The Dickinson plant is considered an important unit in the Hughes system because it is practically at one end of the main power line, with Bismarck at the other end and Beu- lah at a central point. These three stations will. develop enough power to supply the entire western part of the state. Faith in the continued growth and development of the West Slope have prompted him to make the improve- ment on the Dickingon station, Mr. Hughes said, DEEP MYSTERY SHROUDS RAID OF ARCOS, LTD.

His time was the quickest ever made from coast to coast. He is the only pilot to have made such a trip alone. His time from San Diego to, St. Louis, about 1,600 miles, was 14 hours five minutes and from St. Louis to New York, about 950 miles, | 7 hours and 15 minutes. The time made by Lieutenants Kelly and Mac- Ready, in their non-stop cross-con- ‘tinent flight in 1923, was 26 hours, 50 minutes. Lindbergh Wins Admiration So great was the admiration roused by his two great hops across the country that the crowd at Curtiss Field would not have been greatly surprised to see him fill up his gas tank and start right out for. Paris. Several persons actually shouted the question at him as he climbed from the cockpit of his plane. “No,” Lindbergh replied, taking the question as seriously as it was meant. “I don’t feel just like setting | off on a 35 or 36 hour hop right! now.” | He showed no signs of ' fatigue,! however, and did not retire until} after midnight.

Ronald Hastings; 16 years of age, the old- est of the Hastings family to be at home, gave a vivid picture of. the tragedy. He said that he had been sent by his father to help drive the horses held by Flint back to the Hastings farm. He started on hors. back about the same time that his father started for the Flint farm in a bugey accompanied by Hastings, 14 years of age. Ronald reached the Flint farm he was a little in advance of his father and younger broth Flint refused to release the horses and, when the elder Hastings arrived, a heated argument took place. Hastings finally pulled out his, heavy revolver and began shooting at Flint. When the ‘first shot was ired, which Ronald said he believed went wild, Roland and brother mounted the former's horse and started for home.
