The winter term of Black Hills COL
lege opened Tuesday under the most
ausp,cious circumstances. All the old
scholars are back in their places and
quite number of new ones. There
has been disposition to studious ness
on the part Of all during the last term
which has been most gratifying to the
president and faculty, and we believe
it will be augmented during the long
winter evenings of the coming term.
The STAR rejoices that such Is the case
and sincerely hopes that the precious
dollars spent by anxious parents for
the intellectual advancement OF their
children during these hard times may
be appreciated at their full worth and
every hour spent profitally by the
young men and women.
The STAR is in receipt of copy Of
a magazine, being one of the bulle.
tins of natural history from the state
university of Iowa in which there is a
very interesting article concerning the
late cycad find in the vicinity of Minne-
kahta, written by Prof. Mcbride, who
was here some time since. It is illus.
tfated with cuts and we will use it in
the columns of the STAR in the near
future.
Pat Ferguson is lying sick and
helpless without food or fire, in the old

h- said he would rather lay there and
die before he would taste the accursed
stuff again.

School Funds Received.

County treasurer Bradley informs
us that he has just received warrant
for $ll30 from the state auditor, being
the apportionment of state school
money due this county for this year.
OF this amount, Supt. Brooke informs
us that Hot Springs lnpepenrent

$3.50. This helps out quite a little.
The time is coming in the history Of
the state when our public schools can
almost be run on the money received
from the state fund, on the sale and

would run is meeting with popular

Estimates have already been made
Of the cost of building and equipping
the road, and the figures are placed at
$27, 600, 900. It is also estimated that
s cents an acre on the lands in the ten
great producing States that would be
tributary and directly benefited by
this road would build and equip the
road and leave q surplus of $4,000, 900.
The road can be built without bor-
rowing dollar or issuing bond, and
intirely independent of Eastern capt.
tai.
Then think of few of the benefits
that would follow: First and fore
most it would belong to the people Of
the States that contributed to its con-
structiGn, and it would be a source OF
revenue to those States The single
track would soon be followed by a
parallel double track. It would con-
meet the vast productive region lying
between our northern borders and the
gulf with deep water navigation on
the Texas coast. East and West lines
would be glad Of the opportunity to
become feeders of this great line, and

build their own lateral lines as feeders.
