The pioneer town ofthe Hills is situat-
ed ia the southern portion about twelve
or fifteen miles from the foothills and
its natural advantages are acknowledged
by all as exceiling all others either in
the mining or agricultural districts.
Located in q valley ten or twelve miles
long by one mile in width, it is easily
accessible 70 railroads either from the
east, south or west, and is the only town
in the Hills that could be tapped by a
road runn.ng on an east and west line,
from either Pierre or Chamberlain. To
tap any other town, a road, having as its
objective point the Yellowstone park or
the Pacific coast, would have to make a
detou. from 100 to 200 miles. Already
surveys have been run by various 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 and
west. 1t is also the centre Of the richest
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 Of
10000 pounds Of merchantable mica to
the mine. On the north, and from two
to ten miles from town are the bonanza
gold mines Of the Southern Hills incIud-
ing the Grand Junction, Old Bill, Hart
ford, Atlantic, Salmon, st. Elmo. Penob'
scot, Gold Star and others, n majority OF
which have mills, hosting works, etc.
now in operation. On the south for ter
or twelve miles are TO be found rich cop
per and silver mines and on the west
the coal fields, gypsum beds, salt and oi'
springs, while fertile farming lands arc
sandwiched in between all. As m illu
s~tration Of the money to be made on
even n small piece Of farming land in
he valleys surrounding Custer we vii
state that j. \. 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
ative 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 III area of3,00O 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 q $4,000 court house, two

Methodist and Congregational societies

LONDON, March %.
The Suakim forces under Gem
eral Graham commenced to adj
vance on the rebel position at
Tamanieb at five this morning. They
met no serious opposition until 80 when
a brisk fire was opened up on the Brit
ash troops by the rebels, who were
strongly intrenched behind newly erected
stone works. The cavalry and mounted
infantry were ordered to charge on the
rebels With the aid of few shells, sent
over into the rebel camp the mounted force
succeeding in dispensing the rebels, who
quickly fed, much to the surprise of the
British, who expected stubborn resist
-4nce.
The British burned the village, destroy
ing the surrounding works.
General Graham will probably return
to Suakim tonight as it is thought this
latest route of the forces under Osman
Digna will dispel the delusion of the Shieks
as to Digna's receiving divine aid, and
virtually ends the campaign in this sec
ton of the Soudan. No casualties are
reported among the British troops.

INVITED TO LEAVE.

A Mass Meeting of Citizens of Logan County,
HI, Request Orrin A. Carpenter to Leave
the County ''Without Unnecessary Delay"
LINCoN, ILL.,. March 81.
Under the call for mass-meeting of
lovers of law and order at the Court
house here at two O'Clock yesterday, for
the purpose of expressing their views on
the subject of crime, and the recent trial
of o. A. Carpenter, several hundred peo-
pie assembled and heard addresses by
a number of local speakers, and adopted
q series of resolutions bitterly denounc-
ing the farcical administration of justice
in Logan County.
Among others, the following was
adopted:
Resolved, That the members of the next
Legislature from this district are hereby
instructed to use their best efforts to
secure such amendments to our criminal
code as will make the punishment of
criminals possible.
Another resolution denouncing Carpen.
ter in very bitter terms was adopted, con-
Guiding; awe dispassionately but firmly
demand of the said Carpenter that he leave
Logan County without unnecessary de-
lay"
The promoters of the meeting had it
well in hand and though the resolutions
have the smack of deep earnestness and
determination the gathering was a most
orderly one. The saloons closed by
agreement from twelve to four O'Clock
and no riotous or disorderly conduct has
been manifested, and tonight the town
is as quiet as it was the night preceding
the finding of the body of Zura Burns
With her throat cut from ear to err.
Carpenter has not yet returned.

A Down. East Notion.

The Democratic party has plenty of
good material in its ranks for Presiden-
tial candidates, and while it should new
er sacrifice great principle to expedi-
ency, it may and ought to consult ex-
pediency where it can do so with no
lowering of its standard and no obscur-
aliOn-even tempOrary-of any of its
purposes. The question of candidates
must therefore be determined, within
certain limits, by the issues; but other
circumstances will also come in to mod
ify choice to a considerable extent, and
by the eighth of July the situation may
present more definite character than
can now be conceived of. For instance,
let us suppose that the Republicans
nominate Senator Edmunds, of Ver-
mont. He is their ablest man in the
Senate perhaps their ablest in public
life. He is not broad man. but a man
of breadth would be out of place as a
Republican standard bearer. He is an
intense part san, and an honest and
able exponent and champion of the pre-
vailing heresies and distinctively non
progressive ideas of his party. But he
would not be nonenfty before the
country like Hayes, nor would he come
loaded down with the mistake" that in
the case of Garfield seemed so suspic-
iously akin to dishonesty. Probably the
Republicans could not do better than to
make him their choice. In such an
event Thomas F. Bayard of Delaware
would make an ideal candidate for the
Democrats. 1t would not then be a
question of candidates to carry doubt
full States, for neither Vermont nor
Delaware is good fighting ground in
any event. Mr.. Bayard would proba-
bly, be stronger man in New York
than any candidate that could be select
ed from that State. His reputation for
character and ability is in inverse ratio
to the size of his State; and while Del
aware is some smaller than Vermont,
so is Mr. Bayard considerably larger
than Mr. Edmunds, especially as a Ma
tional man. He is iniexibly honest.
and, while he is not the slave OF his
party at any time or on any question,
he is its strong, honora lie and chivalric
representative, assuming of course that
the Democratic party is a party of Dem
ocratic principles. We can hardly inn
agine better way out of the maze of
possibilities for either party. The cam
paign would be clean one, or as clean
as political, campaigns can be expected
to be made, and the distinctive princi-
Piles of the two parties would thus have
a better chance in newspaper and plat
form discussions. If this programme
can be carried out we will turn in the
suggestions for our share OF stock IN it.

Better Whistle than Whine.

As was taking walk early in Sep
TENDER, I noticed two little boys on
their way to school. The small one
tumbled and fell; and though he was
not very much hurt, he began to whine
in babyish way--not q regular roaring
boy cry. as though he were half killed.
but little cross whine.
The older boy took his hand in kind
and fatherly way, and said:
ooh, never mind, Jimmy, don't
whine; it is great deal better to
WHISTLE
And he began in the merriest way q
cheerful boy whistle.
Jimmy tried to join in the. whistle.
. can't whistle as nice rs you, Char
lie" said he, my lips won't quicker
up good
Oh, that is because you have not
got all the whine out yet said Char
lie; 81 but you try minute, and the
whistle will drive whine away"
So he did; and the last saw or heard
of the little fellows they were whistling
away as earnestly as though that was
the chief end of life. Baptist Weekly.

GO UP HIGHER.

Minister Sargent Transferred from Berlin
to the Court of st. Pstersburg-His Course
compiimented by the President.
WASHINGTON. d. c., March q.
The nomination of Sargent to be
Minister to Russia was a total
surprise to most persons at the
Capitol yesterday. It was not
delivered to the Senate until after Secre-
tary Frelinghuysen had spent an hour OF
more at the Capitol for the purpose, it is
con- ectured, of preparing leading men,
bers OF that body for its reception. When
1t was laid before the Senate in executive
session few questions were asked and
briefly answered to the effect that the
transfer, though not requested or even
suggested by Minister Sargent, would
doubtless be agreeable to him, and
would also undoubtedly be pro-
ductive of good results as matter of
National policy, although in what man
ner was not stated nor asked. The Senate,
therefore, accepting these assurances of
members of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, confirmed the nomination by
unanimous consent. There is good reas-
on for believing the action of the Senate
was based not only on a belief that Sar-
gents transfer (Which in European esti-
nation is diplomatic promotion) would
be agreeable to him and avert the posi-
bility OF further unpleasantness arising
from personal hostilities, but also upon
the prevalent impression that the position
of the American Minister at the court of
Berlin will significantly, and for an in
definite time, be left vacant. 81.
NOTIFIED. T
Secretary Frelinghuysen sent the fol-
lowing telegram to Minister Sargent last
evening:
WASHINGTON, d. c., q. s. A, March &c.
SARGENT, Minister, Berlin-The Presi-
dent approves entirely your course In the
Lasker matter; you have done nothing
but obey the Instructions of this Govern
ment therein. The President, thinking it
may be agreeable to you, to-day nom-
mated you as minister to st. Petersburg,
and your nomination, without reference
to any committee, was Immediately and
unanimously confirmed by the American
Senate. This action manifests the appre-
citation of your worth, and does you the
honor of which any citizen may well be
proud.

SARGENT'S PROMOTION.

A Chat With Secretary Frelinghuysen on
the Subject-If Bismarck Wants the Credit
He is Welcome to It. at
WASHINGTON, D. c., March q
Your correspondent had a con-
versation with Secretary Freling-
huysen, before that gentleman left
, his residence for the State
Department this morning, regarding the
transfer of Minister Sargent from Berlin
to st. Petersburg. The Secretary said
that the change would be an agreeable
one to Mr.. Sargent and that this was the
most important consideration In making
it. 1t was q promotion, st Petersburg
ranking higher than Berlin as a mission.
"Will it not appear that the Govern
ment has decided to submit to BismaIck's
dictation in this matter2"
"Not at all. / am not at liberty to
speak on this point, but you can say that
MFR. Sargent's course has been entirely
approved by the President and the Depart
nent, and that the feelings of the German
Government in regard to Mr.. Sargent
have neither been considered nor consult
= ed in this matter. If Mr.. Sargent had
desired to remain in Berlin the change
would not have been made"
Twill a person known to be friendly to
the German Government-or, rather a
person whom the German Government
sees no objection to-be appointed in Mr..
Sargent's placer"
"It is likely that for the present nobody
will be appointed to the vacancy at Ber-
lin. We can manage to get along with
a charge d. affaires. When Mr.. Sargens's
successor is appointed his name will be
sent to the Senate without waiting to
hear from Germany. This Nation is Lot
in the habit of consulting foreign nations
regarding such matters"
"But Bismarck will claim the credit of
driving Sargent out of Berlin"
elf there is any credit in it, he is well
come to the claim. 1 do not think that
were l to make things so disagreeable for
the German Minister here as to cause
him to desire change of residence, there
would be much credit in it for me. /
could easily do it, but not without yiolat-
ing the laws of hospitality or descending
to a systematic course of discourtesy."
(Which Bismarck has done?"
