He looks for a good business this year
as already there is much inquiry for
rock from his quarry and several orders
have been taken.
u A stone yard company has been or.
gained at the Odell quarries. This
company will cut stone all ready to be
placed in buildings. BY this means
business will be materially in.
creased as stone already prepared can
be shipped direct to the builder.
The cold weather for the last few
dayshas practically suspended all work
on buildings at Hot Springs. How.
ever we have probably had our cold
snap and the weather will undoubtedly

The North Dakota legislature IN a
brilliant economical spasm resolved to
begin work at seven o'clock in the
morning. and now the sargeant-at-arms
is obliged to pull members out of bed
to get a quorum. The poor legislators
eat crackers and cheese for breakfast,
dividing attention between crackers
and legislation. Verify the way of a
legislator in North Dakota is not strcwn
with roses.
A papor that calls itself a newspaper
of away up grade, published, we are
sorry to say, not thousand miles from
here, in its issue of last week copied
verbatim an article from the Times of
Deadwood without giving proper credit
The Times is comp!imcnted by this ac
ton but the editor of the purloining
sheet is certainly devoid of that Journal.

The STAR believes in the boys having
lots of fun, be that fun innocent fun
such as coasting, Some of IL bows
are using for coasting purposes the
road Leading to College Flat. This road
is used almost exclusively by teams
going up the hill and is in constant use
for this reason the STAR believes that
coasting should he interdicted on this
road because of the danger both TIC
coasters and teamstcrs. The road is SO
winding that it is impossible to see the
bottom from the top and should a coast.

team while rounding a curve the
chances are that either the team or the

down into the gulch.
The Newcastle Alert has the follow
ing sensible words in its issue of the

BY this way, a hundred houses could be

mer, and men at the mines would keep
their families and make their homes
here where their children could ga to
school, and by this means be enabled to
build a home. Good scheme.
The advice given to the citizens of
Newcastle will be of equal value to
Hot Springs. A building and loan as
ISOLATION would do more toward build
ing houses in Hot Springs than any 9TH
err me agency. There is many a man
IN Hot Springs now paying rent that
with a building and loan association
could and would build a house for HIM
self. The STAR will take twenty shares
as soon as one is started.
