Mystery surrounds the identity of a well dressed man who was found unconscious on a street in the eastern section of Sioux Falls. He was removed to a hospital where he yet remains in an unconscious state. The attending physician has been puzzled by the case and declared that the man was not overcome by the heat. There was nothing in the pockets of the stranger which would lead to his identification. All that could be found was a railway ticket from Wentworth to Madison, and this may ultimately result in the identity of the man being established.
