ber 10.
He said II was noon hour anu-re was

They found a crowd I'm the street clus-
tered around Mrs. McDermott. who was
seated on the steps OF the house next

the neck.
The shouts OF the crowd indicated that
there was a man in the tenement with
a razor prepared to do some cutting. so
the witness stated that he with Officer
Toner went up against the locked door
and burst II I'm as well as the inside door
TO the tenement.
Officer Luby continued: Fitzgerald

and L closed In on him at once. seizing
him around the body, pinioning his arms
down, and 1 swung him right around

There is not likely t6 be much difficulty
in finding money in case OF war. A foreign
loan on acceptable terms is probably i'm
possible; but. the Russian banks and
merchants have @ample funds on which
the government could draw.
on reason why the British alarmist
news fails to convince the Russians is tho
perfect understanding here Of the benefits
Great Britain derives from continuance
of the strained situation. IL was known
here year ago that Great Britain was
planning to occupy Thibet and extend the
railroad TO a point in the Yangtse Valley

An election will be called in Big
Stone City soon for the purpose of vot-

of taking up the old bonds now due
and payable and also taking up out
standing warrants. We are unable to
state the amount of bonds that will
be asked for. but it will be a little less
than IS. 900. in all. The old bonds are
drawing sever per cent interest. and
the warrants the same. and the new
bonds will be sold to the state school
fund, and draw only five per cent. and
this interest goes into the appoltion-
ment fund and is apportioned back to
the schools of the state so we would
get back a part of it at least. 1t
would result in a saving to the dis
trict of about 5000 a year, and looks
like a proposition that ought to be
unanimously supported.
