1t was a terrible shock to the morals

err, little Jesse rallied from the effect of
his fathers life of evil influences and was
led to q life of integrity.
He and his mother and sister Mary
moved into a very modest house at No.
3402 Tracy avenue, Kansas City, Mo.
Young Jesse was the man of the family
and was regarded as d modest young
man, quiet and ind~ustrious-and the pride
of his mother. Whatever youthful follies
he had were only those of any other grow
ing boy. But if a single wild oat was
soWn, it was magnified and made great,
all on account Of the terrible name which
was his birthright.

Ten days ago Chad Stowell. a noted
character of Missouri. turned states evil

Jesse James, had planned the robbery.
His confession wholly freed the son of

to do successfully before.
When the child was a mere baby Jesse
James, who had fled from home to escape
arrest, returned home disguised and lived
in his W household under the name of
Howard. The child played around his
knee and grew to adore him. Jesse
James the elder. would read aloud stories
from the newspapers of the adventures
of the James boys, and the little child,
who was too young to comprehend the
evil thought the lanes boys demi-gods.
When little Jesse was six years old,
Jesse the elder was murdered by a treach-
erous friend, Bob Ford. Little Jesse
happened to hear the shot, and saw his
father die.

Jesse James, Jr, will soon be a free

The wheels of justice are revolving in
such a way as to turn the locks in the
ponderous iron doors which hold him in

Jesse James was arrested last Septem-

jury of Kansas City and was condemned

INSTITUTE NOTES.

The enrolment Wednesday p. m. is
as follows: Fall River, 43; Lawrence,
%; Custer 8; Pennington, 81; Meade, 16;
Butte, 5.
"Who is the best looking county
superintendent" "Why ours of
course" is the reply of every teacher.
Supt. Pearse is the ''heavy weight"
in the institute. There are no eight
weights"
A little girls definition for drawing:
"Think of something and draw a line
around your think" Can the class in
drawing at the institute teat that?
Many will take advantage of the op-
portunity which few of the teachers
from the Hills have ever enjoyed, and
remain over next week for the state as
sociation.
Teachers have missed the genial
presence of DR. Lymer who has met SO
many of them in institutes in former
years. It is hoped that his daughters
sickness may not prevent him from
looking in upon the work and greeting
his many friends. Teachers in the
Black Hills universally regret his con-
templated change Of residence which
his resignation as president Of Black
Hills college will probably necessitate

This is Important.

It is probable that a very large num-
ber of teachers who come next Tuesday
will find it necessary to go to private
homes to board. 1t is important that
they all find pleasant accommodations.
Those who have room for any number
are earnestly urged to inform Mrs.
Thornby or leave word at the postof1ce
by Saturday noon. Do not fail to do
this, and let all who can keep even one
leave word. Then they should arrange
to meet the teachers at the Evans-the
headquarters of the association-upon
the arrival of the train Tuesday even
ing and take the teachers home with
them. This is matter Of considerable
Importance, for these visitors must be
properly provided for and every resi-
dent should be interested.

QUINTUPLE INSTITUTE.

QUINTUPLE INSTITUTE.
The Normal Institute of Black Hills Coun-
ties Magnificent Success
Largely Attended.
Probably never in the history of
South Dakota, and possibly never in
the educational history of the country,
has just such an educational gathering
been held as is now in session in this
city-five counties uniting in holding
the annual county normal institute.
All the counties in the Hills, except
Custer, are participating. The county
superintendents, who are the control
ing powers, and have planned and are
successfully carrying on this meeting,
are Miss Bird, of Meade, Miss Trissler,
of Pennington, Miss Murrin, of Law
renee, Miss Brandt, of Butte, and Mrs.
1'hornby, of Fall River. These ladies
have given great deal of anxious
thought to plans for the institute and
have secured especially competent
teachers for instructors. They have
earnestly endeavored to arrange the
work and entertainment SO that the
teachers may secure the greatest bene-
fit and most happiness from this
unique institute.
Mrs. Thornby is everywhere present
looking after the teachers, finding
them temporary homes and seeing that
everything is properly done and every
body happy. She has a thousand and
one things to do and she is doing them
all. Her sister county superintend-
ents are giving her all help possible,
but the great burden naturally rests
upon the local officer. All of the five
officials are working together harmon
iously and effectively.
The instructors are Prof. Kerr, the
conductor, professor in the state ag-
ricultural college at Brookings, S. D.,
who teaches classes in grammar, geog-
raphy, current events and school law;
Supt. Pearse, of Omaha, who lectures
upon psychology, general history and
didactics; Supt. Larrabee, of Rapid
City, who teaches arithmetic, U. S.
history and civil governments; Miss Il.
Anna Morris, of Cleveland, who has
charge of classes in physiology, read
ing, and conducts exercises is physical
culture; Mrs. Nichols of Omaha, who
has second primary work and classes
in drawing; Miss Foster, of Sioux City,
who has charge of first primary work.
These teachers have the work we'll in
hand and the members of the institute
are attentive, ready and willing to
work.
On Monday evening Mrs. Thornby
and her Fall River county teachers
gave reception to members of the in
stitute at the w. r. G. rooms, which
was very successful and enjoyable
affair and very gratefully appreciated
by the visiting teachers.
On Friday evening (tonight) Miss
Morris will give public recital at the
college chapel. She is an elocutionist
of national repute and no one should
miss this entertainment. Admission
15 cents.
On Monday evening next. Supt
Pearse will give lecture at the col
lege chapel. Subject: "Chickamaug;
and Chattanooga" Admission free
The attendance at the institute thus
far is very encouraging to the county
superintendent. The roll given below
shows an attendance of 124 for the
third day of the session. The enroll
ment will probabl ly reach $50.

Prof. Tegast y and wife will arrive in
Hot Springs next Thursday and remain

musician. They will be here to assist
ON the program Of the educational as
sociation. Do not fail to hear them.

STATE EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATION,
Teachers to Arrive in a Special Train Next
Tuesday Evening.

Teachers to Arrive i'm Special Train Next
Tuesday Evening.
President Brown of the State Edu-
cational association telegraphs Mrs.
Thornby that he expects even more
teachers to come to the meeting here
next week from the eastern part of the
state than he had at first figured on
and we believe he placed his estimate
at about 400. The special train will
leave Sioux City Tuesday morning at
six o'clock and reach Hot Springs at
about seven in the evening.
The week will be an interesting one
and every resident should exert them
selves in making it pleasant for visit
-ors.

A VERNMENT RESORT
sucl, the Commissioner of the General
Land Office Recommends of
Wind Cave.

Such the Commissioners of the General
Land Office Recommends of
Wind Cave.
The commissioner of the general
land Office at Washington has handed
down his decision in the contest case
of South Dakota Mining Company vs..
Jesse d. Mcdonald, a copy of which
which was received by the local land
Office yesterday. This is the long
dawn out contest involving the fam
GUS Wind Cave property near Hot
Springs and has been frequently re-
ferred to as the "wind cave case.'
By his decision the commissioner
sustains the decision of the local off,
cials to effect that the land is not min
eral but orders that the homestead en-
try of Mcdonald be cancelled, holding
that he had not shown good faith in
his occupancy of his homestead.
The commissioner further holds that
the ground is not mineral in character
aud is not subject to entry as such, the
the testimony failing to show that
it has a commercial value. He re-
commends that the cave be reserved
by the government as public resort.
Both parties to the suit are some-
what surprised at the outcome and
will doubtless appeal to the secretary
of the interior. 1t Is hardly probable
that the latter will reverse the ruling
of the general land 1ce.-Rapid City
Journal.
Uncle John Stabler says this is fav-
orable to them any way, because the
local land Office decided against them
and infavor of Mcdonald.
j. R. Buchanan, the general passen-
ger agent, who SO thoroughly looks af-
ter the extensive passenger traffic of
the F. E. & M. v. R'y, was Wednes-
days arrival to enjoy few days at the
Springs. Mr.. Buchanan's department
has published numerous illustrated
pamphlets descriptive Of Hot Springs
as health and pleasure resort and
thereby has perhaps done as much OF
more to advertise our resort than any
! other person. For this reason, aside
from his genial personality, Hot
Springs people are always glad to have
him visit our Carlsbad.

The teacher OF a district school In
Maine tells a story that reminds me of
Mary and her little lamb. only it Is OF
Joe and his little dog.
Joe was boy about 8 years old and
was devoted to a small. lank puppy.
Out OF school hours boy and dog were
inseparable. and Joe apparently could
not reconcile himself to the necessity
OF leaving the dog at home. For sew
erai mornings the teacher allowed the
puppy to remain at Joe's feet under
the desk.
Then there came a day when the
small dog could not be kept quiet, but
frisked about, to the delight Of the
school and the dismay Of the teacher.
"Joe." she said firmly, you must
take that dog out"
Joe looked at her mournfully, but
picked up the pup and. with its head
against his cheek, started for the door.
The boys feelings were evidently hurt,
but he said nothing until he reached
the door; then, giving his teacher re-
proachful look. with a plying glance
toward his dog. he said slowly, "And
