Anti,nncas~or. We're Ads.

'1his is an antimacassar," said an
antiquary. "It is a hundred years old
and very valuable on account of the
quaint designs of it's embroidery. Some
day shall sell it to a millionaire. Yes,
some day this anti1nacassar will adorn
a millionaire's parlor, figuring there as
an antique object Of art, and that will
be as though a spittoon of today should
figure as an object of art in some aes-
thetic lady's drawing room in 30O0."
He laid the antimacassar, kind Of
tidy, in a sandalwood box. Then he
went on:
"The words derivation shows the
things use anti. against; macassar,
hair Oil. The antimacassar was spread
on chair backs to protect them from
the oil in peoples hair. Everybody
used Rowland's macassar oil ON his
locks in those days. The name given
to the tidy, or chair shield, was Il free

About week ago Charley Serassio
left for Hot Springs to see if the
waters of the Black Hills spa would
not benefit him. Charlie was suffer.
ing with a severe case of rheumatism.
and had been hardly able to walk. He
returned home this morning on the de-
layed Burlington, and was walking
about the town as chipper and as spry
as young colt. He says that he only
had taken four baths when he began
to notice an improvement in his condi-
ton, and it was not long before he was
able to discard his canes and walk
without their use. He intends to
again visit the Springs for short
time and see If he cannot effect a com.
plete cure. He says that they have
been making great many improve
ments at the baths, and by next week
will have all of the new innovations in
place and ready for customers and
patients. Charley believes that the
Springs are the best of any for rheu-
matism, and that they will effect q
cure in most any cases if the patients
get the right treatment and takes the
right kind of care of himself.-Lead
Call.

Primaries Next Tuesday.

Next Tuesday, May Is, from to $3.50
p. M. the republican primaries will be
held throughout the county. The
friends of Congressman Martin should
not fail to take sufficient interest to go
to the regular voting place and help
elect Martin delegation to the county
convention. See that friends and sup
porters of Mr.. Martin are sent as dele
gates. 1t will be impossible in any
precinct for any enemies of Mr.. Martin
to be elected delegate if the republi-
can voters turn out. Be sure that
there is no splitting up of the Martin
voters, but cast them for the same set
of delegates so that few anti Martin
men may not work in as delegates.
Precinct chairmen and secretaries
should carefully read the law and be
on hand at the proper time and see
that it is fairly executed.
The STAR would greatly appreciate
it if the chairman or secretary of each
precinct would telephone this paper at
once on Tuesday evening after they
close the polls the names of the dele.
gates chosen, or mail the names next
morning-but if possible telephone
them Tuesday evening as we will try
and arrange Tor the central office to
keep open later than usual.

shot Himself.

Last Saturday morning j. f. Ed
mundson. who has been driving ID dray
wagon for Theo. Cable for the
past few months, committed suicide by
shooting himself through the head.
He was paid off the evening previous
and spent the night gambling and
drinking somewhat, although.it is said
he was not intoxicated when he COM
mitted the act. He was at the Eureka
soloon alone with "Curley," the fellow
who does the janitor work sabout the
place, and looking at his watch re-
marked, 'its about time" "Curley"
asked what time it was and Edmund
son said it was five minutes of five.
"Curley" supposed that Edmundson
meant it was about time to be going.
"Curley' then went to work cleaning
out the front apartment and i'll few
moments there was shot inside, upon
going III he found Edmundson lying
upon the floor with Al calibro reyol-
yer by his side and BULLET hole
through his head, the bullet having
entered at the right temple and passed
through his head, coming out almost
exactly on the opposite side, but a
little back of the left temple. "Cur-
ley" says Edmundson never moved a
muscle DR.. Hargens was summoned
but of course his services were not
needed. Coroner Cramer was called
and empaneled jury. who found that
deceased came 80 his death by gun
shot wound by his own hand, with sui
cidal intent.

THE BASE BALL SITUATION.
The Local Team Getting Organized And
in Condition for the Season

the Local Team Getting Organized And
in Condition for the Season
The base ball situation is looming
up and the prospects are that Hot
Springs will have the fastest team this
year that we have ever had. 1t is a
safe prediction that Hot Springs will
nave the fastest team in the Hills
Several new faces will be seen in the
Hot Springs uniforms this season and
something about the players may be of
interest to the fans.
Among the new arrivals are Frank
lin Trummer, Omaha, and F. j Pratt, of
Sioux City, who are both unknown
quantities to us, but from their per-
formances in practice we should judge
that they are both there and over
A. r. Berkley, of Denver, who in his
position, it will require no great Judge
of ballplayer to see that he will easily
be in class all by himself before the
season is half over.
Charles Turner. of Cripple Creek, is
fast in or out fielder, and I'VE predict
from what we have already seen of his
work he will be nightmare to
all the pitchers in the Hills this sum-
mer.
f. A. Vaughn, of Fremont, who play
ed short for Deadwood last year. and
easily outstripped any short-stop in
the league will join the team Friday
morning.
Among the old familiars that will be
seen in our team this year is the only
Tom Daily, of Deadwood, the man who
has probably received more roastings
from the grand stand and bleachers
than any other ball player that ever
played IN the Black Hills, but iwithal
is one of the fastest ball players that
ever donned a uniform in this part of
the country, and Charles LaCroix, but
as this is his third season with us the
redoubtable Charles needs no further
introduction; and last but not least,
that old war horse, Joe Gravey, (who
will captain the team) will be seen
again this season performing some of
his coltish antics on the in field.
There are three of the fastest locals
trying out with the team, jerks Parks,
Clarence West and Ed LaMoreaux,
either Of whom would be a credit to
the team.
So it will be seen with this mighty
array that there will be some big things
doing,,in the ball yard this season.
If the feEce is completed the season
will open with Spearfsh on the 18th of
this month

NEW CITY ADM1N1srRAr ALTON.
DIR. Hargens Installed Mayor and New
COuMcilmen Take Hold.

Dr. Hargens Installed as Mayor and New
Councilmen Take Hold.
Last Monday night the old council
closed up business and the new mem
oers were sworn in. DR.. Hargens
entered upon his administration as
mayor, and Fred Hummel and John
Van oittert began another term as
councilmen from.the First and.Second
wards respectively, while Harry Cay
hart, from the Third and G. G. Woos
ter from the Fourth, entered upon
their first terms The hold-over coun-
cilmen are L. E. Highley, w. w.
Stewart, b. S. Kelly and S. L. Kirtley.
After finishing up old business the
new mayor and council took hold of
matters with vim. Mayor Hargens
made the following appointments,
which were promptly confirmed:
Auditor-Guy Bradley.
Street Commissioners with duties
OF marshaN N-Ewald Huebner.
The appointment of city attorney
was not made.
The council elected G. G. Wooster
president of the council and Harry
Gayhart vice president.
A prolonged and probably profitable
discussion was had relative to the
city's financial condition. The accu-
mulated funds in the hands Of the
city treasurer, to the amount of about
$4,000, will probably be used to take
up outstanding warrants, and the
auditor was directed to advertise for
propositions FROM warrant holders as
to what they would accept for their
warrants upon the dollar. Other fea-
lures of the city's financial condition
were thoughtfnlly considered and will
be dealt with later on.
A very decided stand was taken re-.
lative to stock running at large within
the city limits and the marshal will
be after any stock found running
about.
A hack ordinance passed it's first
reading. which places license of S25
upon single hack, sl5 upon the
second and SIS upon the third when
owned by the same party; and limiting
the charge to % cents within the city
limits inside of mile, or so cents for
more than mile, and double rates
of csn1oal,
The streets are to be given consider
able attention and much improved,
and everybody is going to be required
to abide by the ordinances in the way
of keeping them clean and orderly.
Mayor Hargens has made the follow
ing committee appointments:
Street and Alley-Gayhart, kirtley
and Stewart
Finance-Wooster, Hummel and
Kelly.
Fire and Police .Eighley, Kirtley
and Stewart.
Auditing-Van sittert, Wooster and
Gayhart
Water and Lights-Hummel, Woos-
ter and Van Sittert.
The council adjourned to the even
ing of the 18th.
Judging from the businesslike man
ner in which the administration has
taken hold of affairs they propose to
actively and carefully administer the
affairs of the city for the best interests
and welfare af the taxpayers-in
which they will have the hearty CO.
operation of this paper and the public
generally.
