Popular Citizen Passes Away.

DR.. A. Lamme, passed peacefully away,
surrounded by his wife and three of his
children. on Saturday morning at half
past nine O'Clock. The doctor has been
feeble for several years and during the
last two has been confined to the house,
except on rare occasions, when he VEN
tured to the front yard. And while his
death was not unexpected, it was receiv-
ed by our citizens with expressions of
unusual sadness and sorrow. The doctor
for many years has been the most prom
inent citizens of this portion of the coun-
try. For many years he has been at the
head of the largest mercantile business
in this valley and was known to every
man, woman and child in it. He leaves
a wife, one son, Ed. Lamme, of Raleigh,
Lamme & Co., and four daughters, Mrs.
VIM. Meadow, and Mrs. F, X Armstrong,
of Bozeman, and two younger daughters
attending school at Philadelphia.
The doctor was borp in Virginia and
in his younger days practiced medicine.
He resided for several years at st. Joseph,
Mo-, and following steam boating. He
cine to Montana in 1865, Since that
time lie followed agricultural, steam
boating and mercantile pursuits.
The doctor was one of those rare old,
Southern gentlemen, not often met with
in these days I, He was the soul of g,n-
iality. charitable and kind, as hundreds
Il his valley will attest. He was every
pody's friend and there are,few men who
was more respected and popular, than
the genial doctor. The CHRONICLE, to-
gether with hundreds of citizens offer its
heartfelt sympathies to the sorrying wife
and near relatives.

The Atlanta University Is unquestionably
one OF the best colored schools OF the south.
The board of visitors appointed by the
governor OF the state have made reports
upon this school from 1861 to 1887, In.

highest terms of the management OF the
university. From these reports In various

We hcg leave to report that tla exlmina.

one of the chief customers OF the tob lcco

The imports of American tobacco In o

and the duty collected on this tobacco was
about $455OO, 900, an average rate of $40
