why the Sky Is Blue.

Professor Hartley. of London, has been
trying 20 find out why tho sky is blue.
Ills experiments show that the color
arises from the action of ozone upon the
rays of light. The results of his exami
nation Of olonized air 90 10 prove that II
is impossible for rays of light TO pas,
through SO little as five miles Of airwith-
ont the rays being colorod sky blue by
the ozone commonly present, and "that
the blue of objects viewed ON clear day
at greater distances up 10 thirty-five TO
City miles must BIO almost entirely the
blucucss of ozone in the air" In his
laboratory experiments he observed that
the quantity of ozone giving a full sky
blue in tube only two feet in length Is
100000 mi.lisrammos in each square

STANDING Rock, OAK, Aug. ga final
concil was held this afternoon with all
the chiefs present but Gall and Running
Antelope. Grass made a very nice speech
in which he said as his friends at the 9TH
er agencies had broken their promise not
to sign. he was now willing to accept the
treaty. Mad Bear followed speaking to
the same effect. When signing was about
to begin Sitting Bull, who had come with
his band mounted on their ponies, en-
tered the circle and asked to talk. This
being considered too late an application
he was refused an opportunity. Heretired
in anger and when john Grass, Mad Bear
Big Head and Deer Face had signed the
bill, he ordered his young men to STAN
pede the..crowd who had gathered around
the table. A rush on horseback was
made which scattered the crowd right
and Lett, but by the prompt action of
Agent Mclaughlin the attempted dis
turbance was quelled. A strong force of
police was soon placed in position and
several young braves were taken into
custody, after which Sitting Bull retired
to his camp, followed by his band. This
little episode over, the Indians again
congregated about the tables, and signed
rapidly as four clerks could identity
and inscribe their names. At this writ
ing about 1000 names have been taken,
and the signing is progressing rapidly.

those who arc interested in injuring the

all the dirt being thrown is this: The

and falsehoods. THE UNION will stay.

in the matter of the Territory VS. A.. j.

issued by theincorporated town OF KIM
ball, Oak, without first obtaining a IL
cense from the board OF county commits
sioners. The supreme court held the in
junction granted to prevent the defend
ant from selling liquor under his town
license is good, and can be dissolved by
his taking out the proper license from
the county board. This decision affects
every saloon in Rapid City, as We are

The required number of signatuI

The required number of signatures have
been obtained and the opening of the res
e~rvation is assured. To say that the peo-
pie in Rapid City and the whole country
bordering on the reservation, are happy
only family expresses what they feel, n
especially have the people on this side
reason to re joice. Those living en- tho east
side had an outlet, but here we have been
penned up, in a country, richer iu natural
resources than any other spot on earth,
but without the means to develop it. Be-
fore a railroad came it was almost useless
to attempt any great improvement on &C.
count of the great expense of freight, liv-
ing and labor. With only II railroad the
situation was but little better. Now m
ous lines will reach out and compete for
the trade of our rich mining region.
With them will come a large number of
new settlers, towns will spring up all over
the reservation making a market for many
of this products of the Hills, the mines will
be developed employing thousands of
workmen and millions of capital, manu-
factories will be built in our cities adding
thousands of souls to their population and
greatly to their wealth. That Rapid City
is in a position to reap the richest bless
ings of all goes without saying. Standing
as she does Mt the gateway of the Hills she
cannot be passed by the railroads; with
abundant water power she must be the To-
cation of the smelters and manufactures
that belong to the mining of tin and sill
yer. Being a city, already of four taous'
and inhabitants with more good buildings
and bigger and better improvements thai
any other city of her size in the west, in
habited by q class of people who neve
tire of working for her advancement sh'
cannot and will not fail of being the me
taopolis of the Western Dakota.
