BOARD of Relief Me&
When the board OF relief NDnet in
the town clerks Office yesterday aft
ernoon to hear the appeals of the
Berlin town people on the assessors
list of 1920, they went through the
quietest session ever held by the
Berlin board. From the time the
board gathered at 2 o'clock until they
left at s o'clock no one made them
visit. This is in direct contrast to
the meeting of the board last year
when the assessors made a great in
crease in the valuation of all prop
erty. The board will sit again on
February s, Is and 81. There is some
doubt as to whether any complaints
will be made or not. 80.

later in the same school bought a

slaughter house carcasses Of three
hogs were strung up and five live
hogs closed in the barn. The men
then retraced the track which led
them to the Mennonite Colony.
The ninth hog was found ON the
road. Some of the Mennonites
went with them and identified the
hogs. This evidence was sufficient
and King was taken to Springfield
for a preliminary hearing, where
he plead guilty and was taken to
the county Jail at Tyndall when
unable to furnish the $500 bond.
Wednesday, March 10Th he was
taken before Judge Trip at Yank

tiary.

Hog Mystery Solved.
J. b. King, Convicted of Hog Stealing,
Receives Sentence of Two Years in
State Penitentiary.

With the arrest and conviction
of 5. B. King at his home near
Bon HON me, March 10th, the
mysterious disappearance of hogs
belonging to farmers in the Bon
Homme vicinity has been solved.
Altogether there we're ,404 hogs
stolen or lost during the winter
months of 1921, the heaviest los
ers being: Geo. Terrence Is head;
Cooley Bros. so head; Mennonites
4O;' Il. E. Slater 81, and several
others with smaller losses. On &C
count of these startling depreda-
tions it was but self defense for
those who have suffered losses to
act and put stop to it, Accord
ingly D. j. Ward, an experienced
detective of Sioux Falls was put
on the job early in February.
Mr.. Ward arrived incognito and
knowing the desperate chances ia
ken by a man who will steal on a
wholesale scale, was duly sworn in
as deputy sheriff for Bon Homme
county. and armlng himself for
any emergency, set out on the
trail Of the hog thiefs. For thirty
nights he had been out on observa
ton cruises, and finally his effDrts
were rewarded with success when
at midnight March 10th he spied a
man driving nine hogs along the
road a short distance east Of the
Bon Homme school monument as
the glare of certain physicians
car passing by threw light on the
scene. The detective rightly cal.
culated that here was his man, but
dared not to arrest him, fearing
that any such move might cause
his disappearance into the dark,
ness, 50 lie chose to bid bis time
and follow the man to his lair.
This brought him to the King
home near Bon Homme. Before
day break, Mr.. Ward with two fal
mers of that neighborhood went
to Springfield, swore out a war
rant of arrest for King, and arrest
ed him at his home shortly after,
