CUSTER CITY,

The pioneer town ofthe Hills j. situat-
ed in the southern portion about twelve
or fifteen miles from the foothills and
its natural advantages are acknowledged
the mining or agricultural districts.
Located in a valley ten or twelve miles
long by one mile in width, it is easily
accessible TO railroads either from the
east, south or west, and is the only town
in the Hills that could be tapped by a
road running on an east and west lire,
from either Pierre or Chamberlain. TIC
tap any other town. a road, having as its
objective point the Yellowstone park OF
the Pacific coast, would have to make
detour from 100 to 200 miles. Already
surveys have been run nv v~arions roads
having this point in view. Thus situat.
ed it draws TO its support the business
of the mining districts Of the Southern
Hills and also that Of the farming and
stock raising interests, the latter ex,
tending for sixty miles to the south anG
west. 1t is also the centre of the riches,
mica district in the world, there being
within a radius OF three miles no less
than a half dozen producing mines the
annual yield of which is upward oi
10000 pounds of understandable mica &c

. We all own an isle called the Long Ago;
And We bury our treasures there
There are brOws Of beauty and bosoms Of snow

TOO LATE.

A maiden stood in a castle tower.
oh, and her face was fair to see y
She stood IN the light Of the sunset hour.
And she locked afar over field and plain,
And she said, 81 he never comes back again,
There are other knights as good as her
Laughed, Other knights are as good as he"
And yet she gazed as the sun went down,
And the mists came creeping up over the lea,
And the night breeze mstled and whirred on high,
The sun shut his doors in the stony sky,
And left the meadows all dali and brown.
The maiden stood in the castle tower,
The sun came out Of the sBy again,
And some knights came singing outside her bower.
But the maid was gazing affair afar,
As one might watch fox a vanished star.
And watching gives sach a look Of pain.
And the days wore on, as all days must wear:
The girl looked pale when the sun grew strong,
And the knights outside still stood singing there,
But she did not smile and she did not heed.
She did not hear them at all indeed,
Or heard but to wish they would cease their
song
And then the sunlight grew faint again,
A weary page to the gate drew nigh.
He had brought her a scarf with a crimson stain,
And a message from one who vas slain that morn
MY darling, twas true what YOU said in scorn.
'tThere's many a worthier knight than /"
Then the maiden turned from the castle tower
CThe mists came creeping across the Iea).
And the knights rode of in the twilight hour
And out from the castle they heard a cry
L gave him a scott for my last goodby -
And there's no knight living So good as he -

GRAVY Sour QNExPENsIvE).-Take the
bones from a used up sirloin of beef of about
fourteen pounds; remove all fat, break them
and place in the stock pot or a saucepan with
two quarts of cold water, a tablespoonful of

bacon rind. Keep the whole simmering
steadily for eight hours, then strain into q
clean basin. Next morning skim off the fat

ner in which it Is played. "Dumb
charades" give great amusement when
well acted but they are more suited to the
capacities of grown-up people than of
children. They are, as their name implies,
q sort of pantomime action without speech.
These charades require well chosen words,
that admit of ~extravagant Interpretation in
gestures. Young gentlemen are the best
actors in this kind of charade. Impromptu
charades often afford more amusements
than those which have been previously
learned by heart and rehearsed these
latter have the fault of their being fire.
quently too long and tedious, and thus
miss their point-that of amusing the COM
pany. And there is less pretension, expect
alton, and more genuine fun from i'm
promptu charades, which can be acted
without any dressing up whatever, with n
great saving of time and trouble to the per-
formers, while the audience is spared in
tervals of waiting. The old fashioned game
of Proverbs" is always welcome in a
family circle, especially when the ques-
toner has plenty ready wit at command, so
as to put questions of so original n charac-
ter as to ender the answer containing
the word of the proverb ~laughable by
reason of being so far fetched. "Acting
Verbs" is also an amusing game. The
actors leave the d~rawing-room, and
on their return, being told a word that
rhymes with the verb chosen they act it in
dumb show. IF the first guess is not sue
cessful, 1t is received with Kisses, and with
applause if correct-thus, if the verb chosen
was to sing" they would be told that it
rhymed with ring The Magic An
swer" is a game much liked there are two
ways of playing it, and it requires two con-
federates one leaves the room, and the
company decide upon the name of the per-
son they choose on being recalled, the
other confederate puts the question Is it
SO-and-sO ?" naminga different person each
time. The answer is - No" until the right
person is named, when it i Yes" The
simple trick consists in always naming a
person with white hair before the name of
the person agreed upon. The correct
answer creates much surprise a. to how it
has been arrived at. Birds - is rather Il
funny game if well played. FOur 0r five
ladies out of the company each choose the
name of a bird, and whisper it to the
gentleman who is to sell them. Any one
Of the compan offers to buy q bird, and
asks for the one he wants, the amusement
consists in the bandinage which passes
between the birdseller and the purchasers,
and the guesses as to which of the ladies is
intended by the birds described children
and young people much enjoy this game,
and the descriptions of the birds are made
as dprODoS as possible. Some young people
find amusement in games in which pencil
and paper are required, such as Skeleton let
| ters," letters written without adjectives by
a clever member of the party, an adjective
being afterwards supplied by each of the
/ company in turn. When a letter is COM
pleted it is read aloud, and never fails to
provoke much Observation-Disclosures Queen

and was about to pass on, when one of these fet-

desire, and 1 was temporarily locked up with this
fallen scion of q once rich and noble Castillian

pertinent questions, and without needing the al.
of establishment, which I frankly assumed, he
proceeded in a quiet and reserved tone to apollo

A Lesson from LIE.

Written for NE Pacific Commercial Adp.y5issr.
The little town of QueIi was situated in the most
southern part of Spain, not far from lovely Ca
diz. 1t was so small that geographers deemed it too
unimportant for notice on maps of the country.
and yet Queli was, to my mind, the most delight
full spot on earth. Tropical flowers and semi
tropical fruits fourished in all beauty and
abundance in the ample parterres that environed
its snug and cOmley dwellings. Peace and
tranquilizing prosperity had lowered around the
place, even when other portions of the Spanish
domain had grOaned under the sorrows of for
eign invasion or been lent with civil discord.
But some years ago n demon visited this
miniature Eden and established n diaboli-
cal agency in the very bosom of its purity
and happiness. One fine morning innocent
youths and maidens, as they passed to aud fro
through the principal street of the village, paused
before n large building to read n conspicuous
new sign suspended over the portal and richly
engraved in brilliant colors and gold. On that
sign were five words which s~ignifed, as nearly
as / can translate them, "Grand Saloon, Wine,
Rum and Billiards." Among others who paused
to read these words, 1 noticed a young man on
horseback, clothed in a garb which, in that
land, indicates wealth, or nobility of lineage.
His features We're fair and illumined with a
bright smile of pure intelligence. As he gazed
at the seductive sign, it was evident that he
anticipated no harm, though curiosity excited
a transient desire to examine the interior of a
place so newly established. After a moment he
passed on, and varied scenes of exuberant life
and glorious nature seemed to efface all recollec-
ton of those gaudy letters so miserably used to
lure men to ruin. He was bouyant, gay and
sportive, as he stopped occasic-~r
chat with a passip~ -1naily for n She

AID lima Patti said IN an interview IN re-
gard to Mrs. Langtry: Il don't think It IS
ny of the public's business what Mrs.
l. ngtry does in private life. If she likes
Gebhardt she has a perfect right to accept
his attentions. OF course it should not be
done so publicly. Sending his carriage on to
Boston and all that sort of thing was wrong,
and then I think Gebhardt is so much
Younger than she is, she ought to be more
careful; but after all it's none OF the public's
business" ats funny" NicoIini remarked,
that Mrs. Langtry should come here as an
actress, and yet they talk about nothing now
except her private affairs Il am sorry
about the poor Prince the diva exclaimed:
''they have lugged in his name so much
that he much feel immensely scandalized."
