LANCASTER INsTITUTE-D. GRAY PUR.
MAN A. M. Principal.

The patrons of Lancaster Institute are
hereby informed that the same will be re-
opened for its appropriate work on We'd
nesday, April 1st, 1868.
In taking charge Of this school, Mr..
Purman would beg leave to say to the
people of Lancaster, that be hopes to
merit by faithfulness and industry in his
labors, the confidence Of all, and justify
the expectations of those who have induced
him to accept the responsibilities Of the
position. His experience Of several years
in similar position, in the West, he
trusts, will not be without its advantage.
in enabling him to build up good schools
lie would suggest, that, in times like
these, it is not wisdom to begin retrench-
ment with the school; he, therefore, asks
that the plea of the times will not be made
against liberal patronage
To the citizens of Lancaster and imme-
date surroundings he looks for hearty
and special suppon. To this intelligent
people, it is not necessary to mention the
large benefits reflected upon community
by living. thorough school. The sup
port received and the benefit conferred are
mutual.
Whilst every effort will be made to adj
vance pupils in their several respective
classes, their higher nature will not be for
gotten or neglected,
Discipline viii be mildly enforced, yet
promptly, impartially, faithfully.
We urge pupils being present at the
opening of the term.
Such assistance viii be had as is re-
quired.
Instructions in music viii be given by a
thorough teacher.
Tuition per term, DC, as heretofore.
Payment Of tuition required by the mid
die of the term. u. q. PURMAN.

and brought west BY rattle-mouthed agents,
we're cleaned out, the soil Of Grant County
as well as the climate of this section has
beer vel proven 10 be equal to any in the
United States for apples. Those years
swept out the same class of bogus trees
from New York, New England and thai
braa fruit State, New Jersey, as also Ohio
and Kentucky. And for some years it
was thought that apple trees were at last a
failure i'll all those States, as well as WIS

been well demonstrated that the failures
eyerywhere were confined to sickly trees
and that such sickly trees came from de-
fective grating or propagating; also that
trees, whether seedlings or grated the old

very we'll and are now as good as ever.
Apple trees may be had in this county

Amount of funds paid into County Treas
ury for county purposes. as per Auditors
Book-S3476,5O.
Total amount of outstanding warrants-
$9OlS,12.
Amount ofproperty Tax for 1868 for coun-
ty purposes 9893,7O; deduct per cent

Amount of Property Tax exceeding the
amount Of outstanding warrants-S479,84 +;
probable amount of supplemental tax-$1OO !;
total-$ 479,84.
The above statement does not include fines
collected, as no receipt foe fines has been filed
in my Office since the organization of the
county there has been money paid into the
Treasurer, but the persons paying have not
fled their receipts in my office; if they had
fled their receipts the statement would have
been more favorable to the county. Theonly
revenue that can be relied upon from Jan. LIST
to May 1st 1864, will be the amount received
from licenses, and I think it licenses are coll
lected promptly sh@ county will be very little
if any, in debt on the lat day of May, 1864.

Two Horse THIEVES SHOT On the Goth

Two HoRsE-THlEvEs SHOT On the Goth
of Oct. two men came to the house of Mr.. J.
S. Henderson, 90 Buena Vista bar, and seeing
that he had very fine span of horses asked
him what he would take for them. He an
Swered that he was stranger here, and that
his family being in delicate health and without
wood or other conveniences for Winter, would
obligs him to keep them until he could pre-
pare for cold weather. The parties went
away, and that night the horses we're stolen,
together with another animal belonging to J.
Gregory. Mr.. Henderson started immediate
ly in quest of the horses and thieves, travelling
day and night in the direction of Lewiston,
being Joined on the way by Peter Williams,
Dan Taylor and B. F. Parrish. all of whom
had lost stock and at Camas Prairie they over
took two men encamped, one Of whom seemed
to recognize Mr.. Henderson and drew up a
wager and snapped it at him. Mr.. HI. imme-
diately fired a. his assalant with a shotgun
bringing him to the ground. The remaining
thief-for such they proved to be- then fired
AG"OlFCIl out HltIIOiL EuECLs 1lSnuGFSOu
drew bis revolver and fred, killing the man
instantly. The pursuing party then approach
ed the camp and found that the man wounded
with the shotgun was still alive and able to
talk. He gave his name as Harry Welch,
but the other mans name he did not give
He also told them where they would find Mr.
HendersOn's finest animal, which was mare
worth $500, which he said had given out and
they had shot her; the other they had with
them. Mr.. Gregory's horse they did not find.
There were five saddles in camp and two
black horses and one bay, which are supposed
tn have been stolen, but no owners had claim
ed them up to the time our informant left.
They left the wounded man in charge of some
F9enchmen who lived about four miles from
the scene of the tragedy, and returned. At
the place designated they found the animal
that had been left, but she, was not able to
travel, having been shot in the hip. Mr.. H.
got home on Thursday night last. Il
