Prospects Frightening.

The outlook for a busy season in the
Black Hills is very encouraging. Tin
operations, which now bid far to ex-
ceed, IN magnitude and Importance, all
mining enterprises hitherto inaugurated
in this county, are now fairly under Way:
the gold properties of this locality, and
elsewhere in the Hills, are attracting
more attention than at anv former
period; the agricultural products will be
materially increased, and stock raising
be more extensively engaged in than
ever before known in the history of the
region. immigration promises to be
much greater than it has been for many
years, and the outlook for increased
railroad facilities is rendered highly
promising ty the assured establishment
of important industries, which cannot
fail to attract the attention Of railroad
corporations. Everything indicates that
the present year will be one Of unprece-
dented prosperity in the Black Hills.
In the Unreasonable benefits arising
from statehood, the Hills will come in
for an ample share, and in the opening
Of the Sioux reservation, this region
may reasonably expect measure of
benefit not exceeded in any other To-
cality. 1t was long wait for many of
us, but the agony of suspense is about
ended, and we may now prepare to en-
JOY the benefits which ultimately inure
to the faithful, who are committed to
the theory, which is so fittlngly adapted
to the pioneer; patient waiting no
loss"

In Memorium.

The following resolutions, and biogra.
phical sketch Of the late A. n. p. Smith
were read at late session of the Gen
Steele Post No. "a Ddpt. Of Dakota q. A
X. in this city, and, on motion, resolu.
tions were adopted:
WHEREAS: 1t has pleased the Supreme
Ruler of the universe to call from our
ranks Comrade Albion X. z. Smith, ;.
V. c. of this Post.
RESOLVED: That the members of Gen.
Steele Post are deeply stricken with sor-
row at the untimely demise of their
esteemed Comrade.
Comrade Smith was born Oct. 18th,
lS45 at Monroe, Me-, enlisted in Co. f..
29 Maine Vol Infantry in 1861, being
under l6 years of age; served for three
years during the heat Of battle, was un-
der Sheridan's command and fought In
the Shenandoah Valley and Cedar
Creek, also served under Banks in his
famous Red River expedition, receiving
several wounds and injuries during his
military life. The passionate heart of
man entered the breast of the wild
dreaming boy, filling him with martial
ardor, his valor overshadowing his boy
ish constitution and finally resulting in
this, his untimely death. How sad to
contemplate that one who braved the
fire and smoke of battle for years, facing
death in all its phases, should thus be
taken from our midst. Comrades, we
are all slowly, yet surely, travelling the
pathway of life and as we look back DER
the long route we have travelled, we
find our journey coming to close, and
our pathway growing narrower and we
finally arrive upon the brink Of that
beautiful stream which divides a well
spent life from glorious Immortality in
the spirit land. Let us therefore pre-
pare for that final tattoo and meet death
as bravely as we faced it in the days of
our nations troubles.
RESOLVED: That the members of Gen.
Steele Post tender their warmest sym
pathy to the son and daughter of our
departed Comrade, In this their hour of
sorrow and affiiction
When from his glowing heart
Its pulse had fed,
The life strings torn apart,
And he is dead,
Then watt his soul away,
Let some pure spirit pray
And sing parting lay
Around his bed.
See where his corpse is borne,
Upon the bier,
BY comrades who mourn,
With silent tear;
Toll, toll the funeral bell,
His early fate 10 tell,
One sigll-Onc parting knell
From friends SO dear.
T.. ". FLYNN,
Chairman Of Committee on Resolution.

School of Mines.


The organization of the new board of
trustees of the Dakota School Of mines
was affected at meeting Of the newly
appointed members at Rapid on Mon
day the 29th ult, the proceedings of
which are thus reported in the Republi-
can Of that place:
The newly appointed trustees Of the
Dakota School of Mines met and organ
lied on last evening In the Office Of G.
l.. Wood. OF the new trustees there
were present John r. Brennan, S Nj.
Booth and V. T. Price. Absent, Grim
shaw and Conners.
A. j. Simmons, c. l.. Wood, John r.
Brennan and r. B. Hughes of the old
board made succinct statement con-
corning the present condition of the
school, and dwelt at some length on the
history OF this most useful institution
since its establishment at this place
Mr.. Simmons said the Dakota School Of
Mines was no longer an experiment.
but almost ranked in all respects with
the older similar institutions of the
country. He read extracts from letters
received from scores Of gentlemen who
stood high in the scientific world, all of
whom speak in flattering terms of the
treatise recently published in the &c
ology and mineral resources ofthe Black
Hills. In speaking of the faculty Of the
school, Mr. Simmons said that Carpen-
ter, as professor of geology; Holman, as
professor of metallurgy, and Headdon
as professor of chemistry. had no super
iors in the United States. With the
school now in the hands of such able
professors, and n board of trustees in
whom he felt the utmost confidence the
school would continue to grow in popu-
lar favor and educational usefulness 1T
is no boast" said Mr.. Simmons. "to say
that the Dakota School Of Mines has be-
come known all over the world" At
the close of Mr.. Simmons remarks mo-
tion prevailed that appropriate resolu-
tions be adopted and spread upon the
records expressive OF the high apprecia-
tion felt for the services rendered the
chool by the retiring president. A vote
of thanks was also rendered X. B.
the retiring secretary.
After the usual courteses had been
exchanged between the old and new
boards, members of the old board re-
tired and the new board proceeded with |
its organization by S. NJ Booth calling
the meeting to order. On motion Of
Mr.. Booth, John r. Brennan was elec-
ted president. Mr Booth nominated |
r. B. Hughes as secretary. Mr.. Hughes,
who was still present, arose and re.
marked that he was not, nor would he
De, under any cir Imstances, a candi-
late for the position if any of the mem
oers would accept the same. Mr.. Brenn-
IN then nominated V. T. Price as secre-
AIRY and the election of Mr.. Price was
unanimous. Mr. Booth was elected |
treasurer. The committees appointed
we're: On finance-Grimshaw and Con-
lers; purchasing-V. r. Price; school |
Price and Booth. A few
oills were allowed and the board ad-
burned.

Iron bill.

In an informal talk with one of the
directors of the Iron Hill, last evening
we learned that the diamond drill is not
always to be relied upon. Some time
ago the manipulators of the drill at the
mine struck fine quality Of ore. A
drift was al once run ont to it, and when
it was reached the ore body was found
to be only about six inches thick and
seven or eight feet long just little mar
row seam. The drill, striking it end
ways, brought out core the length of
the seam. The drill of course goes
straight ahead, and is just as apt to run
onto the edge of an ore body as it is to
run into it. There is quite large body
of ore in the Utica, running from So to
$l4 per ton, too low grade to work with
a profit. There are, and always have
been small seams or stringers of high
grade ore in the various workings Of the
but no body or large amount
of such has been found since the mill
and smelter closed down. There are,
we understand, ten men at present in
the employ of the company, prospect ng
and opening up tunnels and drifts
Wherever there is any appearance of an
ore body these seams and stringers are
followed up, but SO far they fail to in
crease in size. The ore taken from them
is sacked for future use. it being very
when it will be required.
