If such is the aim and such the value of
our system of liberal culture, we must recog-
nize all this as belonging to the academy-to
this academy and this bulding-for the
academy, founded by private benefcence,
under definite religious control, is essential
in the system. In New England for at least
thousand years to come no state system Of
university or preparatory school can dis
place our voluntary system, or even il 1t
could, it would be a disaster. For only the
smallest fraction of our youth can the pub
lie high school give its training And even
when 1t does its best, it lacks and must lack
the elements that give the most potent charm
and the greatest value to the culture of the
ideal academy. 1t must forever lack the
atmosphere of moral, religious and home
life.
And so, with praise and prayer, we dedi-
cate to its high Christian mission this goodly
structure. We do it in the name Of her,
here present to-day, who has erected it in
loyal love to Christ and to her husband,
gone before her to the skies. 1t fitly bears
his name and hers. This, her gift of faith,
the Master will receive and bless. May it
incite others to like good deeds and may the
blessing Of Almighty God ever rest alike
upon her and upon this beloved academy.

The intention is announced, with a
show of authenticity, of the Fremont.
Elkhorn 4 Missouri Valley railroad to
construct a spur from its station at
this point to the extensive marble
quarries three or four miles up Beaver
creek, writes the Black Hills cor
respondent of the Omaha Herald from
Buffalo Gap. This enterprise was an
ticipated from the time when, last fall
certain high officials of the North
western railroad became interested in
the ownership Of some of these de-
posits. and their setting experienced
men at work opening up the quarries.
The report is given color Of a speedy
realization by engineers running the
preliminary survey for the branch.
Moreover, the proposed stone road lies
through the gap in the hills through
which must pass the most feasible ex-
tension of the road to Hot Springs
in the upbuilding of which as a water
ing place and sanitarium the road has
always manifested a lively and ma
terial interest. The branch to that
point would be about IA miles long.
Its construction may be accelerated by
the movements of the Burlington &
Missouri road, which has for months
been running lines into the core of
the Hills through Hot Springs and to
Custer, thirty miles farther north.
The gap above referred to, is the best
line also to Custer from the east, as
the Red canyon. through which the
Burlington 4 Missouri has approached
is the best from the south. The North
western people would thus by this con-
struction secure, besides access to the
marble, several stragetic and pri-
GRITTY advantages, and would penetrate
the TIN districts of Pennington and
Custer counties ahead of all COM
petitors. This road has also the choice
of routes into the tin districts via Rapid
City where its line already is, up
Rapid creek and OYER the divide into
Spring creek and thence to Custer, by
the survey of the Rapid City & South
western narrow gauge; or a parallel
thereto, if the Harvey peak Tin
company pcrseveres in its plans of
builaing the narrow gauge. But this
route from Rapid City would only en-
dulc Cuc W COITclk Tilt

eve from Hot Springs and its marble
and moreover, would leave the south.
ern gap open to the Burlington 4
!. Missouri. So it is regarded as certain
that the road will be extended hence
into the Hills in the near future
possibly this summer :and hat the first
few miles Of it will be at once con
structed to afford shipping facilities fol
the marble. This spur will also pas
through large deposits Of the fines
sandstone-plain, variegated and SOLE
colors-to be found anywhere. A
one time the road verbally promised
to bnild a switch three miles to certain
sandstone deposits farther east on Elm
Creek; by this latter plan it will l,av'
access to s;enough ofboth sandstone an,
marble.

%pEPENpENI PENSION BILL,

The dependent pension bill was
under discussion in the senate on the
2Sth Of February when Mr.. Blackburn
of Kentucky made the following re-
mark in opposition to the hill:
Blackburn deprecated violation of
rules in continuing to talk on the pre-
sumed action Of the executive on the
pending measures. He did not know
what authority they had for their
statements, but he did know there
was political organization in the
country to-day which was in perfect
marching order with all things ready.
1t was the Grand Army of the Rep
ublic. The senator from Nebraska,
who so ably championed the bill, had.
told the senate and the country the bill
was demand made by the G. A. H.. and
had protested against any material
amendment, because that organization
had formulated, not a petition to the
American congress, but a demand on
the American congress for legislation in
which itself was to be beneficiary. If
the senator from Nebraska was TO be
accepted as authority, the bill was a
demand sent to congress by a great.
we'll organized and perfectly system
lied political agency, that proposed to
remove the trouble which environed
both houses: do away with the revenue
bills and tariff revisions, and additions
of internal taxation, and to dispose OF
the treasury surplus by such bills as
this. And that was to be the only
practical solution to be offered by the
republican party for the financial
difficulties in which 1.-THE country was
involved.
Henderson suggested that perhap.
the time had been reached when the
Grand Array should apologize, not only
for exercising the right of petition
but for helping to maintain a legis
lative body which it could not appea
to for the redress Of its wrongs.
ln1S79 Blackburn in a speech mad
the following statement: 1--WE do no
intend to stop until we have stricken
the last vestige Of your war measure
from the statute book" In these re
marks he referred more particular,
to,the 18th 14th and 18th amendment
all the pension of Union soldiers.

The only persons who followed the

mercial Gazette.
If this was the defective" we think
it was, there are those living in Jack
son who will see streak of retribu-
tion looming up through the sadness
surrounding his death. Our people
will remember the burning Of the
Jackson depot some years ago, and a
number Of other and smaller fires that
alarmed the people. A Cincinnati
detective was called for, and Carey
was sent to work up the case He
came to Jackson, held a consultation
with the authorities, and as result
of that consultation fastened suspician
upon Charles Andres and Henry Mar
tin, two Jackson boys. Carey claimed
that he could not associate with such
men, and sent ''spotter," a miserable
drunken vagabond named Harris, to
work up the case This fellow worked
every dodge to persuade the boys to
commit burglary, or some other
Penitentiary offense, so that he might
make case against them, but the
boys understood him. He tried his
hand on Leroy Reed, and was knocked
down for his pains.
The other two boys ran about with
him for some days, however, and he
finally had them arrested for robbing
him! Andres was tried for burning
the depot, and acquitted. Both were
tried for robbing Carey's "spotter,"
and convicted. Martin was sentenced
for the robbery, and Andres for the
robbery and burning the depot, al
though the Court could not Of course
tell why the extra sentence was put
upon Andres. Judge Trip, as At
torney for the boys, made gallant
fight, but there was one important
point that neither the attorneys nor
the friends got hold of until after the
trial and sentence: W. F. Owens,
Marshal of Jackson, furnished Harris
all the money needed in working up the
case, taking receipt for every cent.
Owens was witness at the trial, and
had in his pocket, receipts that showed
that Harris did not have as much |
as he claimed to have been
robbed of. Yet the boys were sent
up for an alleged crime which at the
worst they were tempted or tricked |
into committing. Carey's man caused |
more drunkenness and crime while
here than existed in the same length
of time before he came. So, after all.
his man who could not associate with
thinking men, got down so low that
here was scarcely a human being
with sufficiently strong tie of friend
ship or sympathy to follow him to
;he grave.

About People (!

John S. McGhee, Of Wellston, re-
Gently purchased some land in West
Virginia, and tells a good joke con-
nected Herewith. On one corner Of
his land, the former owner had per-
mitted little plot Of ground to be
laid off for School House site, and
the Directors have erected building
thereon, the former agreeing to make
them deed for the spot. The mat
ter was neglected, and the whole of
the farm-or rather land-deeded to
Mr.. McGhee. After the transaction
was closed the latter gentleman start
led the Virginian by informing him
that he (McGhee) now owned the
School House, Uncle John says there
must be nothing but straight Repub-
lican doctrine taught in that School

Der Tom Easterling, and especially the
boys of the 91st o. V. |. He was the
boss forager Of Crooks army Tom
didn't do much but light and forage.
He didn't have to stand picket or clean
up camp. He was always out living
off the enemy. or gathering in dam
ties for the officers. He knew where
the incest hams were, where the hens
laid the freshest eggs, where the young
porkers were just getting ripe. He
knew all these things and everybody
knew Tom. He called on all the fam
lilies within a dozen miles Of the camp
He lived ON the fat of the land. When
on a march and everybody was
skimped on pork and crackers, Tom
lived on ham and fried chicken. Of
ten have we seen him coming across
the fields to the marching column,
carrying with him goose, or chick
en-, or a sack of something. It was
then that Tom was welcome visitor
at the Generals or Colonel's tent
But he was also solid with the boys.
He told them where they could get
more of the same sort, and often di-
vided nice little chunks Of happiness
with them. But, poor Tom! Those
pleasant days of foraging are long
past, and life, too, with him, and
sad ending it was. A few days ago,
while working in a coal bank near
Jackson, a great piece of slate fell
from the roof Of the mine and crushed
him, causing almost instant death.

"PooR OLD JOE"

WV OA@A~
Coroner Rendigs yesterday held an
inquest in the case of ex-Detective
Joe Carey, whose demise, under sensa-
tional circumstances a few mornings
ago, has already been detailed, and
concluded that death had resulted
from an affection of the heart.
Yesterday afternoon the dead ex-of-
ficer and sporting man was laid to rest
in the Spring Grove Cemetery. The
funeral took place from John F.
Wiltsee's undertaking establishment
on Sixth street, near John, to which
place the remains were removed after
the deceased's death in the George
street house heretofore alluded to.
The obsequies were impressively in
formal. The room over the Office of
Wiltsee's establishment was trans
formed into chapel, and there the
bier on which the mortal remains of
s'Poor Old Joe" were laid was erected.
Probably twenty-five people, friends
and relatives Of the deceased, were
seated about the coffin which incased
the dead, when minister from Lud-
low, KY, who was an acquaintance of
the deceased and friend of his be-
reaved family, began what proved
brief but fitting service over the dead.
The service ended, the coffin was tax
en- charge of by Wiltsee's men, who
carried It to the hearse, which, with
q single carriage, stood in front of the
place and composed the funeral train
which subsequently bore the remains
to their last resting place in that
