Later and more precise information in regard
to the IN neral resources OF the Black Hills
country fails to confirm the glowing stories at
first set StOst concerning the extraordinarily
rich and accessible gold deposits OF that tabled
region The opinion Of the biologists who
accompanied the expedition is not encouraging
to the gold seeker, and it is safe to assume that
those who 60 there in search OF the precious
metal will be grIevously disappointed in their
search, II they do not have even more serious
cause for regret. The mining " experts" who
gave such captivating accounts Of the find are
speculative frontiersmen whose whole success

these accounts are kept alive now only BY the

exploration by and By may show deposits worth
working, but this is the sum Of the matter Ar
