velLpreserved manhood. The Incl
Easnts of the capture of John Brown
are still fresh in his memory and he is
always pleased to relate the story Of
IAs thrilling capture, and in which he
took a very prominent part.
Mai. Greene at that time was an off,
ar Of the marines and was stationed at
washington. After the raid was made
an the arsenal, Oct. 10, 1859, he was
ordered to Harper's Ferry to report to
|col. Robert e. Lee, who afterward be-
|eame the great Confederate general.
when John Browns men came to
town it stirred up a great commotion.
troops were summoned from the coun-
try around. In the meantime Brown
and his men, after capturing a number
81 prominent citizens of the town to
Mold them as hostages, barricaded
themselves in the old fire engine house.
Among those who were captured as
hostages was a Col. Washington, a de-
csndant of the family of the father of
his country.

the evidences that this information

affair, and it was believed that they
had departed for a new field of opera
tons. There is not the slightest doubt
In the minds of the officers that both
robberies were committed by the
same men and that they are the most
dangerous craftsmen who ever oper
ated In the West.
Word comes from the Little Town Of
Hazel that recently a wholesale rob-
berry was committed In that village.
Five different places ware entered and

The truth Of the old adage Never

lustration In a little incident which
occurred in this vicinity the past week.

der Court Decree.
C. j. Bach. commissioner Of school
and public lands fer South Dakota,
was In Watertown recently to inspect
a fine h~alf-section of school land which
has recently come into the possession
of the state by reason of a Judgment
rendered by Judge Bennett. The de-
cree reverts to the state a very valu-
able piece Of property lying just west
of the city limits.
Years ago a large number OF min
ing claims were filed on the land for
the purpose of using the clay for max
ing bricks. The state received about
$410,0 900 from the land in various ways
and then the claims were abandoned.
Since that time some sev~enty-three
persons became interested in he title
by reason of liens, tax deeds and other
papers. These seventy-three persons
were made the defendants in the suit,
which resulted in a complete restora-
ton to the state of the title to the
land.
Mr.. Bach is feeling highly elated
over the Of the state in this
matter Mr.. Bach said that he was
just returning from a trip west in the
interest of the school fund business.
He had succeeded in leasing 46 pc,
cent of the school land west OF the
Missouri river, and has placed out at
interest every dollar of the perma-
nent school fund of the state, amount
ing 10 $4,000, 900. The state has still
$500, 900 acres of land to sell, and the
commissioner is of the opinion that In
thirty years the schools of the staIe
will be self-supporting. The office is
at present inaugurating a crusade
against delinquent debtors who have
not paid interest on borrowed school
money when due.

LOSES FORTUNE BY ONE DAY
Would Have Been $40, 900 Better Off if Norwegian
Had Lived a Few Hours Longer.

the old man desired to sleep over 1t"
one night more, and the two returned
home with the promise that the next
day they would return to Parker and
sign the papers. But the next morn
ing when Roberts went to the house
to take the old man to town he was
found in his bed sleeping his last sleep.
The county coroner was called and de-
cided that he had died of apoplexy.
Since his death the neighbors have
unearthed a kettle which was buried
in the chicken house and contained
1,40O in gold and silver. II is believed
he has more money hidden on his
place. All of tsis and the farm, worth
at least $4,000, would have gone to
Roberts If the old man had kept him
self alive ten or twelve hours longer.
The wonder is that Roberts himself
has not succumbed to heart failure as
he contemplates the significance OF
the saving so near and yet so far"
The property will be probated md IL
no heirs are found it will revert to the
state.
