Sioux Falls , S. D. . Aug. 5. That the

SHERIFF CLEMENTS WANTS BO-
CHE TRANSFERRED.
FOR "CONVENIENT" KEEPING
A Sheriff Has the Right to Place Any
Prisoner In Any Safe and Conveni
ent Place Dr. Young Took Matter
Under Consideration.
[ From Monday's Dally.1
Sheriff Clements of Madison Mon-
lay morning requested Dr. Q. A.
Young , superintendent of the state in
sane hospital hero , to receive as a
irlsonor Herman Bocho , slayer of
'rank Jarmer , until the murder trial
icxt fall. Dr. Young took the matter
mder advisement and said that he
vould give his answer to the request
luring the alfernoon.
Judge Welch took no action on the
writ of habeas corpus filed In Boche's
jehalf at the Saturday afternoon ses
sion of district court , other than to ad
vise the sheriff that , under the law ,
10 has authority to place any prisoner
n any safe and convenient prison ,
whether that bo a jail in some other
county , the penitentiary or , if the hos-
| ) ltal authorities consented and the
sheriff wished , in a state Insane hos
pital. It is the sheriff's right , said the
judge , to place prisoners in a safe and
convenient place.
All Up to the Sheriff.
The matter of where Bocho shall
bo confined , therefore , was put alto
gether up to Sheriff Clements. And
Monday morning ho applied at the
state Insane hospital for permission
Lo confine in that Institution the Nor
folk murderer of Frank Jarmer.
"In case Dr. Young agrees to take
llocho into custody , it will bo merely
as a prisoner at the request of the
sheriff , " said County Attorney Jack
Koenigsteln. "I fall to see where the
state insane hospital has authority to
take care of a prisoner in this way. "
Would See it in The News.
It was said that in case Boche should
bo admitted to tlio hospital , that fact
would have no bearing whatever as
to liis mental condition since adjudica
tion upon this point is entirely outside
the jurisdiction of the sheriff. The
county attorney suggested that If Bo
cho were allowed to be imprisoned in
an insane hospital , however , that fact
would tend to prejudice a jury into
the belief that Boclie had shown signs
of insanity. Attorney Allen for the
defense , however , declared that the
fact would not bo brought before the
jury. Tlio county attorney then urged
a"s argument against this procedure
that everybody In Madison count }
would know of it , because they woultl
see it in The Norfolk Daily News.
The county attorney suggested that
Boclie be taken to the penitentiary for
safe keeping , but counsel objected.
Asked by the county attorney whether
or not the Madison jail is safe , Sheriff
Clements said that it was. The point
therefore , upon which the sheriff based
his application for admission of the
murderer to the hospital was the mat
ter of "convenience. "
Sheriff Clements was accompanlet
to the hospital by Attorneys Mapes
and Tyler of this city.
In Case It Were Refused.
In case Dr. Young refused to admit
the prisoner , Senator Allen said that
he would proceed with his mandamus
to compel the Madison county boari
of insanity to act upon the complaint
filed some time ago , alleging Bocho to
be insane.
At that time the hoard decided that
Boche's mental condition was not a
matter for tlio Madison county boart :
to pass upon , since ho was a prisoner
under the supervision of the district
court.
Boosting.
Omaha World-Herald : The big mall
order house of Montgomery Ward &
Co. has printed and is sending over
the country a circular entitled "Every
Knock is a Boost. " In this circular
they quote a score or more of articles
from the newspapers of the country
denouncing the mall order houses.
Nobody has over doubted that the
catalogue houses knew the value ol
publicity. Anything that calls the at
tention of the public to the fact of
their existence , whether it is compll
mentary or not , they regard as worth
the expense of publication and mail
ing. Others may profit by their ex
ample , if others would compete with
them.
However , there is another reason
why Ward & Co. spread abroad these
articles denouncing them as fakers
and adulterators and short-welghters
etc. Most of the accusations are no
true. It does no good to make false
charges against an enemy. The mai
order houses are enemies of the com
munltles where they sell goods , but 1
is not because they do a fraudulen
business. It is because the citizen o
Blankvllle , when he sends his money
to Chicago , Is boosting Chicago and
making Blankvlllo poor. And in the
poverty which ho is doing his best to
promote ho is including himself ; ho Is
depreciating the value of his own
farm or town lot ; ho is helping to deprive
privo his children of the school ndvant
ages and his family of the living com
forts that are part of a prosperous
community.
Tlio local merchant and the loca
newspaper are not hurting the cata
oguo dealer by calling him a thief ,
localise the people that deal with him
uiow that he Is not. The way to hurt
your Chicago competitor is to help
'ourself the merchant by advertising
and the newspaper by boosting its own
own and cultivating a spirit of local
irldo. Bo a booster all the time.
BOCHE IN COURT TODAY.
His Writ of Habeas Corpus Case Com
ing up at Madison.
County Attorney Jack Koonlgstcln
was notified Saturday morning that
W. V. Allen , attorney for Bocho , would
go Into the district court In the after
noon seeking a writ from Judge Welch
to compel the commissioners of insan
ity to pass on the sanity of Bocho.
Tlio action waa brought Friday by Sen
ator Allen In person and directed
against Dr. F. A. Long , Clerk of the
District Court W. II. Field and Attor
ney James Nichols as members of the
commission.
The original Insanity complaint was
filed with the commissioners by Sen
ator Allen. At the time set for the
tearing the commissioners sustained
; ho county attorney's contention that
. ] \o charge of murder against Bocho
: ook the matter beyond their jurisdic
tion.
County Attorney Koonlgstoin was
also notified Saturday morning that
other motions In the Bocho case would
bo brought up for decision before
Judge Welch.
The session of the district court at
Madison was a special session called
to handle some court business that
liad accumulated at Madison. Judge
Welch passed through Norfolk at noon
for Madison and was joined in the
city by Attorneys Koenlgstein , Hazen ,
Tyler and Mapes.
PICKED HIS POCKET FOR $47.
Frank Conute Lost Good Sized Bunch
Out of Hip Pocket.
Frank Conute of Norfolk went to
the races with $47 In his hip pocket
Conute wore no coat and it was easy
money for the light fingered individual
who slipped his hand in for the roll.
No clue to the pick pocket was ob
tained.
Police Court Notes.
He was a colored gentleman from
Sioux City and ho spent his time dur
ing the races in poking his head
through a split canvas to furnish
amusement and a good mark for ball
throwers at two cents a throw. But
in moments when business was slack
ho took on a jag and last evening tried
to scalp a man with a hatchet. The
police gathered him in as a common
drunk.
Norfolk behaved herself with rea
sonable decorum during the big rac
ing meet but. there were plenty of
ragged corners to keep the chief and
his specials busy. An occasional fight ,
the wayward drunk and the like sup
plied the justice mills in the Norfolk
courts.
To the "what's-the-use ? " sort of
folks the want ads. are not interesting.
