Where Care is Required.

Keep careful eye upon the baking
powder sent you by your grocer to see
that an inferior brand is not substituted
for the Royal. There are many cheap
limitations Of this necessary leavening

which are sometimes sent to the Gust.

the greater profit which they afford TO
the dealer.
Carefully avoid, also, all so-caled
baking powders offered under misrepre-
sentation. Alum powders are inyari-

Rev. J. j. Shingier on Thursday even
ing submitted his resignation, as pastor
of the Congregational church in this
city, having accepted call from one of
the important points in the state of
New York.
Rev. SEingler has, during the brief
period Of his sojourn here, gained an
enviab!e reputation as minister Of
great force and ability. and the high
social qualities Of himself and his estim-
able wife, have endeared them to the
masses to an extent that will render
their departure a matter of the most
profound regret to the community at
large. The CHRONICLE joins with their
numerous friends in the earnest wish
that their future lot may be cast in
pleasant places, and that all their paths
may be paths of peace and sweet con
tentment.

Miss Ida Sherman, the Evangelist,
has been holding series Of meetings at
the Baptist church in this place during
the past week, in which much general
interest was manifest. Her congregation
have been large and appreciative, and
the masses have doubtless been materi.
ally benefited in spiritual sense, by
attending these services. Miss Sher
man is very foreible and impressive
speaker, full of religious zeal and en-
tbusiasm, and one cannot escape the
well settled conclusion that she is won
derfully sincere in her pronounced
religious beliefs. Her remarks upon
the text, "Oh death where is thy sting
&r," chosen for the service on Sunday
evening, were pertinent 10 the sutyect
in hand, and exceptionally clear and
convincing There were none present
who were not pleased with her dis
cussion, and most favorably impressed
with the sincere and earnest purpose Of
the lady, in the effort she is making for
the salvation of her race.

Short in His Accounts.

In their final settlement with County
Treasurer b. NJ. Tunley, on Thursday,
the county commissioners determined
the fact that his accounts showed q
shortage on their face of $3.2l9.96. Oh
this amount Mr.. Tunley is able to &C
count for something over Sl,l0O, the
greater portion of which is in the hands
Of deputy tax collectors.
The commissioners have notified the
state examiner of the affair. and upoc
his arrival here, a thorough inyestiga-
ton of the books will be made. which
Mr.. Tunley feels assured will result in
the discovery Of errors, the correction
of which will greatly decrease the
amount Of the shortage which at pres
ent is apparently shown to exist.
Mr.. Tunley's reputation for honesty
and integrity is not excelled by apy
man in Custer county, and it is not the
belief Of any of his acquaintances that
he is guilty Of criminal intent in cdp-
nectiou with the unfortunate situtatiin
in which he is now placed. Vt

A Sioux Suicides.

The Hot Springs Star of the 9th inst.
has the following account Of the suicide
of Thunder Hawk, Sioux Indian con.
fined in the Jail at that place awaiting
trial upon the charge Of the murder of
squaw and her son at Rosebud agency;
The town was startled this morning
by the news that the Indian, Thunder
Hawk. brought in by Deputy U. S.
ty Jail, had "shufIled off" by twisting
the towel into rope and strangling
himself with it. Deputy Sheriff East
man informs us that it must have been
done between 8 and a. M, as he vas
up during the night on account Of sick
ness IN his family and he was all right
ut o'clock. His remains were taken
TO the morgue at the rooms Of Under
taker Joyce and an inquest held over
the remains. The jury brought in the
following verdict:
We, the undersigned jurors, on an
inquisition on the body Of Thunder
Hawk, Undian) agree that according to
evidence he came to his death by his
own hands in his cell in Fall River
county Jail. Death came by strangula-
tion. i. L. CLARK, Foreman,
GLEN ID. HART.
HOMER MOORE.
The crime for which Thunder Hawk
was brought here was most revolving
one. On the 18th Of December he with
an accomplice, John Lance, who is also
here in Jail, set upon squaw, named
Her Good Horse, at Rosebud agency and
literally pounded her brains out with
stones. Her little seven year old son,
seeing his mother murdered, started to
run up a canyon to try to escape. when
they followed him up and pounded the
little fellow to death with stones also.
There seems to have been little ques-
ton about their guilt, and Thunder
Hawk, having heard ofTwo Sticks fate,
and the Indians having a mortal dread
of hanging, would rather die by his own
hand than allow a white man to kill
him. Thunder Hawk was at one time
quite prominent Indian and occupied
a place on the police force, but it is said
he killed a man and became so turbu-
lent in other ways that his shoulder
straps were taken from him. Both he
aud John Lance were better educated
than most OF the Sioux and talked En-
glish fuently. He was good looking
Indian and there are no marks Of vio'
lence or discoloration about him. A
large crowd Of people view the re.
mains to-day. A telegram was sent tc
Deputy Marshal Bray to find out What
shall be done with the body, and In
structions were received to bury him
here at the least possible expense.

"A big boom. 1t will also force other

A Modern Diana

Diana, the twin sister of Apollo, is
said to have caused the mountains to
treinb!e, and the forests to resound with
the painting of the wounded deer,
brought down by the unerring shafts
from her silver bow, but our modern
Diana, Miss Clara Cruson, young lady
of IL summers. residing with her par
ents two miles north of this city, ig-
nores the bow, and handles with match
less skill, the rife, with which she makes
dsvouring animals tremble, il not the
mountains, and the hills resound with
the death cry of expiring varmints.
On Friday mst, O catamount Of extra
ordinary size and boldness invaded the
hen house npon her fathers premises,
and gathering up fat hen, was making
way with it when the house dog gave
chase and ran the varmint up a tree,
Clara ran into the house and soon ap
peared upon the scene with her trusty
rife, and with one shot brough. the
animal to the earth. dead as the demo-
cratic party. at her feet. The animal
was large and ferocious. and while the
average young lady would have swooned
or run away, our modern Diana. who is
probably the best pistol or rifle shot in
the Hills, deliberately drew bead upon
it and put out its life light. The hide Of
the animal is being tanned by Mr..
Cruson for rug rug to be presented to
the heroine as . fitting trophy Of her
courage and skill.
