Spring Valley and Sherman students at
the Sherman School. and for children of
the Denman and Redding Primary at
the Redding Schook
President Altman has suggested an
excellent arrangement for the teach
ers who will be required to serve on
the two-shift schools. This plan is a
modification of the Manhattan system.
Tho idea is TO arrange the duties of the
teachers so that those serving in the
two-class schools will not have 1T any
easier than the teachers of the regular
schools The shifts will be designated
as A and B, both shifts being made UP
Of children of the same grade but of
different schools. Each division will
have its own teacher.
The sum of s2345 was voted yesterday
morning for chinneys for the schools.

MINNEAPOLIS IN LINE
FOR BLACK HILLS TRADE

Walter 8. Harris, assistant cashier Of
the National Bank Of Commerce, on his
return from trip to the Black Hills
country, reports extensive railroad
building and the possibility Of much bus
mess for Minneapolis thru the friendly
disposition Of the retailers in that coun-
try. Deadwood people are trying to
secure an outlet to the main line Of the
Milwaukee's Pacific coast extension,
which would bring the business right to
Minneapolis. The Deadwood people in
the effort are being abetted by the
Minneapolis Commercial club.
A connection from Deadwood to the
Belle Fourche- Evarts line of the Mil.
waukee would give the outlet desired
and the inlet for merchandise.
Mr.. Harris says laconically: tsThey
are live towns, all right,'' referring t.
the cities, old and new, Of the rich
mining and grazing country. The Mil
waukeo has built seventy five miles
from Chamberlain and ten from Rapid
City, while the North Western has ex
tended its line fifty miles from Pierre
into the promised land. Mr.. Harris IL

country, and the business dealings will

about thru the railroad extensions.
