There has been a slight change
made in the firm of Scheeline Bros,
which is not at all liable to ef-
feet the efficiency Of that solid
concern. We understand that
Mr.. S. Oppenheimer, the young
gentleman who arrived in our
city a short time ago and took charge
Of the books Of the house, has been
taken in as a partner, and his name
now figures in the cO-partnership.
The Messrs. Scheeline are sharp, pro-
gressive, experienced merchants,
having graduated behind the coun-
ter and have conducted business for
themselves for years. Mr.. Open
heimer, while the weight Of many
winters have not scored his pate
with threads Of silver, is yet an old
hand in the mercantile line for a
comparatively young man, and his
presence as a member will add
strength to the firm. The gentle
men now have the satisfaction OF
enjoying an enormous and growing
trade, carry a stock marvellous in
its proportions and variedness, and
will continue to increase as the de-
mands of the country justify the
outlay. We congratulate Mr.. OPP
penheimer upon his good fortune in
securing a place in such a firm, and
congratulate Messrs. Scheeline in Sc
curing such an able partner.

Francis II. Cook, eX-editOr Of the
old Times, now a prosperous granger
and experimenter, living on the
southern edge Of the city, and with
al a deuced good fellow, is making
many additions and Improvements
about his valuable place that prom
isc in the end TO be the source of con-
siderable revenue to the owner. lie
now has one Of the best built saw
mills in the country. The capacity
of the mill is not great, only some
1900 to 5000 feet per day, but it is
complete in every detail and is sufIl-
cient to cut the standing timber on
his own place and that of his neigh
bors. The engine also runs feed
mill in conjunction with the saw
mill, and Mr.. Cook has applied the
power to his job press, reminiscence
of his old profession that he cannot
get along without, and upon which
he does considerable work. The
latest addition to his line of expert
ments, in which the engine is again
to take a prominent part, is the
building of series Of hot houses.
Mr.. Cook proposes to construct four
Of these green, or hot, houses, each
llxIO feet, giving him a large sur
face of ground to work. Beds Of
rich earth will be constructed under
the glass projections, and the heat
will be conducted through the houses
and evenly distributed by the means
of steam pipes. The gentleman has
something over 200 feet Of fOur-inch
pipes to lay. These pipes will run
under the beds, thus heating the
ground in which seed is planted. He
will grow all kinds of garden truck
and proposes also to raise many va
rieties of flowers besides walnut
plants. When in working order Mr..
Cook can supply the market in the
midst Of winter with all kinds Of
green edibles, and the Spokanite
can sit down to his Christmas din
ner Of fresh raddishes, lettuce, beets,
and probably many other varieties
Of vegetable luXuries. The project
ought to succeed If for nothing else
than to reward Cook for his energy
and industry.

Tuesday Marshal Hyde received a
dispatch from SheriTDillon request
ing him to gather in party travel
ing under the name Of Bill Ellis, as
the individual was wanted pretty
bad at Cheney. Mr.. Hyde polished
his eye, and got down to work, de-
termIned to fasten ON to William if
he could be found in the city. About
: o'clock in the evening he struck
his man at the depot, where he was
making arrangements to take II pleas
urC excursion to some point to the
eastward. Marshal Hyde, in very
unrCrcmOniOus and impOlite man
ner, considering that he had never
been introduced to theparty, collared
Mr. Ellis and at the sametime in
formed him that parties at Cheney
50 deeply regretted his premature
departure from that classic precinct
that they most persistently insisted
on his return, peaceahly If he would,
forribly if it must be. Mr.. Ellis was
considerably annoyed by the liberty
the officer took. Indeed he was vir-
tually cXasperdted, and paved
around in a very undignitied man
ner. lie denied the name by which
he was addressed, but claimed to
have a bowing acquaintance with
Ellis, who, he said, wIs out on the
road. lie threatened to make it eX-
cecdingly sultry for the Marshal,
and was so rude as to use language
foreign to refined literature. The
Marshal was neither frightened by
his threats, ndr hoodwinked by his
representations, but kept good grip
on the captive and shot word to
sheriff Dillon over the wires. That
officer came up on the passenger
train, identified the prisonerand car
ricd him away. 1t turns out that
Ellis was guilty Of very indlscrcet
indisCretiOn, as he had the supreme
gall to enter the office Of the Sheriff
and purloin therefrom. a gun and
sundry other valuahles. The act Of
robbing any house is breach Of the
peace of exceeding criminal magni-
tudc, but to break into and rob the
business office of a myrindon Of the
law is carrying the trade too far. 1t
is very probable that Mr.. Ellis will
be put where he will haveno chance
to exercise his propensity for some
time, the only advantage that he de-
rives will be surety for lodgings
and board during what promises Ia
he a had season for sliirmishiDg,

We were a little tangled in our item last
week regarding the purchase Of James
Morris business by T.N. Brown. Mr.. Is.
did purchase the good will Of Mr.. NJ, but
as there was none Of the stock remaining
after the repeated auction sales there was
no "residue" for Brown to get hold Of.
Again. Instead Of moving into the store
room occupied by Morris Brown goes into
the room now occupied by NJ. II. White
house, the jeweler. As II now stands
both Mr.. Brown and Mr.. WhitChOuse VIII
engineer the building adjoining Wells,
Fargo Express office, the former with a
heavy stock Of stationery, ETC., the later
with plenty Of watches, jewelry, ETC.,
where may they live long and prosper.
Thursday morning opened sharp and
crisp, creating run on wood and making
heavy over coats indispensable articles Of
wearing apparel. A heavy fog shrOuded
the earth, and the slight moisture geneTat-
ed therefrom was converted into hoar
frost upon everything outdoors. lIhe
foliage Of the trees was turned to silver,
and the light grey rencling with back
ground Of dark green made the forest look
beautiful even in its ghos.ly weirdness.
Still the attRctiveness Of the exhibition
was not so great as to induce the pOpula-
ton to desert the stove and stand out in
the mist and comment upon the appear
ance Of things terrestrial. They would
rather take an occasional peep from Il
window, or take the word Of some friend
enthusiast in whom they had explicit con-
tidcrce.
We acknowledge the receipt Of about a
peck Of printed pamphlets containing the
speech Of Hon. ThOs. II. Brents on the
admission Of Washington Territory as a
State. This oratOrical demonstration took
place in the caIly front Of 1882, and there
is something like antiquity clmging about
the document as it is spread out, yellow
and dim, before us. We don't know as
we have ever done anything to Mr.. Brents
that he should come back at us IN this
style, and while our better nature whispers
"fOrgive him." the more wicked instincts
cry out for vengence. We cannot see the
object in thus incumbering Uncle Sans
mail with these speeches, and by so doing
making pOstmasteTs increase their debit
side on the ledger Of life by tripping out
naughty remarks. Perhaps the gentle
man had a ton or two ON hand and want
ed TO get rid Of them, or maybe he con-
sidcrcd the effort such grand flourish Of
rhetoric that the people were hungry for
another dose. The speech is an cNhaus-
tive and eNhausting one, we admit, but rs
it failed in its original purpose we really
think that the Representative would have
done favor by giving the public some
thing a little fresh.

PUBLIC SPIRIT.


Geo. T. Crane 4 Co. are not back
ward in coming forward when there
is something of a public nature to be
done, as their several responses in
the short time they have been with
us go to prove. The last project
they have engaged in is one that
meets the approval of the commun,
ity, and, especially the younger
members thereof who are now busy
harvesting knowledge in our public
schools. In the show window of the
store are two beautiful objects to
gladden. the eyes of both boys and
girls, The are too large to be classed
as toys, being articles of usefulness.
one Is fully equipped Garland
Range, a foot high, and some two
feet square. This tiny range is a
perfect model Of the large size, be-
ing finished in every detail. 1t has
Il complete outfit in the way of uten-
sils, and is rs beautiful a piece Of
workmanship as skilled workmen
could turn out. Friday the range
was fired up and was an object of
muchattention from passing pedes-
trians The other is a full chest of
carpenters tools, of a size and finish
that makes them valuable to the boy
that will enjoy tho honor of hand
ling them. The kit includes every
thug used by carpenters. Now it is
prop6sed by the firm topresent these
articles to the boy and girl in the
lower departments of the school who
can show the best record and aver
ages in department and study. This
will awaken Il friendly rivalry that
will be of great benefit both to the
school and scholar, and reward the
children for their efforts. The pro-
pOsal was made to the children
through communication to the
Principal, W.IW. johnson, and reads
as follows:

Nightwatchman Kohlhoff ran in
two merry damsels Of the forest
Wednesday evening, and good, in
teresting job he had of il. The
duslly rioters had the weakness OF
the race for the white mans gin, and
during the day made free use Of a
quantity that had been surreptitious-
ly furnished them. 1t has about the
same effect on the red man as it has
on the lighter colored race, only
more so, and as the rum got in its
work the girls became conspicuous
for their jaw performances. About
7 o'clock they became somewhat un-
guarded and a little too public in
their oral bOisterousness. KohlhofTs s
attention was attracted by the racket
and he proceeded to deposit the un-
ruly savages in the cooler. The fe-
males objected to having their fun
interrupted so early in the evening,
and hung back with avery persistent
and disagreeable hang. BY dint Of
dragging and pushing and urging,
the obstreperous couple were Gagged
in the presence of a large and inter
ested audience Of boys. The pris-
oners fred an endless volley Of Ian
guage at the officer from the grated
window, which may have Nglven
them extreme satisfaction, but had
very little effect on him seeing that
he is not overly well posted in the
Spokane dialect. A nights rest in
Jail had a wonderfully soothing effect
on the squaws, as they slid off quiet
ly in the morning, nursing their
wrath and a headache as big as u
mansgrd roof,

CT STER ClTY,

Til" pioneer town oftl!c Hills is sitnat-
ed in the southern portion about twelve
or fifteen miles from the foothills and
its natural advantages are acknowledged
by all as cxcclling oil others either in
the mining or agricultural districts.
Located in a valley ten or twelve miles
long ly one lliie in wil'', ii is easily
accessible IL railroads either from the
east, 50, 4 or west, and i he only town
ia tue I'LL, that could ic tapped by a
road running on an east and west line,
from either Pierre or Chamberlain. To
tap any other town, a road, having rs its
objective point the Yellowstone park or
tie Pacific coast, would nave 10 make a
dctour rom 100 to POO miles. Already
surveys have bccN III by various roads
lIayi ig this point in view. Thus si;uat-
cd II draws to it support 'hc business
of the aiming districts o. the Southern
Hills and $50 that of the farming and
stock raising interests, the latter ex-
tending for sixty miles to the south and
west. 1t is also the centre of the richest
mica district in the world. there being
within a radius Of three miles no less
than a half dozen producing mines the
annual yield of which is upward of
10000 pounds of m~erchantah!e mica to
the mine. On the north, and from two
to ten miles from town are the bonanza
gold mines of the Southern Hills includ-
ing the Grand Junction, Old Bill, Hart
ford. Atlantic, Salmon, st. Elmo, Penob.
scot, Gold Star and others, a majority of
which have mills, hosting works, etc,
now in operation. On the south for ten
or twelve miles are to be found rich cop
per and silver mines and on the west
the coal fields, gypsum beds, salt and oil
springs, while fertile farming lands are
sandwiched in between all. As an illu-
s~tration of the money to be made on
ever a small piece of farming land in
:he valleys surrounding Custer we will
acres, located two miles west of town,
cleared 81 800 in one summer. On the
south, within six or eight hours ride,
are the famous Hot Springs, whose cur
alive powers are already attracting the
attention of the outside world, and
which are equal to those Of Arkansas.
The town is the county seat of Custer
county, which hasan area Of 200 square
miles, two-thirds of which is agricultural
and grazing lands and the other third
mineral, the latter occupying the north
ern portion Of the county are covered
with n heavy growth of Norway pine,
The town has a $1,000 court house. two
fine church-buildings, BELONGING to the
Methodist and Congregational societies
and will soon have a large school build
ing. Business is increasing, improve
ments are being made daily and it il
bound to be the metropolis ofthe South
ern Hills. All those of our eastern
readers who think Of coming t o Dakots
to locate and invest in either mercantile
mining, agricultural or stock raisins
pursuits can do no better than to camy
in Custer county or city.
