A MAN at Milwaukee made a failure
of an attempt at suicide, and was fright
ened nearly to death when some jokers
indicated San intention to complete the
work. That is one of the queer things
in human nature-people who want to
destroy themselves will fight desper-
ately any attempt of others to do the
work for them.

THERE have been some disastrous
failures in wooden manufactures in the
East of late, and that industry is gener-
ally greatly depressed. One mill owner,
who declared that the election of CLEvE-
LAND would ruin him and he would sell
at 25 per cent of cost, has been sold by
assignee at less than 10 per cent. The
chief difficulty is the heavy tariff on the
kinds of wool they are obliged to i'm
port. 1t is predicted that another de-
cade of such protection will complete
the destruction of this industry.

In VIEW of the activity of the ladies
and their purpose to work at the polls
at the voting OH prohibition in Penn

repel such charming presence. 1t

DOWN EAST OPINIONS.

: Minnesota has adopted law against
intemperance, which will be watched
with interest in view of the attempts
at legislation to prevent the evils of the
liquor traffic. The law makes drunken
ness crime. and assesses severe pun
1shment for every repetition of the
Offense up to the third time. In this
case. however, the enforcement of the
law is of more Importance than the law
itself.-St. Louis Dispatch.
Senator Washburn, of Minnesota, says
the corrupt use of money is undermin-
ing the political institutions of the
country, and that there must be stop
to this business soon or there will be
danger of revolution. The late Min
nesota legislature, he says, was the
worst ever known in that state; and,
from what he had heard of the New
York legislature, it's practices must have
been of similar Observation-Disclosures
phia Record.
The new drunkard law went into
effect in Minnesota yesterday. The pun
ishment for man who becomes intoxi-
Gated for the third time is Imprisonment
for not less than sixty days. There will
have to be a general reformation in the
great Northwest or the prisons will have
to be enlarged.-New York Star.

it was very probable that many of them
would quit the camp without seeing any
gold whatever. While we would be
greatly pleased to note the discovery of
rich placers in that or any other section
of the Hills, should they be discovered,
we cannot refrain from expressing the
opinion, which is based upon reports of
the most reliable character, that there
is nothing to justify stampede to the
locality in question, and that the reports
now being circulated of fabulous strikes
in that locality are wholly without
foundation in fact. 1t is possible, in the
event of the large number of miners
now on the ground, turning their atten-
ton to prospecting, important discover
les may be made, and we earnestly hope
that such may sbe the result, but that
discoveries of sufficient importance to
justify a stampede have yet been made,
is matter OF the gravest doubt.

The Moss Engraving Company.

A late issue of the New York World
has an elaborate article descriptive of
this mammoth institution embracing q
complete history of its founder, John
Calvin Moss, the father Of Mr.. r. B.
Moss, the superintendent Of the com
pany, now engaged in the development
of gold properties at Four Mile, from
which we excerpt the following closing
paragraphs:
To-day the Moss Engraving Company,
occupying the large story building
at No. $50 Pearl street, is the largest
establishment in existence using Mr.
Moss's inventions and processes, and it's
work has become favorably known all
over the civilized world. The founder
of the firm is still hard at work to inn
prove and cheaper his product. One of
his more recent inventions enables the
production direct from the photograph
of engraved plates suitable to be printed
from on an ordinary printing press
saving the expense of drawing and
preparing the cut, but at the same time
preserving all the delicacy, beauty and
softness of a photograph.
Mr.. Moss has given a thorough artistic
education to his son, Mr.. Robt. b. Moss
and he now occupies the position o.
superintendent of the establishment.

Mis-statcments.

Rover the Deadwood Pioneer CORE.
spondent, who recently visited the
Southern Hills for the purpose of writ
ing up the tin districts, reports $50 men
employed at the Eta mine, which
number, he AYERS, is being increased
daily. This statement, which, if true,
would be SO pleasing in its contempla-
ton, is rendered ridiculous by the gem
eral knowledge of the the fact in this
locality, of there being less than one
tenth Of that number Of men employed
by the company at that place, and that
up to this writing the number has not
been increased TO any extent whatever.
1t is well known fact, that only at the
mines near Hill City, and at the Tin
Reef, near this place, are there more
men employed by the Harvey Peak
company than were employed prior to
the arrival Of Professor Vincent, Mr..
Wilson and others connected with the
company month ago Rover also
makes the ridiculous statement, that the
ores to be mined from the Darwin and
other claims located at Tenderfoot. nine
miles distant from Hill City, will be
transported by team to that place for
reduction, a statement so utterly absurd
as to bring blush to the cheek of the
average reader, and make the Harney
Peak company laugh out loud.
1t may be taken for granted that the
reduction plant to be constructed at
Hill City, great and extensive as it may
be, is only one of a series of similar
plants which will eventually be built in
the various tin districts by the company,
and that, in the not distant hence, the
location of the additional plants referred
to will be known to the public. 1t may
be accepted as a well settled conclusion,
that in no case will the ore from the
mines Of this company be transported a
distance Of nine miles by any method ;
and it is equally certain that no ore
whatever will be transported by team.
Rover should rove again through the
tin districts, say six weeks hence, when
he would be better able to determine
the intention of the Harvey Peak com
pany, which he has thus far seemingly
reported at random, and when ne comes
again we will be pleased to show him
through a district six miles west of this
city, of which he evidently has not
heard and which is destined to take a
leading position among the promising
tin districts of the champion tin belt OF
the world. We refer to Warrens gulch
district, of which the world will hear
much more Of later on.

A Murderer Captured.

Miles II. Henry, alias Frank Miller,
alias Frank Lynch, wanted in Chase
county, Neb., for the murder Of Maher,
in that county on the 2Sth day of March,
1889, was captured by Sheriff w. s.
Wood Of this place. on Tuesday, the l4th
inst, at point on the Cheyenne river,
about IS miles southwest of this city.
Sheriff Wood had been notified of his
having passed through Oelrichs and
Buffalo Gap several weeks ago, and had
been given full description Of him 10y
the sheriff Of Chase county, Who had
been in pursuit of him III the oil and
coal fields, and who, giving up the pur-
suit, returned home few days ago.
Having by some means obtained trace
of the murderer, Sheriff Wood proceed
ed alone to the point named, where he
found his man in an old deserted cabin,
where by very deceptive story he OBJ
tanned the consent of the murderer to
remain all night sharing with him his
poorly provided couch upon the floor
The murderer being thrown entirely off
his guard by the sheriff g story. left the
cabin in the morning without his gun,
and assisted the sheriff in hitching
up his team. after which, at the proper
time, he was handsomely "held up"
hand cufled, and brought to this city,
where, in Jail. he now awaits a response
from telegram sent to the sheriff Of
Chase county relative to his disposition.
The arrest was adroitly managed and
reflects credit upon the official ability
and undaunted courage of:SheriT Wood,
who, we are gratifed to learn, will re-
ceive reward of 1926, offered for the
arrest Of the criminal.

The Gold Run Stampede.

Quite an excitement has been created,
mainly through reports reaching the
public through Deadwood newspapers,
Of fabulously rich discoveries Of gold
placers at Gold Run, near Mountain
City, on the old Custer and Deadwood
telegraph road, about 20 miles north
west of this place, and about 40 miles
southwest of Deadwood. These reports
have been SO flattering in character as
to induce many to visit the locality, and
it is said that no less than 200 miners
were on the ground on Tuesday last, the
date of our latest advices. Notwith
standing the fact of the large number OF
prospectors located in this vicinity, the
excitement has failed to obtain to any
considerable extent here, consequently
only few persons have visited the
camp, of whom none have report ed
upon their return, the presence of gold
in such quantity as to justify so great q
stampede as has been created by the
gilded reports in circulation.
Thus far but very little prospecting
has been done, the attention of the
miners being largely taken up in ths
location of claims, with view to pros
pecting them in the future. Our in
formant states that an area of eigh
miles in extent had been staked wher
he left the camp on Tuesday, and tha
not one in twenty of the locators ha,
yet seen the color Of gold in that local
lity, and that so far as appearances wen

that corps of surveyors will start from
Pierre, for the purpose of surveying a
line west through the Black Hills to
Puget Sound on May Is. This is not a
railroad project that Pierre has cooked
up, because there is not Pierre man
connected with it. We learn that the
intention is to form an eastern connec-
tion with railroad that is coming in
from the east with the purpose of
making it trans continental line and
is of course of very much importance
to Pierre. We shall be able to give our
readers the details in our next issue"
