"reminiscences.

Hays Republican.
A small portion of the business part
of Hays was saved. All the heroic
landmarks were swept away. Not
one remains to longer tell the tales of
rude heroism, grotesque justice or
barbaric debauchery. With mingled
feelings of regret, the old timers saw
these buildings Of past chapter de-
stroyed. AS he looks over the ruins
of these old business houses on the
north side of the track, ghosts of the
past seem to pass by in fantastic pro-
cessiOn. He sees once more Tommy
Drums saloon and JOyce'S court,
where, seated before the bar of JUS
tice, and behind the bar of brilliant
spirits, the judge gave his decisions
to satisfy the inward and outer man.
He hears once more the shots from a
Colts A favorite gun, and knows that
Hays numbers one less and boot hill
one more citizen. He sees in his
walking dream, Wild Bill walking up
the street, his wide sombrero cover
ing a determined but kindly face, and
to his mind handsOmer form never
graced the streets of Hays. He will
tell you Wild Bill was the most dar-
ing scout, the brayest marshal, and
the biggest hearted man the west
ever had. Buffalo Bill, California
Bill, and the poet scout, Captain
Crawford, will be in this procession;
for Hays was in the past a rendezvous
of all the famous plainsman. He will
see great wagons loaded from these
same stores with provisions bound for
Colorado and Arizona. He will tell
you these were the days of big money,
brave deeds and good times.
We suggest that new Hays buy the
land on which these old buildings
stood and make a park. 1t is fitting
spot for a pretty park, and would
beautify the business portion of our
town, which has been sadly in need
of beauty spot for many years.

Teachers Meeting.

At the teachers meeting of last
Saturday the attendance was limited
owing to a combination of circum-
stances. Most schools being out many
teachers are engaged at other work
that prevents them from taking part.
Miss Carrie Sweet read paper on
.SOme of the Books Read During the
Winter" giving many valuable and
interesting quotations.
Mrs. Greenwood reviewed current
events for the six weeks past in very
full and satisfactory manner, touch
ing foreign and diplomatic matters;
told us of some of the last acts of the
LII congress, not forgetting to add
that it's one act that gave universal
satisfaction was that at II m. on
March 4th, viz: adjournment. She
thanked the state legislature for the
numerous good bills passed and many
poor or bad ones that failed to pass.
A. S. Peacock spoke of the school
laws of different states, especially
that of Michigan. Followed by re-
marks of others on different states,
especially Texas, California and Wash
ington. Lesson in civil government
consisted of several suggestive ques-
tions by superintendent Peacock.
AS to the advisability of holding
any further meetings this year there
seemed some diversity of opinion but
it was left in the hands of the pro-
gram committee.

here in revised agriculture and a

in the talismanic words, irrigation, .

grain. Instead of vast ranges, sparse
settlements, slipshod ranch farming,
wheat kings, and cattle barons, this

Tie Dakota Hot Springs.

The Hot Springs of Arkansas have
long been deservedly popular, for the
reason that there has been no other
place that has filled the requirements
of both health and pleasure resort.
