WHITE LAKE MARSHALL
IS SUED FOR DAMAGE

White Lake, S. DAN action has
just been instituted in the circuit
court of Aurora county, South Da-
kota by James w. Ellis to recover
$4,000 damages from j. A. Archer,
the city marshal of White Lake. s..
D. Ellis, who is an old man more
than SO years of age, alleges that he
was struck yer the head and face
and knocked down by Archer with a
hemlock board which was broken into
s%plinters by the latter in beating Ell
lis over the head, limbs and body be-
fore an dafter he was down; and that
he has suffered a breakdown in
health and permanent injury from
the beating administered to him by
Archer on Nov. 90, 1913.
1t is alleged that the marshal in
this instance was engaged in an ar
gument with a third party, when Ell
lis spoke up, saying: He has not
done anything" w%hefeup6n, Archer

HUNTERS MAKE
GREWSOME FIND
DISCOVER CORPS OF SUICIDE in
CORNFIELD NEAR TRIP
YESTERDAY.

Attracted by an odd looking heap
in a cornfield two miles out of Trip,
two hunters found the body of an
unidentified mar late yesterday af-
ternoon. The corpse gave every indi-
cation of being a suicide.
The man, who was about 40 years
old, was evidently working as a farm
hand and had been husking corn, a.
he was dressed in overalls and had a
cornhusking mitten in his pocket. A
knife, tobacco and a handkerchief
were the only articles found in his
clothes, with no marks of Identified
ton.
Beside the body lay part of a bottle
OF formaldehyde, a powerful antisep-
tic and germicide, indicating that the
man had come to his death by drink
ing it. 1t is believed that the mar
had been working on some farm and
discovered the chemical, which is
used for treating seed corn.
The body was brought to Trip
yesterday and taken to the undertake.
ing parlors. The find created consid-
cradle excitement, but of the many
people who viewed the body, non was
able to identify 1t. 1t is thought the
man had been dead about a week.
The dead man had evidently been
in Mitchell recently, as the cap he
wore bore the marks of a Mitchell
clothier. In his pockets also were
found a box of matches from the
Jungles restaurant and a mirror from
the saloon of John w. Birge.

GAMBLING LOSS
is RECOVERED
LUMBER COMPANY OBTAINS
JUDGMENT AGAINST SOME
WHO WON FROM AN EN-
PLOYE.

Winner, S. D.-Information from
Pierre to the effect that Governor
Byrne, on recommendation of the
state board of %pardons. had granted
a pardon to G. II. Walter, a former
business man of Winner, who about
nine months ago was sentenced to a
term in the Sioux Falls ~penitentlary
for embezzlement, was received with
pleasure by his many friends here
and elsewhere through the Rosebud
country. He was charged with having
embezzled funds of the Montgomery
Lumber company to the amount of
about $4,000 while manager of the
company's yard in Winner. After his
arrest he confessed that he had lost
the money over the gambling table
and named the men who won the
money from him. The lumber comp
any then instituted an action for the
recovery of the money thus won by
the individuals named. The suits
were tried at a term of state circuit
court for Gregory county which ter
minated a few days ago, and the
trials, which were unique in the his
tory of the courts of South Dakota
resulted in the lumber company Sc.
touring judgments against several OF
the defendants.

STATE SCHOOLS
ON EVEN BASIS
BROOKINGS AND VERMIILION
HAVE ALMOST SAME STU
DENT BODY.

South Dakota's two leading state
institutions have within three of the
same number of regular students ell
rolled at h present time, according
to figures presented by A. Il. Hitch
cock, president of the state board of
regents. The university at Vermil-
lion has 2s9 students and the State
college, at Brookings, has. 392. BY a
further coincidence, there We're exact
ly the same number of students en-
rolled at Vermillion a year ago.
At the university, 22S of the stu
dents enrolled in the college of arts
and sciences. There are 81 seniora,
80 juniors, 20 sophomoers and IS
freshmen. In the college of law are
sc students. There are 35 music
students. 38 studying engineering and
four medicine. In all, there are 107
freshmen in the university.
A census taken of the 81 seniors
graduated at Nermillion last June
shows that 81 r practicing law, is
are teaching school, IL are students
in law, dental and medical schools,
two are collectors and two
are travelling statesmen. Others ar"
farming, on homesteads, in stores and
the ministry, engineering and teach
ing music.
The 1872 students enrolled at the
State college are exclusive of about
200 annually who take the short ag-
ricultural course of five month. There
are 1873 graduates, preparatory and
special students, 105 freshmen. &C
sophomores, 80 juniors and SO sen.

studying agriculture, 81 home econo-
mics, Sc music and 4 engineering.

INDICTMENTS
SIMPLIFIED
LAST LEGISLATURE DID AWAY
WITH ARCHAIC FORMS USED
FOR COMPLAINTS IN CRlN-
NAL CASES.

Pierre, S. D.-Several papers OF
the state have commented upon an
eastern prosecuting attorney pushing
and winning a ease upon a simple in
dictment in which the document was
reduced from the archaic form con
tanning al words down to 60 words,
and it is suggested that South Da-
kota attorneys could take the same
action without specific legislation as
did the eastern attorney. Chapter PAP
of the laws of 1913, specifically pro-
.yides that indictments shall be dra WI
in simple language, merely stating
the name of the party charged, the
offense charged, and the name of
the thing or person upon or against
whom the offense was committed.
The law further provides that it shall
not be necessary to set out in the in
dictment the facts relied Upon to
constitute the offense charged and
that it is necessary only to state what
offense is charged. Under such law in
force for nearly a year South Dakota
prosecutors could certainly simplify.

Commercial Club To
Secure Aid of Govern
ment Experts.
MEETING DEC. 10
Raisers of Swine In Dawson
and Adjoining Counties In
vited to. Attend.

To stop the ravages of hog cholera
on the farms of Dawson and the adj
Jacent county, which in the past two
years has cost thousands upon thous-
ands OF dollars, will be the object of
a monster farmers meeting called to
meet in Mitchell OH Fridal. Decer,-
Der 19.
The Mitchell Commercial club,
working through the secretary, It. J.
Morgans, this morning completed ar
rangements whereby the United Stat
es department of agriculture will
send two of it's experts on swine and
their diseases to the coming meet
ing, which will be absolutely free and
open to all.
Authority on Cholera.
One of the men promised by the
department is regarded as the great
est authority in the world on the use
of serums for the cure of hog chol-
era. The other expert has been active
ly engaged in the work for years and
has saved millions of dollars through
his work in the prevention of di-
sease.
From the State college at Brook
ings will come DIR. C. c. Lipp, who is
an authority on the subject of hogs
and their diseases and is in touch
with the subject in South Dakota.
The advice of the three men should
be ~incalcuable to all raisers of sewine
in the territory tributary to Mitchell,
where the losses from hog cholera
have been unusually severe the past
two years.
Loss is Enormous.
The loss to the country around
Mitchell from hog cholera" said Sec
rotary Morgans today, "is more than
several wheat crops and has cost us
many thousands of dollars. The banks
and all kinds of business, as we'll as
the farmers themselves, have suffer-
ed heavily,
with this in view, and the fact
than anything that affects the farm
ers has an identical result in Mitch
ell, the Commercial club has. decid4
ed to go about the question in the
most effective way. To this end, we
have engaged men best. able to tell
just what means we should use in
nghting choleras. They are not be-
ing brought here to advance any the
cries or sell any particular line OF
medicines or serums, but to tell us
just what to do to save our hogs.
They are amply qualified to do this,
as they are the greatest experts in
the country, and can give the practic-
al results of experiments costing the
government many thousands Of dol
lars.
81 particularly want to emphasize
the fact hat the Mitchell Commercial
club is bearing the total expense OF
the meeting and it will not cost a
farmer n cent to attend.

.sTEFANssON'S VESSEL IS
FROZEN IN ICE PACK

Ottuwa, Ont.-Somewhere within
the confines of the Arctic circle is
drifting Vilhjalmur Stefansson's
staunch little vessel, the Karluk, safe
ly frozen in an ice pack. But the
leader of the expedition is not with
his vessel and is unaware of it's
whereabouts, according to a dispatch
received from the explorer himself
today by George j. Desharatus, dep
'uty minister of naval affairs and act
ing minister of marine and fisheries.
Stefansson's message states that,
believing the Karluk safe in the ice,
in longitude west, LAT, Is miles
off shore, he took a party ashore with
him to hunt. The next day heavy
gales sprang up and then a fog. When
the weather cleared the Karluk was
not in sight and had undoubtedly
been carried away by the wind, which
drove the ice pack off shore.
