Custer weekly chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, S.D.) 1890-1931, 1903-12-05

We learn that an alteration took place
at the London mine on the first between
the Supt. and one Of his men in which
the miner got quite badly bruised about
the face. This all came about from the
fact that said miner lard he is said to
be a good one) would persist in bringing
liquor to the mine, and not only drink
ing himself but insisting upon others to
drink with him. All this was democrat
izing the force and directly opposed or
ders, as it had been given out and plain
~ understood by all that no drinking
of liquor would be allowed by the min
ers while on duty. We have heard since
that the Supt. had made the remark that
while he still intended tn enforce this
rule at the mine, yet he would not deny
that he let his temper get away with
him and no doubt acted too precipitate-
ly in the matter. We deplore this oc.
currence and We do not think that 1t is
liable to happen again, and at the same
time we know that the rule is a good
one and should he strictly observed. 1t
is a rule which is more necessary for the
protection ofthc miners themselves than
it is for the welfare Of the company, and
in every we'll regulated mine giant pow
der and whiskey should eve 60 To-
pether.

Climatic Cures.

The influence of climatic conditions in
the cure of consumption is very much
overdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food diges-
ton, and a regular use o fGerman Syrup.
Free e~xpectoration in the morning is
made certain by German Syrup, soils a
good nights rest and the absence of that
Weakening cough and facilitating night
sweat. Restless nights and the exhaus.
ton due to coughing, the greatest dan
ger and dread Of the consumptive can be
prevented or stopped by taking German
Syrup literally and regularly. Should
you be able to go to a warmer cline, you
will find that of the thousands of con-
sumptives there. the few who are bene'
6ted and regain strength r those who
use German Syrup. Trial bottles, 25c

School N otes.

The Caesar class are doing much bet
ter work now. The grades in that study
last month were better than in any
other. They are now reading in Chap
ter Forty, one Of Caesars most remark
able speeches. 1t is a bard Chapter but
We have a good start in it. To most Of
the class it has become the favorite study
and as long as the interest in the class
work is kept up Prof. Jackson will make
no complaint as to the work done.
The program that was to be delivered
by the Opns Literary Chapter is to be
delayed until the other society shall
have prepared theirs when both will be
given together.
1t seems that the Algebra class find
simultaneous equations more difficult
than the previous work.
The tennis, croquet and football par
ties have gone into winter quarters-by

Perhaps no one enjoyed the Thanks
giving holiday quite so much as the High
School students. On Thursday after
noon at 3 o'clock sixteen Of the High
School responded to an invitation Of Miss
Maude Metcalf, to participate in a "lum-
Der wagon ride" The party rode very
sedately through town but when Custer
was lost to sight by an abrupt turn in
the road, their pent up spirits burst
forth and the air was filled with laugh
ter and fun. 1t was quite amusing to
see the startled farmers rush to the door
just in time to see a merry hooking
crowd dash past. At Four Mile they
were delightfully."- entertained at the
home of Mrs. F. L. Kirk, and on the re-
turn trip after having given a "serenade-
ing" and "chivareeing" party, they were
likewise serenaded by some lone person
age "by the wayside." At 7 o'clock a
tired but happy party drove into town
filling the air with school yells, calming
down just in time to attend the Thanks
giving services, a fitting close ofthe day.

Most of the hunters have returned,
some of them well supplied with veni-
son and some with none On the whole
the game seems more scarce in the lime
stone range than it has been for many
years, and the deer that were encounter
ed seem unusually wild. There is no
doubt that the restrictions imposed by
the game laws have had the effect to in
crease the number on the range but in
another way it has its drawbacks. When
the opel season for hunting was longer
there were fewer hunters in the field at
a time, but now that the season only
lasts a month the hunters are all on the
ground at once and their favorite pas
ture is so covered by men, there is no
room for deer. Nevertheless the law is
O good one and the game in the Hills
will increase from year to year. The
way it has been In the past, when the
autumn months set in, the hunters
swarmed to the Black Hills from all over
the states, and even from Europe. In
that way it would not take many years
to exterminate everything in the shape
of wild game, and the deer would be as
rarely met with as are the buffalo. which
are now only conspicuous by their alb
