Rev. Mr.. sterrett's Departure.

To the Editor Of the Leader: .
DEAR SIR:-WM you permit me the
use of your columns for a communica-
ton of general interest?
The Rev. Mr.. Sterrett, of st. Marks
Episcopal church, has been advised by
his physician to seek a change of climate
as the best, and possibly, only means of
recovery from the serious illness under
which he has suffered during several
weeks past. Unable to see many of his
Pensioners, MI. Sterrett wishes in
this manner, to express, to those he
cannot meet personally, his very earnest
and sincere regret at being thus obliged
to leave them, and to break the ties
which, although recently formed, were
already highly valued. 4
Nothing but the probability that many
weeks must elapse before he could
again fill his pulpit, together with his
physicians positive assurance that re-
lief from disease and complete r~estora-
ton to health could be much more
speedily attained by a short residence
east than remaining here, has induced
him to consent to a step that, under
happier circumstances, would so Lit tie
accord with his feelings.
Very truly yours.
THos. STUReIs.

Black Hills Ore,

The Omaha Republican Of Saturday
says: John Cummins, of the Black
Hills, who arrived here on Thursday
from the west, brought with him a
Large keg, heavy with ore specimens
from his quartz claims in the Hills. He
had them assayed at the smelling works
in this city yesterday morning, and the
assay from the three best lodes gave
1921, 1925 and S237 in silver to the ton.
Mr.. Cummins has been to the ''front''
since 40, in California, Montana, Colo
RADIO, and now in the Black Hills. His
principal claim is Merritt Lode, Nc. 1,
in Bare Butte district, which is owned
by Fred Evans, of Sioux City, and
himself in equal shares. They also
own two toll-roads from Deadwood to
Box Elder, twenty miles long.

To satisfy the curiosity of 1887 per-
ons who have asked us during the past
few weeks the meaning of the term
''bull-dozing," so frequently seen in
the newspapers and heard on every
hand, of late, we have, at great trouble
and expense, clipped from "A well-posted
Louisiana exchange, the subjoined
definition of the word:
1.-The bull-dozers are members of
Democratic secret societies in Louis
lana and Mississippi, most of them
called the "White League" formed
for the purpose of whipping into the
Democratic ranks the negroes who
showed a desire to act with the Repub-
licans. After serving on the suspected
negro three notices to join the ''socie-
tyr and take the oath, if he was still
recusant, the society brought him in by
force and gave him a last chance to
join. If he still refused he was tied up
and whipped with a bull whip, even to
the extent of several hundred lashes.
The whipping was called a bull dose,
and from these pleasant practices came
the verb bull-dose, which was corrupted
to bull-doze, and bull-dozing and bull
doZers became common slang.

The Original Tennessee Jubilee Sing
ers have become deservedly popular in
their efforts torevivea and render some of
the remnants of the old-time slave mel
odies that, tinged with the sadness of
bondage and life in the sunny South,
have about them SO much quaint humor
and sentiment of the race, and that
TEEN with harmony. The emotional
and religious in the makeup of negro
character m to the surface in every
line. The strange, vibrating, camp
meeting airs seem to be a sketch, be-
believers, while the plaintive, pathetic
ballads touch a chord in the hearts no

voices Of much power and sweetness in
the troup.

A Denver girl, of doubtful age,''
married a youth of twenty not long
ago, and determined not to be bothered
over the matter. Expecting a serenade
with tin pans, horns and other noise
makers, she turned her house into an
arsenal on the night of the wedding.
The musicians approached cautiously,
and were just in the act of giving the
first blast, when bang, went four guns
from the front windows of the dwell
ling. Those fellows didn't succeed in
serenading the ''young couple" but
consumed the remainder Of the night
in picking mustard seed shot from their
faces and necks.

FROZEN TO DEATH.
Sad Fate of an Old Settler Thrown
FROM His Horse on the Prairie.
He Meets Death in the
Cold Embrace of the
Frost King.

"Old Ben Ward,' is dead. He had
passed mans allotted time, three-seore
and ten, six winters having silyered his
hair and made deeper the wrinkles on
his face since his SEVENTEEN birthday.
The good old man did not pass away in
the peace and quiet of his own house
hold, with wife, children and friends
about him, TO soothe his dying hours
and ease as far as possible the chilling
pangs of death. Sadder than this, no
kith or kin of his are left to mourn his
loss, for in all this wide world there
lives not one through whose veins
courses the same blood.
Last Saturday night deceased left the
city, his destination being the ranch of
MI. E. w. Whitcomb, three miles north
west of here, on Crow creek. He was
expected there, and his o arrival that
night caused some disappointment, but
as he was thought to have stopped in
the city, no great anxiety was felt. Sun
day morning, however, the pony which
he rode was seen neal the house, and
search was instituted for Ward. Mr..
Whitcomb came into town, and the
day vas consumed by him in a fruitless
hunt for the missing man. Night came
again, and still there were no tidings of
Ward. The search was resumed Mon
day morning, other parties joining Mr..
Whitcomb, but it was late in the after
noon before the body of the lost man
was found on the prairie, just beyond
Fort Russell, little more than a mile
from town. He was lying on his
face, stiff and cold in the embrace of
death.
1t is believed that he was thrown
from his horse and stunned SO that be-
fore he recovered he was wrapped in the
sleep caused by intense cold, and from
that passed into his last sleep. The body
was several hundred yards from the
road, and the probability is that Ward,
instead of taking the road to the ranch
(which leaves the Black Hills road just
beyond Fort Russell), followed the
Black Hills road until he discovered
his mistake, and then turned across the
prairie toward the ranch road, but was
thrown from his horse before reaching
it, this causing the delay and difficulty
in finding his body.
Benjamin Ward was one of the early
settlers of the Magic City. He came
here with a son, Seth Ward, who kept
a grocery for a time, and who died
about three years ago. Seth's wife now
lives on the South Platte, neal Evans,
Colorado, and the old man has resided
with her since his sons death, and has
made visits to Mr.. Whitcomb two OF
three times a year for several years.
Coroner Talbot will hold an inquest
on the body at 10 o'clock this morning,
and the funeral of deceased will take
place this afternoon, the expense being
borne by his many old friends here.
Deceased was respected and loved by
all who knew him.
