AN AWFUL CRIME!
A DASIARDLY MURDER!

A short time after 10 O'Clock last night
impelled by jealousy, Ernest David, 80
years of a e. a native of St. Croix, as
saulted and killed one Natividad Quetel
by striking her over the head with a
base bail bat. He also struck and
seriously injured Cecil Levy, a young
man 20 years of age Levy was remov-
ed to the Municipal Hospital where an
operation had to be performed in an
endeavor to save his lie. He is still in
a critical condition.
David has been arrested by the Police.
After committing the crime he took to
the hills around Blue Boards Castle and
remained in hiding there until about
$50 this morning, thus keeping the
Director of Police and his men on the
lob until after 4 o'clock.
He is a member of the Community
Band. 1t appears as if he had been
keeping company with the young wo-
man for some time and that Levy had
been paying her TOO much attention Of
late thus working up the jealousy OF Da
vid, which eliminated in the dreadful act.

The Colonial Council held an ordinary
meeting yesterday afternoon, at which
there was a full attendance o. members.
The Government was represented by the
DIspatching Secretary Discussion Of the
budget for the fiscal year 1928-1929 was
deferred IN view of the fact that the es-
Inmates were based on an approximate
Federal appropriation of $3.50, 600 while
the allowance as now known may BE-
only $3.50, 600. Therefore a new bud
get will be prepared for review at an
early date when an extraordinary meeting
of the council will be called. Most of the
business Of yesterday 5 meeting goes over
to the next meeting.

pointed Chairman of Annu-

butte $1.0O for an Annual membership

joys. the, respect and confidence of

ST. PETER ON LONG
END OF 1875 COUNT
Laidlaw Scores on BODIES Block
ed Punt Shortly After Open
ing. Local Tackling Bad

Blocking a punt by Bode and scor-
ing on the same play by Laidlaw
shortly after the opening gun had
sounded, gave the Redwood Falls
High School football team its only
score in the st. Peter game played
at Redwood Falls last Saturday. The
count ended II to 6 with the visitors
making it two straight losses for the
locals.
Redwood kicked off to open the
game, the ball going deep into the
ST. Peter territory. After several
plays in which the visitors were un-
able to gain a great deal of ground,
punting was resorted to. 1t was on
this play that Laidlaw recovered and
raced through for Redwood's lone
touchdown.
The half ended 6 to with the ST.
Peter team going strong at the time.
Several line smashes and end runs
gave the visitors their first count.
They scored again in the third quar-
ter for the last scoring of the game.
In all probability the great punt
ing of Betlack saved Redwood from
having larger count registered
against them. Upon practically every
occasion that the locals were forced
to punt Betlack gained many yards
in this manner. Good football was
displayed at different times during
the game by the Redwood warriors,
although the tackling done by the
locals was far from good. Except
for possibly three or four tackles
