ED In BLACK HILLS PROPERTY
AT TIME OF DEATH.

Lcal', Oct. 26.-H. @. Wong, son
of Wing Tsue, received word of the
death of his father in China.
Two years ago last January, while
attending a meeting of the Society
of Black Hills Pioneers of which he
was an honored member, Wing Tsue
suffered a stroke paralysis, and for
a time his life was despaired of. He
rallied from the attack after weeks
of attention, and regained the use of
his limbs and his faculties, but never
his strength
He left Deadwood two years ago
for China, making arrangements be-
fore leaving to pass the remainder
of his days in his native land, realiz-
ing that his strength would never per-
nit him to make the return journey
to the United States. His sons and
daughters before he left for China
had been provided for, his daughters
educated, and all of his sons estab-
lished in business or some profession,
his youngest two sons being univers-
ity graduates with prospects for
bright futures.
Wing Tsue came to the Black Hills
with the earliest of gold hunters, set
| Ting first in Custer, but leaving that
camp for Deadwood gulch In 1875
locatin where the city of Deadwood
now stands, opening up business.
there as soon as il was possible to do
so, and continuing it until the time
of his departure for the Orient. He
was a man of many accomplishments,
shrewd in business and patriotic ci-
tizen of his adopted country.
He had many associates among
the whites of the Hills, and with
them engaged in numerous mining
enterprises, and at the time OF his
death was interested heavily in min
ing ground here, and real estate.

Selling Stored Grain

Aberdeen, Oct 26.-J. B. Fisher,
of Herreid, has been tried and found
guilty of disposing of stored grain
and failing to take care of the stor-
age tickets by a Campbell county
jury at Mound City.
This case has attracted wide inter-
est. as it is said that it will set new
precedent among grain buyers. Fish
er was sentenced to serve a term OF
IS months at hard labor in the state
penitentiary at Sioux Falls by Judge
Bottum, of Faulkton.
Fisher and another man named Oh
son were engaged In the grain busi-
ness and failed, being unable to make
good on storage tickets they had IS
sued to farmers. The Interstate
Surety company, Of Redfield, had IS
sued a warehouse bond for the firm
and when called upon to make good
for the stored grain, had a warrant
issued for the pair.

sons.
In Fargo, streetcar left the track

Mimi, the Dilworth streetcar left the
tracks, having no electrical momen-
tum after stopping. Barometric pres
