D.—Day after I day goes by here in this crossroads of the old west and nary a man falls, bullet sieved, in his own gore. î The brick high school outshadows J the biggest wooden saloon.

Wild Bill Hickok and "Calamity Jane," asleep in their hill cemetery, wouldn't know the town they helped make famous —or infamous. I I Ban On Gambling , . . . . Its present attack of civic virtue —gambling was banned two years ago—is deplored by some of Dead wood's citizenry. But 78-year-old D. M. McGahey, curator of the Ad ams memorial hall, feels that Dead wood's flamboyant characters — Hickok, "Deadwook Dick," and "Ca-1 lamity Jane," army scout and lady tosspot— have had entirely too much ' attention. ! He calls them "the long hairs" and j grudgingly keeps a case of their j relics in the museum only out of deference to public interest. In the case is "the dead man's hand"— ace and eight of spades, ace and eight of clubs and queen of hearts— held by "Wild Bill" when the fron tiersman, a man with 36 notches on his guns, was ventilated through the back by Jack McCall in the No. 10 ■ sa ] oon _ j "Wild Bill Hickok was never any- j - ! I I ! thing but a gambler here," grum bled McGahey. "As for Calamity Jane, the best you can say for her is that she never did anyone any harm except herself. Dick Was a Fool "Deadwood Dick—or at least one of the four men who called them selves that—was the dumbest fool that ever came over the pike," snorted McGahey. "He didn't know which end of a gun to hold away from him when he pulled the trig ger. "What did these long hair celebri ties ever do for the country? People should pay more honor to the real pioneers who built up the west. Men like W. E. Adams, who came here in 1877, with a team of mules and a load of hardware and went , into business. _ Adams, who died in 1934, left $100,- ; 000 to establish the museum. ! But Wild Bill and Calamity Jane, j whatever their morals when alive, ! still draw hundreds of thousands of j amorous lady are buried in adjoin ing graves—which is closer than Hickok cared to be to her during his lifetime. "Some people try to make out that those two long hairs were in love," grumbled McGahey, "but Wild Bill couldn't see her."

Hobart Black was dismissed by John Walters, trustee of the Mat thews high school. Walters said Black frequently gave pupils "the hot foot." He charged that this "careless use of fire in the classroom" en dangered pupils' lives. He accused Black, who also served as a grade school principal, of in subordination and refusing to carry out orders. The pupils paraded through the streets with placards demanding | Black's reinstatement. Walters said Black was "very 1 popular with the kids." But he con- 1 tended Black was "too lax." !
