mains are in the chapel and can be seen
by anyone wishing to view them. She
will be laid to rest in Evergreen ceme-
terry.
Mrs. Matte Bentley, wife of Adju-
tant Thomas II. Bentley at the soldiers
home, after enduring a long and pain
full illness from Bright's disease, was
claimed by the King of Terrors on
Wednesday morning, and has passed
beyond pain and suffering. She bore
her illness with remarkable patience
and fortitude. The funeral services
were conducted by Rev. Baker at IL
o'clock this morning at the rooms in
the Minnekahta block and her remains
were laid to rest in Evergreen ceme-
terry. She has not been a resident of
Hot Springs very long and during her
short stay has been sick most of the
time. but those who were fortunate
enough to make her acquaintance,
speak Of her in the very highest terms
of praise. Rev. Baker says she died in
the full hope of a Christians reward.
During her sickness she was ministered
unto by her faithful friend, Miss Gard
ner, who did everything in her power
to make her suffering bearable.
Mrs. Matte Bentley was born Sept.
90, 1S49 in Pennsylvania; was married
Aug. 4, 1880, and lived in the Black
Hills ever since except the last two
years, which she spent with her parents
in Minnesota, anb where she was taken
down with the disease which carried
her off.
At the soldiers home last night the
soul of James Griffen passed to the
Great Beyond. He enlisted March 9,
1862; was discharged April IA, 1865;
entered the home Jan. 8, 1891 and died
Jan. %, 1895. "Blind jimmy" as he
was Familiarity called, was a general
favorite at the home and in the north
ern Hills, and the report of his death
will be sad news to his many friends.
He will be buried at 9 o'clock this af-
ternoon.

Our School System
PROFESSOR SHEAREk's METuons an
PROVED BY THE "BALTIMORE
SUN "

In recent editorial. the Baltimore
N"n has something to say regarding
Prof. Shearer's effort to correct tba
evils of the usual systems employed in
graded schools. A full explanation of
the system used in the New Castle
schools is given, and favorablv com
mented upon In closing, the article
says: AT New Castle it means that
those who take the full course will
average under the new system a gain
OF three years. For the taxpaver il
means il all get but the same amount of
schooling that they would under the
former system. that the city will save
per pupil $45, the cost of schooling
pupil three years. These results merit
attention. The New Castle system
seems in part reversiOn of the ungrad-
ed school, but it is none the worse for
recognizing the value of common sense
PrOf Shearer's methods are attract. |
ing national attention, and New Castle
people may well be proud of the ex.
our schools have attained.
Pupils may congratulate themselves
hat individual effort is sure to be re-
garded.-Ne'O Castle, Pa, COuraat.
