whose term of Office will soon
expire, will locate at Watauga,
where Mrs. Doherty and himself
have purchased the controlling
stock in the Watuaga State Bank.
Mr.. Doherty will be made cash
ier Of that institution. His well
known business ability and
energy coupled with a wide ac-
quaintance. are ample assurance
for the success of that institu-
ton. Bill" as he is familiarly
known here. will be missed by
his multitude of Lennon friends
who have grown to look. upon
him as a permanent fixture
among us. He has always been
identified with every movement
for the betterment of Lennon
and the upbuilding of this
country, not simply a passive
supporter. a real live hustling
kind, always doing his share and
many times the share of others
who should have been in the
lead. For those reasons we are
sorry to see "Bill' leave Lem
mon but we are glad that he is
locating so near. his influence
will still be in evidence for the
whole country. We wish them
all success in their new home.

badly bound for the Twin Cities.
The question as to whether or
not Weinginger and Mathews
were one and the same person
has not been determined.
Deputy Warden Joe Hirst, of
Deer Lodge penitentairy, visited
Lennon on Saturday, to view
the remains of Weiningea and
was positive that he was not the
William McAvoy," whose alias
William Mathews" and who
was released from that place in
May, of last year, just pricr to
the Great Northern train rob-
berry. 1t can not be said tho,
that Weininger did not have an
alias, in fact many Of them, and
it is entirely probable that
Mathews might have been one.
Up to the time he was arrested
in Butte and made his escape,
he had not been seen there for
about eight months. The des-
perate methods he employed to
get away are indicative in
themselves.
1t was learned from Deputy
Sheriff Keller that Weininger's
home was formerly in Flat River,
Missouri, so the authorities here
telepraphed there to locate rela-
tives. N. L. Weininger, father
of the deao man, responded to
the effect that this county would
have to pay burial expenses.
Since the law provides that the
bodies of such people may be
turned over to the State Medical
School, the authorities shipped
the remains of Weininger to
Vermillion on last Tuesday
evening.
Chief of Police Axtell, who
was wounded in the gun fight
with Weininger. is recovering
nicely and will soon be fit for
duty once more.

MEXICANS LOVE AMERICANS
Charge At Washington Says His Pso-
pie viii Not Fight Us.

Washington. April 22.-"Huerta or
anyone else will have a difficult time
raising an army to fight the United
States Why. the great rank and file]
OF my people love you Americans as
brothers, and bearing arms against,
you is the last thing we are consider !
ing"
This is the remarkable statement
made by Charge d'Affaires Algara, now
at the head OF the Mexican embassy
In Washington Algara was asked
how he thought his people were view
ing the impending hostilities between
their country and the land OF the
Stars and Stripes.
The one great Characteristic OF
Americans. believed in implicitly by
my people" said Senor Algara. is
their sense OF justice.
They are feeling no animosity, no
enthusiasm for war because OF this
Tampico incident This Is because
they look upon 1t as a diplomatic mat
ter and feel assured that the Ameri-
cans will settle 1t Justly. They rely
on them not even to infringe upon
the rights of Mexico
Il am sure 1t will take something
more than is yet in the air to bring
about in Mexico what Americans call
the psychological moment for war"

Miss Maria neSbitt
Passes Away
Dies At Home OF Nephew,
William Nesbitt

Miss Maria Nesbitt, of this
city, died last Wednesday morn
ing at 1:20 o'clock at the home
of her nephew, William Nesbitt.
Deceased was 80 years and 5
months of age. She suffered a
stroke of paralysis about three
or four weeks ago, since which
time she has failed rapidly.
Beginning with last Saturday
m orning she began to loose
consciousness in which condition
she was at the time death came.
The funeral services were held
this afternoon at 2 o'clock from
the Nesbitt home, Rev. Martin
Hyink, of the Presbyterian
church officiating, the deceased
having been a member of the
Presbyterian church all her life.
Miss Maria Nesbitt was born
at Elders Ridge, Pa, .on Nov.
22nd, 1881. Her mother died
when she was 10 years of age
leaving four children of which
she was the second, and an
invalid father. The cares of the
family fell largely upon the
shoulders of the deceased. She
secured a very good education
and took up teaching as a pro-
fession, which she followed for
nearly so years, 30 of which she
taught in the schools of Indiana,
Pa, where she and her brothers
made their home. When the
war of the rebellion broke out
she gave up teaching and became
an army nurse. Learning that
her brother, Capt. J. S. Nesbitt,
had been seriously injured at the
battle of Cold Harbor, she spent
several days searching or
him before he was finally located
off the coast of Maryland in a
ship. She had the . in
jured brother removed to their
home in Indiana, Pa, where
she continued to teach for sever
al years. Capt. Nesbitt was the
father of William Nesbitt of this
city.
In 1883, Miss Nesbitt came to
county, S. D., in
with w. H. Nesbitt and
one other brother, and while re-
siding there proved up a claim
IN the early days. Later Capt.
Nesbitt and wife and the de-
ceased removed to Idaho where
The Captain died from exposure
IN a storm about ten years ago.
About two years ago the widow |
lied and after the affairs of the
family had been settled up Miss !
