The Sturgis Academy,

A new important educational work is
to be inaugurated at Sturgis in the
Black Hills. A new school will be
opened there by five sisters of the Or
der of ST Benedict. These ladies' arri-
we'd from Switzerland about year ago,
and at the convent of their order in
Yankton have been making the final
preparations for this work. The insti-
tute to which they belong is the Con
vent of the Perpetual Alteration, erected
in the home of the now beautiful Nicho-
las de Flue, the pacifcator of Switzer-
land in the 18th century. Their new
work will begin at the parochial school
OF st. Aloysius' church in Sturgis, and a
new school building having been erected
by the school. board there, the use of the
old structure has been generously tend
cred TO the sisters. The new school ere
long will develop into an academy for
higher branches OF education. The
home institute has placed some $2,0 900 at
the disposal Of the sisters for this pur-
pose, and the citizens of Sturgis have
donated thirty three town lots and
enough fine white stone for the new
academy and convent buildings, which
will be built during the coming summer.
As several languages will be taught in
the school, it will be great advantage
to the Catholics of German and other
Municipalities who have settled in and
near Sturgis. Dakota Catholic.
The sisters are already at work and
are meeting with good success. Work
on the new stone structure will COM
mence shortly, material already being
hauled upon the ground.

at Columbus that the Schenck men had a

come out Of the war crippled for life. All
went merry as marriage bell until the
Hon. John appeared on the field, accom-.
panied by his confidential and confidence
man Rush Sloan, and our majority melted
away. Rush told me long afterwards that
Sherman's little campaign cost thirty
thousand dollars, and that thirty thousand
was paid by Jay Cooke X Co. in the three
DAYS preceding the caucus. Gen. Schenck
holds 10 this day proof OF how the corrup

A NEW TRICK AT FARO.

A shrewd Device for swindIing the Tn
wary Gambler.
st. Louis Post Dispatch: The latest and
by far the shrewdest device for swindling
in faro has not yet been printed. IL is a
notable fact that most all these devices, or
at least the most successful and least liable
TO detection, are constructed on simple
principles. The trick referred 10 is known
as the needle or the "snake tell" The
dealer being mere machine in the opera.
tion of the scheme helps II greatly. This
trick enables the man who is playing for
thrown out two turns ahead, OF, in other
words, enable him, so 10 speak, TO
look down through the cards and
know the denomination OF the fifth
card from the top. The whole trick is In
the box and the cards. Three cards, say
the ace, deuce and tray, from each suit,
making twelve In all, are trimmed down on
one edge with pair Of card shears. These
cards will be just the least bit narrower
than their fellows Pressing against the
edge of the fifth card from the top ON the
side next the dealer In a small spring.
Opposite, at one corner of the box, Is a
small needle about 0ne-sixteenth of an
inch long. When one of the trimmed
cards comes fifth from the top the
spring Is released, presses against the
edge of the card, and the needle
opposite Is thrown out of minute hole In
| the box for the space Of about half a sec
ond In time. The dealer may not see IL,
nor does he care 10, for IL is the man in the
crowd who does the work. Now the top
card Is always a winner. Thus, the fifth
card must be winner also. The man In the
crowd knows as soon as he sees the
needle that one OF three cards Is the fifth
| coming and he bets accordingly. These
| bets are not made with the book, for the
| limit Is generally too small but with the
| convenient sucker" IL an outsider were
| TO catch the idea he could makelit decidedly
| unpleasant for the bank. But In case the
| outsider should haply be on the right card
| he is permitted 20 bet with the bank. Thus
he can lose any amount II he can bet on the
wrong card, and can win the limit only II
he Ia on the right.
| About two years ago, In Chicago, a
walter In one Of the principal restaurants
won over $4,000 playing against brace
faro. lie knew all their tricks and beat
the gamblers at their own game. The
gamblers got frightened, but Of course
they could not refuse to play him. kinal-
ly the gamblers grew desperate and went
to firm in san Francisco. They wanted,
they said, faro box which would enable
them % know the cards before they turned
up. The firm, which Is one of the biggest
manufacturers of gambling devices in the
country, showed them the needle-b0x, de
scribed above. They took II back with
them 20 Chicago, and in two months the
gay young walter was once more working
