IS GIVEN A CAPTAINCY.

~~-'
tnincy of tho 22d Regiment.
Major j. Q. A. Braden, who was
recently promoted from lieutenant OF
Co. L, has written several letters to
friends in Aberdeen from San Fernando
and Gays that the South Dakota volun-
teers were ordered to quarters at Santa
Mesa on June II and for the first time
in 1875 days the boys went to bed with
the assurance OF not being called out.
He said that the regiment ran down
until there were but 2S3 men, for duty
in the entire regiment, but he didn't
want to be understood that the
men were sick, only worn out from the
work and few weeks rest would put
them in shape again.
During that week he said that the
regiment, with the exception of twenty,
had voted to be mustered out at San
Francisco, not desiring any grand
stand plays in their home state.
Major Braden also stated in his letter
that Col. Frost had been given a cap.
taincy in the regular army and had
been assigned to the twenty-second reg
iment now in Manila. The colonel will
accompany his own regiment to San
Francisco and after the muster out will
return to assume his new command.
He looks for a prolonged struggle in
the Philippines and expects it to be
drawn out good deal like the Indian
wars in this country.

A Dinner Test.

In Siberia there is good custom
that a bride. on coming to her hus-
bands house, has to give dinner pre-
pared with her own hands as test of
the education she has received. If she
succeeds in gratifying her guests, it is
taken as proof not only of the young
woman's own excellence, but also as a
recommendation Of her whole family,
by whom she was instructed.

Marion Wiley Killed.

Marion Wiley, Is year old son
of Rankin Wiley of Pleasant Grove,
was shot last Tuesday night and
died the following day. He was
walking along the road in company
with John Willis and when oppo-
site Edward Brogan's house Willis
picked up a stone and threw it at
Brogan's dog. A shot was imme-
diately fired, either from the house
or a clump of bushes adjoining, and
young Wiley fell to the ground
MORALLY wounded. His companion
ran to Rankin Wiley's nearby and
notified the boys parents. When
they returned to the scene of the
shooting they found the boy lying
unconscious. He was taken home
and only regained consciousness a
short time before he died the fol.
lowing day.
The ball, presumably from a re-
volver, entered the back and passed
entirely through the body. 1t is
not yet definitely known who fired
the shot but it is reported that bad
feelings have existed between Bro
gan and some of his neighbors. A
brother of the murdered boy has
for some time past been clerkin
for his uncle, Sam'l T. Wiley, a
COlOra.

EIkton Academy to Remain.

The committee appointed by the
trustees of Elkton Academy to take
under consideration the continuance
of that ancient institution, or turn
it over to the School Board, report
ed on Friday in favor of continuing
the academy. 1t must be consid
cred more in the light of a relic of
the old time methods of obtaining
a semi-higher education, a link be-
tween the subscription primary
(perhaps primer would be more
appropriate school and the college.
The appropriation from the State
of $500 is to sustain the academy,
500 to be reserved for keeping the
building and grounds in repair and
S4O0 appropriated for the teachers
salary. The committee recon-
mended that no tuition be charged
and that the number of pupils be
limited to thirty, none to be re-
ceived under ten years of age, and
that Miss Matte Frost be appointed
teacher.
The whole thing has the appear
ance Of a job. The academy has
out-lived its time. The public
High School more than takes its
place, and the Tome Institute will,
ere long, embrace the advantages
of primary school, academy and
college, all free to pupils who are
able to procure clothing fairly
respectable. The best interests OF
public education demand that the
Elkton academy building should be
merged in the common schools and
the pressure of minor pupils he
taken off of the public school and
high school of the town, and if
possible have the $500 State appro-
priation turned into the county
public school fund.

SingerIy Paper rlills Sold.

The sale of the paper mill at
Providence and the pulp mill at
Elkton, with machinery, land, etc.,
belonging to the Singerly Pulp and
Paper Co., was consummated late
Saturday evening. The purchaser
of the plant was Thos. H. Slavery,
vice president of the Pussy & Jones
Co., of Wilmington, Del, who rep
resents a syndicate composed of
himself, Robert Wetherill, of Ches-
ter, Pa, and Col. A. G. Pain, of
New York.
The trustees received for the
pulp mill at Elkton, together with
the land and wharves, the sum of
$50, 900, and for the paper mill at
Providence. with so acres of land,
20 tenant houses, machine shops
and stables, the sum of $4,000,
making a total of 100000 for the
entire plants. This is very low
figure for the mills, but the only
offer received by the trustees, and
upon their report to the court they
were instructed to sell. These
properties represented an outlay of
over 81, 60O,O 900.
1t is not known what use will be
made of the mills, but it is reported
the plant at Providence will be dis
mantled. IT would appear by the
price paid that the purchasers pro-
pose to remove the best and most
improved machines and abandon
the property to ruin, an addition to
the manufacturing ruins that
already dot the county.

and had reached the mill about the
same time as the owner, assisted in
carrying out platform scale. This
was about all that was rescued
from the flames. Improved mill
