he occupies. Seth does not deserve 10
be classed among the politicians, how
ever, but among the business men of
the Hills, for he is old business where
ever you find him, whether in the dis
charge of official duties or as an active
go-ahead merchant.
B. D. JENN1NG,
Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue,
is also an official who does not deserve
to bs classed with the politicians. The
funds entrusted to him, as the Dead
wood Champion truly remarks, will not
be spent in riotous living or lost at
dog fight. We regret that We did not
have time to call on Doc. At his pleasant
home and make the acquaintance Of his
interesting lady.

We met many old asquaintanees in
the Hills, among them .-,-=.
BROWNING AND wR1NGIosE
of Bismarck, the first merchants at
Deadwood. TO say that they have
lens we'll does not express tho idea.
They have "cleaned up" not less than
tvsnty thousand dollars over and above
expenses during the past year and a
half. The Bismarck boys generally
got left by settling at Rapid and Crook
City, both destined to be good towns,
but at present, outside of the rich min
ing region. j. D. Wakeman, however,
has made some money. Ed. Donahue
seems to be well fixed. E. I. Winston
has no cause to complain, and f. Il.
Collins has some of the best mining
property in the Hills, property that
will certainly make him very wealthy.
T. G. JONES
of Bismarck, is located at Lead City,
and has extensive mining interests.
If Jones IS not millionaire in fact,
as he now is in the view of SONS Of bis
sanguine friends, it will be because
providence interferes to defeat the plans
of q good man, and such interference IS
not likely to occur. "
In q former letter we mentioned DR..
Newson. Through him we made the
acquaintance Of <sz @'
CAPT. MCHENRY
who is certainly character of the most
interesting kind, but one needs to see
him to appreciate him. Pen can not
describe his peculiarities; it would take
q RAYMOND to do it; but all men appre-
ciate him for bis hospitality and worth.
He has rich leads and will be rich.
g. G. WILLIAMS,
Of Central City, is also enc Of the pro-
spective millionaires of theHills, and is
one who has heart that it does not
require a lever to move. Associated
with him is a young North Carolinian
named Hall, who, remembering the in
fuence of home is gentleman under all
circumstances.
MEssRs. WILLIAMS AND DEARBORN,
two Minneapolis boys, are located at
Central City, and the miners who have
made their acquaintance have learned to
respect them for their square dealing
and to admire their quiet ways. The
writer is under obligation to them and
to many others for favors extended.
HON. BAILEY MADISON,
whom we met on the checkered carpet
ton years ago and with whom We have
spent many pleasant hours since in the
lodge room, at the mechanics bench
and in legislative halls, is also at Cen.
tral City and is a leading architect and
builder.
HON. HENRY HILL,
one of Gods noblemen, we met at Leads
and were glad to learn that he was deep
in quartz and has several rich leads.
He deserves thousands with which to
operate. Men like Henry Hill deserve
all the fayors that Fortune can bestow.
DEADW0OD
is fortunate in its newspapers and in
its hotels. It has three daily pape1s,
the Pioneer, Times and Champion, and
numerous hotels.
THE PIONEER
is the oldest paper in the Hills. It was
shipped to Custer City in the winter of
1876 and 6 by Mr.. A. W. Aerrick, an
excellent printer and an agreeable gen
tleman. who went with the rush fol-
lowing the reports from Gordon's par
ty. But for some cause the paper did
not make its appearance during the
winter. In the mean time the writer,
who had taken lively interest in the
Black Hills having sent correspon-
dent with Custer's expedition in 1874,
and expended great deal Of money for
this and other purposes In connection
with the Hills, purchased an outfit and
intended to go to the Hills with it but
for domestic reasons, coupled his Of
fee with one owned by friend who
went to the Hills instead. The friend
refused the bonus offered by Deadwood
