A shy young man Of Scotland, for
II years had wooel the lassie of his
heart. One night jamie, for that was
the young mans name, called to see
Jennie, and there was q terrible look
about his eyes. just as there is some
times with lovers when they've made
up their minds to pop the question.
And jamie came in and sat down by
the FIRE just as he had done every
Tuesday and Friday night for four
teen years; and they talked Of the
weather, and the cattle, and the crops,
and the stock market, l was going to
say-but no, they didn't talk about
that. And finally Jamie said:
"Jennie, I've known you for q long
time
Eyes, JAMIE" said she.
"And I've thought I'd always like
to know you, Jennie
"Ye-e-s-Jamie."
"So-that-when-"
"Yes-Jamie-yesl"
"Whtn we're dead We can lay our
bones together
The fool bad gone and bought a lot
in a graveyard, but Jennie was not
discouraged. She knew her man well
AFTER fourteen years she ought to
and so she said gently:
"Jamie!"
"Yes, Jennie"
"Don't you think 'twould be better
TO lay our bones together while were
yet alive,"

"Don't put too much confidence in
a lovers VOWS and sighs," said Mrs.
Partington to her niece; "let him tell
you that you have lips like strawber-
ries and cream, cheeks like a tarna-
ton, and eyes like an astorisk; but
such things oftener come from a ten
der head than a tender heart"

into galloping consumption and was
gradually decaying. He was unable

He dressed himself regularly, and
was determined to keep OIL his feet.
He went into the fields and woods,

Finally, an old wood-chopper met
him in the woods one day. The wood

Then the woodsman asked the sick

DEADwooD, d. T., April 81.
A mass convention of the people OF
the Black Hills in favor of a separate
territorial organization met here to-day.
Representatives from all parts Of the
Hills were present, and the meeting
was large, harmonious and enthusiast
tic.
An address to Congress, showing the
wrongs of settlers and the necessity of
a new territory was adopted unani-
mously, and measures taken to bring
the matter up at the first session of
Congress.
A resolution was adopted, accredit-
ing Hon. J. 3. Chaffee, U. S. senator
from Colorado, as representative to
urge our claims in the Sepate.
Thanks were voted to Delegates Ma
ginnis, of Montana, and Corlett, of
Wyoming, for favors.
The people are in earnest, and will
work till they win.

About this time the festive bedbug
peeps his head out of the ~crevices,
where he, she or it has spent the cold
weather, on a surveying expedition
prior to going upon the war-path. Ye
bug is now fiat as a pancake, but humor
him a few days and he will be as
rotund as an alderman. 1t has been
estimated that M of these insects will
devour three times his weight in blood
every twenty-four hours, and that a
healthy pair will promulgate 10000, 600
offspring in a single season. These
facts should stimulate the good house
wife to an discriminating crusade early
in the season, and in order to aid them
in their pious work, we give the follow
ing recipe, which we know to be sure
death:
Take good alcohol and put rs much
corrosive sublimate in it us will dis
solve; then take a small paint brush
and wash the bedsteads and all the
cracks and crevices with it about once
a week until they disappear. This
mixture is u rank poison, and should be
labeled and put where children cannot
get it.

Black Killers IN the St. Louis Fire.

A man named Jennings, who was in
st. Louis when the Southern hotel burn
ed, tells the following story:
II was passing the hotel when the
alarm was given, and at once rushed in
and assembled to the fifth floor, where
1 began waking up people and aiding
them to escape. Two men followed Inc
to a window which they raised and
looked out. Some men were trying to
raise Il ladder, but it would not reach.
The strangers bore a heavy valise be-
tween them. One said
We'll, we might as well have left
this dust in the Hills. We're out of
luck
Looking out they saw that at the
fourth window to the right a ladder had
been raised and the firemen were assist
ing the people to descend. All three
started in that direction. One of
the strangers said
We must leave our dust. There are
500 pounds of as clear dust as ever
came from the gulch at Deadwood, but
IT'S gone.'
They hurried on, and the speaker and
one of the men reached a room where
were huddled several persons about the
window, all eager to escape. The
other, u powerful man, stopped at the
door and said
Bill, why didn't we drop that gold
into the street? Pm going back to do
it, and disappeared. The two went
down, but the one who returned for the
gold was seen no more, and l did not see
the men again.

Gen. Crook and the Sioux.

Some complaint was made throughout
the country last year, because General
Crook did not assume operations more
directly offensive. A clamor was
raised because he did not seek out and
attack the main village of the confed-
Grated Sioux and Cheyennes, and at
one blow end the war. Persons who
INDUCED in this strain little understand
Indian character, still less do they
know of Indian fighting. The Indian,
like all savages, is q creature of i'm
pulse. When influenced by a momen-
t;ry enthusiasm, he will fight recklessly
and is capable of accomplishing as
much us the best civilized troops, being
perhaps as well armed as our cavalry.
Being without doubt better marksmen,
they are able from tueir villages to
meet a cavalry charge with impunity,
us was illustrated by the disastrous at
tempt of General Custer. Under these
circumstances every one can perceive
that for a troop Of cavalry to charge a
large Indian village, when unsupported
by infantry is mere folly. 1t is impos-
sible to determine the strength Of the
Indians within the village. 1t is equal
ly impossible to ascertain the nature of
the ground. The obstruction present
ed by the teepees will break the line, and
besides all this most generally a large
portion of a cavalry command consists
of poor riders who are easily thrown
into disorder. But the Indian does not
long retain his belligerent spirit. I'm
der difficulties, his passion for var
gives way to desire for peace. Like all
savage tribes, he is easily excited, like
I'LL savages also he is very easily dis
couraged. General Crook skillfully
availed himself of this characteristic,
and wore the Sioux out byallowing him
no rest. Instead of yielding to idle
clamor and precipitating a force con-
sisting in part of recruits from the
workshops and their fathers farms,
upon the rifles of ambushed Indians, he
pursued a more humane and far wiser
policy of wearing them out, and before
another winter comes the termination
of the Sioux val will justify his meas
ures. And the resulting peace, durable
in its character, attained with little ex-
pense of blood or treasure, will class
him who achieved it with General
Jackson, rs the most successful Indian
fighter of America.

D~eadwood's Ladies'.

For q new and remote camp such as
Deadwood is, the number and quality
of ladies is remarkable. True there
are many females Of another set, and
they ply their vocations with an assur-
ance and audacity that is seldom seen
elsewhere, but the proportion in which
they stand to the noble, virtuous women
of Deadwood will compare favorably
with the average city, and is certainly
very creditable to her.

by a rolling pin, and before the patient
realized his improved condition he was

A night or two ago a drunken mar
found his way into the upper story OF
the Carey block, and sitting at the head
of a stairway began bowling to be let
in. He seemed to have stopped at the
wrong door, as it were, for he called
on "Lize' to let him in, and loudly
cursed her for not doing so. He groan-
ed, and beloved, and shouted and
howled until every sleeper in the build
ing rose up TO see what was the matter.
The colored porter and one or two gen.
tlemen interviewed the fellow, and
after some expostu'ation induced him
to allow himself to be kicked down
stairs. He vas not injured, but the
fall sobered him so that he started off
to wake up that fool Lice"

The Colorado Striking Kinsrs.

The striking miners at Erie have con-
fined themselves for the last few days
to the business of trying TO intimidate
the men from working by threatening
all sorts Of vengeance upon them if they
mined coal for less than one dollar per
ton. They were willing that new min.
ers should work for 81 per day, but not
willing they should mine by the ton for
less than 81. Letters have been sent
to parties beautifully illustrated with
skulls, cross-bones and collins of enor-
nous dimensions. 1t was done, nc
doubt, in a playful mood, to make the
receivers mindful of their latter end.
All of the letters breath e the spirit OF
vengeance against any man who dares
to mine coal at less than 81 per ton, and
they swear that such coal shall never
be shipped.
