CUSTER r

The pioneer town fthe Hills IS eituat-
cd in the southern portion about twelve
or fifteen miles from the foothills and
its natural advantages are acknowledged
by all rs exceling oil Others either in
the mining or agricultural districts.
Located IN q valley ten or twelve miles
long by one mile in width, il is easily
accessible 20 railroads either from the
est, ror;h or west. and is The cnly town
in the ii Is tiat could he tapped by a
road running N m east and west line,
from either Pierre or Chamberlain. To
ta; any other town. d rod, having as its
oiie tive point the Yellowstone park or
the Pacific coast, would have to make a
de;ou: from 100 , 200 miles. Already
surveys have been run ~ v~ariors roads
having this point in view. Thus situat-
ell il draws 20 - support the business
Of the mining districts OF the Southern
IIi!la aud also that OF the farming and
tending for sixty miles to the south and
west. II is also the centre Of the richest
mica district in Ike world, there being
within a radius of three miles no less
than a half dozen producing iuiGes the
annual yield of which is upward Of
10000 pounds Of m~erchantable mica to
the mine. On the north, and from two
TO ten miles from town are the bonanza
gold mines Of the Southern Hills includ-
ing the Grand Junction, Old Bill, Hart
ford, Atlantic, Salmon, st. Elmo, Penob-
scot, Gold Star and others, a majority Of
which have mills, hosting works, etc,
now in operation. On the south for ten
or twelve miles are 10 be found rich cop
per and silver mines and on the west
the coal fields, gypsum beds, salt and oil
springs, while fertile farming lands are
sandwiched in between all. AS an illu-
s|trotion Of the money TO be made on
even a small piece of farming land in
he valleys surrounding Custer we will
state that j. n. Wright on seventeen
acres, located two miles west Of town,
cleared 81 800 in one summer. On the
south, within six or eight hours ride,
are the famous Hot Springs, whose cur.
alive powers are already attracting the
attention of the outside world, and
which are equal to those Of Arkansas.
The town is the county seat of Custer
county, which has an area of3,000 square
miles, two-thirds Of which is agricultural
and grazing lands and the other third
mineral, the latter occupying the north
ern portion of the county are covered
with "A heavy growth of Norway pine.
The town has a $4,000 court house, two
fine church-buildings, belonging to the
Methodist and Congregational societies,
and will soon have q large school build
ing. Business is increasing, improve
ments are being made daily and it is
bound TO be the metropolis 9th South
ern Hills. All those of our eastern
readers who think Of coming to Dakota
to locate and invest in either mercantile,
mining, agricultural or stock-raisine
pursuits can do no better than to camp
in Custer county or city.

miles northeast Of the oil springs and in
Wyoming territory. Salt for the entire
Hills is manufactured here, and sold on
the ground for two cents per pound.
Marble Ola beautiful purple color is
found near Rapid City and Custer, and
sand stone, granite, slate porphyry and
limestone is plentiful, and is found in
every part of the Hills.
The Black Hills is n well watered
country, being drained by the forks of
the Cheyenne river and their tributa-
ries. On Hot Spring creek in Custer
county are situated mineral springs
which are fast acquiring a reputation for
curative powers second to none in the
United States. The average tempera-

There was match game OF baseball at
the head Of Franklin street yesterday morn
ing between the Broad-Street Nine and the
Main-Street Nine, resulting in the defeat of
the Main-StIeet Nine by score OF 10 to 8.

Contrary to expectation the Virginas
did not play the second game with the
Quicksteps, at Wilmington, Del, yester-
day. The cause OF this failure to carry out
the programme had not been explained up
to late hour last night. The only iniOr-
nation received in Richmond regarding
the affair was telegram Monday night
from Wilmington to Mr.. Seldom, president
OF the Association. to the effect that "the
Quicksteps can't play us tomorrow yester-
day.. We start for Kingston in the morn
lug" Several theories were advanced here
yesterday as to the cause of this slip, but
inasmuch as they are only theories nothing
satisfactory can be derived from them; so
they will not be repeated. The only thing
to do is to await positive information.
The Virginias are booked for two games
with the Leaders, OF Kingston, Y. Y. on
the 30th and 31st instant. They will then
20 to Middletown, n. Y, and play one
game, on the 1st Of September, with the
Waikiki Club Of that city; after which
they will return home.

Richmond Chess Club.

A number OF gentlemen met yesterday
afternoon at room No. 13, Reuger's build
ing. Bank street between Ninth and Tenth
streets, and organized "The Richmond
Chess Club" +" by the election of Hon. John
w. Johnston, president; A. VI. Kelley,
Esq, vice-preSident; Charles L. Page,
Esq, corresponding secretary, and Leroy
6. Edwards. Esq, recording secretary and
treasurer. Its active membership is limited
to citizens OF the cities OF Richmond and
Manchester and counties OF Henrico and
Hanover.
This is pleasing and commendable adj
dition to Richmond's many enterprises, a
deserved tribute to the king OF Games"
and merits success. There was a club OF
the same kind and same name organized
here in the days OF the great Morphy
furOre in 1865, but wars trump soon sum-
moned the votares OF the game to sterner
and more real and deadly contest, and its
members became separated and the club
gradually and quietly dropped out OF ex-
istence. May the present one escape the
fate OF its predecessor.

COL0RED MAN MEETS DEATH From II
BIfRSTING OF A GRINDSTONE

A COLORED MAN MEETS DEATH From THE
BURSTING OF GRINDsToNE.
Yesterday q fatal accident occurred at
the saw and file-works, on Fifteenth street,
owned and operated by MFR. &. y. Hawes.
The works were partially destroyed by fire
about ten or fifteen days ago, and Mr..
Hawes had Just succeeded in nearly re-
placing all the machinery. The old walls
had been rebuilt and new roof put over
them.
Yesterday new grindstone was put up,
and about ~ O'Clock Mr.. Hawes deter
mined TO test the shafting, pulIeys, and
this new grindstone. He gave positive or
ders before I" starting up" for all hands to
clear the building. He stood near the
grindstone himself. but to one side. The
testing operation is a dangerous one un-
less precaution is taken not to stand in
front or rear Of the revolving stone. The
particles when stone explodes always go
straight up and to the front and rear
never to either side. One man stood in
front OF the stone yesterday until peremp-
torily ordered away by Mr.. Hawes. The
man said the stone was OF the best mate
rial, and that he knew there was no dam
ger, but Mr.. Hawes made him move. Had
longer he would have been torn to pieces
by the fragments OF the grindstone.
4 colored man, aged about fifty-five
years, striker i'm the blacksmith-shop.
named Spencer Coleman, also disregarded
orders, and placed himself in direct line
with the grindstone and about fifty feet
away from it. The order TO "start up"
was given, and the stone commenced to
rapidly revolve. About the time that half
the speed that is ordinarily used was being
made the stone exploded, sending to the
front brick wall large section with such
force as to pass entirely through II. An
other fragment was sent through the
plank flooring above with rs much ease
as q bombshell from mortar-gun,
while a third piece, weighing about
seventy-tye pounds, shot straight in front,
encountering in its course the head OF
Spencer Coleman. 1t struck hlm on the
left side of the head, broke his skull, scat
tered his brains, and kept on until it hit
the brick wall, into which ii made a deep
indentatiOn. Coleman was killed instantly,
and fell dead in his tracks. Had he
needed the warning orders Of Mr.. Hawes
he would not have met the fate he did.
Coroner William III. Taylor was sent for,
but after viewing the body deemed an in
quest unnecessary.
Coleman leaves wife and family. and
they took charge Of his remains and will
provide for their interment. The stone
