Black Hills Notes and News,

A species Of typhoid fever, called
mountain fever, prevails in the Hills.
Black Hills people pay 20 cts: per lb;
for California potatoes. One dollar will
buy six lbs. at wholesale. Bismarck has
enough surplus potatoes this year to sup
ply the Hills. .
Lumber is sold in the Hills at $3.50.
Deadwood has no insurance agent or
lightning rod man.
The Pioneer says newspaper will be
established in Pennington county at an
early day.
The Black Hills do not produce mos
quitoes, but the flies are terror. No
sleep after daylight.
The Pioneer claims for the Black Hills
the largest amount Of gold bearing
quartz in the world. No country has
rock so easily worked, and, therefore, in
none is quartz mining so profitable
The Rapid Creek mines are looking
up. Burleigh's success in the dry mines
of Castle Creek add confidence.
The Deadwood Pioneer says it cost
Dakota S3,5oo to send two lots of prison.
ers, one from Bismarck and the other
from Deadweod to the penitentiary at Fl.
Madison, Iowa.
The Pioneer says 10 stamps are now
engaged in crushing ore at Central City.
This number will be doubled within the
next 90 days.
The Champion says several cases Of
insanity have been developed in the
Black Hills lately among disappointed
gold seekers.
When in the Black Hills recently, the
writer noticed many specimens Of, rocks
bearing perfect photographs OF trees,

Another Quartz Miner.

Sam Lawrence, of Minneapolis, has
returned from the Hills enroute for
Chicago to purchase stamp mill, hav-
ing secured half interest in one Of the
best mines (prospectively) at Lead City
the Enterprise which he proposes to
develope at onces His example will, no
doubt, be followed by other Minneapo-
lis lumbermen who are looking for new
fields. Sam is one of Minnesota's most
successful operators, and we congratu-
late him on his good fortune as we'll as
on his discretion. Speaking Of the Bis
marck Stage Line, Lawrence says he
never saw better equipped outfit or
more gentleman!y men in charge, and
he does not wonder that majority OF
those who travel TO and from the Hills
prefer this ruute.

A Graceful Tribute.

On Tuesday evening, at Fort Lincoln,
just after tattoo had sounded, and the
garrison had seemingly gone to sleep,
strains of most delightful music were
heard surrounding the cottage occupied
by Mr.. George Harmon.
The shadow of Mr.. Harmon's figure
could be seen at the time on his window
curtains, as he was quietly packing his
trunks to leave in the early morning for
the East to recruit his health, which for
months has been seriously impaired.
Mr.. Harmon, after recovering from his
surprise at hearing such unusual sounds
at that hour, opened his hosPitable door
to investigate, and was promptly inform-
ed that the whole 9TH Cavalry band to-
gether with few Of his many friends,
had assembled to do him honor and offer
him serenade on hearing of his nten :
ton to leave in the morning to visit the
East.
The gathering then accepted Mr.. Har-
mons Invitation to enter, and each in
turn was cordially welcomed.
Refreshments, previously ordered by
the gentlemen having the matter in
hand, then arrived. and the succeeding
two hours were delightfully."- spent in list
ening to the fine selection of music given
and to the flow of such conversation as is
only engendered by spontaneous desire
on the part of friends to make a man
happy. After those present had given
Mr.. Harmon every evidence of their sim
cerity in wishing his early return to Fl.
Lincoln, with health restored, they took
their leave. There was something mex
pressibly cordial about the affair that
might we'll mark it; although small
matter in itself-as a clear indication
that the merits ola high minded and
worthy gentleman will not fail to be re-
cognized wherever his lot may be cast.
We understand that it is the purpose of
Mr.. Harmon togo to Louisville, KY,
and remain perhaps month, from thence
he will 60 to Florida to spend the COM
ing winter. The hearty good wishes Of
all who know him will accompany him,
and warm welcome awaits him on his
return.
