bus Prison.

1t is an undeniable- fact that the two
territories are rapidly growing law
abiding. This is not only due to the
steady march Of civilization but also
TO the Jealous work of the officers of
the law. In this territory, all phases
of crimes are On the decline, owing to
the vigilance and sincere work of Uni
ted States Marshal Nix and his corps
of deputies. Some of the most cour-
ageous men that ever strapped cart
ridge belt about their loins or drew "A
six shooter are on his force. These
deputies and their possemen are con
tinually on the go and they rarely
miss the game they go after One of
the most common crimes the officers
have to deal with are the lawless char
acters who persist in introducing and
selling ardent spirits in the Indian
countries. From one to fifteen men
are arrested every day by the deputies,
but thanks to the Nix's keen-eyed
minions this hitherto stereotyped
charge is growing rare. Inc dep-
uties have the whisky y-shovers, as we'll
as other classes of lawbreakers, on
the run. Much praise is due to Mr..
Nix and his men.
A. NJ. Burch has returned from Co
lumbus, Ohio, where he landed four
prisoners in the pen. lie says there are
now $40 convicts in that noted bas-
tile. A strange coincidence of his trip
was the meeting n Cincinnati OF two
prisoners bearing the name of Thomas,
one Of them from Ardmore and the
other from Muskogee, in the Indian
Territory. They had not met for iif-
teen years and seemed proud to see each
other in chains. They entered prison
the same day and for equal terms, but
were sent up for different crimes.

The North Galveston Improvement
Association Goes to the Wall.
GALVESTON, Tex, July II. The
North Galveston Land and Improvement
association went into the hands of a re-
ceiver. The liabilities are estimated at
$500, 900 Of which 100000 is due con-
tractors and various other parties in the
city. The assets are lands, townsites
and improvements at North Galveston,
which has population of about 800,
and several factories. No estimate is
placed on it's value. The court ap.
pointed Mr.. R. A. Reese as receiver,
and his bond was fixed at $50, 900. The
most distressing feature of the assign
ment is the impoverished condition of
the employees. They have had no wages
for several months and are in absolute
want. They and others came to North
Galveston under the most hattering
inducements. It is believed the first
effort of the receiver will be to provide
means for their relief 1t is thought
that with proper management and
let up in the stringency OF the money
market the company will be able to
settle its Indebtedness in full.

ne
ga1ly Loan School Funds.
PIERRE, S. D.. July 12.-Some very
crooked work has just been brought to
light in connection with the loaning of
the permanent school fund of the state.
The county commissioners in several Of
the counties of the state have illegally
loaned the school funds to owners of
farm lands. In one of these counties
the commissioners have
Utterly Disregarded the Law,
and out Of So loans made upon farm
lands only two of them are made as
provided by statute. The constitution
provides that ''counties shall invest
said money in bonds Of school corpora
tons, or i'll first mortgage upon good
improved farm lands within their
limits respectively; but no farm loan
shall exceed $500 to any one person, nor
shall it exceed one-half the value of the
land as assessed for taxation, and the
rate of interest shall not be less than 6
per cent?
The county where the most crooked
work has baen going on has violated the
law by loaning more than $500 to one
person and by loaning more money upon
the land than it was assessed for. In
one instance they loaned $4,000 to one
man upon tract of land assessed at
1888; 1,5O0 to another man on land as
sessed at $S40. and $4,000 on land as
sessed ae $1,000. Out of $31. 900 loaned
by this county % of the loans were
made in sums above $500 and the
amounts run all the way up to So, 500.

CAIRO, Ills, July IL. News has been
received here that colored man has

found to have been an accomplice of
Miller, who was lynched at Bardwell,

been notified, and if he proves to be the
man it is claimed another lynching is

when finally overpowered admitted that
he murdered the girls and that Miller
