Important Decision.

A very important decision has been
made by the supreme court touching
the cattle interests in the Black
Hills. A man named Holcomb living
In Pennington county had a ranch
mouse in the same county and had all
MS branding, rounding up and other
ranch work done there while his
cattle gazed largely on the free range
across In Ziebach county. The Pen
nington assessors assessed these cattle
and Holcomb appealed on the ground
That the property belonged in lie
bach and should be taxed there. The
court oyer-ruled the point on the
ground that the home ranch being
In remington and all the ranch
work being done there and the cattle
being driven there at intervals they
were properly taxed there.
This decision does not however
imply that cattle feeding altogether
In the unorganized counties can be
taxed In the organized ones as it has
been construed by many.

Nearly a year ago the Chicago COM
mon council gave an order that the
garbage in that city should be dis.
posed Of by cremation. Public crema-
tories are not elaborate affairs, ana
one can be built in a months time or
less. If Chicago gets her crematories
in successful operation before May, it
will be an additional inducement for
outsiders TO visit the Worlds fair.
Meantime the right way TO dispose Of
garbage accumulations, not only in
Chicago, out in every city, is TO Gre
mate them, and the matter ought to
be followed up at once The heaps Of
filth and decaying organic matter
that gathered in the streets OF cities
this winter and could not be carted
away on account Of the cold weather
were an object lesson that ought not
TO be neglected. A way VIII be found
in the future TO make garbage as
valuable as tie golden dust heap Of
Dickens novel. But until that way
is found the garbage ought to be
burned, every pound OF it. The re-
sulting ashes could be sold at a good
price. If cholera should come next
summer, garbage dumps will invite
il 10 rest and ravage.

A Geyser Clock.

The most curious and unique clock
in the United States, or IN the world
for that matter, was constructed by
Amos Lane, of Amedee, during the last
summer. Lanes curious clock-which
by the way, is all face, hands and lever
is attached to a geyser which shoots
upward an immense column of hot
water every thirty-eight seconds exactly
This spouting never varies tenth of a
second in its time. Therefore a clock
properly harnessed to it cannot do 9TH
erwise than keep correct time. The
lever mentioned above in connection
with the hands and face of the clock is
so placed as to be fairly hit by the
shooting column of water, and every
time the lever is struck it moves the
hands forward exactly thirty-eight sec
onds. Lanes only trouble was to prop
erly divide these thirty-eight second
strokes into hours During the time
he was employed in constructing his
novelty it is said he often quietly
wished that old Dame Nature had gcared
this particular geyser so as to spout
every half minute exactly.-St. Louis
