Cashier Horras Indicte d.

The U. s. grand jury at Deadwood
found % indictments against Geo. D.
Horras, cashier of the defunct Hot
Springs Natl. Bank for embezzlement.
He appeared there under his former
bonds and plead not guilty to the in.
dictments. His bail was fixed at
$4,000. The Pioneer-T Times says that
he had not yet been able to obtain
bondsmen and was confined in the
county Jail. that "there is some doubt
expressed about his ability to
secure bail, as it is understood his
father, who is reputed to be man of
considerable wealth, has deserted him
and he is left on his own resources to
secure bondsmen."
Mrs. Horras was also in Deadwood.
Owing to his inability to obtain
counsel for this term of court the case
was continued to the September term.
The large number of witnesses from
this place who have been sojourning
at Deadwood consequently returned
Tuesday evening.
LATER-A telegram from Deadwood
to the Sioux City papers Wednesday
says that Horras has plead guilty
to three counts in the indictments. but
this report is somewhat discredited
here.

Many of the business men managed
to save portion of their stock, but
the loss sustained by each will be at
least half the value carried. At this
time 1t is impossible to ascertain true
estimate Of the total loss, but it IL
thought it will reach the $50, 600.

In the Bloom of Junetime.

The month of brides and sweet girl
graduates is nearly here, and that is
when the world is really younger. At
graduation and marriage the heart
beats high. Then is when it is fullest
of joy and hope and when life has red
ribbons tied on it, when the sky is
bluest and when the landscape is fair
est. And it is when the birds sing
sweetest and the winds blow softest
and flowers are most fragrant. No
wonder the poets find their greatest
inspiration then. Who wouldn't like
to graduate or be or get bride in
June?-Fremont, Neb., Tribune.

ADMINISTRATION BUILDING OF NATIONAL SANITARIUM,
BUILT OF HOT SPRINGS STONE.
4 Shame and Disgrace

The Deadwood public building is
conceded by all who have seen it to be
the best building in the state. Through
the efforts of Kittredge, Martin and
Burke it was built wholly of native
stone, and native material wherever
possible. The stone was quarried in
Fall River county South Dakota, ship
ped to Deadwood in the rough, cut and
dressed on the ground by local labor.
Supervising Architect Knox of the
treasury department passing upon the
stone pronounced it superior to the
Bedford, Indiana, stone, the material
which Crawford Is using for the state
capitol building.
Secretary Shaw inspected the stone
at the quarry in 1903 and insisted
that the native stone be used for the
Deadwood building, saying in his
Surt manner, "There is no better
As5ne anywhere"
Secretary Wilson visited the quar-
ries in 1905 and said: "It is the most
beautiful building stone I have ever
seem"
The National Sanitarium building
located at Hot Springs, South Dakota,
I is also, through the efforts of Kilt
redRe, Martin and Burke, built of
South Dakota stone.
Two years ago Coe I. Crawford said:
sit would be shame and disgrace to
build the state capitol Of any but
South Dakota material" and pledged
the voters that il elected governor the
capitol would be built of South Dako-
to stone.
Now Crawford is BUILDING THE
CAPITOL OF STONE QUARRIED
z IN INDIANA AND CUT IN MINNIE.
. APOLIS. The amount of money the
state will have to pay Crawford's
Friends, the railroads. for hauling this
atone from Indiana ao Minneapolis
Hot Springs weekly star. (Hot Springs, S.D.) 1892-1917, 1908-05-29

and from there to Pierre, will nearly
equal the cost of the Deadwood build
ing.
Over seventy per cent of the cost of
the Deadwood building and of the
national sanitarium at Hot Springs
was for labor, all expended in the
state.
The quarries of Minnehaha and Fall
River counties when worked to their
capacity furnish market for large
share of the farm produce of those re-
spective counties.
Who gets the lions share of the
100000, to be spent for the capitol
building at Pierre? First, the Chicago
& Northwestern railroad and its con-
Meeting lines for hauling the stone
from Bedford, Indiana; second, the la
borers in the quarries at Bedford, In
diana; third, the quarry owners at
Bedford, Indiana; and fourth, the
stone dressers at Minneapolis, Min
nesota.
Even the lime we are told comes
from Minnesota, although the Black
Hills have the largest lime stone de.
posits in the west.
Is there then no South Dakota ma
terial to be used in this building?
Yes indeed. the Missouri river fur
niahea tho sand land waknr I and IL
takes lot of sand to build q South
Dakota capitol building out of Bed
ford, Indiana, stone. If South Dako-
ia stone had been used in part in the
capitol, 100 stone cutters could be
busy here instead of at st. Paul, cut
ting Indiana stone. Mr.. Crawford
made his former campaign on the
state stone issue-Pioneer-T Times.

the W. r. c., assisted by the school

this service the procession will be

proceed to the Soldiers Home cemetery
where appropriate services will be con-
Quoted and graves decorated, which
will conclude the forenoon services.

Quoted by Silas A. Strickland Post G..

That sweetly solemn day, so dear to
every patriotic citizen, and so doubly
dear to the valiant man whose loyal
service of more than two score years
ago led to its inception, has now be-
come an institution of the land as
firmly rooted and immovable as In
dependence Day itself. And we'll it.
should be, for in the whole wide worlds
history no more beautiful sentiment
is more generally and appropriately
Expressed than is this fidelity of the
loyal living to the memory of the 10y
al dead. s..
The Grand ;sArmy of the Republic
and the Womna g,Relief Corps, have
been pleased and highly gratified with
the interest manifested by SO many of
our patriotic citizens in the past, not
only in their attendance upon the
services of the day, but in discouraging
all games and amusements which de-
tract and is not in harmony with the
true spirit and meaning of the day.
All our citizens not only of the city
of Hot Springs, but surrounding count
ry, are most cordially invited and urg-
ed to join with us in all these services
and assist in making this the grandest
and most successful of all the past.
| Let all our citizens that have horse
or team of horses, autos or conveyance
es of any kind. see to it that they are
in the procession, and if you can't go
yourself let your neighbors or friends
take your rig, and our friends in the
country, come in early and if you
haven't carriages bring your farm
wagons Lots of us old soldiers can't
march as we did forty five years ago.
We would just like to ride with you
to the cemeteries. Come everybody,
old men and women, young men and
maidens, boys and girls, and Spanish
American Soldiers, and make this
great day never to be forgotten. More
old Soldiers will probably be in line
than will ever assemble in Hot Springs
on Memorial Day. We are rapidly
passing away; this will be the last
Memorial Day for many of us.
