this issue that would have saved you
from SO humliating an admission of
ignorance, as you would have known
that aside from Fall River county's pro
rata Of the old debt Of Custer county,
there also remains unpaid considera-
bic amount on accout Of court expenses,
incurred since the organization of Fall
River. The density Of your ignorance
is simply pitiable. but you are very
liable to learn later, what you should
have known before writing the article
above quoted, as it has been made the
special duty Of the "new attorney" to
enlighten you upon this vital question.

got it in for Fail River county, so we
are informed by the Buffalo Gap News.

county large amount and will have to

county owed Custer anything. If the
account dates back to the time when
Fall River set up her own establishment,
she borrowed nothing from Custer coun-

from Harney's Peak. No sir, Fall River
took nothing but her natural habili-

Chatter.

The past week, in striking contrast
with the one preceding it, has been one
of the most, if not the most joyous in
the history of this place A warm at
mosphere and bright sunshine has meas
urablv dispelled the snow, and exposed
to view the green grass that is already
beginning to show itselfin the surround
ing landscape. The news Of the passage
and approval by the president of the
territorial admission bill, has brought
measure of JOY, which has only been
exceeded by the thrice welcome tidings
of the final cOnsummation Of the Harney
Peak tin deal in London, for which this
place has been SO long and impatiently
waiting to hear, and upon which her
prosperity in the immediate future SO
largely depends.
The Untermeyer cablegram from Lon
don which recently appeared in the
New York World and Chicago Tribune
announcing the signing of contracts
whereby over 100000 of British capi
tai was secured to work our tin mines,
and that Prof Vincent would sail for
this country in March to take charge Of
the work and employ | 800 men; not
withstanding the fact of the many false
reports heretofore circulated with refer
ence to this important deal, is generally
credited, and is productive of more solid
satisfaction among our citizens than
could result from the opening of all the
Indian reservations lying between Bos-
ton and sun set. No other event could
elicit the degree of enthusiasm, or so
sensibly stimulate the hopes of the aver
age Custerite as this has done

nothing but the plurality Of railroads

It's train. Grant us this, and if in the
gilded hence we do not acquire the
merited distinction of being the tin en-
porium of America, then let us pass into
history us the most illustrious crank of
the period.
Custer is most favorably located for
the centre of tin operations; her mines
are not so remotely remote, nor SO over
ly cover the hill" as they are from
other aspiring localities, and upon such
solid and infiexlble reasons is based her
brilliant and all absorbing tin plated
hopes. Custer is tolerable, thank We, and
although she is just entering her teens,
and has experienced more or less diff

growing daily, and bids fair to become
as strong and robust as any of her more
vigorous sisters in the sweet by and by.

Fashions for Girls.

Girls of IA or Is years wear their skirts
reaching almost to their shoe tops, and at 10
or II years they put on long skirts, though
this is decided by their size and development
Extremely long skirts for tiny little girls
have lost favor, and the general rule is for
girls from to IL years of age to have their
skirts stop half way between their knees and
the tops of their shoes. The first short dresses
put on an infant must be long enough for
warmth, yet short enough to escape the tiny
feet when first attempting to walk.
The extremely short waists are no longer
made for little girls, though wide bands Of
embroidery and ribbon sashes are sometimes
put on to give n short wasted effect. The
skirts, as we have said, must be amply full
At the best dressmakers for children two full
widths of bingham are in skirts for girls of
to years, and three widths in those for e.
year-old girls. Cashmere skirts for girls Of
years have three breadths laid in triple box
plaits in front and sides, and shirred in the
back. White nainsook skirts have three and
half breadths for girls s to 10 years old,
and challi skirts for girls of 10 years have
four breadths. Harper's Bazaar.

LEANING TOWER OF PISA.

Nsar this cathedral stands the round mar
bic belfry known as the leaning tower of
Pisa from the fact that it deviates about
fourteen feet from the perpendicular. This
celebrated building, which is $50 feet i'll
height, consists of seven stories, divided by
rows of columns and surmounted by Il fiat
roof and an open gallery commanding fine
view of the surrounding country. 1t was
erected during the twelfth century by the
German architect Wilhelm, of Innsbruck.
The popular belief is that this tower was not
designed to present a startling appearance,
but that its deviation from the perpendicular
is due 10 the settling of its foundation, No
fear is apprehended of the tower falling,
however us line dropped from the center of
the top VIII fall inside the base, and there
fore it obeys the law of the center of gravity
and so preserves its balance.

schemes OF Macmillan were overthrown, and
Mai. Edwards, Shelby and their surviving
companions returned to Missouri. He began
work on The Missouri Republican as reporter.
In 1868 he and Col John Moore established
The Kansas City Times; after that changed
hands he worked on The st. Louis Times, and
while there had his duel with Col f. S. Fos-
ter, of The Evening Journal. This grew out
of a heated discussion excited by the action
of the Fair association at Rockford, Ills, in
yiting jefferson Davis to deliver an address.
Mr.. Davis never came, but the newspaper
controversy was furious. Maj. Edwards and
Col Foster exchanged shots, but neither was
hurt Soon after Maj Edwards published
his work on Border Warfare" He worked
q while on The Sedalia Democrat and The
st. Joseph Gazette, but soon located again in
Kansas City, which WAS his home at the time
of his death.
His writings were of intense interest. His
style was peculiar-somewhat torid, but
powerful and TO the last degree fascinating
He was one of the most popular men in
Missouri. and though not an Office seeker was
q decided power in the politics of the state
No man became well acquainted with him
without liking him, and his death is mourned
by men of all parties and equally by the Mis-
souri, soldiers of both armies. He married,
in 1871, Miss Mary Virginia Plattenberg,
who survives him, with two sons and
daughter. All the journalists Of Missouri
join in expressions OF regret for his untimely
death, as it was hoped he yet had many years
OF brilliant work before him.

RUE ST. ANTOINE FROM THE BASTILE
effort has been made TO reproduce rs much
n possible of the Paris of 1883. The Bastile
has been rebuilt, to some extent; the Rue st.
Antoine st. Anthony street,, the seed bed
Of Jacobinism in the French revolution, has
been partially restored, all the old relics of
the old regime have been collected, and tho
illustrated papers have given whole issues to
picturing and describing the Paris and tho
France of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette.
A miserable France it was for the common
people, and very cruel, licentious, intern
perste Paris. The pictures given by the Pa
risian papers are handsome enough to make
the aesthetic eye glisten, but some of tho
views are shocking TO humanity In them
are shown the lean laborers, the clumsy carts
and poor, CALLED horses Of the peasantry; the
women peddlers and boy vendors of wood,
bending under loads which humane man
would hesitate to lay on a donkey; the pillory
where offenders were fastened by neck and
feet in a suspended platform, which revoved
slowly, so that the jeering crowd might see
him in all positions; and worst Of all the be-
ieweled, perfumed, painted and powdered
courtiers and high born ladies driving
through and over all this misery without a
thought that their vile luxury and wretched
mismanagement were largely the cause of it.
The revolution did not come a day too soon,
and one is tempted to add that none too
