game commission has maintained here
for tn past two years was destroyed
by fire which started from some I'M

The hatchery was put in for the pur-
pose Of testing the water from q GER
tain spring here for trout Matching
and IL the water proved all right a
permanent hatchery was to have been
built farther down stream in the city.
This would eliminate the necessity Of
pumping the water. This was delayed
on account Of the high cost of PIPING
but it is thought that the state will
now erect the permanent building.
The past two years big matches Of
trout have been brought off at the

Carthage, S. d., Jan. 1S.-Jewelry
thieves set fire to and attempted to
destroy a Carthage jewelry store after
robbing the place of a considerable
quantity Of jewelry. The fire evidently
was started with the object of destroy
ing the place and thus covering up
the robbery. The unknown thieves
forced an entrance to the jewelry es-
tablishment of Jens Jensen and after
helping themselves to such jewelry as
they wanted, saturated the interior
with oil and, set fire to it, then made
their escape. When first discovered
the fire was supposed to have started
by the explosion Of a keroeene lamp.
"Scotty" Brown, sleeping in an upstair
room. was nearly suffocated by the
smoke. A rear window of McCann's
barber shop also was broken open and
a quantity of oil thrown into the
building in an effort to destroy it.
