Object to Suicide Theory.

Rapid City.-County Officials have
been investigating the death of Homer
Shank OF Keystone, whose body was
found beside the road. According to
first reports the bullet, which caused
his death, was fired from behind, but
later evidence would seem to prove
that the bullet entered the left breast
and passed through the body, coming
out at the back. No motive for the
crime can be imagined, and so far no
cleW has been found which might lead
to a solution Of the mystery. Owing 20
the finding of a 80 caliber revolver
near the body the theory of suicide
has been advanced, but the friends Of
young Shank refuse to credit it, as it
is known he was not the owner of such
a weaken, and besides they point to
the fact that he was to have been mar
ried on the day his body was found
and left his sweetheart's home at 10
O'Clock on the night of the tragedy,
with bright dreams of the future.

opportunity to work without rain on
the hay before they can get it punched
The crop is ready for the first cutting,

weather prevented earlier cutting. The
crop this year is an immense one and
has matured several days earlier than
1t usually does, which will give time
for several more cuttings in the fields
