CASHIER THURSTON
HAS DISAPPEARED
TRUSTED OFFICIAL OF MOORE
BANK BECOMES INVOLVED
AND GETS OUT.

A small sensation attended by the
rumors, was created the middle of
last week when it became known
that c. w. Thurston, cashier of the
First State Bank of Moore had skip
ped out to parts unknown without
giving anyone any previous intima-
ton of his intended flight.
1t appears that Thurston has been
guilty Of some extremely hazardous
financiering, using the funds of the
bank in various land and live stock
speculations which did not pan out
as he expected.
Several weeks ago, some of the Of
tlcers and stockholders decided to
look into the management of the
bank and immediately discovered the
unfortunate manner in which the
cashier had involved the institution.
Thurston was called up and after
attempting to cover up the matter,
made a complete statement of the
very bad business.
One week ago Saturday, Thurston
mounted his horse and started north.
Since that time he has not been seen
nor heard from and the supposition
is that he rode over to some point
on the Great Northern and took a
train either east or west.
The bank officials sifted the affairs
through to the bottom and arrived
at complete understanding of the
banks condition. The shortage,
BROUGHT about by Thurston's specu-
lations and poor judgment was i'm
mediately made up among the di-
rectors and the bank is now in as
good shape as ever.
We are reliably informed that
Thurston left lot of creditors in
the lurch on his own personal ac-
counts. Such accounts in the sum of
three thousand dollars have already
been placed in the hands of at
torneys.
lhurston's friends hold that the
young cashier has done nothing for
which he can be held liable on a
criminal complaint They say that
he was very visionary and, very ma
turally, came to the end of his
tether in rather short order.
The directors of the First State
Bank met few days ago and elected
E. 0. Hedrick, late of Ottumwa, Iowa,
cashier to succeed Thurston. Mr..
Hedrick has had fifteen years ex-
perience in the banking business and
is considered an extremely safe and
conservative man.
Thurston was, for several months,
employed in the Bank of Fergus
County in this city and was very
highly esteemed by his employers and
by all with whom he came in contact
] socially. Clean and upright in his

Thanks to the timely appearance

Last Thursday, however, the father
OF the young man. who is one of
the substantial citizens of the state
OF Kansas, arrived and managed to
get the charge dismissed by paying
UP the shortage
The elder Higgins left Saturday
morning for Kansas with his son.

LOWER COUNTRY IS
LOOKING VERY fine
E. o. BUSENBURG AND FAMILY
RETURN FROM TRIP TO
FLATWILLOW.

Elmer Busenburg, the popular real
estate man, accompanied by his
family, returned Sunday from a FIVE
days trip down through the Flatwil-
low country, during which they visit
ed number of the ranches between
this place and the Flatwillow postof-
fee.
To the Democrat, Mr.. Busenburg
stated that the trip is liberal edu-
cation. 1t is impossible to conceive
the beauty of that great country and
the numerous evidences of prosperity
without travelling through it.
THE ranchers and stockmen down
that way have hundreds of tons of
hay in excess of the quantity which
will be required by the stock on hand
during the coming winter" said the
enthusiastic real estate man. James
Wilson, who has fine ranch, has
at least 500 tons. w. S. Shaw, who
owns. the old Parberry ranch, has
1900 tons in the stack. l would not
attempt to estimate the tonnage of
the haystacks on the big N4Bar ranch.
Mr.. Lynch informed me that they
have had six mowers steadily at work
since the Goth of July and yet have
hundreds of acres of good hay to
cut.
"The N-Bar people also have 200
acres of oats yet uncut and it is about
as fine as | have ever seen. The
finest piece of oats | have ever seen
is the 100 acres on the ranch of H.
w. Chase, the saw mill man, on the
south Fork of Flatwillow. George
Wright also has a large acreage OF
oats which will go fifty or sixty
bushels per acre.
"There is not nearly enough stock
down in that country to eat up the
feed. stockmen having been tempted
by the high prices of the past year
to sell off thousands of head of sheep
and cattle. Some of them, however,
are going to make an effort to get
hold of some stock to winter"

TRIED TO HANG HIMSELF.
Despondent Railroad Grader Is I'm
successful in Attempt.

Andy Olson, railroad grader en-
ployed at one of the Billings North
ern camps near Stanford, made a
desperate but unsuccessful attempt to
end his existence by the rope route
Saturday He went into the bunk
house and tying a strong rope around
his neck fastened the other end to
the topmost tier of hunks, then jump
ed off. hat he failed to land in
eternity is due. entirely to the op-
portune arrival of companions, who,
suspecting his design, kept close
watch on him.
Olson was brought to this city
Saturday evening by Deputy Sheriff
Whitcomb. His neck and face are
badly discolored as result of his
attempt at strangulation. 1t is be-
lieved that overindulgence in whiskey
has affected his mind A hearing will
be had into his sanity.

Big news FOR KENDALL
North MoCCasin Mining Company Reaches Agree.
ment With Kendall People Whereby Santiago
Mine viii be Started Up at Once.

"We will not delay another day in
getting action on the Santiago"
Those are the words of John A.
Drake, the millionaire New Yorker,
to a representative of the Democrat
this morning, just before taking his
departure for his home in the east.
Mr.. Drake, Senator Henry M. Rae,
who is president Of the North Moe
casin Mining company, and H. H.
Lang, superintendent and general
manager Of the Kendall mine. ar
rived in the city last night from
Spokane where conference was held
with Messrs. Finch and Campbell,
principal owners of the Kendall
mine
The result Of the conference is that
the work Of opening up the Santiago
will proceed Immediately and that
the ore which will be taken from this
wonderfully rich property will be
treated in the big Kendall mill.
1T is the best possible arrange
ment for all concerned" said Mr..
Drake to the Democrat. 1t will make
unnecessary the erection Of a plant
by the North Moccasin company, the
expenditure of at least 100000 which
would have to come from the pockets
Of the stockholders, and will obviate
the delay of FIVE or six months which
would be required to put a mill on
the ground.
'We will put a force of men to
work connecting up the Santiago mine
with the Kendall mill. To do this,
we will extend our workings to the
surface Of the hill on the side next
to the Kendall and build a three
thousand foot tramway across the
gulch to the mill This work will be
hurried along and by the time it is
