A TEMPERANCE LECTURE
Held at the Armory Last Evening.

Major Geo. A. Hilton spoke at the
Armory for one hour last evening. on
the subject OF intemperance, to 6
large and attentive audience
HIS remarks were preceded by
prayer, and some exeellently rendered
hymns by an efficient choir, the audi.
ence joining in the chorus.
Major Hilton, who is from the cap.
ital of the nation. began by inviting
his audience to Bible class at the
Presbyterian church at 2:30 this at.
ternoou, and announced that be
would conduct four evening gospel
temperance meetings IN the Armory
ending next Sunday evening. He
read from the With chapter oi
John, and took for his text, "Ye are
not free, unless the truth make you
free.' He said that many of US are
in bondage: some were the slaves OF
habit, of society, OF business, OF to-
bacco, Of drink. The evening before,
at reception. given him by the la.
dies OF Portland prior to his depart
ure for Astoria, he had met Mrs. Geo
81. Williams. When last he met her
in Washington, d. c., she was lead.
er of fashion. Now she acknowledged
that she had been in bondage, and
was free to spread the gospel.
The Major, who has a good voice
and fine enunciation, went on sar.
castically to criticise many of the no
tions, foibles and weaknesses Of hui
man nature eliciting smiles of ap.
proval from his hearers, who thor
oughly appreciated his points.
He inveighed against the tobacco
habit and thought the railroad com.
panies should provide splitting carl
as we'll as smoking cars. AS he pro
ceeded he grew more earnest, anG
said he had been a user OF tobacco
or thirty years and wondered why
his wife at any time during that pc.
riod had not sued for divorce.
He held that intemperance il
drink was not a disease, nor an ap
petite, but a sin, and should be over
come by Divine grace. He related
several thrilling stories of escapes
from death, OF disgrace, of murder
and sorrowful scenes. resulting from
the use Of liquor and thought tina
there should be no license, high O.
low.
In the city of Washington he saw
man fined So for driving a mule will
sore back, but failed before tn,
police judge to secure the punish
ment Of man who had in frenzy o
drunken rage pulled his wife out o
bed by the hair of her head becaus
she didn't have his dinner ready
Therefore" said the speaker, "b,
good to your mules; as for women
there is plenty of them"
Major Hilton compares favorably
with any temperance lecturer VIII
has been here. he is eloquent, dra
matte and interesting.
The meeting closed in the usua
religious manner, with a benedictior
and collection. There will be an
other meeting at the same time an(
place this evening, to which all ar
invited.

Is He Eligible P

The St. Paul Pioneer Press, referring
to Judge Thomas eligibility to sit as a
delegate in the constitutional conven-
ton, says;
If c. NJ. Thomas who is elected as a
democrat from the Deadwood district is
the district Judge by that name, he is
clearly ineligible to sit in that body ac-
cording to the second clause of article
three of the omnibus bill Those who
elected him have doubtless overlook ed
this clause.
Commenting upon the above the Dead
wood Times says: The extract would
be more clear did it directly refer to
section 1854 Of the organic act, which
says:
No person holding a commission or
appointment under the United States.
except postmasters, shall be a member
OF the legislative assembly, or shall hold
any office under the government of any
territory.

Professor Holman Resigns.

1t was learned. yesterday, that Profess
sor II. O. Hoffman, professor of metal
lurgy in the school of mines in this city,
has resigned his position as member
of the faculty of that institution to ac-
cept a similar one in the Massachusetts
school Of Technology at Boston, Mass.
The resignation was sent in some days
ago, but the trustees have not, as yet,
considered it, 1t is understood that
this action Of the professor is final. The
loss of Professor Holman from the sci
entific work Of the school is much to be
regretted. Few meu of equal scientific
knowledge and skill have ever been
connected with any western scientific
institution and il will be difficult to
supply the place left vacant by Professor
Hoffman The work of the School Of
mines has attracted a great deal of at
tention in the scientific world. Of late,
and TO it's success, in that respect, the
professor has contributed not little. 1t
is rumored that Dean Carpenter, also,
has had an offer of position as profes-
sor Of Geology in a well known eastern
university y.-Republican.

company TO any Of the various districts
in which it is interested. The first of
a series of extensive tin reduction plants
to be erected by the Harvey company
under its present organization, will
doubtless be located at that point, the
importance of which, to that locality,
can scarcely be estimated. In the event
of successful TIN operations at that point,
upon the scale of magnitude contem-
plated by the Harney company, it re-
quires no stretch OF the imagination to
see that the place would rapidly advance
in all material respects, and eventually
attain great importance among the
number Of progressive cities of the
Southern Hills, which are destined to
become prominent by reason Of the
growing importance Of the great tin
industry.
The CHRONICLE is pleased to note Hill
Nity's progress, and heartily wishes that
it may be much more rapid in the future
than it is at the present writing.

Hermosa is waking up to the i'm
portance of good road from that point
to the tin fields, and is now making an
earnest effort to secure, by subscription.
a sufficient amount of the needfu to
build the same. Hermosa has been too
slow in this matter, giving Rapid, her
formidable rival. an opportunity to cut
her off. which she has taken advantage
of, as evidenced by her handling all the
tin machinery now being shipped in by
the Harvey company. That Hermosa
is the natural point for the re-shipmcnt
of freight coming in over the Elkhorn
road for the Eta camp and Hill City
there can be no question, and had there
been constructed good practicable
thoroughfare to the points named, it is
very probable that Rapid would not
have been considered in such connec
ton. Hermosa evidently missed her
opportunity.

The Hot Springs Road.

1t is the general belief at Buffalo Gap
and Hot Springs that those points will
soon be connected 10y rail, belief which
would seem to be justified by the fact of
the Northwestern Railroad company
being now engaged in the survey of the
line. Should this road be built it is not
difficult TO see that Hot Springs will be
greatly benefited by a more rapid prog
ress than that place has ever before
known. Now, in view Of deriving some
benefit from the increased progress of
that popular resort, the CHRONICLE
would once more suggest the propretv
of repairing the road leading to that
place and put it in such condition as to
make it a good practicable thOroughfare.
over which carriages and lightly con-
structed vehicles Of every character
may travel with safety When this
road is put in such condition many Of
the tourists coming to the Springs vii
avail themselves ofthe opportunity ofen-
ioying so delightful mountain drive as
the route from that place to the Tin
City would be. The number of visitors
at the Springs will doubtless be much
greater this season than ever before,
and the benefit to be derived from their
visits to this place, will amount to more
in the aggregate than many times the
cost of putting the road in excellent
condition. Would it not be advisable
to give this matter early attention

Important Mining Sales.

We note the following important
sales of mining property consummated
during the latter part Of last week ::
Grizzly Bear group of gold mines. and a
twenty stamp mill. sold by Messrs.
/ Cook x Rogers, two we'll known pros
pectors and mine owners of the South
ern Hills. to a St. Louis company. The
consideration was $4,000, and the COM
pany has been very fortunate in secur-
ing so valuable "A property for the price
named The property is located at
Grizzly gulch, about nine miles north
of this city Messrs. Cook q Rogers
have many friends in this place who
will be pleased to hear of their good
fortune.
The Gold Safe group, consisting of
three gold claims, ten tin claims and
one placer claim, was sold to the same
company, by w. III. and Henry Meyers,
for corresponding consideration. The
Gold Safe group is located near the
Grizzly Bear group. and has the reputa-
ton of being IL very valuable property.
The Meyers brothers are also well
known Southern Hills prospectors, with
many friends in this place, and else.
where in the Hills who will congratu-
late them upon the fortunate turn in the
tide of their financial affairs It is said
to be the intention of the company 10
commence operations, quite extensively,
upon both of the above named groups at
an early day.
The final consummation of the sale of
the February group Of tin claims to the
llarney Peak Tin company was effected
on Saturday. when the balance OF the
purchase money. falling due on that
day, was paid over to Messrs. Rose,
Fish and Nelson, the original owners
The February group consists Of about
twenty claims, located between Hill
City and the Eta mine We are not in
formed as 10 the amount paid for this

very promising tin locations, but
presume that it must necessarily haye
been large

Slush

The New York Engineering and Min
ing Journal, paper which has always
manifested feeling of the deepest hos
tllity to the tin interests Of the Black
Hills, and especially to the interests of
the Harney Peak company, publishes in
a late issue communication from an
occasional correspondent" which being
in line with all former correspondence
from that source, which, notwithstand-
ing the fact Of the name being withheld,
is by no means difficult to locate. The
Journal was wise in dropping a name,
which, had it been given, would only
have served TO more fully confirm the
falSity of his statements. We quote
The tin people are experimenting
with the Eta mill. 1t is said they are
going to put up other mill. and run
some ore, SO as TO make showing and
be able TO say to the world, "here is
proof that we have tin mines, see for
yourself"
At this time they will take advantage
of the feeling and float their company.
Where there is so much indication of
tin there may possibly be a mine and |
hope they will find one, as it is too soon
to give up prospecting. Hibbard,
Spencer & Co.. Of Chicago, lost $4,000
in the Tin Mountain mine, near Custer,
and gave it up for a bad job This mine
had a Cyclone pulverizer on it, and
Rapid and Custer papers doomed for all,
and little more, than it was worth.

Rover, the Deadwood Pioneer CORE
spondent, whose erroneous statements
in that paper relative TO the number Of
men employed by the Harvey Peak
company, and contemplated method of
transporting ore from the Tenderfoot
tin mines to Hill City, was referred to
in our issue Of last week, now comes out
in recent issue Of that paper with the
assertion that the wild statements re-
ferred to were due to mistakes made by
the compositor, and overlooked by the
proof reader. 1t is barely possible that
the proof reader might have been eating
or drinking something that didn't agree
with him.
