Although the STuRGIs { Dakota) AD-
vERTIsER of May 16 does not claim to
be "boom edition." tits a pretty good
boom nevertheless. Sturgis is evidently
a mighty good little town, and Bob

it to become so.-Glenrock (Wyoming)
Graphic.
In the STUReIs ADVERTISER of the
add, Bob Crows paper, there is a well
written article, boom for the Hills, and
of course Sturgis, that should be circr-
lated extensively. It was written from
an impartial standpoint, is just to all in
terests and truthful Deadwood is
spoken of as it is, the great central point
in the Hills.-Times.

The Indian outbreak(?)

Some interruptions, would-be sensa-
tional newspaper cuss, with more pure
gall than brains, ia one of his extremely
funny illusions to the daily press Of St.
Paul, writes that the Indians of Pine
Ridge agency were about to go upon
the warpath, and that the governor of
Nebraska had called on the troops at
Fort Meade for protection. The brill
liant correspondent further stated that
the Indians intended to tear up the rail-
road track at some point between Chad
ron and Buffalo Gap, swoop down on
the Hills and massacre the settlers, etc
That the story is fabrication is plain
upon its face, and to the inhabitants OF
this section needs no contradiction. The
Indians are no fools. They know who
to make break at and who to leave
alone. The settlers Of the Hills would
not care very much il the Indians did
make break and come into the Hills
for the purpose Of annihilating the in
habitants. The people Of this country
have not that high regard for the anoble
red man" that The denizens Of the effete
east entertain Out IN this locality, il
the Indians make break, they will
never know what hit them. After the
Black Killers get through with them

THE sTURGIs CELEBRATION.

The committee having in charge the
preparing Of the programme for July 4,
reports its plans nearly completed. The
finance committee is hard at work, and if
appearances are to be relied upon, a
larger sum will be raised for the purpose
than on any similar occasion. The cele-
bration will begin on July 8 and con-
tinne until the morning of the 9TH.
Almost every kind of an amusement will
be presented SO all can enjoy themselves
as they see fit. The Veterans associa-
ton will convene on the Sd and continue
until the afternoon of the 4th. This
meeting alone will call here large num-
bers from different portions of the Hills,
and their interesting programme will be
worth listening to.
On the 4th the usual old-fashioned
celebration will be held, including an
Grafton by Hon. g. G. Moody, Of Dead
wood, vocal music by the male quartette,
instrumental by the Sturgis band, hose
and hook and ladder races and tests,
and last, but by no means least, a mon
ster parade including the city fire de-
partment, Veterans association, secret
societies and the military both infantry
and cavalry-from Fort Meade. In the
evening an elaborate display of fire.
works will be had, and the whole cele-
bration will wind up with an elegant
ball in Francis hall, under the auspices
of the Masonic and Odd Fellows orders,
and a supper given by the ladies of the
Episcopal guild of this city.
An enormous crowd will be present,
and the hotels and boarding houses are
making ample preparations to handle it.
No better celebration will be given In the
Hills than the Sturgis glorification, and
no one better knows how to treat a
visitor or enjoy himself than does the
average Sturgis citizen. Sturgis will
guarantee everybody a first-class time,
their fill Of everything and only desires
a crowd to show the world how brown
she can do things up when she tries.

the water Spout.

On Friday evening about o'clock a
water spout broke in the northwestern
portion of Dawes county, Nebraska, do
ing vast amount Of damage. Over
five miles of the r., e. and NJ. v. road
YVES washed away and a number Of
bridges destroyed. Sturgis has been
without mail service from the east since
Friday until today, owing to the
deluge. The streams of the White
river, Lone Tree and Horsehead creeks
overhowed their banks and covered the
surrounding country. Farmers were
compelled to abandon their houses and
hunt for high ground. Live stock Of
all kinds were drowned by wholesale.
Along the track Of the spout everything
is devastation. As an example of the
fury of the waters it is said White river
rose sixteen feet in thirty minutes. Eye
witnesses say the water rushed down
over the plains in a solid wall, with a
roar like cyclone. No life as yet is
reported as being lost, but as no reports
have as yet come in from the farther
portion of the county accurate esti-
mates cannot be made. Altogether it
was one of the most fearful storms ever
visited upon that water-spout-ridden
country.

The Queens Life at BalmoraI.

A correspondent, after ~picturing the
simplicity of the life at Balmoral dur
ing the queens stay there, describes one
Of her ordinary everyday breakfasts. The
following is the menu of the breakfast
served one day last week: Scotch por-
ridge, cold rump steak pie, hot rump
steak, cold CANNON of bacon, boiled
eggs, Scotch scenes, brown bread, butter,
honey, tea, coffee, and a kind Of cocoa
specially prepared for the queen. The
porridge was placed on the sideboard,
and wa served to each guest in blue and
white china basins. These basins were
filled by the attendants, as a matter Of
course, without any question as to
whether porridge was wanted or not. 1t
was evidently required by court Ell
nIettn that the meal should be begun
with this solid foundation, and that in
tliyidual tastes of the honored visitors
lad TO be kept in allegiance. Our in
formant expresses surprise that there
was no game on the table, considering
that to his certain knowledge the harder
was full of grouse shot by Prince Henry
and the keepers, which certainly wanted
eating. lie is probably not aware that
the queen cannot tolerate the smell of
gamesthe first thing in the morning, and
