How A RaimBuilt A School House.
The latest eleotion returns receiv
ed on the Hill showed that Ool Es-
till was still pulling for the plnm.and
that Col. Guerry had made a mighty
mistake when lie advised men to
vote as they pray. We voted as
Mrs. Stocking prayed, and therefore
voted right. But isn’t it curious
what strange bed-fellows politics
make, anyhow? We notice that one
of the great daily papers—great in
its own egotistical estimation—and
some people still condemning the
ministers of the gospel who raised
their voices for prbhibition, and it iB
wonderful to note in what great fa
vor are the fellows who winked their
off eye on the corner, smiled, and
told the boys how it would be. We,
too, have been taught to believe that
the prohibition question should not
be mixed' with politics, and all we
folks who have boys to raise and
girls who will be so foolish as to
marry, had better keep an eye on
that fact, or those who vote as they
pray might open the flood-gates on
us. But all the rough,rugged places
have been smoothed over here by
the “balm of life” Bent us by the
happy candidate who wanted *us to
rejoice with him over his success.
He is elected right now when he
runs again; so said the boys as they
rejoiced.
Little Emory Langston was very
painfully hurt last week by being
kicked in the face by a mule. The
little fellow iB just four year old and
an expert rider, and had previously
handled the mule with ease, but
mules are like the other fellows’
trick—never safe to bet on.
We are ibformed that Mr. Smith
Dennard and Misd Maggie Jones
were married to-day at the home of
the bride, Hon. W. Till of Elko offi
ciating.
Messrs. J. F. Irby and Coleman
Hodge, two popular young gentle
men of Henderson, were on the Hill
this afternoon. ' .
Misses Mary and Louise Davis are
spending the week with friends near
Elko.
Ool. S.-D. Henderson, of Hender
son, passed over the Hill last week
enroute, by the people’s line, to ac
cept & position with the Botan
Fruit Company.
Mrs. L. F. Cater, Mrs. Ida Rog

June 22, 1902.
Here is an extract from a 1<
written by a country school teach
er in the far South. It shows a
spirit that is undaunted in the
face of difficulties and that will,
transform the educational condi
tions of our Southland. Some of
the country teachers might do
well to invite the trustees to visit
the schools, and then pray for
rain:
“I had there an attendance of
eighty or more pupils 4 but as I
was boarding at home, I found
time to pursue my studies as test
I could. One of my teachers
taught me Latin for a while
through fiiail. The term passed
away quite smoothly until small
pox made its appearance. I had
helped nurse two cases before the
doctors knew what it was. I did
not catch it after all. Because of
the epidemio my school closed the
third of May. It did not last long
however, so, by the first of June I
was again on my way back to
teach in the same county where I
taught the sn m mer befor e , but in
a different neighborhood. The
place of which. I now speak is
thirty miles from the railroad,and
when I arrived on the school
grounds and took a look at m y
school house, and at the child*®
as they gathered, I felt that this,
was indeed a needy neighbor
hood.
“This house has two doors whioh
open with a squeaking noise; and
no windows. It is built of logs
with the cracks left in between'.
I cannot describe the $oats. When
it rained, we moved around to the
dry places left in the house, to
avoid getting wet. The patrons
readily hgreed to. build a new
house, hut it was hard work get
them to begin. Finally one day
as I had the three trusteess at the
school house talking to them,
there came up a rain. They were
ashamed to move around as we
did to keep from getting wet, so
consequently they got a good
drenching, and I rather enjoyed
it. After ihis, a start was made
on the new house, and it will bo
ready for my use next summer.

The fishing season is about over
and I haven’t wet a hook nor eat

Though no great amount of
rain has fallen here sinoe April,
crops show up very well. Within
the past few days lice have taken

anything a little out of the ordi

—Mr. E. L. Dennard broght to
town Tuesday morning Some large
cotton stalks, upon the leaves of
which bugs resembling potato bugs
were feeding. We are told such
bugs have attacked, cotton near
Elko. Farmers should not delay,
but lookout for these pests and
apply the remedy promptly. Paris
green mixed with flour will kill
potato bugs, and it is said ootton
seed meat will drive them away.
