STOLEN GOODS RECOVERED


Olivet, July 27.-The local author
tiles evidently made an important
capture when they arrested a man,
giving his name as John Murray, on
the charge of peddling without a Ii
cense He was found guilty on this
charge and was fined $50. In de-
fault of the payment of the fine he
has been lodged in the county Jail.
Since his arrest the authorities in
spected some of the goods he had
with him, and which he had been
peddling owe the county. and some
of the goods have been identified as
part of the loot taken by an unknown
person who recently entered the gen
eral store of G.. Doering 4 Son, of
Trip. and carried away goods to the
value of several hundred dollars.
Doering came to Olivet and identi-
fled some of the goods. He took
samples back with him to Trip, and
they proved to be identical with
goods on the shelves of his store.
When he serve his present term for
peddling without a license it is likely
that Murray will be rearrested on the
charge of burglary and prosecuted IN
this charge.

HOG CHOLERA NEAR RENNER
Andrew Aasen Loses Eighty Animals
from Disease.

Renner. July 27-Another cpl
demic of hog cholera is feared BY
farmers in the country north of Sioux
Falls. according TO reports of ravages
of the disease that have been receiv-
ed here today. Andrew Aasen. who
resides near Renner. recently lost
eighty hogs and at least one other
case in hat part of the county is sus-
pected.
Many of the farmers who strongly
urged action by the county commits
sioners in providing funds for the
employment of a county agricultural
agent in Minnehaha county are in
clined to seek further action now In
an appeal TO the board for such a
specialist who can give a part of his
attention to stamping out cholera
and other disease epidemics among
live stock. Their attitude is that the
loss on n drove of hogs alone
would meet most of the expense the
county would be called upon for its
share in the employment Of a coun-
ty agent.

DAKOTA RESORTS
SIOUN FALLS NEWSPAPER Halls
DAY OF ELECTRIC LINES
To LAKES.

Sioux Falls Press. The time will
come when South Dakotans will get
IA of the habit of going to other
states for summer outings. Some
day the lakes in South Dakota will
be converted into resorts equal to,
if not better, than the lakes of neigh
boring states and certainly more con
venient of access for South Dakotans.
That fine, progressive spirit which
has developed Watertown into one OF
the three leading cities of South Da-
kota will before many more years
have passed grow trees on the shores
of beautiful Lake Kampeska and
thus invite cottage builders in larger
numbers. We wish Sioux Falls had
only six miles distant, such a lake as
that. Lake Madison will eventually
come into its own as a summer resort
for South Dakotans. and Brandt lake.
near Chester. is already being inn
proved by a group of promoters who
are building cottages and bathing
and boating equipment. Nearer
Sioux Falls Is Wall lake, one of the
smaller bodies of water, but large
enough to justify great improvement.
An electric line ought to be laid the
twelve miles from Sioux Falls TO
Wall lake.
Mountain scenery as beautiful as
the best afforded by the Rockies and
the Cascades Is found in the Black
Hills region of South Dakota. Pic
t%uresque rock and soil formation as
unique as anything in Colorado or in
the national parks abounds in the
South Dakota bad lands. Mystery as
deep as nature has created anywhere
faseinates the visitors to the Wind
cave in South Dakota. And where
are there more healthful waters than
at Hot Springs in this state?
South Dakotans can hasten the
day when the recreation of
this state are developed. All Water
town wants to encourage improve
ment of Lake kampeska is assurance
that those who are now going to
lakes in other states will make the
most of the Codington county beauty
spot. When it is made apparent that
Sioux Falls appreciates such lakes As
Madison and Brandt, the Milwaukee
and Great Northern lines will Ger
tainly run gasoline-electric trains be
tween the city and those escorts at
convenient intervals. Once il is
demonstrated Sioux Falls desires to
romp at Wall lake a way will be
found to run electric cars there.
And if the people will get into the
habit of visiting the scenic wonders
of the Black Hills, the railroads will
begin exploiting hat region and Civ
ing il the prestige to which ii is en-
titled.

Armour-Leo Dennit. a farm boy,
10 years of age, was drowned today
while in bathing with some compan-
ions five miles south of Armour.
None of them could swim. Dennit
got into deep water and the others
were afraid TO go in to help him.
Pierre-It appears that there will
be no vote on division of Butte coun-
ty this year, as the county commits

vote on county removal TO Brandt.
