Der after the single rife shot was see
ing his hand go back as he whirled and
shot instantly toward the heavy re-
port. He had whipped out his gun
and fired sidewise through the window
at the sound.
That was ALL The bartenders
breathed and looked again. Men were
crowding like mad through the back
doors. De Spain, at the cigar case,
looking intently into the rainy street,
lighted from the corner by a dingy
lamp. The four men near him had not
stirred, but, startled and alert, the
right hand of each covered the butt OF
u revolver. De Spain moved first.
While the pool players damned the
back doors to escape, he spoke to,
without looking at, the bartender.
"What's the matter with your cur

volver and pointing with an expletive

saw that the bare pane had been cut,
just above the middle, by two bullet
holes. Curious men examined both
fractures when De Spain and Lefever
had left the saloon. The first hole was
the larger. 1t had been made by a
high-powered rife; the second was
from q bullet of a Colts revolver; it
was remarked as miracle of gun-play
that the two were hardly an inch apart.
In the street few minutes later. De
Spain and Lefever encountered Scott,
who, with his back hunched up, his
cheap black hat pulled we'll down over
his ears, his hands in his trousers
pockets and his thin coat collar mod
estly turned against the driZzling rain,
was walking across the parkway from
the station.
''SassOOn is in town." exclaimed Lee
fever with certainty after he had told
the story. He waited for the Indians
opinion. Scott, looking through the
water dripping from the brim of his
seasoned derby, gave it in one word.
"Was," he amended with a quiet
smile.
Lets make sure" insisted Lefever.
"Supposing he might be in town yet,
Bob, where is he?"
Scott gazed up the street through the
rain lighted by yellow lamps on the
obscure corners, and looked down the
street toward the black reaches of the
river, eff he's here, you'll find him
in one of two places. Tensions"
"But we've just come from Teni-

II mean, across the street, upstairs
or at Jim Kitchens barn. If he was
hurried to get away" added Scott re-
hectively, "he would slip upstairs over
there as the nearest place to hide; if
he had time he would make for the
barn, where it would be easy to cache
his rifle.
Lefever took the lapel of the scouts
coat in his hand. 'Then you, Bob, go
out and see if you can get the whole
story. I'll take the barn. Let Henry
go over to Tensions and wait at the
head of the stairs till we can get back
there"
De Spain found no difficulty in locat-

to the gambling rooms. 1t was the only

Deuel. TO Have New Court House

While over at Clear Lake last
week a number Of our people who
were over at the good roads meet
ing took the opportunity to
view the new court house in pro-
cess Of erection for Deuel. county.
The building is not SO far advanced
as the court house here, and is as
yet quite incomplete, but when fin
ished will undoubtedly present q.
fine appearance. 1t is somewhat
smaller than the Grant County
structure, being 20 feet shorter
and five feet narrower. The con-
tract price was some $4,000 more
than the contract for the Grant
County building, as the latter was
bid for nearly a year before, and
before prices of material had TAX
the big advances they did short
~ after the contract was let. The
new building at Clear Lake will be
something Deuel. county citizens
will be proud of when the building
is completed.

State Fair
A Food Training Camp.

Since the announcement several
weeks ago, which stated emphatical-
ly that there was no intention of
''calling off, the State Fair this
year, but that it would be operated
as a Food Training Camp in the
voluntary service of the Govern
ment, the plan has been commented
upon very highly by the public.
The management Of the South
Dakota State Fair fails to see why
any one should believe that the war
is apt to cause the Fair to be dis
continued. 1t is needed more this
year than ever before because of
the assistance it can give in stimu-
lating the production Of more food
and it's conservation. Plans for
the Food Training Camp are being
formulated rapidly and the many
educational features will cause the
Fair to be of great assistance to
the Government.
The Fair is to be held Septem-
Der 10th to 14th inclusive, this
year.
By addressing secretary Of the
state fair at Huron the premium
list for 1917 will be sent to any
address.
