How to Smoke Tobacco.

mode of smoking, direct contact of tho
tobacco with the mucous sbuccalis-mucous

an amber. ivory. or enameled porcelain

them, portions of cigars that have been
distinguished, together with the system Of
blackened and juicy pipes, must he avoid
ed, as it is the surest way of beiug affect
ed by nicotine. The cigarette is prefera-
ble, by reason of its slight quansitative
importance and the paper which interferes
with the contact of its contents with tho
buccal mucous membrane; but to realize
all the desiderata in this case it would be
necessary to have the "papelito'' msde of
flax thread. and to abstain from the
practice-which has become so universal
of retaining the smoke at the back Of

Are the Black Hills a New

From living evidence along Dead dwoot

the Hills country was many years age
prospectcd and mired, by skilled labor
In many places along these gulches WI
have convincing evidence that others have
taken the rich harvest of gold, and whal
seem valuable and paying diygings now,
are only tailings. But what became OF
that party who worked these same placer
mines, many years ago, remains only for
us to conjecture. The tall pines are now
standing upon the ground they sIuiced,
and probably stand, too. as a monument
over their graves. We trace their ira:
through the mountains, a wagon-chain
still bangles from lofty pine. imDedded
by years of growth in its trunk, where
perhaps some carly explorer chained his
horse, or OK, and both together they
perlsh'd. Then along through White
wood district are found hewed pine logs,
thirty feet i'll ltngtb, overgrown by pines
and sapplings, showing by the shot and
ard bullets that penetrated some of these
tlmbers, that Fl 2ht ensued and the prob~
ability is that the party was massacred
Then slulce boxes are found. buried from
six to eight feet under the earth, showing.
by stages of decay, That twenty or thirty
years have elapsed since they were built,
and that rains and storms have buried
them beneath the earth's surface.
AT Golden Run there is mine of rich
ore. which had been cut into, many years
ago. The timbers in the cut show marks
|of terrible seige, undoubtedly with the
Indians, assailng the miners while ct
work. The timbers show marks of many
years. standing, and in several places
they are perforated with shot and bullets
These, and many oih'r such Indications
prove conclusivcly that we are really in
an old mining camp.
Again, in the heart of Dead wood, where
thrived the saplings and the sturdy ines.
was unearthed the other d Y, grindstonc

Mortoa s saloon a p ,rty of men were at
work excayating for cellar, or UNDER

reached the depth of about six feet below
the Ievc. surface, they Came to bedrock.
upon which they found gricdstone OF
native rock, Is inches in diameter. and
three inches in thickness, The center bar
was in part preserved, being impregnatei
with mineral substance. On exposing the
stone to the il fluence of the atmosphere,
it fell into two piecrs, the stone splitting
lengthw'se with the grain.
With these facts before us. we are led
to conclude that the Hills have, many
years previous to our coming, been pros
pected for gold. and the pioneers of that
day have long since perish"d.
