The Chlorinat1on Works.

a Rapid City special to tine Sioux City
Journal gives an account Of the advantages
that may be expected to accrue to this city
and the Hills generally when the COLONIZATION
works get into working order. Ending up it
says: sThe plant can treat only 100 tons OF
ore per day at first, but is so arranged that
the capacity can be doubled, ard it is thought
the change will be made in a few months. 1t
will be peculiar among plants of its kind in
that it will use gas instead of coal in the
treatment Of the ore. The gas furnished by
the Rapid City Gas company will not only be
less costly, but will have other decided adj
vantages over coal, such as more intense and
legalar heat and greater cue in regulating the
heat. This Is TIE frst plant Of its kind to be
erected here, but II acg, mt OF the adval.tageS
ol!ered and ii.crea ;ins ri rosd facilities Of tie

for and viii probably be built this year.

Saturday Nights Bout.

Library hall was crowded Saturday night
to witness DAILY and Gallagler's sparring
combination. 1t was thought that a local
character known as Chicago would have
stood up before the heavy weight Of the com
b%ination for six rounds, but the sight Of the
professional struck terror to Chicago's heart
and he fled ANONYMOUSLY and has not been
heard of since. This was a disappointment
to the audience who had hoped that the local
%favorite would have, at least squared off, but
the white feather was displayed the moment
the slugger looked at him.
Jimmy Hannin, the other celebrity showed
more courage, but he had no business with
DAILY, who is an adept in his profession.
Gallagher and DAILY gave an exhibition after
wards.

Geo. T. Carr in chicaqo.

While sojourning at the Palmer House,
Chicago, last Thursday, an Inter Ocean re-
porter caught Mr.. George T. Carr, our very
efficient county treasurer, and caused him to
unbosom himself as follows:
Within sixty days the new Mill at Hill
City will begin the reduction oftin ores from
the Harvey Peak mines. We have nearly all
the minerals in the Black Hills district, and
they can be mined profitably, tin included,
thanks to the Mckinley bill. The tin mines
at Harvey Peak are undergoing great develop.
mcnt. One company has over 1000 claims,
and is doing a great amount Of work on -four
of the principal ones. Investigations have
shown that shafts can be sunk a thousand
feet or more with very few OF the difficulties
usually met within deep mining.
Titus +. Corkhill, Mining Inspector Of
South Dakota. has just rendered a valuable
report OIL the mines Of the state. Mr.. Cork
hill is under heavy bonds, so that the correct
ness of his reports are beyond question. His
last report shows that in the four leading tin
mines at Harvey Peak shafts have been sunk
as follows: On the Addie 42o feet; on the
Gertie 400 feet; on the Cowboy 375 feet; on
the Coates S67 feet. Drifts nave been made
in the Addie for a distence OF 5000 feet; in
the Gertie 700 feet; in the Cowboy 1000
feet and in the Coates 1000 feet. MI. Cork
hill reports that the veins are true fissure
ores.
"Many new silver mines are being opened
up, and with the new colonization works at
Rapid City the refractory gold ores can be
worked at a profit. These works will handle
o tons of ore a day. The plant at Hill
City will handle 100 tons Of ore a day.
"Thc outlook in South Dakota is very
bright, We suffered somewhat from the
black eye which the Dakotans received when
they were obliged to appeal for aid for the
farmers. who suffered from several failures Ct
crops. This affected business in the Black
Hills, although our industries are entirely diff

immigration is quite BRISK now. We have a
population of 4,5oo in Rapid City. There
are about 1000 people in Deadwood, wlhiri
is sixty-fve miles from us, and the town Of
Hot Springs has about $500. Pennington
county, in which Rapid City is situated, is
sixty miles long and twenty miles wide. One
third OF it is in the mineral-bearing region,
one-third in grazing lands, and one-tfird agri-
cultural, and we have never had a failure in
the industries of either section.

Wherever he goes, the Hon. w. +. Coad
does good mission work for the coming rail

the Omaha Bee is a sample: wv. T. Coed,
president Of the Dakota, Wyoming 4 Mis-
sour River railroad of South Dakota and one
Of the leading attorneys of Rapid City, is in
the city on his way to Chicago. Mr.. Coad
brings a aattering report of the condition Of
affairs in his section Of country and predicts
that the coming year will be oneof the bust
est and most successful ever experienced in
the Black Hills. New mines are being dis
covered daily and old ones worked and de.
'veloped and the bullion output of the country
increasing as the years roll or.
In the tin districtsss..o OF the northern and
southern hills much activity is being displayed
the prospecting stage OF development has
passed and the producing era is close at hand.
Before the year is out, Mr.. Coad believes the
Black Hills will be as famous as a tin pro-
ducing center as ever were Cornwall, the
Straits of Malacca or Bohemia.

A Brutal Attack.

About six o'clock last evening a laborer
named Patrick Long, employed on the chlor-
nation works railroad spur, walked deliber-
ately up stairs i'll the Penobscot restaurant
corner Of Fifth and Main streets, where he
knew Gus Nelson, a Swede, was asleep on
the floor, and without notice jumped upon his
chest and stomach several times and after:
wards kicked him violently abont the head
face and side, inficting horrible wounds and
injuring him internally, from which he suffers
considerable agony. He then unconcemedly
walked out and disappeared, and although
diligent search was made by Deputy Marsha
Chadwick, he has not yet been found. Doc
tors Van Buskirk and Flick were called il
and dressed the wounds. Three or iour rib.
were discovered broken.
The cause Of this cowardly attack began
Saturday night while the two were visiting
some rare and radiant damsels o N Rapit
