Mrs Belden an estimable and elderly lady of

rapidly as to seriously alarm her family. It got
so bad that she was finally afflicted with fainting

FOUND A CYcLoPs' SKULL.
A Unique Discovery on Jos Jefferson's
Summer Place.
From the st. Louis Republic.

From the 81. Louis Republic.
BUzzARD's BAY, MASS, July s.-Joseph
jefferson. the actor. has made an astonishing
flud on the summer place which he has pur-
chased here near that of President Cleveland.
In laying out the ground and making alter
atoms # became Necessary to remove a sand
hill Of large size. The wCrkmen while doing
this found the skeleton Of a man
taat filled them with astonishment from
its great size. When an attempt was made
to lift up the skeleton it crumbled
away, all except the I'LL! A workman
laid down by the side Of It, however, and 1t
was estimated that it must have belonged to
q man ut loast 6 feet and ; or inches in
hight. The most peculiar thing was brought
to light however, when the skull was taken
b Mr. Jefferson and by him examined. IL
was Ike ordinary skulls, only larger. except
that IL had, so far as could be seen, no place
where the eyes rad been. There was one
mole in the center Of the forehead that
might have once served for one eye. This
led Mr.. Jefferson TO believe thai he
had, perhaps, discovered the skeleton
Of a cyclops. Mr.. Booth, who was paying
Mr.. jefferson a visit, said, when he saw the
wonderful skull, tfat he and his brother
actor had chance at hand to play Ham
lesn with a skull such as it had never been
played with before. All the scientific gen
tlemen in the noghborhood have been as
unable to give an explanation Of the skull
as were Mr.. jefferson and Mr. Booth Mr..
jefferson will 30 doub. be glad TO receive
suggestions from mea Of science that may
throw Light on the matter.

Rapid City Journal:-The survey
ors who have been absent from Rapid
City for some days looking up prac-

Rapid City, Missouri River and Saint
Paul reilroad, are now at Hugh Lind
says ranch working up Rapid Valley.
In the survey out from Rapid City
they run the line to Sage Greek Pass,
fifty-seven miles from here, toward
the head of Bad river. From Sage
creek Pass line was run a few miles
beyond to make assurance of a practl-
cal route from there on, then back to
the pass and along Cheyenne river to
the mouth of Rapid creek. The sur
veyors are now working up Rapid
Valley, and if not hindered by bad
weather are expected to be in Rapid
City the last Of this week. Upon their
arrival here the directors will select
the route best adapted to the building
of the road to the Cheyenne, after
which contracts for grading will be
let and as heretofore stated by the
company, dirt will fly before June 10.

The Laws Uncertainty.

Rapid City journal:
ION May 2, 1891, Fred T. Evans, of
Hot Springs, entered the Minnekahta
stone placer. at the falls of Fall river.
One A. G. Cleghorn claimed the land
as agricultural land, but Evans was AL
lowed to make mineral entry, the gen.
eral land Office then saying in these
exact words: LANDS chiefly valuable
for deposits of building stone and con-
tanning no lodes, or veins of granite or
other rock in place, may be entered as
a placer claim Evans has since
quar:ied and sold a large amount Of
building stone from these quarrics.
But now comes an order from the gen.
eral land Office holding his mineral en-
try for cancellation and saying "land
containing stone useful only for gen.
eral building purposes is not subject to
entry under the mining laws" AS
there are many other entries in this
district called "stone placers,' it be-
comes matter of interest to know
what will become of them. The un-
certainty of the law in this, works dam
age to honest entrymen.

M,llette and the Worlds Fair.

A Sioux City Journal from Huron
upon the worlds fair question says:
-"Gov. Mellette was here today. He
is of the opinion that unless those
interested in the proposed worlds fair
fund act promptly nothing will be ac.
complished. He knows of no particu-
lar efforts being made toward securing
an extra session of the legislature. 1t
is probable that whatever is done must
be by private contribution, and this in
his opinion will not be so difficult after
the present crop is matured. The out
look for a good yield of wheat, oats,
barley. potatoes and corn is very en-
couraglng, and if the hopes Of the
people are realized there will be no
trouble about securing a sufficient
amount of cash to insure first-class
exhibit at Chicago in 1885,"

ALGER OUT FOR BLAINE.

He Thinks the PlumeG knight the
Strongest Man in the Party.
SEATTLE, Wash, June 1O.-Gen. Algel
arrived here aud in an interview ex.
pressed himself as decidedly in favor of
Blaine for the presidency in 1899. He
said:
If Mr.. Blaine indicates to the Repub-
lican party that he will be candidate
for president I believe that they will
fear that he would be defeated by any
man who might be nominated for the
same Office by the opposing party. I
am personally in favor of Blaine. I be.
lieve he would be the strongest man the
Republicans could place in nomination.
That is, I mean to say that the mention
of his name would cause less friction,
both at the convention and after its ad-
journment. To his intimates Mr..
Blaine has not signified that he proposes
becoming a candidate, but were he
willing to become the party's standard
bearer he would be the unan-
ilnous choice Of the convention.
While several of the states may
have favorite sons notably, Illinois,
Judge Gresham; Ohio, john Sherman
or Maj. Mckinley; Indiana. President
Harrison, and other states their favor
ites-I believe the work Of placing a
man in nomination this time will be
more easily accomplished than ut
recent conventions. believe there
will be general disposition manifesto
to get down to business and nominate
only the strongest men for the Offices of
president and vice-president, and de-
manufacture Of platform. Well, I
have no authority to say SC, and do not
believe that the action of the conven-
ton will be- cut and dried before
assembling. believe, however,
that the leaders will thoroughly ac-
quaint themselves with the needs Of
the people before assembling, so that
every possible point will be covered and
magnified il Necessary.
