FORMER RESIDENT OF
LYMAN COUNTY KILLED
IN EUROPEAN BATTLE
Enlisted With Canadian Troops
and Was In Service Less
Than Two Weeks.

Murdo. S. D.. July 16.-Information
has reached the state Of the death in
battle in France of Robert Watts. for
merly a Lyman county h~omsteader,
and who so far as known was the only
former resident of Lyman county who
was In any of the armies OF the coun-
tries now at war in Europe.
News of the death of Watts was re-
ceived through his son. Robert Watts,
Jr.. of Bloomfield. N. Y, who spent his
younger years on a South Dakota
homestead with his father. In May a
letter was received by South Dakota
friends from the elder Watts stating
that he had enlisted with the Canadian
contingent n was a member of the
Black Watch" (Royal Highlanders).
n was leaving England for France.
This was the last heard from him
by any of his friends or relatives in
this country except his son in New
York state. who received a letter from
his father about the same time that he
wrote to old friends in South Dakota.
Watts resided in Lyman county up
to a few years g when he made final
proof on a homestead near Murdo. He
was a man who had a host of friends.
being of an unusually jovial nature.
After leaving South Dakota he o
up his residence in New York state,
where he remained until he enlisted in
the Canadian contingent of the British
army. He had been at the front less
than two weeks when he was killed.

COLLIE GUIDES POSSE
IN SEARCH FOR CHILD
LOST IN RAPID CREEK
Little One Followed Father to
Corral, Wandered Away and
Fell Into Stream.

Rapid City. S. D., July 15.-Guided
by the instinct of q collie, searchers
found the body Of the 2h-year-old son
of Samuel Barber in Rapid creek. a
mile below the fathers ranch. AS was
his custom. Mr.. Barber too the little
boy to the corral when he went there
early in the morning to do h milk
ing. The father noticed the boy play
ing with the collie and thought no
more bou 1t until he finished his
task.
When he turned out his COWS the
collie came to him, showing unusual
signs of distress. Then the father
looked about for the boy and missed
him. The creek flows near the corral
and toward it the collie kept running
and returning. Not finding the boy
at the house nor about the barns, it
was conjectured that he had fallen
into the creek.
Neighbors were summoned and a
party began dragging the creek bot
tom without success. Following the
bank of the creek down for a mile,
the collie located the body Of the boy.
1t had lodged on a bar, having been
rolled there by the current.
