The writer spent Saturday and
Sunday in Deadwood and Lead City.
Deadwood appears to be in the midst
of a lull all along the line. There
are twice as many empty store
rooms in the town as there are in
Rapid City, and it would be safe to
say five times as many unoccupied
dwellings. Lead is mucn the same
as usual, gradually pushing ahead
and everybody seems to be doing
business. But the streets in Doth
towns are sight to behold and
makes one long to get back to the
only town in the Hills in which to
live and enjoy life-Rapid City.

Death of Arthur III. Lee.

Arthur H. Lee died suddenly of
heart failure at his home in this city
Sunday morning, at the age OF thirty
nine years. During the past two
weeks he had been complaining of a
smothering sensation which would
overtake him occasionally, but moth
ing serious was thought of it until
the lamp Of life went out with such
sUddenness. He arose quite early
Sunday morning, warmed some milk
for the two months old child and
returned to bed. About an hour
later Mrs. Lees attention was at
tracted by his labored breathing. A
physician was promptly summoned,
but upon arrival pronounced the un-
fortunate man beyond all human
aid, and few moments later life
was extinct.
The death of Mr.. Lee is a sad one
indeed. He was a sober and in
dustrious man, but in his death his
wife and family of seven children
are left in destitute circumstances
AS soon as this fact became known
purse OF $l25Sip cash was quickly
raised, which defrays the funeral
expenses and leaves something in
the purse of the bereaved helpmeet
and her children. Deceased leaves
a father at Humboldt, Nebr. A
brother arrived Tuesday morning
and the remains of Arthur H. Lee
were laid to their last rest in Noun
tain View cemetery Thursday.

10 Retire the Silver Dollar.

Washington, March 2l.-Mr. Hill
has introduced another financial bill
in the house, which embodies in a
measure a part of the contents of
this bill putting the silver dollar on
parity with gold. The ostensible
purpose Of the bill is to increase the
subsidiary coinage, but in reality it
is for the retirement of the silver
dollar. 1t provides that the silver
bullion in the treasury shall be made
into subsidiary coinage as public re
quirements demand and after this
bullion has been exhausted to recon
silver dollars into subsidiary coin
age. The bill also provides for the
repeal of the act fixing the limit of
subsidiary coin and the act direct ting
the coinage OF any of this bullion in
the treasury into silver dollars.

closing of the school term. On that
day. an Alumni was organized with
eleven members and the first annual
banquet given.
The story of st. Scholastica is a
pretty tale of sisterly love and devo-
tion which through prayer conquered
prejudice, broke down an iron-clsd
rule and built a monastry. Through
the ages the society thus established
has lived and prospered TO the present
day. Mount WAS added to the
name adopted for the Canon City
academy when the movement for its
establishment was yet in its infancy.
Plans had been formulated TO build at
Boulder and the site selected was on
an eminence, hence the name, Mount
ST. Scholastica. When the Bishop
was consulted with reference to the
location of the academy, however, he
advised Canon City as a more desira-
BILE locality from the fact of its being
at the very gateway to the mountains I;
accessible from all points, in direct
touch with the east, west, north and
south, and because of its climate and
other advantages. In 1880 deal was
made for the old Macon residence on
the site of the present imposing build
ings. The old buildings having been
wrecked by a blast while construc-
tion work was in progress on the
state ditch, the state appropriated a
large sum of money for the society and
commodious building containing
the reception and music rooms, Ii
brary, science. room, dining hall,
kitchen, furnace room, infirmary,
minim's dorInatory bath and clothes
rooms and the Sisters apartments,
WAS completed in 1897 Later Eugene
O'Rielly. of Chicago, gave 5000 for
the erection of memorial chapel in
honor of his daughter, who died at
Mount st. Scholasrica academy. 1t

building discribed above and is built
in Gothic style.
Two years ago new building was
constructed directly west of the old
one and contains the auditorium and
study hall, clsss rooms, senior and
junior dormstorics, bath and clothes
rooms. art studio. lyceum, sewing
and fancy work rooms, senior and
junior recreation halls. store and fur
isace roams. Bridges connect the two
buildings.

stress upon the good they might ac-
complish in the world by spreading
the graces and knowledge acquired in
the academy amongst their sex and
associates. He praised the sisters Of
st. Scholastica for the great work
they had undertaken and were accom-
plishing. This is Rev. Father
in the priesthood and the occasion
that brought him TO Canon City was
notable one to him OH that account.
The musical numbers of the pro-
gram were of the highest classical
! and operatic order. from such compos-
ers as Hoist, Siegel. Branzoli, Beeth-
oven, Mozart and Aiberti.
Graduating medals and diplomas
were conferred on the class of 1902
