VERMlLlON NIGHTWATCH
SEES MYSTERIOUS AiRSHlP

Yankton Herald; Some time ago a
newspaper from one of the small towns
upstate printed an article in which one
of their inhabitants claims he saw an
airship, containing what he thought to
be German spies. Also that this airship
had stopped in OF near this certain
town and received a supply of gasoline,
and then rose into the air II went
away. We have this same airship, or
perhaps a new one, making its appear
ance in this state.
The night Waterman of Vermilion,
S. D., claimed that a few nights ago his
attention was called to a bright light
in the sky, and as he watched the light
it appeared to come nearer and nearer.
AS he stood there watching he heard
the loud whirr of an engine, and in
a moment more a large airship came
into view, circled around the Baptist
church a couple of times, and then dis
appeared. A night or so later the same
aircraft made It's appearance, at the
same place, and the Waterman as well
as two ladies saw it.

COMMISSIONER STABLEIN
ON INSURANCE EARNINGS

Pierre, S. d, Dec. 28.-lnsurance
Commissions Stablein has made the
following statement about insurance
In South Dakota during the past year:
Il call attention to the statements III
the press of the state in regard to the
matter of foreign life insurance profits
in South Dakota, particularly wherein
the statements is made that the pre-
miulns paid to such companies for the
last year in round numbers 50, 100, 900.
and losses paid in the state for the
same period but $500, 900, thus showing
the balance as profit to the companies.
The figures are correct as far as they
go, but do not go far enough. The
situation in round figures IS $2,100.O00
in premium receipts; losses paid, $780,
900; expense for operation, $500, 900;
cash dividends to policy holders, paid
in the state, $235, 600; reserve, ap-
proximately, $4,000; leaving a balance
of $7O0,0 900, out of which the companies
are called upon to meet dividends to
stockholders, management expenses,
extending insurance and paid up ad-
ditions to existing policies. The latter
items are not shown in reports made
to the state department, and in detail
are not available. While it has nothing
to do with profit or loss, these COM
panies operating within South Dakota
have investments in first mortgages up
on real estate in the state of South Da-
kota to the amount of $4,000 00."

CONVICT SO YEARS OF AGE
TO APPLY FOR PARDON

Sioux Falls. S. D., Dec. 30.-Notice of
James Darlington. serving a life term
in the Sioux Falls p~enitentiary. that
he Will apply for a pardon next month
recalls one of the most celebrated muir
der cases in the history of South Da-
kota,
Darlington was convicted of the muir
der of Alfred Erickson. a young man,
in the early evening of December Z,
1897. An unusual feature of the crime
was that it was committed in a little
shack occupied by Darlington neal the
heart of h Sioux Falls business dis
stabbed to death people We're con-
stantly passing only a few yards way
Thirty-three knife wounds We're found
on Erickson's body.
Darlington, a Veteran of the civil
war. now is SO years Of age. Soon aft
er the death of Erickson he was pa
rading around the saloons boasting of
a fight he had just had Blood was
spattered on his clothing. AS he was
q small man. his auditors were skep-
tical of his story. While he was in the
saloon someone entered his shack and
found Erickson's body.
In February. 1898, Darlington was
tried for the murder of Erickson and
was convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. Before the time fixed for the
execution of Darlington on the gal
lows his attorney secured a writ of err
ror. A new trial ultimately was grant
ed, and he finally escaped with a life
sentence. His second trial took place
in the winter of tS9S-1S99. Soon after
his second conviction he was lodged in

HILL MoDlFlEs OFFER TO
YANkTON COLLEGE FUND

Yankton. S. D.. Dec. 3o.--An impor-
tant announcement is given out by
Yankton college regarding it's endow-
ment campaign now drawing to a close.
Instead of $500, 900 as the sum to be
raised by January l, in order to win
$4,000 offered by James J.. Hill,
the college is ~endeavoring to reach he
sum of $160,o00 on that date, accord
ing to a special offer which Mr.. Hill
has made to give $40, 600 il the colIege
raises 100000 the first day of
January. In spite Of the utmost
efforts only $14O,00o has been secured
UP to date. 1t therefore seems best
to attempt to pull the campaign
through according to Mr.. Hills reduced
figure. At this there must be $50, 900
more pledged in the remaining few
days. If this $4,000 can be secured
it will mean 100000 increased endow-
nent for the college. On this revised
plan success is probable and it viii be
an incentive to giyers everywhere to
help close in and win the day.

FOREIGN LIQUIDATION
IS NOTED ON EXCHANGE

New York, Dec. 2S.-The second
week of renewed trading in stocks was
marked by further steady declines
throughout the list, many shares sell
ing under the closing range of July

necessary to suspend operations be-
cause If the war. In the course of

denoted foreign and domestic liquida-

was regarded as especially significant
tina declines were effected on very
light offerings. Steel being almost the
only stock to come out in large
against short selling, hi short interest
was active and contributed in large
measure towards the s~hrinkase OF
values.
Among the unfavorable factors was
the reduction of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company's dividend, which df-
rectly affects the earnings of the
Pennsylvania railroad and gives rise to
conjecture regarding the stability oil
it's own dividend policy. This was seen

THREE YOUNG MEN IN
GREGORY COUNTY ARE
CITED FOR RUSTuING
Extensive Losses of Cattle Led
to Observation-Disclosures
to Sioux City.

Dallas, S. D., Dec. 30.-In the arrest
of three well known young men Of
Gregory county on the charge of cattle
rl1stltng, an attack has been launched
against the numerous mysterious
losses Of stock in the Rosebud country
for the past few months. Those ar
rested are Ed Duncan, Of Gregory, ana
Ray Kobe and Theron Sheib, OF
Dixon. They were taken into custody
by Sheriff II. l. Pierce and Deputies
Ray Garner and Tom Conway, follow
ing extended Investigations.
One of the heaviest losers in Greg
DRY was August Lenser, located near
Dixon, who had II head of cattle
stolen at one time. He has been work
thefts. Some Of the cattle were shipped
to Sioux City commission houses,
though none have been recovered.
Other losses in the Dixon country
have proved conclusively that a well
organized band of rustlers was doing
the work, but no arrests were made
because it was necessary to follow up
various clues, which finally led to
these young men, who had been under
suspicion for some time.
AS soon as the evidence was Sc
cured to make the case strong enough
to warrant action, warrants were Is
sued. Duncan, who lives at Gregory,
waived examination and was released
under $4,000 bono for his appearance
before County Judge Davis on Jan
uary 4.
Kobe and Sheib were taken to Fair
fax and lodged in jail. The hearing
was continued owing to the absence
of the states leading witness and will
be held as soon as he a be brought
to Fairfax.
