The Deadwood Times Of the 10th inst.
reports progress at the reduction plant
now in course Of erection in that city, as
follows: "A great change has been
wrought IN the appearance of the re-
duction works during the last week.
Sunday, a Times reporter visited the
plant, and found it alive with men.
The greater portion of the roof is COM
plete on the main building, and as the
roof goes up the siding goes on and the
window and door frames 20 in. There
is an immense amount of masonry I'M
der and in the building. Massive stone
walls and some of them sixteen feet
high, furnish the foundation for the
heavy timbsrs. There is also a large
number Of brick in the binding. The
roasters, of which there will be quite a
number, are composed-that is, the
beds and sides-of brick. In all places
where fire comes in contact with them,

A Good Medicine Which every Family
Should be Provided With.

There j. no medicine SO often needed
in every household a. n good reliable
liniment such as Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. Hardly a week passes but some
member Of the family has need Of it
for some ailmeut. A toothache or
headache may be cured by it. a touch
of rheumatism or neuralgia quieted.
The severe pain Of II burn or scald
promptly relieved, and the sore healed
in much eSs time than when medicine
has to be sem for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before inflammation
sets in, which insures "a cure in about
one third of the time otherwise re-
CURED. Cuts and bruises should re.
ccive immediate treatment before the
parts become swollen, which can only
be done when the Pain Balm is kept on
hand. A sore throat may be cured be-
fore il becomes serious. a trouble
some corn may be removed 10y apply
ing ii twice a day for q week or two.
Quinscy and glandular swellings may
be suppressed before matter has begun
to form in them. Boils are often the
result of an injury and may be prevent
ed by timely treatment. a lame back
may be cured and several days of valu-
able time saved. a pain in the side or
chest relieved without paying a doctor
bill. When so much pain and suffering
may be saved by the trivial outlay OF
fifty cents, it is certainly surprising that
any family would do without such a
remedy. The fact is, few of those who
have used Chamberlain's Pain Balm are
willing TO be without it.
A Kansas City travelling man says
Chamberlain's Pain Balm enables him
to earn 81 200 per year. 1t cured him
Of neuralgia with which he had been an
almost constant sufferer.
A. II. Elliott of South Cedar, Kansas,
says: My father who lives near me
was thrown from "A buggy, and nearly
killed, Chamberlain's Pain Balm saved
his life"
Mr.. VIM. Westlake, q prominent
farmer and stock-raiser near Ayoca,
Neb., was so badly injured by being
thrown from IA sulGy. that he could not
raise his hand to his head, by using
Chamberlain's Pain Balm, he entirely
recovered the use of his arm In two
weeks time, which enabled him to ex-
hibit his stud Of horses at the fair and
they took the first premium.
l.. o. Birmingham of New Boston,
H., sprained his back so badly that he
could not cut off a stick of wood,
Chamberlain's Pain Balm cured him ia
one day.

The Chicago Mining Review, referring
to a recent speech made before a com
pany Of stockholders IN London, where
the assertion was made that mining
must always be considered a specuia-
tion," closes a lengthy and very sensible
comment as follows:
Rightly considered there can be no
more speculation or uncertainty in con
nwection with a gold or silver mine than
with a coal mine or stone quarry, and
certainly there is not to be found that
risk and doubts as to results that Is an
unavoidable condition in ali commercial
and agricultural operations. so far as
the evidence goes, il most clearly de
monstrates the fact that wherever busi'
ness men have invested in mining and
managed it upon a business basis, the
result has been uniformly safe anc
| profitable. So that the preference, sc
far as security is concerned, is largely il
favor Of mining in comparison with tn,
wide range Of important lines Of enter
! prise.

upon them" such absence not to ex-
coed year at any n time, though
the period of such absence shall not be
counted as residence upon the land in
making proof and perfecting title.
The second amendment provides that
persons who have made homestead en-
tries for less than one quarter section
may make additional entry for land
contiguous TO the original homestead
not exceeding, with the land in such
original entry, 100 acres. or if the entry
mar elect they may relinquish the
original entries and make new ones the
same as though they had never made
entries, except that no fees or commits
sions shall be sxacted from the entry
man for such additional or new eutries.
The residence which has been made
upon the original entry will count as
residence upon the additional or new
entry in making final proof, and where
0a'ioiaN'ois hiiai PIool has dlIeauy pecn
made on the original entry no proof on
the additional or new entry will be re-
CURED, but patent may issue.
This Will be glorious news to thou
sands Of persons anxious to acquire
homes but debarred from doing SO un-
der existing laws. There is little doubt
that the bill will pass the senate a.

An Englishman who has been work
ing for some years in Black Hills tin
property, has just returned from a visit
to his native country, made with a view
TO interesting English capital here. He
comes very near to the foundation OF
the difficulty in enlisting English money
IN development Of American tin when
he says Englishmen do not wish to
believe IN the existence of valuable tin
mines in America. And it Is not at all
wonderful that they should feel dis.
posed to ignore the fact. But the tin
mines exist, nevertheless, and whether
they relish the fact or not English tin
smelters and manufacturers are com
PEELED to acknowledge their existence.
The gentleman who is referred to above
as having just returned from a visit to
England tells of an interview he had
with o tin smelter while there, and that
after he had told Of the extent and
quality Of the Black Hills tin mines the
smelter ~fervently calculated Il pray
God this may not be true."-Journal.

As sat only few days ago In the accustomed place of duty and looked out on the gray branches robbed by the power of winter, the chirrup Of the birds sounded so lonely, and the winds sighed through the trees with a far away murmur as If the delights of spring were gone forever. It sounded like the dying rumble of departing wheels bearing our friends away. The sad combination seemed to whisper :: .sYoU ARE LETT ALONE WITH DEATH. Y Then the curtains of memory stir, and the canvas presents the long vistas of departed years with the friends we used to meet at irregular intervals. Now 1 look before me on the radiant young faces and Miss Willie's shines with new brilliancy, as if the hectic flush of death were upon her cheeks. It must be even so, for in a few short hours she is dead.
 But she dies as the triumphant Christian alone can die. Taking father and mother in the folds of icy arms, pressed her faded lips to theirs, bade them farewell with the words of con- solation: "IT Is WELL WITH MY SOUL"
 The subject of this sketch was born August go, 1872, and died Jan. 20, 1888. May the short bright life she lived, and especially, the last few months of Christian life, cheer her bereaved and desolate parents. Look to Him who has said; "All things work together for good to them that love God; to them who are called according to hIs promise" J. B. WISE,
