The exhibit TO be made at the Colum-
bian Exposition by the Ladies World
Fair Club of Custer City is attracting at
tention in all parts Of the United States,
and the Financial and Mining Record
of the 10th inst, published in New York
City, comments upon it as follows
THE Chicago Exposition will give an
interesting exhibit from the Black Hills,
S. D., displaying in novel form, the
minerals found in that quarter. That
exhibit when arranged will be in the
form of a two story and a half cottage,
the frame work Of which is already
built, and IN the Renaissance style, with
towers and numerous gables. Ii is i'm.
possible TO decide on all details. OF
course, until all the material has been
collected, but the plan to be carried
into effect will be nearly as possible
The foundation of pure white limestone
headed with a layer Of Buffalo Gar
"~calica" stone. The first story will be
veneered with pink quartz. Above that
the handsomest rocks obtainable will
be used, rs copper, mica, schist, needle,
spar, garnet, etc. The lower part of the
tower will be made of rubies and the
upper part with some sparkling sub,
stance. The windows and shingles are
to be of mica and the steps of marble.

THE HARVEY PEAK

TIE hAhNEf fEAh'
Everything now tends to show that
the company is in dead earnest to COM
enc the production of tin as soOn rs
practicable. Everywhere great activity
prevails so as to have everything in
readiness as o as the spurs to the
mines are completed. The ore bins at
the mill, whose capacity is 500 tons, are
nearly finished, so are those at the Addie
mine Of 200tons capacity, the only thing
needed to complete them is the putting
in of the iron doors, which have not yet
arrived from Chicago. Ore bins will
also be erected at the Gertie, Cowboy
and Coats, on the latter Master Mechan-
ic Cline is TO- working. Considerable
work has been done already on the
spurs and if the full crew is kept on,
which is now working on the road, it
will be finished before the sixty days
time allowed.-Mining News.
SUFFICIENT REASON.
Custer, S. d., Aag. sth.-(Special Cor
respondence THE question has fire.
quently been asked, "Why has the
Harvey Peak Tin company been 80 slow
in producing Black Hills tinT The
question may be in part answered by
saying that it is not because Of any
doubt of the existence of great bodies
of r in the southern Hills, or the final
great success ofthe enterprise. In min
ing tin, preparations must be made to
handle large quantities of ore rapidly
and cheaply. The mines must be put
in condition to supply a large daily out
put Of ore, railways constructed and
large plants built. This worL: is in
progress and now nearing the point OF
production. A large mill has been built,
and a suitable ore bin has been blasted
out Of the solid rock. and now with ar
exhaustless supply Of ore and a mill
with $50 tons daily capacity-sven il
the ore was only two per cent tin-there
would be a daily output of O,OOO pounds
Of tin. This would be enough to coat
100000 pounds of steel plate, or nearly
one-half Of the mou used in the
United States per similar period OF
twenty-four hours. 1t is not surprising,
therefore, that so gigantic an under
taking should require time In laying its
foundations. IT should be further stated
that We have here in the Black Hills
mountains OF iron ore, abundance of
coal, manganese in vast quantities for
bessemer steel, and pine forests for lum-
Der supply. Hence, everything needed
for making the steel plate as well as the
tin with which to coat il. The truth is
that the Black Hills in the near future
can supply a half Of the tin plate for
the United States, aud thus give M
ployment to q large number of 1aborers
and support To their families through
this industry alone.--Republican.

The first Baptist church ofCrsier was
dedicated last Sabbath morning, Rev.
Shanafelt conducting the services. The
cost of erecting the church and furnish
ing it was something over 300, and
this mount with the exception Of $500
was raised previous to last Sunday. On
that occasion the last named amount
was contributed by the audience which
gathered to witness the dedication of
the building, and the Baptist ~organiza-
ton of this place is now provided with
q house of worship over which no debt
is hanging, and the members deserve
the many congratulations they are re-
ceiving. Rev. Mckee, the pastor, who
has worked so untiringly for the &C
Complishment Of this end. has reason to
be especially gratifed with the results.
The meeting of the Black Hills Associa-
ton was concluded Sunday evening
with services conducted by Rev. G.. II.
Thompson. but revival services were
conducted by that gentleman each even
ing through the early part of the week.
