The Diptheria Scare.

The unusual prevalence of quincy, or
tonsilitis. of the Group form, during the
past week, has caused much anxiety on
the part Of parents, number Of whom,
under the misapprehension that dip
liberia was raging in the city. have taken
their children out of the public school
as a precautionary measure.
With view to obtaining reliable in
formation in this direction. CHRONICLE
reporter interviewed Drs. Fisher 4
Taylor on Wednesday, who asserted in
the most positive manner, that there
was not a single case of diptheria in the
city, and further, that the throat disease
now prevailing, was not Of malignant
type, but readily yielded to treatment,
as shown by the cure of nineteen of the
twenty cases which had been treated up
to that time, surprising, in an eminent
degree any record of cures ever accom-
plished in diptheretic cases. The doctors
upon being Intercepted upon the policy
OF closing the schools, expressed the
opinion, that it was not necessary, and
in support of that opinion cited the fact,
that not one of the number affected by
the disease were attendants at the
schools. The doctors report all of their
patients improving. and that the situa-
tion is not such as to warrant alarm or
unusual anxiety.

A Sad Amiction.

w. V. Starkweather, farmer residing
about two miles south of this city, who o
for some time has shown unmistaka BILE
signs of mental arrangement, and whose
peculiar actions during the past two
weeks have been such as to cause the
most serious apprehensions on the part
OF his friends as to his sanity, was the
subject of an examination on Thursday
by the Board of Insanity, who adjudged
him to be insane.
His mania, which is believed to be
the result OF physical ailments of a
chronic character, is strictly confined to
the subject of religion, and is attended
with an irresistible desire to pray for the
salvation ofall with whom he comes in
contact, without reference to locality or
surrounding circumstances. He is a
man Of excellent moral c.e- Eng in the
community, OF more than ordinary in
telligence, and enthusiastic in his ad
vocacy of moral and religious reform,
and has the earnest sympathy of the
entire community in his sad affliction.
He will be sent to the State Insane
asylum at Yankton as soon as the preli-
minary arrangements can be perfected.

Pat FiatfR n Home.

Pat Raney, a sick and destitute hoboe.
has been stopping at a Main street
boarding house for some time past.
About a week ago General Dawson
heard Of the case, and since then has
paid the expenses Of the patient The
general learned that Raney was an old
soldier, and at the time of the civil war
was member of the 10th Ohio
volunteers. He was twice wounded, and
was honorably discharged after service
of something over three years. When
these facts were established, the general
made application for his admission TO
the soldiers home at Hot Springs. A
favorable reply was received yesterday.
There being no appropriation or funds
on hand for transportion Of applicants, it
became necessary to raise the required
sum here, which was done in very
few minutes. A ticket was purchased,
and Raney put npon the cars. His
gratitude to General Dawson was un-
bounded, to whom he owed he claimed)
his good luck in obtaining home, some
thing which he had not had for twenty
five years. Deadwood Times.

The Elkhorn Yields.

The following Deadwood special is
taken from the Omaha Bee of the 10th
inst: "What promised to develop into
riot was prevented to-day by the action
of the Railroad company in granting
passes to the railroad graders who were
discharged from the company on Satur-
day. On that day the discharged graders
assembled at the depot and demanded
transportation home, which was unsuc-
cessful, owing to the fact that the train
was guarded by special policemen, and
also from the fact that the graders were
not well enough organized. Yesterday
a committee of the graders waited on
Acting Mayor Treber, and as result Of
that conference he telegraphed Manager
Burt that unless transportation was fur
nished there would be trouble, and to-
day one car load was furnished passes,
while another carload will follow to-
morrow"

THE SCARE SUBsIDEs.

The tocsin of war is no longer heard
upon the reservation; the roar OF
artillery has ceased upon the borders
of the bad lands. and all il quiet at Pine
Ridge. The militia have departed for
their homes the Cheyennes have turn
ed their backs upon the scene of blood
ard buster, principally the latter, and
started for Tongue river, where they
will enjoy the peaceful solitude they now
so ardently crave.
The military, so long in anxious sx.
pectancy ofa vigorous attack by the
hostiles, have been doomed to disap-
pointment, and are now quietly, but
gradually retiring without having
achieved the renown which might have
resulted from general engagement.
The war, ifthere has been war, is now
practically at an end the great Messiah
craze has been discontinued at fearful
cost, and few hundred guns, many
OF which are comparatively worthless,
Is all that has thus far been offered by the
hostiles in proof of the sincerity Of their
declared intentions to remain peacable.
While it is true that the Indians are
gradually surrendering their arms, it is
also true that they are doing it with a
degree of reluctance that indicates an
intention to retain goodly number Of
their best guns for use in case of q
future emergency. 1t is to be earnestly
hoped that the complete disarmament
of all the Indians will be insisted upon,
as nothing short of this will be just, or
satisfactory to the settlers upon the
borders Of the reservation. or the people
Of the northwest at large.

The Legislature,

But little progress has thus far been
made in the state legislature, 80 far as
important legislation is concerned. A
number Of bills have been introduced,
among which there are but few of any
material importance. Much time has
been devoted to the numerous contest
cases without reaching a conclusion up
to the date of latest advices.
The senatorial contest has absorbed
the attention Of both houses TO an un-
usual degree, and as we go to press, the
result has not reached us. Local inter
est naturally centers upon Moody, whose
chances for election appeared less favor
able on Thursday, when he received 73
votes on joint ballot, which was three
votes less thar he received on the ballot
ofthe day previous.

tions presented a minority report in
favor of seating Robbins, the democrat
contesting the seat of Scholfield, of Gus

back. A

favor of admitting Robbins, of Custer
and Fletcher, of Stanley, elected in un-
organized districts, to the privileges of

Our erratic friend of the Hill City
Miner charges us with being gifted with
fine flow of language, and of being
proud of it. Now, to avoid argument
We admit both charges, and submit the
question: Is it not better to write
nationally with pride, than fallaciously
without shame? The Miner should re-
alize the fact, that whatever he may say
of us, or of this place, can in no sense
affect the question at issue, and the fact
remains that the Hill City bubble is
bursting just .he same. Fit were pos.
sibie for the Miner to make il appear that
we were the most accomplished writer
extant, and that Custer was the dullest
town in existence, he could not reason
ably present these facts as a proof of
Hill City,s continued prosperity, and he
is only making himself target for Just
criticism when he attemptsit it. There is
distinction between sense and sophistry,
broad as it may be, with which the
Miner man has evidently not yet be-
come familiar.
