A Receiver for the First National.

The STAR man called upon Bank Ex-
aminer Diamond Wednesday at the
First National to ascertain the outlook
for resumption. Mr.. Diamond regret
ted very much to be compelled to an
nounce that owing to the continued
stringency in the money market it had
become absolutely impossible for the
First National to resume, and he had
therefore been forced to ask for the an
pointment of receiver. This IN
serious news for our people, and;
Will. it will probably not affect the

Black Hills College Trustees Meet.


The board of trustees of Black Hills
college held an adjourned session yes-
Tuesday. The financial interests were
under consideration with view to the
reduction of expenses. President
Hancher offered his resignation and
recommended that one other member
Of the faculty. be relieved. The board
could not see the propriety of reduction
by this method and no changes were
made in the faculty. Plans were
adopted looking to the funding Of the
entire debt at low rate of interest
and the securing of sufficient real es-
tate to create a sinking fund to meet
the funded debt at maturity. The
next term will open Sept. IL.

HIGH TOWERS.
London to Have One Which viii Over
top the Paris Giant.

top the Paris Giant.
Sir Edward w. Watl1in, railroad
president and promoter of England,
has found that the financial features
of the Eitfel tower-that is the
amount of income derived therefrom--
justi6es the construction of similar
edifice in London, and has made the
contracts for a steel tower to be erect
ed in one of the parks of London, this
to have height, including the base,
of over 1900 feet. The tower part
proper will be over $50 feet higher
than the Eitfel tower, and the con-
struction will vary in number of re-
spects from that notable structure.
AS an income-earning investment the
Eitfel tower has proved wonderful
success. Every stranger who has dur
ing the last two years visited Par.s has
considered his stay incomplete if he
has not assembled to the Top of ti,at
monument, and the view afforded from.
that elevation has certainly justified
the trouble and expense. There is lit
tie doubt, in spite of the more cloudy
and fcggy atmosphere of London. that
high tower there will command Il
large patronage, and it is not i1nprob-
able that the structure of a similar
kind in several of our great Anne lean
cities would pay largely on the cost of
building them.

Liberia,

A report from the minister resident
and consul general to Liberia, recently
received, speaks very highly of the
prospects of the negroes who have en-
igrated thither from the United States.
A liberal piece of land is allotted to
each immigrant, and they are cared for
by the colonization society for
six months, by which time it
is expected that they will have
raised enough to be self-sup-
porting. A few of the negroes finding
that they could not get rich at once,
and were expected to work for their
living, were disappointed, and returned
to the United States. The rest are sat-
isfed, and have turned their attention
to planting coffee, which, in a few
years. will yield them fine income.
One man who went out a few months
ago now has good house built and
5000 young coffee trees.
