Custes's Calamity,

Custer has got it in the neck, and

spell bound our upturned gaze, may as
we'll be located on some island in the
Artic sea. Our mail routes being grad
ually reduced, she may in time become
as thoroughly Inaccessible as the remot-
est hamlet in the frigid regions OF
Alaska. Her lofty peaks looking down
upon the picturesque parks that nestle
at her feet, through which the murmer-
ing rivulet musically meanders, environ
ed by a wealth of floral beauty nowhere
on earth excelled must sooner or later
be shut out from human gaze, for the
pioneer city once SO widely advertised

postoffice department have drifted into
deepest obscurity. This policy pursued

isolated condition, no expression Car

speculative anxiety in the minds o.
men Of means. Other points far less
favored have arose to prominence as i
by magic. Cities Of metropolitan pro
portions have sprang up in single year
but Custer with all her natural ad
vantages, robbed of communication with
the outside world, must bide her time
and wait until the postoffice depart
ment shall condescend to grant us 4
mail line to Buffalo Gap, our nearest rail
road point. And when will this be
We cannot say. Perhaps when The

Mr.. JEFF McDermot and VIM. Wilkin.
son, two old time miners we'll known in
the Hills have been prospecting the
southern slope for several weeks and are
much pleased with what they hay,
seen. They have paid little attention,
however, to quartz but have occupied
their time mostly In examining the
gravel bars on French and Spring
creek Mr.. McDermot expresses the
belief that the bars on both Of these
creeks, so far us he has examined them,
will pay well to any parties who will
put water on them, sufficient to work
them, either by hydraulic or ground
sluice. These gentlemen found ex-
cellent prospecting bars both below and
above town. but they were owned, and
although liberal indu cements " ere offer
ed them, they chose ~ matter OF
course to locate bar Of their own
where the ground was free OF course
this was their privilege and no fault
could be found with them for acting
upon it. We are somewhat familiar
(by heresay and observatory with the
ground they have chosen and located.
IL is the mamolh bar lying between
Spring creek and Tenderfoot, and near
where the two streams come together
They have run a ST. vey for their ditch
and fiume and are going ahead prepair-
ing To pat the water of Spring creek OIL
their ground early in the spring. They
will take the water out about two and
half miles above the bar. This will en-
able them to ground sluice the upper
bar and pipe off the lower bar with
hydraulic pressure of from GO to 100 feet.
They will have plenty of water and an
excellent dump. Mr. McDermot esti-
mates that the gravel will average about
25 cents to the cubic yard from the grass
roots down to bedrock from IL to 20
feet in thickness. The fiume will have
fall Of ) foot inches to the mile. 1t
will be feet wide = feet deep, intended
to carry all the water in the creek,
which is estimated at a thousand miners
inches for the working season. We
have longed to see movement of this
kind, anu are glad to see two practical
and experienced miners take hold Of it
who happen to have the means to back
up their judgment. W.; believe they
have a good thing and We are glad oft
There is hundred more good placer
mines in Custer county. Who comes
.lext?'

The completion of the railroad to
Buffalo Gap has brought, in addition to
its many blessings. a curse that has
hitherto been unknown in Custer City.
This self-imposed curse is brought to us
in sample packages, averaging from l30
to l75 pounds, and is in the remote east,
denominated "The Tramp" The first
specimen OF this class Of nomadic
rustlers We encountered on Custer aven-
ue few days since. He seemed a
diapidated fac simile of Adam subse-
quent to the fall Waving desire for
us to halt, we halted. In fractured En-
gllsh we were made cognizant Of the
fact Of his noble birth, and a series Of
subsequent vicssitudes that would have
consigned to the eternal hereafter any
man not endowed with a vertablc con-
stitution Of iron. He supplemented his
tale Of woe, misfortune and ill luck by
suggesting in the name of charity, that
we should Immediately contribute a
dime to dissipate his desire TO DIR dine,
and earnestly insisted that in such an
extreme case Of deserved consideration
we should not pass. We eyed him
critically, and as the pungent (?) flavor
of the net proceeds of his last charitable
dime came yelling up into our sensitive
olfactory nerves we reached hasty con-
clusion, and remarked in the language
Of one Of our most eminent u. S. SEN
ators, "My friend, in view of the uncer-
tainty Of hnman deduction, pass" and
We passed.
