A Remarkable Wheat District in the
 Noted Sioux Valley.

Nemarkaole wheat District m the
 Noted Sioux Valley.
 Hamlin county, in South Dakota, is noted for the universal richness and fertility of it's soil, and its uniform bountiful crops, which have never failed.
 This Is the best watered county in Dakota, the water being of excellent quality and easily obtained.
 The east part of the county Is watered by the Big Sioux river, the Hydewood and Stray Horse creeks, and many beautiful lakes, which are abundantly stocked with fish.
 The county received its first influx of settlers in the spring of 1878, since which time the settlement has been steady until, at the present time, the population of the county Is about 6,o00. The county, lying as 1t does midway between the trunk lines of the Chicago < Northwestern railroad, was overlooked by thousands of emi. grants who arrived in Dakota the first few years, who settled farther west, and who might have tared better in this part of Dakota, as it is now well known that there Is no richer or more productive portion of Dakota than what is known as the Sioux Valley region, which comprises all that DOT tion lying in eastern Dakota, and extending about thirty miles east and west of the Sioux river.
 Castlewood Is the county scat and principal town. Although a new town, it has thirty business houses, one bank, two newspapers, court house, school house and two churches, roller flouring mill, several manufac- tories, two hotels and four grain ele- vators. It is one of the greatest wheat markets in southern Dakota.
 Castlewood has never been boomed, and its steady and rapid growth is attributable entirely to its natural advantages and the rich farming coun- try contiguous to 1t.
 A few choice farms in this vicinity can still be purchased at reasonable prices, and it is prepared to offer extra inducements and advantages to manu. lecturers and others who are searching for a location. J. r. C.

The Power Used Over.

Dever Mining Industry: At the Nevada
mill, on the Comstock lode, state Of Ne
vada, 20O-horse power is being electrically
transmitted from four dynamos situated
1000 feet below the surface of the earth.
Last year there was some trouble with this
plant lin details OF arrangement, not in
the principles involved), but this season
all is working in the most satisfactory
manner. Tne advantages derived from the
electrical transmission Of power in this case
is that it doubles the capacity Of the mill.
In the nrst instance q certain volume Of
water is used on q Pelton Wheel placed on
the surface lin the mil); leaving this wheel
the waite descends q shaft to the level of
the Sutro drain tunnel lover 1000 feet),
where it is again used on Pelton wheels
that drive six dynamos. What is done
here is to bring back to the mill the power
that has passed it. This is the point to
which we wish to call attention. At the
mill Of which we are speaking the power is
brought back from the bottom Of a deep
shaft. It could as readily have been
brought back had it been flowing
away down some big canon. There
is NJ doubt there are mary water.

The Rock Island.

The Rock leland mine adjoins the Lex.
ington on the east. and although very
little has been said OF the property oil
late, it is producing considerable ore.
With the exception Of eighteen months,
the Rock Island has been worked under
lease continuously for nearly seven years.
and has always returned the lessees a
handsome profit. The same men-,he
Youlton brothers-who worked the prop.
erty in its infancy, are still operating it.
The shaft has been sunk to a depth OF 800
feet, and levels run of on the vein both
east and west at three different places. The
ore ia raised to the surface by means Of
a whim, q horse furnishing the
power. Besides the l~essees, fifteen
men find employment at the mine, and
about Tour tons Of ore averaging 40 ounces
in silver and SO in gold are extracted
daily. This ore is sold at various places,
the Pueblo Sampling works and Colorado
smelter getting the most OF it. A few years
ago, whilsthe mine was being opera cd by the
same parties who now have it, q small
shaft was commenced about $50 feet EAST
Of the main shaft on a very rich pocket
Of ore. This rock assaved several
hundred dollars in silver and $40 in gold
per ton, which determined it to be a dill.
character OF ore from that taken
rom any other mine on the hill. The rich
pot did not extend to any great depth,
and when the ore had been ex-
from it work ceased.

TIE Josephine.

William Michigan, Arthur Welcb, J. II.
Mitchell and Michael Dunstan have taken
a lease on the Josephine and are making
preparations to extract the ore known to
be in the mine in a business.like manner.
The shalt is now 100 feet deep. and the
mode Of hosting heretofore has been by
means OF q windlass. The lessees are now
at work grading for a whim, which will be
placed in position in q few days. The
J Josephine adjoins the Rock Island on the
south, and has in timee gone by produced
many tons Of good ore, but the slow pro-
cess OF hosting with q windlass did not
meet with the hearty APPRECIATION OF the
top man, and work was conse.
abandoned until q more modern
style OF hoist could be ~improvised. This
was accomplished by substituting a whim
Tor the windlass, but after working the
property for a time, it wasagain a ha ndonrd
and remained in a state Of inact. v,ty until

which was about q month ago. The

Encyclopedia Britannica, audit was wholly
for the purpose Of proving the character of
the place and that it was being conducted
in violation OF the law. The evidence went
to show that, although called by the high.
sounding title of the "Olympic Concert
ball." the place was in reality nothing but
double-geared dance house. Double-geared
in that a partition with a very wide arch.
way divided the -oom where the dancing
was done from the one in which the liquors
were sold. The Witnesses seemed very re-
luc ant to give testimony. and it required
tact and the exercise OF endless patience
and good nature to establish the fact that
such a place as the one under considera-
ton had any existence at all.
From the tactics pursued by the defense
from the very outset it 10 apparent that
they hope to secure acquittai on a purely
technical ground. They expect to estab- /
lish the fact that, although ostensibly one
firm, Provost & Massey, are in reality con.

is the major domo OF the dance hall and |
Provost the dispenser Of aconite in the
buffet attachment; that the two rooms |
are under separate roofs, and that the

examined were several OF the
ladies' who dance and supply the
resort with refreshments. They testified
that they were employed at regular wages
TO carry drinks and also received q com.
on drinks they and their partners
took at the conclusion OF each set or dance.
They stated that Provost employed them
and also paid them their wages and com.
