The first mining in this county of any
Importance was begun in 1875. Crowds
of men were drawn from all over the
country; from the mining camps OF the
Pacific slope, and even from the old
world. The excitement was caused by
the discovery of rich placer and quartz
diggings in Deadwood gulch, whore
Deadwood and Lead cities now stand.
From Deadwood and Lead the prospect
ors scattered over the surrounding
country and soon the stories of the
wealth of Deadwood gulch were rivaled
by the tales from other smaller and at
the time unknown camps. The influx
of people to the new FL Dorado was
enormous. New discoveries were made
every day. Camps were built up like
magic, and the wealth Of the Black
Hills soon became common talk in all
households of the land. Since those

it had burned nearly the whole town.
The total loss was estimated at $780,

the people, who had their all swept

more substantial scale. They rebuilt
the place and once again it became the
leading city of the Hills. The town was
Incorporated in 1880 under the general
laws of the territory. In 1888 the town
was again almost totally destroyed. This
time, however, by water. The White

loss of S25o,OO0. Again the people
showed their rustling qualities and re-

Mr.. TiIden's Wines

The executors of thee state of Samuel
J. 1ilden sent out a circular yesterday,
addressed to a number of wealthy men
who are known to be cOnnOisseurs in
fine wines, giving a list of wines and
liquors belonging to Mr.. Tilden's cellar
at the time of his death which are to
be sold shortly. Those who under
stand such matters say the list is a
notable one and that it contains some
very rare wines and a great many
brands that can not now be duplicated
under anyg circums tances. Roughly
estimated, the value Of the cellar as it
stands is between $15, 600 and 800
JOO
Among the fine wines on the list are
five cases of JOhannis berger Blue S sals
1865, which, when when it can be OBJ
tanned at all al the first class restaurants
retails at $12 a bottle. These five
cases. therefore. alone are worth in the
neighbOrhOOd OF 500. Among the
other JOhannisberger wines is another
case of Blue Seal, 1862: six bottles Of
Cabinet, 1862; one bottle of 1865 AM
i've bottles of 1870. The list Rhine wines
comprises five large cases of StjenbeF
ger Cabinet Imperial 1868, which is
one of the finest wines known to the
trade. Each of these cases contains
forty eight bottles, and a wine which at
least goes by the same name retails in
fashionable resorts at Sl4 a bottle. On
this basis the five cases represent So.
500. There are also twenty-threC cases
of the same wine C1868), presumably
twelve bottles in a case, which would
represent a like amount Then there
are eight bottles of Rauenthalerberg.
1862, and one large case Of Grand Vim
Chateau Latour MonOpOl of 1874 con-
aiming seVetY-twO pints.
The clarets include one case Chateau
YOuem. 1858; one bottle of same wine.
1864. and two cases and seventeen bot
ties Chateau Lafitte, also 1864. There
are eightY-iYe bottles of 90, Madeira,
ten of Old Reserve Madeira, 1917, one
bottle of Old Crawford Madeira, 1926,
and three of T. o. Madeira. These
Madeira are exceedingly rare and can
not be secured in the ordinary course Of
trade. A great many of the cham
pagnes. too. are not at present in th 70
market. There are four cases of dry
Sillery, Giesler & Co., wine which has
not been sold here for years. There
are other cases and separate bottles
belonging to different years, and this

Some Kansas Clubs.

Attorney General Bradford is secur-
ing data regarding the social clubs Of
Leavenworth, and it is alleged that the
clubs of the state must go. Speaking
of this matter the Commonwealth has
the following: mr.. Bradford says he
has advised that each one of these
clubs has a permit from the United
States government to retail VinOus and
malt liquors, and of course are not
defying the federal authorities. The
fact that they had complied with the
statutes of the United States is the best
evidence that they are not organized
for social purposes, but that the
organizations are formed for the ex-
press purpose of bartering and giving
away liquors for profit and reward.
They must be listed as a consequence
with the jOintest and are amenabIe to
same law he is. The attorney general
does not only expect to perfect steps
toward the suppression Of these clubs
for that he has done already, but he
really means to suppress them, and
prosecutions VIII be instituted within q
