NICK FARAcELLl IS
 FOUND SANE BY JURY;
 MURDER CASE GOES ON

A jury in the Commissioners court yesterday afternoon returned Q yer dict that Nick Faracelli, charged with murder of Mike Define at Doug las, is sane. The trial of Faracelli was due to an order issued by Judge Jennings after Faracelli had been seized with ft in the court room when brought up for trial.
 Faracelli has been acting queer for some time. and guards at the jail testified yesterday that he was evidently shammng. When he knew the guards were looking he would throw fits and act as if he were in- sane. When guards were not look ing he was apparently perfectly nor nal. They attribute his insanity play e the influence of Krause, with whom Faracell was confined for some time Krause is said to have been seen talking to Faracelli and instructing him how to act
 Dr. DeVighne testified that Faia- cell, in his opinion. is a very badly frightened and hysterical man. but that he would not take the respon- sibllity of testifying whether he was sane or not. There is nothing in his physical condition to indicate a condition of insanity, according to the testimony of the physician.
 Faracelli testifylng in his own be- half. stated that he had Q great deal Of trouble with his head. He also testified that he could not remem- Der things for any length of time,

NO DRY GAS OR OIL,
PROF. TODD REPORTS
Geologist Says the Formations
Near Pierre Give No Excuse
For Drilling Oil Wells.

Pierre, s. D.. Aug. 26.--That there is
no hkenhood OF ary gas Or OIL In this
region is the conclusion reached by
Professor Todd, formerly STATE geolo
gist OF South Dakota, who has Leen
hacking Il careful examination of the
cenua portion OF the STATE at the re-
quest OF interested citizens, who have
thought perhaps the arLesian waters
and the supply of natural gas abound
ing IN this portion did indicate the
presence CT oil or dry gas below.
Professor Todd, in has report, says
that dry gas ana oil are found in strala
folded into an anticlipal riage or dome.
ms conclusion, after examination or
the section of country here is that no
trace mas been found OF any anticlInal
or dome uplltt in this Vlcluily. DIl.ing,
without finding such an upliIt, | should
consider foolish, for not only would it
be pure gamble, but like buying a
ticket IN take lottery In which there
is probably no prize; tor, without con-
centratIon by an anucline or dome,
there is probably no oil or dry gas TO
obtain. l am disappointed with the
rest of you in the result of my work,
and regret that l have to report as |
have, but the truth is what we all want
to know"
Professor Todd says there is also an
other type of oil and gas we'll which
Is found i'll porous strata, such as sand,
and fissured limestone and shales, and
rarely, if ever, in clays and shales,
which are impervious. In Wyoming,
Colorado and California the oil occurs
in formations above the Dakota sand
stone which carries the artesian wa
ter, he states; but that it should SO
occur in South Dakota seems certain
ly disproved for all parts of our state
where artesian wells have been sunk,
for in none OF them have noticeable
quantities of either oil or gass been
found"
Professor Todd came into this sec
ton at the request of committees of
Pierre and Fort Pierre citizens. His ex-
amination has extended considerably
north of Pierre, TO Chantier and Ol1o-
bojo creek, Sully county, and south of
Fort Pierre up Bad river, and both
east and west of Pierre along the Mis-
souri, bluffs quite a distance
