Returning to the Hills.

Mrs. Cyrus Slower returned Tuesday
morning from Missouri. where she went
little over u year ago. Mr.. Slower
is coming across the country. They will
reside here in the future. Mr. and Mrs.
Slower lived for number OF wears on
Elk creek and have made up their minds
that the Rack Hills are not the worst
place in the world. after all. Thus it
often ls with the settler on the frontier,
a picture of the old home fingers IN his
memory only to make him discontented
with his rude and incomplete abode;
when some day he sells out and returns
to the scenes OF his childhood, only to
be disappointed. Every thing is
changed father, mother, brothers and
sisters gone, and he begins to realize
that 1.-THE old home is not what it used
to be- and once more he bids good-by
to the scenes of his childhood and re-
turns to his western home, with the
dreams OF other days all gone, and is
contented with his lot.

Committed Suicide.

Mr.. c. G. Lambert came sup from
White River Wednesday and brought
the news OF the suicide of VIM. Craven,
by shooting himself through the heart.
1t is now believed by all his friends that
he was insane, as his conduct forseveral
weeks was such that no other conclu-
sion can reasonably be drawn. His
preparations for suicide were premedi-
tated and deliberate. He lald down
on the bed, after first arranging gun
on table IN range with his heart and
then touched the trigger with II stick.
The act was committed at the home of
his brother. Gus Craven, when all were
absent from the house.

Black Hills Firemen.

The Black Hills Firemen's Associa-
ticn met at Hot Springs Wednesday for
the purpose OF transacting the business
OF the association and fixing the date
for the annual tournament. 1t is to be
hoped that, wherever it goes, it may
turn out more successfully than the one
held at this place last season. And our
firemen should understand that some
thing more than gambling, drinking
whiskey, and rowdyism should accom-
pany these annual tournaments, il they
expect to keep up an interestin them, as
the people OF the awful Black Hills know
and appreciate morality and are not
disposed to incourage public exhibitions
OF gambling and drunkenness.

Sioux Fails. as bishop Of South Dakota.
DR.. O'Gormanis one OF the ahlest theo-

the Catholic church. The appointment
OF such able men to high ecclesiastical
positions in our state shows that the
Vatican is recognizing the growing
Importance Of our western states. That
this is the way in which tits appreciated

testified by the fatteling and bipartisan
reception DR.. O'Gorman has been prom
lsed at the hands Of all classes sec ts, and

shows how a young, pushing commun-
1ty can respect the MAN, regardless OF

young woman. She came here, a child

resolutely refused TO return and live with
her friends in the East, because she is so

attained.
Another course open to Congress was to
foreclose all the mortgages and sell the
roads, by which means, according to COM
petent witnesses who had given evidence
before the committee, the Government
would obtain every dollar due. In con-
Gliding his consideration of the subject he
reminded his hearers that Mr.. Bryan was
pledged tc veto any refunding scheme.
The balance of his address was devoted
to the silver question, which he discussed
point of his party. Free coinage he held
to be necessary because gold was a monop-
oily, inadequate to fulfill the whole of the
functions of medium of exchange and,
moreover, because a double standard
would render monopoly absolutely impos-
sible.
He ascribed to the Morgan syndicate a
successful attempt to coerce the Cleveland
administration to sell its bonds at per
cent, while the market valuation was II
per cent, guaranteeing in return not to
permit any draft upon the treasury gold
reserve for period of eight months.
The Government yielded to that little
com bination of wealth and agreed to sell
$50, 100000 of bonds at 4 per cent and the
syndicate Immediately sold thirty millions
at II per cent.
The speaker closed speech of over TWO
hours duration by urging the electors to
select w. J. BRYAN as their next President
and so insure renewed prosperity.
The meeting dispersed with three cheers
for Bryan and Mcguire.
