Crops Looking Good,
! But Need More Rain

The editor of the Saturday News
accompanied A. W. Ransom and his
friend, DR.. w. A. Weldon, of Los
Angeles, Cal, on an automobile trip
to Henry Tuesday.
The party found the grain along
the road looking fine and standing UP
in good shape and holding its color.
The shower which struck Water
town last Thursday did not reach out
to Lake Kampeska and west of the
lake to Henry. There was an abund-
ance if rain fell lest Thursday about
six miles south of Henry, and also
east and south of W~atertown. An
other fine shower came Tuesday even
ing of this week.
The party stopped on the return
trip at Stony Point Il Or. weldon
was very much pleased with Lake
Kampecka, remarking that it was n
of the most beautiful lakes he had
ever seen. The doctor also examined
the Indian skull which was found
among other human bones by the
high school class not long ago near
the lake on the hill at Stony Point.
The doctor said the skull was a per-
feet specimen of the Indian type and
that it was the skull of a male indian
between fifty and sixty years of age
and had probably laid in the ground
for at least a hundred years.

Tolnm" Gets
Four Years In Pen

Irish Tommy" Condor, who was
tried for the murder of Joe Narcelle
at Dupree last week, was found guilty
of manslaughter in the second degree
and despite the fact that the jury
recommended to the court that SEN
tence be suspended he was sentenced
to four years at hard labor in the
penitentiary at Sioux Falls by Judge
Carpenter. Four years is the maxi
mum sentence under the finding re-
turned by the jury.
The body of Joe Narcelle was found
after an Indian fair near Dupree on
September II, last year. Irish Tom
N.Y. and Narcelle had gotten into a
dispute over a horse trade at the fair
and the former was arrested and
charged with the murder. Condor is
said to have confessed the crime and
later to have repudiated the comics
sion.
He was brought to this city last
November and brought before the feu
eral court to answer to the charge
Judge Elliott ruled, however, that thu
matter was not for him to take up
on the grounds that the crime Wai
committed upon a part of the Chey
enne reservation which had been OF
ened to settlement previous to th,
time that the crime was committed
and remanded the cas to the circui
court. This trial was held at Dupre
