Nearly . ninety teachers hav <

The work is progressing splendid
II.v under the direction of Prof.
Gregory. This institution , main
tained by the state , is proving in-
valuable to the educational inter-
ests of this part of the state , foi
it is fitting teachers for the wort

Emerson Powers , an old resi-
dent of this county , committed
suicide last Saturday in a hotel at
Dead wood , S. D. , by cutting his
throat from ear to ear. For sev-
eral years , due to financial losses ,
he had been despondent and brood-
ed , over alleged wrongs. His fami
ly I . .noticed his condition and en-
deavored . in every way to help him
- '
to forget ' , but ; as time passed his
mind : . seemeB to be growing weak-
er. . Some time ago he sent _ his
wife and younger children down
to Sparks where they vwere to visit
witb Telatives. About ten days
ago he was here and visited with
them for several days , returning
to the Hills where he had a good
position. The community was
startled Saturday on receiving the
sad news and his wife and \ her
brother , Charles Hudson , immedi
ately went up to Deadwood. The
body was brought here for burial
and interment made in Mt. Hope
cemetery on Monday. TIlE DEMO
CRAT extends sympathy to the
bereaved relatives and fnends.
A. Thompson is going to sell out
his stock and go out of the ranch
business. He has been here on
his ranch since the country was
new and the neighbors far , apart.
At first he had but a homestead or
a tree claim but he stayed here
and has added a few quarter sec-
tions until he now owns a fine
ranch op Schlagel creek. But ,
he ' s growing okl , and with his
wife expects to go out to Idaho
and retire from business. He
says it's not on account of failing
health , for he feels as good as he
ever did , but he wants to quit and
ae's got enough to quit with and
live comfortably the remainder of
his days and accumulate a little as ; ;
he goes from now on without dig
ging around in the snow to find a
hay stack while the cattle are bel-
lowing for' feed , and he's going to
quit and turn the ranch over to
his son , Robert , whcr will look
well to the property and run his
own herd upon the range. Mr.
Thompson's sale is advertised in
this paper and people wanting fine
cattle and horses and get them in
, good ] condition , acclimated and
well bred can make more out of
his herd than on a lot of southern
cattle four times the number. Go .
to his/sale and see for yourself
what he has to offer. . You'll get
a free lunch at noon ancf something
to . eat if you have to stay longer.
