Broke Bone DRY Law.

Parker.-The first judicial act per.
formed by Judge l.. l. Fleeger after
assuming his official duties was that
of sentencing Ernest Swanson, r. A.
Johnson, ID. l.. Moore and l.. ]. Sack,
who were given a joint fine Of $50 and
costs amounting to $43.5O, for having
in their possession intoxicating liq-
uors. The men came in from Mime
apolis on July 3 to work with a bridge
building crew near Hurley, this coun-
ty. They brought a supply Of liquor
with them from Minnesota. Sheriff
Sessler, at Salem, searched for the
liquor, found 1t and confiscated it. The
men offered to plead guilty. States
Attorney Tug" Wilson, of McCook
county, brought them to Parker from
Salem and they had a hearing here
before Judge Fleeger. They each en-
tered a plea of guilty and asked for
%leniency, saying they did not know
they were violating the new prohibi.
ton law by having liquor in their
possession. They paid their fines and
costs. Judge Fleeger is the additional
or second judge appointed for this
Second judicial circuit created by the
last legislature by adding this county
to the Second and creating another
Judge.

struck by a Duesenberg car driver by
James In the auto races at the Ruskin
park speedway near F~orestburg. The
a was going about So miles an hour.
Williams, who was employed at the
grounds, was crossing the track with
a pair of ~doubletrees on his shoulder.
He apparently saw the car coming,
for he hesitated a moment and then
attempted to hurry ahead just before
being struck. Practically every stitch
OF clothing was torn from his body,
including his shoes. James, who won
second in the event, went four more
laps and completed the fifty miles.
Mackrill in a Chalmers won first place
and Schmidt in a Haynes third place.
Another accident of the day occurred

Conde.-Two masked bandits. one
of whom was badly wounded in a run
ming fight with a posse led by the
town marshal, were captured here aft
er they had entered the local bank
and secured between Sc, 900 and 5 1000.
The money was recovered. The men
drove up before the bank in a stolen
automobile shortly before 8 o'clock
and quickly secured their booty. On
leaving the building the alarm was
raised and business men gave chase
and engaged the men in a pistol bat.
tie. The men are said to be Nike
Mcbride and Louis Miles, who have
lived here about a year.
The owner of the automobile which
the bandits had Communicated was
found tied to a tree outside the town.
Further details of the attempted
robbery indicate that the failure of
Frank Mcbride and Louis Miles to
rob the Bank of Condo and effect a
getaway was due to a series of cir
cumstances rather than to lack OF
preparation or their part. Both men
were well and not unfavorably known
at Condo. Mcbride, who is about 20
years old, had been a barber there
until a year ago. He returned a short
time ago. He was popular, especially
among the young people of the town.
Louis Miles, % years old, had also
been about the town for some time.
On the afternoon of the robbery the
two men halted the automobile of c.
o. Wing, a travelling salesman for a
tire company, as he neared Condo
from Verdon, s. ID. The holdup took
place near a clump of trees, and Wing
was made to leave his automobile,
while Mcbride and Miles tied him
tightly to a tree, assuring him they
would return for him in about an hour.
They then donned masks and drove
Wings car into town. The masks
were their undoing, for they attracted
the attention Of Condo people, and
when the a stopped in front Of the
bank and the masked men went in.

shotguns was quickly formed. The
men meantime lined up Cashier Nc,
MILAN, Miss Alice Little, bookkeeper,
and a farmer customer and locked
them in the bank vault, meantime

$4,000 in currency and coin. BY the
time they were ready to leave the
bank a posse had collected and open.

at the cal door of the bank, fired the
shots which brought Mcbride down.
Miles escaped, but was closely pur.

Quarrel Over Whisky

Sioux Falls.-As the result OF a
quarrel over a drink of whisky, Guy
Arrow, a Sioux Indian living on the
Yankton reservation, was shot and
wounded by Andrew La Plant, another
member of the tribe. Arrows escape
from death was a narrow one, as the
bullet entered his mouth, passed
through the jaw over the tongue and
came out at the neck on the other
side. There vas only one drink of
whisky left in the bottle, and this was
claimed by La Plant. He shot Arrow
because the latter gulped down the
remaining liquor. charging that Arrow
had robbed him OF the drink.
