The New EI Dorado.
From the Omaha (Neb.) Republic

From the Omaha (NeD.) hepuOncan.l
The Black Hills fever is raging vio-
lently in this city, and the exodus to
the Centennial Ell Dorado has COM
menced. From every quarter come
news that thus early IN the season
men are beginning to pour into the
Hills by hundreds. Gentlemen,
principally responsible and disinter-
ested army officers, who have recent
" arrived here from Fort Laramie,
say that they passed numerous par
ties on their way up from Cheyenne.
Thousands more from every quarter
of this country will go into the Hills
this spring. We have no desire to
mislead any one on this subject
From the most reliable information
at our command, we believe that men
who are willing to work and endure
the continual hardships of miners
life, can make more money from their
labor than they can in the city, and
for some fortunate few large fortunes
are to be found in that land OF gold.

The Lucky Girl Will Get Him.
IN -, r~...o,, C;t,, Trihune

During leap year the girl who
counts all the gray horses she sees
until she has got up to hundred
will be married within a year, to the
first gentleman with whom she
shakes hands after counting the one
bnndredth horse. Every girl in the
citv carries a memorandum book,
that she may be sure to keep a cor
rect record. One has already twen-
ty-six, another eleven, and another,
who only began yesterday, has seven.
If somebody would bring a drove OF
a hundred gray horses to town to-
day, what a shaking of hands would
take place to morrow.

OUR ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Editors OF the Register:


y few days ago the Republican Exec,
utIvc Committee mctand resolved to mold
two nominating convention some 70 select
suitable delegates for the State Conven.
ton and the other for choosing delegates
t represent Marshall county in the Gin

pointed and after considerable discussion
the committee adjourned without deter
mining the time when the above conven-
ton should be held,
Quite a number of the Republican
party are DESTROYS Of serving the county

most prominent of the aspirants may be
named Messrs. VIM. ii. Showacre, w. IL.

of town. 1t was placed in position yes
tcrday, and the machinery as it arrived
Is at once assigned its proper place. The
Superintendent expects to find employ
ment In a short time for one hundred
bands-hope the expectation may not
prove fallacious.
The rolling mill has suspended for
short time. A sale of fifty thousand sets
of hoops was effected recently. A few
days after the sale was made a Pittsburgh
firm offered the same kind of reduced
price. Mr., NJ. c. Kelly has been ap-
pointed travelling agent for the mill and

HOGS.

HOGS.
Persons from the Eastern States who
have visited friends in our county have
expressed great surprise at finding here
such improved breeds of hogs, which
they say will compare favorably with
those in any of the older States. Farm
ers here are giving more attention than
formerly to raising hogs. and they have
wisely concluded that the best breeds
are the most profitable. That we have
such an improved stock of hogs, and
that the demand for them il increasing,
is due more to Mr.. Robt. Cook than
any one else. He introduced into our
county as fine Poland China hogs as can
be found in any State, and by persistent
advertising and exhibiting them at fairs
has convinced farmers that it pays to
raise hogs that can be fattened at any
age and brought to any desired weight
up to 1900 pounds. Last Saturday Mr..
Cook hauled to town and weighed one
of his big hogs which he is fattening,
and it clipped the beam" at S75. He
feels sure that he can easily make it
weigh 300 pounds more. This hog will
be on exhibition at our county fair,
which commences September 10Th and
continues four days.
