New Freight Line.

During the past season the trans
portation companies delivering
freight in the Black Hills formed a
combination. not for the benefit of
their customers in the Hills, nor for
the benefit Of parties hauling for
them, but for their own, and regard
less of any other interests than their
own pockets, charged higher rates of
freight than our merchants have ever
before been called on to pay. Their
excuse being that in previous years
they lost money in the business and
therefore could not afford to handle
the freight at the rates they received
in the seasons when they competed
with each other. and, in fact, were
bitter rivals-so bitter, that at one
time the orders of the Northwestern
express, stage and transportation
company to their agents on the Pierre
road, were to extend no cOurtesies
whatever to Mr. Evans, or any one
connected with his transportation
company. The consequences arising
from this combination are just what
might have been expected. For a
brief season everything was lovely
for the combination, but our mcr-
chants have not been idle and de-
termined few have been for some
months past negotiating with the
Northern Pacific railroad company,

line from some point ON that road to

A Hint to Fair Travellers.

We once remember-andi it Is bach.

car seat just in the rear of the one occu-
pied by two young ladies, who may
have been anywhere from nineteen to
twenty-five years of age. They were
well dressed and pretty and they may
have either lived in a cultivated provin-
cial town or in the country. But their
conversation was fluent and various
and we'll nigh incessant. 1t ran on and
on in audible tones and covered wide
range of experiences. Il was interest

OF course, proper and decorous, but if
it was meant for each solely it was sent
briskly to US. We could not but hear
it and it enlivened in a certain way
what might otherwise have been a dull
journey.
To repeat it would not necessarily be
edifying here; but when the train

Central Depot, New York. the present
writer knew more about those young
ladies than he would actually find out
from moving in their circle of immedi-

knew definitely their ages; he had some
of their flirtations exposed for his delec-
tation; he knew what colored silks and
what hair dressing they preferred; he
could discover their tastes and tempers.
and he was told their residences and
destination and their names. And the
time required to impart all this was not
much over an hour and a half. The eS-
perience occurred at least ten years
ago, but it is not quite obliterated yet.

Beautiful Hands-HoW to Make Them.

q beautiful hand, it is possible to make
a hand beautiful. All may not have
soft, white, eloquent hands with dim
pied joints, tapering fingers. and crest
ed nails as pink. and polished as Per-
sian sea-shell, but all who believe in the
efficacy of soap aud water and know the
first principles of the manicure's art
can make hard hand soft, or brown
one white, knotted joints supple, and
can cultivate the nails into any shape
or form imaginable.
Few have perfect hands, but it is
not difficult to keep them neat and
Clean. Those who perform manual Ia
Dor will have some trouble, as the
skin becomes dry, hard snd rough; but
there are persons that have never done
days work in their lives who have
rough, red hands and dry, hard skin
equally difficult to treat. Persons of
sedentary habits, who should have beau
tiful hands, expose them to cold and all
conditions of weather; and when this
is not the case, cheap soaps, hot water
and insufficient drying tend to irritate
the skin in various ways.
Persons who go without gloves
should never wash the hands in warm
water, as it makes the skin sensitive

Curiously enough. each time the dog

bulk of the residents of this city enjoy

imperial theaters are closed, the show

crowds. Arcadia, Livadia, Bavaria,
