Jimmie Gets in Bad

A warrant of arrest was is
sued yesterday for James Cook,
known variously as Dad" and
Powder River Jimmie. - It
seems that ''Dad'', who had
been herding sheep for Henry
Viles, felt the need of vacation
and was accordingly paid off and
allowed to come to town, where
he proceeded at once to gin
up" When he spent his check
in true sheepherder style, he
borrowed more and also obtained
clothing and supplies from local
merchants using as security the
statement that he was going
back to the Viles ranch immedi-
ately.. When it was found that
Henry had fired" him and that
he was jobless, the complaint
was made of obtaining money
under false pretenses. Nell
Reese was deputized yesterday
by Justice Emswiler to make the
arrest.

Large Private Project

O. j. Brownfield of the Box
Elder country in Montana was in
Belle Fourche last week getting
maps and making final arrange
ments on his big irrigation pro-
ject. When completed this will
be one of the largest private ir.
rigation projects in southern
F'allon county, and will irrigate
over three hundred acres of land
belonging to Mr.. Brownfeld.
The dam is nine hundred feet
long, twenty-one feet high, one
hundred and fifteen feet wide at
the bottom and fifteen feet wide
Or top, faced with rock. The
reservoir made by this dam will
cover one hundred eight and six
tenth acres, and will hold six
hundred and twenty acre feet of
water.
The project now represents
seven years work, and on three
occasions the dam has been TAX
en- out by high water. This time
it was put in under the super.
vision of County Engineer S. C.
Berry of Belle Fourche and is so
constructed as to stand any or
binary high water pressure.
Mr.. Brownfeld stated that if
the dam went out again he would
put in another. and stronger than
ever before. - Belle Fourche Bee.

Will Answer to Serious CHARGE
Before the Grand Jury

Jones and VIM. Freese command
ing them to appear as witnesses
before the U. S. District Court
at Helena on June 18th.
The charge is made by the
Postal authorities against a 15-
year-old boy who lives about
half way between Ekalaka and
Baker. The boy about the mid
die of March wrote letters to
VIM. O'Loughlin of Baker and

they did not leave large sums of
money at certain place at a
certain time. The letters were
turned over to the sheriff's Of

the young culprit was apprehend-
ed. Sheriff Mat Jones obtained
a complete confession from him.
bat inasmuch as neither of the
men threatened cared to prose-
cute the matter further, under
the circumstances, the case was
dropped. But in the meantime
the boy had addressed similar
threat to the head of a seed con-
cern in Bismarck, N. D., By the
name Oscar H. Will. who took
the matter up with the Postofhce
a71thor'ties and it was through
this channel that the machinery
of the government was put in
motion.
It is Sheriff Jones opinion
that inasmuch as the lad is only
a "play bandit and his moral
character is otherwise good, the
grand jury will probably deal
lightly with him.
