of Another Drug.

FOUR ARRESTS.
Dispensers or Lager Arrestea a~A
Waive Examination.

Dispensers Of Lager Arrested And
Waive ExRminatiou.
Considerable of a stir was made in
the city on Saturday afternoon by COM
plants being sworn out by States At
torney Keller, against the saloon keep
ers of Elk Point. The four dispensers
OF liquid freshments marched under the
protecting wing Of Sheriff Anderson.
on Monday morning to the office OF
Squire Ames and waived the prelimi-
nary examination, in consequence OF
which the Squire bound each one over
to await the action of the grand jury,
which convene in this city on the 10Th
day of April. The arrested parties
were Terry Collins, Wesley Guillame,
Alfred GRANVILLE, and Joseph Fountain.
Each gave the bond required and have
been released from the control of the
sheriff.
There has for some time been q move
on foot on the part OF the temperance
people TO begin action against these
places, and a few weeks ago a delega-
ton .of ministers called on States At.
torney Keller, requesting him to take
some decided move with reference to
the enforcement of the prohibitory
statute. He stated he was ready the
moment the evidence was furnished.
Evidence was secured quicker than
anticipated, for +. E. Wenner took ex-
ceptions to his arrest last week,
which was made on the strength Ut
the superstition that he had some
thing to do with the disappearance
of a keg of beer from a dray wagon,
and appeared before States Attorney
Keller and testified under oath AZ
to what was going on, and what was
being done by the parties afterwards
arrested. Mr.. Keller considered the
evidence sufficient to file a formal COM
plant and the result was a. stated
about.
In a conversation with one OF the ac-
tive spirits in the prosecution on Mon
day, it was stated to the reporter, 'The-
end is not yet, we are going into this
fight to win and the saloons will be
closed as sure az fate"

A SAD CASE.
An Ex-COunty superintendent Cen.
mita suicide.

A week ago N. NJ. Hills of Gayville,
ex-county superintendent committed
suicide by hanging. Nearly his last
act was to pen a letter which is quite
interesting:
Yankton, S. d. Feb. 2, 1895. To my
Friends: Findin my old illness re-
turning and feeling that q permanent
cure is impossible, rather than longer
burden my friends, l have resolved to
plunge into the unknown future trust.
ing that at last rest will await my tired
body. Craving forgivness for this rash.
act, the last of my lifetime Of mistakes,
with a breaking heart l bid you all q
last good-bv.
| have labored hard to do and be
something in the world but my path
way is strewn with blasted hopes aEd
miserable failures. Despair like the
blackness of eternal night possesses my
soul. Hope has forsaken her n
brilliant place in my heart and an in
tense feeling pevades my mind that
myself, my family and my friends will
BE- better off when the place which now
knows me shall know me no more.
God only knows the intensity of my
sutferings in mind and body. He alone
knows the magnitude OF my wishes to
do good in the world, and as he alone
a reward me for what / have tried
to do and died because I have failed to
do it. My dying request is that my
children may always keep in mind the
lessons of truth and virtue l have al
ways tried to teach them, and that my
wife will try to forget 80 worthless an
appendage as | have been. NICK.

Judge H. H. Blair appeared before
the city council meeting last evening
and presented his idea with reference
to water works for the city. What he
desired doing was the sinking Of a few
drive wells for the purpose OF deter
mining as to the supply of water in
this section and to get some data as
to what interference if any, the quick
sand would make to a large
supply. Before making this expert
ment he wished the council to grant
him a franchise for the laying Of mains
through the streets Of the city. The
alderman and the mayor talked the
matter over informally for some time
and finally requested the Judge to
make definite plans and submit q de.
definite proposition in writing as to
the extent Of his experiment, II under
taken, and il successful, how large the
plant would be, If constructed. Elk
Point needs a water works system and
needs it badly. The COURIER hopes
that the plans under contemplation
will! result in securing a system.
