Black Hills Va. North Carol,na.

A long article upon this subject from
the pen of DIR. Ledoux can be found in
the last issue of the Engineering and
Mining Journal, in which he shows that
tin occurs in North Carolina under
precisely the same conditions which
prevail in Dakota, and draws the con-
clusion that one per cent tin will paw.
etc., to none of which have We any OBJ
jections, but to the Doctors weather we
rise to object-"In the Black Hills they
have nine months winter, and three
months pretty cold weather." Is libel

Syndicate smelter and Deadwood reduc-
ton works are building at the present
time, and while it is now December 2lst
or almost mid-winter, not one day has
been lost by the workmen from bad
weather. Scores of men are at work up
on the big Minnesota ditch. grading
with as much ease as though it were mid
summer. If as. the Doctor says, winter
is practically over in North Carolina in
February" we Offset it with the state

Black Hills. summer has not yet ended.
Why, Doctor. you just ought to see the
Black Hills climate. tits the original

wasn't a patching to it. The fountain
of youth that Ponce de Leon sought is
now known to have been Fred Evans

Black Hills. You ought to just see old
Fred. He is seven feet high and weighs
400 pounds, and when he came to this
country he was just little fellow and
only weighed sc pounds. The Springs
and climate did It all. Why, Doctor, we
haven't taken down the fy-screens from
the Office windows yet, and the streets
are still dusty. Just compare that with
your North Carolina mud--in which

THE reply of the Secretary of War to
the message of the Mayor of New
Orleans officially notifying him of the
death of Jefferson Davis, "ex-secretary
of war;" was certainly a model of
brevity, courtesy and sense. 1t was as
follows:
Your telegram informing me of the
death Of Mr.. Davis is received. In
refraining from any official action
thereon | would not and hope ] do not
add to the great sorrow Of his family
and many friends, 1t seems to me the
right course and the best one for sll.

should fill the hearts of our people.

OBITUARY.

DIED: At her home In lola at 1913
a. m. December 10, 1889, Mrs. M. H.,
wife of Mr. c. w. McNiel. In the 56th
year of her age.
Mrs. McNiel was born in Hamilton
county, Ohio, Feb. 20. 1884. She was
married there and continued to live in
that State with her husband for a
number of years. The family after
wards lived for three years in Spring.
field. ILL.,, and then removed to La
mont, Mo-, where they lived until 1879
when tney came to Kansas. They
first located on farm, but in 1881 re.
moved to lola where they have since
resided. The deceased had always en-
joyed good health until about four
years ago when she was attacked by
the dread disease, cancer. The devel-
opment of the malady was Glow but
terribly certain aud after infiicting I'M
told sufferings, endured with Christian
fortitude, it did Its fatal work.
Mrs. McNiel was woman possess
ing many rare qualities of mind and
heart. With a naturally refined dis
position, to which were added the
graces of culture and education, she
attracted all with whom she came in
contact and won many warm friend
ships. She was a devout Christian
and SO long as her health permitted
was an active worker in the Presby-
terrain church of which she was a
member. In her home circle she was
a model of wifely and motherly ten
derness and devotion, and the home
which has 80 long known the benson
of her gracious presence, is now left
desolate indeed.
The funeral services were held at the
residence at 2.3O on Wednesday after
noon, Rev. w. II. Hyatt, assisted by
Rev. DR.. Drake, of Humboldt aud
Rev. J. B. Ford, officiating. The Sc
lect Knights, of which order Mr.. Nc
Mel is a member attended in body
AMI in uniform to testify their sym
pathy, and the house and grounds
were filled with friends and acquaint-
ances who came to pay the last trib-
utes to one whom all 80 highly es-
teemed. The services were about an
hour in length and were very touch
ing AMI impressive. At their close
the remains were borne to the GENE.
terry and tend erly laid away to their
final rest.

THE lola REGISTER.
- SUBSCRIPTION RATES:
A SOLID DELEGATION.

Smith d. Fry in K. C. Globe :
"There is solid delegation" said a
Kansas man pointing to Turner, Fun
ston, Anderson and Perkins, as those
gentlemen stood in corner Of the
house near the republican cloak room.
'sThere is a solid delegation from sol
i'd state. Kansas sends her good men
to congress and does not change them
every two years. The result is that
we have the best working delegation
on the floor" He said truly, too.
There is no delegation from any state
which is so potent as the Kansas del
egatiop for the benefit of their state.
They stand together upon all matters
and never weaken under any circum.
stances. The great delegations from
New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio
are composed of men with diversified
interests and they do not pull together
upon any one topic. The Kansas men
help each other, knowing that in uni
ty there is strength. Moreover, they
are all old members and thoroughly
familiar with the ins and outs of con.
gressional action, both upon the floor
and in committees. The only change
in the Kansas delegation was made
when Congressman Ryan resigned his
seat in order to accept the position of
mipister to Mexico. General Kelly
was elected to succeed Mr.. Ryan, but
he is wise enough to follow the lead Of
his older colleagues and pull with them
in all things.

TEACHERS ATTENTION.

A beautiful and valuable flag is be-
ing offered by the Kansas State Teach
er's Association to the county having
the largest per cent of its teachers
enrolled as members of the association
by 4 p. M, of the last day of the ses-
sion beginning Wednesday December
25th. We can secure this beautiful
prize if we will work for 1t. The in
SEPARATION which we would draw from
it by having 1t floating over us at our
Institute and at our county teachers
meetings, will surely repay US for the
effort.
1t is true that teachers should "be-
ware of spending their substance in
riotour living" but money spent in
attending such a meeting as this
one, should be looked upon as an in
vestment from which we will reap
an abundant harvest, rather than as
having been spent for the mere pleas
ure derived from spending money dur.
ing Christmas time. Every effor. is
being made to reduce expenses to the
lowest possible limit. All railroads in
the State have granted half rates
which makes the round trip cost So II
from lola. A membership fee of one
dollar is charged all new members, to
all old members the annual dues are
fifty cents. In the matter of board the
expense will depend upon how many
frieEds you have in Topeka that you
wish to visit. The hotel rates will be
from 81 to s. per day, and we will be
in the city but two days.
Enrolment blanks are now in my
Office, and all who desire to do so may
enroll at any time and if you should
then not be able to attend the meeting
your enrolment will count in securing
the flag just the same.
In order that all of our teachers may
be accommodated 1 desire that all
who intend going should notify me of
the fact at the earliest possible date,
snd l will attend to securing you
necessary accommodations. This will
leave you at liberty to enjoy yourselves
to the fullest possible extent, and
nothing to worry over.
Let us all join the crowd and capture
that flag.
Yours very truly,
ED. BARBER, Co. Supr. !

AS WAS to have been expected, the
death of Jefferson Davis has called
forth exlravagant demonstrations of
mourning in all parts of the South.
Flags have been placed at half mast.
public buildings and private dwellings
have been draped in mourning, eulc-
CYSTIC resolutions have been adopted
by every town council and State Leg
islature and by numberless lodges and
associations and assemblages. The
obsequies were held in New Orleans on
Wednesday and were rendered very
impressive by the attendance of large
bodies of troops, by the firing of min
ute guns and the tolling of bells. On
the same day and at the same hour
memorial services were held in nearly
every city and town in the entire
South, business being practically sus-
