 Authorities believe Wright be- came enraged when Duncan re- fused to step aside so that the vic- tims wife and Wright might carry on their illicit affair:
 Vt was learned Mrs Duncan ad- mitted that Wright wanted her to desert her husband and eight chill dren and had talked her into it last Friday, for Saturday morning he left his rooming house at 453 North Main street after paying Mrs Henry Hildebrecht his rent up to date He had his belongings in packed suitcases when he left.

BLACKS HILLS RUNNING WITH
 GOLD ACTIVITY
Prospectors Rework Old Claims of Famous 1876
 Rush

Deadwood, S. D.-Gold pan pros- pectors have started placer mining along Black Hills streams with ac- tivity that rivals the famous 1876 rush.
 Because of the unemployment situation and the rise in value of gold, many men have staked out all available ground, and in some cases have installed elaborate equipment with which to coax the yellow gold from its hiding place. Rockers, sluice boxes, Long Toms and modern gold machines are a common sight along French Creek, Potato Gulch and Bear Creek.
 Miners claim that they are mak- ing good wages. Henry Raver, whose dairy farm supplied Presi- dent Coolidge with milk while he was at the state lodge, found placer mining more profitable than dairy farming.
 Average of $2 a yard
 He has been averaging about two dollars a yard, and is reported to have made as much as $25 in a day. On this farm $40.000 in gold was mined in the '70s during sim gle month.
 Potato Creek" Johnny Perrett, a veteran Black Hills prospector. recently found a nugget valued at $150. another at $40 and last year he sold one worth $250. Other prospectors in the Potato Creek district average from $5 to $8 a day.
 Various Methods The prospectors use various methods, the favorite, commonest and least expensive being the pick shovel and gold pan method. By this method the miner picks loose the rocks. shovels coarse gravel into his pan, takes 1t to the side o1 a running stream and lets the water do the work.
 A modern. machine is In use on French Creek. The ore is shov- elled into an ore bin, and from the bin into a funnel where water washes the dirt into a large circu. lar, rotating machine which oper. ates by centrifugal force in much the same manner as a cream sep. arator. The whirling bowl ii cleaned out each night and a little banning separates the gold from the gravel.
 The gold is sent to the mint al | Denver by storekeepers, who buy Il from the prospectors, or sold to g bank.
