The eclipse of the moon on Saturday
was a sight the like of which is rarely
witnessed. It was observed by a great
many people of this city all of whom
were greatly interested in the phe-
nomena. 1t was a perfect night for
observation without the aid of instru-
ments. The next eclipse of the moon
that will be visible in this country will
be a partial one and will take place
March %.
The Deadwood Pioneer, unless it
prefers to so out as q base prevaricator,
should procure some of the facts rela-
tive to the work of the recent legis.
lature before it attempts to report any

the various state institutions increased
appropriations they were reduced over
~s5O,O00-the exact figures not being at
hand at this writing. And instead of
voting to create three new state insti-
buttons, it voted to create one-a blind
asylum-but made no appropriation
for it.
The Elkhorn people are striving at
present to arrive at a plan by which
they may get more cattle trade fol
their Belle Fourche line. AS is well
known by those c~onversant with the
situation, many of the large cattle out
fits have neglected and refused to
drive their cattle to Belle Fourche to
load for the simple reason that there
is not ample water supply at hand and
on the road to that point. Ten days
ago "Path Finder" Berry with assis.
tants went out from the present ter.
minus for the purpose of finding prac.
tical locations for reservoirs. F. A
Harmon is going the route over now
for practically the same purpose, and
