 From Minas Prietas there comes a report. the authenticity Of which can not be determined, that a couple of weeks ago Ernest Holt accidentally shot himself, dying within few h urs from the effect of his injuries. The report goes that he had been sleeping with his revolver under hi, pillow, aud as he arose in tue morning, in taking out the pistol he dropped 1t upon the floor, and it discharged, the bullet striking him in vital part. MT. fIolt was well known in Sonora, having worked long time at La Colo- rada and Miuas Prietas, and owning valuable mining properties in the vicinity of Suaqui de Batuc. He was from Las Cruces, New Mexico, where his fathers family reside and he was about thirty years of age.

THE TEACHERS, INSTITUTE.

The Teachers Institute closed on
Saturday August 18th, after a most
satisfactory session. All the teachers
were loud in their praise OF the corps
of instructors and of the efficient work
done by Superintendent Myers. There
We're but few men. in attendance, the
good times and higher wages paid in
other pursuits have driven many out
of the profession and the fact remains
that in spite of the advance of wages
in many townships there are barely
enough teachers in the county to fill
the positions. The examinations this
year were severe and rigid and some of
the applicants will doubtless be unable
to get the required grades. Among
the other things accomplished was the
establishment of travelling library for
the teachers of the county. It will be
remembered that at the time the lib
eral library proposition was made to
Denison the same donor made a prop
osition to the teachers of the county
that he would give $500 for teachers
library payable S100 this year and $50
for eight succeeding years if the teach
ers would pledge the same. This
matter was laid before the teachers
and they responded nobly to the call.
The teachers library is now assured
and we believe it will prove of great
benefit to them and indirectly to the
pupils and to all the people of the
county. The money will be used for
the purchase of books treating on
pedag gogy and allied subjects. While
| the institute was not as large in
numbers as some that have been held
here it was an enthusiastic and hard
working body and accomplished good
results. The feeling of the teachers is
shown by the following resolutions
which they passed:

gets down to business he shows that he

His talk was thoroughly enjoyed. We

itself.
Mr.. President and Fellow Settlers,
old and young:
1t is with considerable diffidence
that I attempt to express the appre-
citation we all feel for the hearty well
come that Denison has extended to this
assemblage of neighbors and pioneers
and that has been SO pleasantly voiced
by your mayor
Though it has been nearly thirty
three years since arrived in Iowa and
Crawford county at the same time
without trespassing on the state at
large, hardly feel that these are suf-
, ticient credentials to entitle me to a
old settlers. enjoy.
| For an old soldier or an old settler,
I have the same feeling of veneration.
The one has risked life and limb upon
the battlefield in defense Of national
honor; the other has endured the dan
gers, the hardships. the vicissitudes of
frontier life, bravely and patiently,
for the upbuilding of national growth
and progress.
| 1t is hard for those of us who repre-
sent younger generation to appre-
ciate the conditions Of the first settlers.
J We listen to stories Of early adventure
| and to anecdotes Of sometimes humor-
Gus, sometimes pathetic experiences OF
those who first broke the soil in this
community. But they only convey a
4 faint idea of the sacrifices, of the lone
liness, of the unremitting toll neces-
sary to overcome the stubborn obsta-
cles that barred every advance step
1t took men and women of iron nerve
dauntless courage, and unyielding en-
J durance to wiring success from such
adverse circumstances Upon the
foundation Of an edifice depends it:
stability. Upon the early settlers large
ly depends the character and the pos
} sibilities of community. The earl.
settlers of Crawford county may vel
. take pride in being measured by thi
standard.
Within the memory. of those her
