sunday, Monday and yester-
day without finding clue. The Mis-
souri, river has been dragged at Elk
Point in vain. A point where the
highway runs close to the river was
suggested as the possible scene of
an accident which hurled the car in
to the stream. II this happened, the
car and it's two passengers were
swept down stream and away frof
Elk Point, say the men who dragged
the river
Foul Play Feared.
Among the friends of the missing
men, the theory of murder and the
theft of the car by the thugs is be-
ing accepted.
The two men, the elder of whom,
Henry, is town marshall of Viborg,
left at II o'clock Thursday night to
deliver an automobile to it's owners
in Sioux City, expected to reach their
destination at o'clock the follow
ing morning. When trey failed to
arrive, the alarm was spread and
the search has continued since.
Both young men have lived in vi
borg for a number of years and are
highly respected by their neighbors
and friends.
Drag River at Elk Point.
| Elk Point, S. D.-Dragging of the
Missouri river near this place has
been going on all day today in an
effort to discover whether the two
Viborg men, Henry and Clarence
Morrison, drove their car into the
Big Muddy on the night of July Bird.
The disappearance of the two young
men is battling mystery which has
excited this entire portion of South
Dakota.
A Treacherous Road.
The theory has been advanced that
the young men by mistake drove in
to a road that runs sheer into the
Missouri river. AT a point one mile
west of this place the road between
| Viborg and Elk Point makes turn
and another road branches off a
mile and half direct to the river
bank. 1t is feared that the Morrison
boys followed this branch road in the
darkness and speeded their car into
the turbulent waters of the Missouri
To Dynamite Today.
A large area of the river at the
point where the road ends abruptly
on the steep bank, has been dragged
carefully but without result. Dyna
hitting will be resorted to tomorrow
in the hope of ascertaining If the
men met the fate that seems mos
probable.
\ This neighborhood is being search
ed as with fine tooth comb for an.
person who might have seen sus
picious characters in the vicinity. vi
borg friends of the young men fea
that they were murdered by high
waymen and their car stolen.

Rochester Surgeons Now
Doubt if His Memory
Will Ever Return,

Rochester, Minn.-The identity OF
u. G. r." must remain unsolved
and the mental cloud which has wrap
ped the mind of the mysterious pat
lent who was brought to the state
hospital two months ago will never
be cleared. The case of the man to
Whom the past is dead was declared
to be without cure today, following
remarkable operation in which every
thing known to the Mayo brothers,
the wizards of surgery, was done to
restore power to the brain Of the pa
tient
The skull of the mysterious ~. G..
r." was opened and the brain laid
bare. But the blow the man had suf-
fered when his mind became a blank
had rendered such injury to the deli
cate cells that the surgeons declared
the case almost hopeless. They dag.
nosed the case as hemorrhage of the
brain following severe blow on the
back of the head. An unusually large
cyst containing fluid was removed,
and in this operation the surgeons
base a faint hope that the patients
recovery may be of such a nature that
a second operation may lift the cloud
from the brain.
Surgeons Watch Case.
The case of ~. C. r." has attract
ed the attention of medical men all
over the country. Since the operation
Sunday afternoon scores Of kilograms
from surgeons have been received
asking the results of the operation. II
the man ultimately RECEIVERS, experts
declare that it will be the most sue
cessful operation ever performed un-
der the direction of the Drs. Mayo.
The mysterious patient was found
wandering in the railroad yards two
months ago. His mind was a blank.
although he could converse with some
intelligence Since coming to the state
hospital he apparently has picked up
the thread of life where 1T was sever
ed, but the past is dead to him. He
could furnish no clew to his identity
or residence Initials on his linen
when repeated to him suggested no
name, and he became known as ).
C. r."
The only event of the past which
he was able to relate with any con-
currence was disconnected story OF
an attack on him by two men. 1t was
this attack, it is believed, that result
ed in the clouding of his mind.
Patient Hopes for Success.
The man realized when he went on
to the operating table what was to be
done and that the knife of the sur
geon held the only hope of linking
the past to the present and bridging
the gap between him and the loved
ones of his family. He was jovial and
expressed hope that he would come
from under the ether with the life
which had been wiped. out restored
to him.

NEW YORK INTERESTED
IN RICHARDS PRIMARY

Huron, S. DIN spite of the
criticism of the Richards primary
law by South Dakota politicians,
other states seem to continue to look
upon the measure with favor, as is
indicated by requests received at the
office of the secretary of state at
Pierre from the secretary of state of
New York for copies of the law. In
fact both sides of the primary fight in
New York state have applied to the
South Dakota secretary for such
copies. The New York legislature met
at Albany June 16, in extraordinary
session to enact a new primary law.
The progressive democratic organiza-
ton, backed by Governor Sulzer,
writes the secretary of state that it
intends to use parts of the Richards
law.

DETAILED ASSESSMENT
OF EXPRESS COMPANIES

Pierre. S. D.-The st; te tax com
mission made it's first move Monday
evening toward assessment work, be-
ginning with the express and sleep
ing car companies, basing the valua-
tion on the statements of the comp
anies as filed with the different state
departments. They increased the VAL
uation of express companies to over
four times the valuation placed upon
that class of property for last year by
the old state board, and gave the
Pullman sleeping car interests a
raise of nearly four times the valu-
alton placed aaginst that property
for last year. The assessment of 9th er
corporate property along the same
lines will mean a big increase in as
sessment figures on such property.
The changes made by comparison

AUTO OWNERS MAY UNITE
TO PROTECT TMESELVEs

Miller, S. D.-There is talk of an
organization of automobile owners
in the state to protect in future aga
inst the unfair legislation that seems
to be aimed at automobiles at eacn
session of the legislature. The extra
tax of Sc year for each machine in
addition to the regularly assessed
valuation and tax is causing consider
able complaint from farmers who
are now buying the machines more
than town people. 1t is thought that
with an organized body of owners of
machines that more influence can be
brought to bear in making laws. The
farmers claim that the auto is not a
luxury, but necessity, and should
not be the victim of double taxation.
