Struck II,

w. w. Challi., a plucky and persistent
tin prospector Of this locality, who for
years has been faithfully seeking for the
hitherto undiscovered ledge, from which
came the phenomenally rich float found
two years since at Tenderfoot, four or
i've miles northwest Of this city, has
struck it at last. The discovery was
made, as he informs us, on Friday of
last week, about eighty feet outside of
the line of the Car claim, in which the
ledge was supposed to be, and upon
which a lengthy tunnel was run in the
vain hope of finding it.
Mr.. Challis made a new location at
once, and had the ground surveyed and
plated. He is greatly elated over the
discovery, which he calls the Seymour
fraction, and says he can Seymour tin
in 1T to the square inch, than can be
found in any other mine on the belt.
We congratulate him upon his lucky
find.

A surveying outfit, said to be the F..
f. x NJ. ", have for the past two weeks
been engaged in surveying about four
miles east Of the b. 4 VI. survey where
it crosses the Cheyenne river. Last
Saturday they were engaged in cross
%sectioning on the south side of the
Cheyenne. The line as run by this out
fit does not enter Red Canyon but has
apparently found an outlet through a
canyon east, as that is where they have
done their surveying after crossing the
river. The F., +. & Nj. V. will never
allow the b. & Nj. to builG around the
Hills without at least giving them a
race, and III readers need not be sur

Sleigh riding, for the first time posi-
bic in this place during the winter, was
a fleeing pleasure, highly enjoyed dur
ing a portion of the week By those in
possession of sleighs, who number but
few, a fact readily accounted for by the
rare occurrence Of snow in sufficient
quantity to make s~leighing feasible. 1t
may be noted as a somewhat remarkable
fact that Custer, Notwithstanding her
| high altitude, has less snow than any OF
| the Black Hills towns.

The Deadwood Pioneer thus refers to
a late strike in the office of the Buffalo
Gap News: "The printer who does the
entire mechanical work on the Buffalo
Gap News held a meeting. elected him
self chairman and secretary and then
unanimously resolved to go on a strike
or drunk. When the paper made its
appearance it looked as though a cy
clone had strnck it,"

Rapid BARRIERS organized a trust, and
put up the price Of shave from fifteen
to twenty-five cents, whereupon the
bearded residents proceeded to organize
a mutual protection society, every man
of whom were sworn to be his own
barber. The trust survived less than a
week, when the old and popular price
was re adopted. Custer BARRIERS, having
never cut prices below the two-bit
figure, have no occasion for the estab-
lishment Of trust, and will doubtless
continue to adhere to their present
policy Of no trust.

Considerable interest has been ex.
hibited within the last week in the sub
ject of the Homestake railroad. That
the road has been located to the Home
stake saw mill Just above Runkel's mill
is we'll known. That the road will stop
when within five miles of the F., +. &
M. V. nobody believes. The company
pays $4,000 per year for freighting its
own supplies from this road. 1t is not
likely that they will continue to hire
their supplies hauled by teams when by
building five miles Of road they can not
only save this large item, but command
the entire freight and passenger traffic
of the hills. Two routes are being view
ed. One down Elk creek and one down
Hatches' cannon, either Of which offer
an easy grade down into the valley.
The importance of this road to Tilford
can not be over Standardization
Times.

much of which is we'll peopled. Tho

"Typically Early English"

The narcissus is the most generous
of the bulb family; the hyacinth
sometimes sends up second spike,
generally at the expense of the first;
frequently, however. a narcissus bulb
which gave no special promise at the
start will send up several handsome
clusters in succession. Among bull
bOus plants and polyanthus narcissus
is the most picturesque; the wide low
windows in paintings of old English
cottages interiors. over which young
ladies go wild at picture shows. owe
much of their effect to the pots of mar
cissus with which they usually are
abundantly supplied.
The narcissus family is large. and so
old that many of its members have
taken new names, some of them being
accounted plebians; all, however,
are neat, pretty. and abundant in
bloom. The daffodil, the pheasant
eye.' and the "hoop-petticoat' are all
narcissuses, and bloom freely indoors.
The flowers of some of the datfodils
are large and double as roses; the only
objection to them indoors is that .
greenish hue in their petals becomes
obtrusive except in very bright light
The campernels, beloved of early En-
glish poets, also are narcissuses, and in
growth they combine ruggedness and
luxuriance in manner that should en-
dear them to all who yearn for some-
thing truly and typically early En-.

Tricks OF Diamond SmuGglers.

1t sometimes happens, said New
York jeweler. that the Collector is
notified Of the coming Of diamond
smugglers as he was in the case OF James
Marriott some five or six years ago.
Marriott stole diamonds valued at
$50. 900 from Paris jeweler named
Kramer. Marriott was a clerk in
picture store. and. with his booty and
young girl named Peteux, fled to this
country. Two persons answering
their description soon after came in
German Steamer. and hardly had they
landed before United States Deputy
Marshal Bernhard was ON their track.
They were finally traced to Staten
Island and arrested at the Battery
while coming up to the city. Nearly
all of the stones were discovered, some
Of them being found sewed into a pin
cushion, muif, and pair of trousers
in the room of the thieves. Sometimes
diamond smugglers are reported by
fellow passengers in whom they have
contided. or who have had their sus-
picions excited by some chance word
or act. Diamonds have been found
concealed in soap, in women's back
hair. and in some instance fastened to
the plate Of an, upper set Of false teeth.
Some people who are constantly on the
60 between this country and Europe
are habitually watched. One Of the
strangest cases that ever came under
my observation was that of man who
had subjected himself to a great deal Vt
bodily pain to effect his purpose. It
was generally understood among his
felIow-passehgers that he was great
invalid and was suffering from some
incurable blood disease that would
eventually end his life. When he came
off the steamer. supported by attend
ants. he was indeed y frightful looking
object, his face being mass of erup-
tions. What it was that excited my
suspicious can't say, but something
told me that the man was an impOstOr
aud decided tn have him searched.
You never saw such an indignant lot
Of people as they We're aud their
protestations that = search would en-
danger the life of the invalid almost
made me fOrego my resolution. The
look of satisfaction on the invalid's
face. however, when / hesitated, set
tied me, and had him brought into
the inspecting room. and sent for
physician before examining him. as /
wished to take no risks. When the
doctor came he felt the mans pulse
and looked puzzled. ''There is moth
ing the matter with the man." he said
finally, "except extranenus skin
poisoning" You may be sure had
him stripped pretty quickly. Would
YOU believe it? His skin was as white
and soft as II baby's, with the excep-
ton of five red Jumps on the inner side
of the thighs that looked like large,
undeveloped boils or carbuncles. Tho
physician examined these euriously
and then said to hold him. Three or
four of us held him while the doctor
made an incision over one "f the Jumps
and extrnctcd-a diamond! You
see, the fellow had read that the dig
gers in the African mines sometimes
used this way for concea.ing valuable
gems, and he tried it. lie was the
most crestfallen invalid you ever saw.
