aooD ROADS LEcrU An.

On Monday evening Of this week Mrs.
K. J. Fenton of Washington, D. c., de
livered her lecture on the subject of
"Good Roads," in the Gariock Opera
House.
Mrs. Fenton was somewhat at a dis
advantage, as her lecture is supposed to
be illustrated with views of roads
and scenes from different parts OF the
country, but having no lantern at this
time, she was obliged to dispense with
this part of her program and give her
talk without the aid ofpictures.
A good sized audience gathered at the
Opera House to hear Mrs. Fenton, and
while they were very sorry to miss the
pictures and her regular lecture, yet
they enjoyed her talk, which was very
interesting and instructive. The ad-
vantag es of good roads we're shown to
cover more phases Of life than most
people ever imagined. She also inform
ed the people of Custer that the Depart
ment of Public Roads was willing and
anxious to serve the people in every
part of the U. S. wherever they were
trying to solve the proposition of a
better class of roads.
Mrs. Fenton was taken by way Of
Sylvan Lake to Hill City Tuesday morn.
ing and shown some of the scenery in
this part of the Hills. She expressed
herself as being more than delighted
with her trip and said that she was
surely going to visit Sylvan Lake and
Custer again, and during the warmer
months when she could have time to see
more of their grandeur and beauty.

PR0WLERS ARRESTED
For Breaking Into Government Building
Charged With Taking Axes Used
For Fighting Fire.

Forest Supervisor R. P. lines and
Forest Ranger w. A. Poe arrived in
Deadwood Monday with w. A..
Postlethwaite and L. A. Hendershot,
who were arrested on November ID at
Oreville, s. D., charged with the ofense
of breaking into government tool
house and removing therefrom two axes
and canteen. They were taken before
United States Commissioner Moore.
They waived examination and both
plead guilty. Bond was fixed at $500,
in default of which they were committed
to the Lawrence county Jail to await
the next term of court in May.
Postlethwaite and Hendershot have
been in the vicinity of Oreville, for the
past six or eight weeks working on the
section. 1t is understood that they
spent considerable portion of their
time at night prowling about the coun-
try, ransacking cabins and purloining
various small articles which they could
pick up around the country. 1t is
known that they entered prospector's
cabin near Hill City and stole some
dishes, clothing and giant powder.
The latter part of October the Custer
school house was entered by these men,
who stole Professor Kess' camera and a
number of other small items that they
could find within the building. Post
lethwaite has travelled extensively
through the west. He claims that his
home sin Val Buren,, Arkansas, but
he has spent considerable portion of
his time in Kansas, Texas, Iowa and
North Dakota for the past 10 years
Hendershot is young man who it is
thought has simply fallen into bad
company. He claims that his home is
in Unionyille, Mo.
While the articles stolen from the
government are of no great value, it is
considered that it is we'll for the COM
munity in which these men haye been
residing recently that the government
officials apprehended them and have
taken them into custody. The forest
service has many thousand dollars
worth of fire fighting tools cached at
various points throughout the national
forests, for the purpose of protecting
their timber and peoples homes from
destruction by fire. 1t is evident from
the action taken in this case that 1t is
not the intention of the department to
have them stolen, as they are put there
for use by anyone in case of fire.
