Washington Ward and II. A. West,
who have been latterly engaged in the
restaurant business at New Castle,
Wyoming, folded their tents and de-
parted for this city on Saturday, and
will be found hereafter at the Pioneer
city, which, in their faultless Judgment,
offers gilt-edged inducements for per-
manent location. Mr.. Ward is ex-
tensively interested in Custer property,
acquired during a former residence OF
nine or ten years, and present appear

Monday purchased thirteen lots, an in

Charles Balck, who vas reported in
our issue of last week as having met
with a serious accident, near New Castle,
resulting in the loss of his right arm,
has since been lying in a very critical
condition at the Kleemann House in
this city. A second amputation was
performed on Monday afternoon by DIR.
ID. w. Flick, assisted by DR.. Jones, of
Hill City, which operation was resorted
to as the only hope of saving the life of
the patient, which has, since the frs.
amputation, hung upon a very slender
thread. The chances for his recovery,
as we go to press, are reported by DIR.
Flick, as being a trife more favorable
than they have been at any time since
the last operation was performed.

Information for Tennis p1avers

Shoes for tennis are both of canvas and
leather, tan color usually, though it is
not uncommon to see them of checked
cheviot The bottoms are nearly fiat and
have partial rubber ribbed soles.
Handkerchiefs for tennis are of col
ored silk or cOlored muslin, though there
are large muslin handkerchiefs with
fancy borders in colors to match the
leading patterns in tennis suitings.
Handkerchiefs for such use require tc
be large and useful rather than dainty
and small.
There Is such variety in tennis cloths,
both in pattern and price, that every one
ought to be able to suit herself. There
are flannels in solid colors, stripes and
checks, at 80 to 90 cents per yard; mo
hair at 80 cents (six yards makes a plain
costume), surah at 65 to rs cents and
Scotch striped outing aannels at 80 cents
"a yard wide). There is also a pretty cot
ton goods, striped Canton flannel, at Is
cents "a yard wide). All these are pretty
and suitable. Skirts can be of one color
blouses Of another or both alike, or skirt
can be Of flannel and blouse of silk. The
best rule is to choose plain, neat styles
and leave the blazing blazers to the un
fortunate men, though some few girls
wear blazer jackets just like thei1
brothers.
Tennis players should always wear the
shoes with rubber soles and no heels, a.
they do not slip nor destroy the court
and always afford firm footing, which
no other shoes do, though the others are
certainly prettier.-Fashion Letter.

wrIsio Collins Wondrous Talent.

Dining one evening with Wilkie Col
Inns, he spoke Of the difficulty of imagin-
ing a place or character which had not

described the house in "Armadale," a
gentleman called upon him and upbraid-
ed him for putting his residence into
print. The description was exact, al
though Wilkie Collins had never seen
the place. He invented a man who was
80 careful about his food that he weighed
1t in little scales at table. A gentleman
was introduced to Mr.. Collins and said;
"You had no right, sir, to caricature me-
! weigh my food in little scales. siri
Hero they are, sirl always carry them
about with me by advice of my physi-
clans. But is that any reason. why I
should be held up to ridicule, sir?" In

Bechuanaland is the paradise of the
workingman. In the course of orr So
Journ we never saw a beggar or a starv-
ing person. MasOns in Bechuanaland
were getting wages of los. to 81 per diem.
and this with meat at 5d. q pound. Ma
tives in the coal pits were getting 5s. a
day. When we consider that n Kaffirs
food, consisting Of Boer meal pap, costs
from 5d. to Cd. day, there is good mar
gin for saving. We had Ba1alongs and
Basutos working for us. The former we
found clever with their fingers, but very
poor in physique, with a great dis
inclination for hard work. Tho Basutos
are fine race, magnifcently proper
toned, and excellent workers, willing
and intelligent. The superiority of the
Basuto and the Zulu is shown indisput-
ably by the fact that from them are re-
cruited the police and the searchers of
the diamond fields. Some think it proba-
ble that the native races Of South Africa
came originally from the South Sea ISL
ands, but, be that as it may, it is certain
that Jewish customs obtain among them.
Circumcision is universal, and the old
Jewish law Of raising up seed to the de-
ceased brother survives in the South AZ
rican tribal law that when a chief dies

the children afterward born from this
union are accounted the children Of the

As Professor Huxley almost challenges

he were prepared to say, on his high
scientific authority, that the narrative
involves a contradiction of established
scientific truth, could not but defer to
such decision, and might be driven
to consider those possibilities of interpo-

Huxley is good enough to suggest to all
who feel the improbability of the story
too much for them. But Professor Hux.

Never Smiled in Life.

A most remarkable case was brought
to light by the coroner recently during
an inquest on the body Of an 18-year-old
girl who died Thursday night in a one
room shanty which served as a home for
awidow and her six children. Josephine
Grabski, the dead girl, who was the eld-
est of the family, had never walked a
step in her life, she had never seen the
light Of day, never heard the sound of
voices, never uttered an Ineligible svlla-
BILE since the day of her birth and was
never known to smile.
She ate what was given her, rejecting
nothing, and never making a sign that
she desired more. The only feeling that
this semi-inanimate creature ever be-
trayed was when a flower would be
placed in her hand. At the time of her
death her body was no larger than that
OF an ordinary 10-year-old child. All
her limbs were in proportion, but her
knees were drawn up so that she had
never been able to walk. What SIR
prised the family and the eneighbors most
was the smile on the face Of the dead
girl Her countenance looked like that
OF beautiful angel in sweet repose, and
the lips were parted in a heavenly smile,
though she had never smiled in her life.
