On Friday night last Mr.. Robert
Cr,lickshank died at his ranch on Alkali,
after short illness, aged 76 years. His
funeral occurred at the Presbyterian
church in this city on Sunday afternoon.
The remains were inferred in the Protes-
tant cemetery.
The Francis block is looming up. The
second story is partially up, the brick
work is being done as rapidly as the
weather will permit. Owing to the re-
cent storm work has been delayed con-
siderably, but as soon as possible the
building will be pushed to completion.
j. d. Hartman viii give dance at his
residence, tomorrow evening, seven miles
down the valley. He has arranged for a
big crowd, and will entertain his guests
in royal manner. A large number will
go down frem Sturgis If the weather is
favorable. All who attend will have a
good time.
Reports made by tourists from the
front, say that any quantity of brant,
geese and ducks can be bagged on the
Belle Fourche at present. There are
plenty'of sportmen in this city who
would enjoy few days hunt along that
river and who would be able to furnish
the town with waterfowl.
Morris Heffner, or Hefferman, a man
engaged in chopping wood on Ft Meade
wood reservation, on Wednesday, was
instantly killed by a tree falling on him.
The coroner was notified but as every
thing proved the killing to be unavoid-
able no inquest was called. The remains
were shipped to his late home in Nebras-
ka Saturday.
The Touring mill at Buffalo Gap is
running to its full capacity night and
day. Sturgis would be glad to have an
industry of the same kind started here,
either by some enterprising citizen or
wide-awake outsider. If anyone will
come here desiring to erect fonring
mill they will meet with encouragements
that will surprise them.

There is one man at least in the coun-
try who wants to see Sturgis badly.
Private Phillip Spanner, troop B, third
cavalry, stationed at San Antonio, has
been transferred to the seventh cavalry
at Ft. Meade. ALI expense attending the
transfer, including transportation, is to
be paid out of his own pocket. He evi-
IDENTIFY wants to get here.
Mr.. B. B. Harris seems to be the only
candidate for the Office of city marshal
who has come to the front and announced
the fact. Mr.. Harris is man well quail
ified for the position, and would make a
good officer. He is well known, thor
oughly reliable and man of requisite
ability. Sturgis could go great deal
farther and fare much worse in her selec-
tion of guardian of the peace.
On account of the high license neces-
sary to be paid, Clay Lambert, the man
ager OF the Black Hills theatrical circuit,
will not bring his troupes to this city to
give entertainments. ALI the rest of the
Hills towns are to be favored, but Stur-
gis is to be left out in the cold. We dc
not know the license fees of other neigh
boring towns, but from appearances they
must be lower than Sturgis'. To man
up tree it looks as though we were cut
lting off our nose to spite our face.
