PLENTY OF GOLD.
Remarkable statement Concerning
Black Hill Deposit.

Remarkable Statement Concerning a
Black Hill Deposit.
The ore encountered at the Fanny
shaft was something wonderful. The
company know of five shoots, all fully
proved, that pass across the ground,
aggregating 500 feet in width. five
feet in thickness and COO feet in length.
equaling 100000 cubic feet, equal to
81, 900 tons, having an average value of
$50 per ton, worth gross $3.50, 900.
There is a dead absolute certainty of
this silicious ore section yielding over
800, 000,0 600 in gold, and there are not
wanting competent miners who place
the gross quantity at one thousand
million dollars 81, 000, 900, 000). A com
potent engineer informs us that Ruby
Basin contains 5.120 acres; the Fanny
ground IS about fourteen acres. TAX
ing the ore known t o exist in these
fourteen acres as a basis Ruby Basin
lower contact alone should yield over
$780, coo, 900. The Homestake, or
Belt" and silicious section together
will show more ore and yield more
gold than the famous South African
mines. This seems like a big state
ment, but the Deedwood IS. d. Pioneer
says it stands ready to prove it's posi-
ton by maps and figures.

Description of the Earthquake.

Mrs. +. +. Lewis, Of Pipersville, re-
ceived a letter last week from her
nephew, Irving Williams, giving his ex-
perience in the recent earthquake.
Irving is an old Watertown boy, now
living in Cairo, I'll. Following is his
description, which may be of interest to
his friends here:
AT 5 O'Clock this morning my room
mate and | were sleeping as only BOYS
do who live a long distance from their
office n have to report for duty at
Z O'Clock. Eight minutes later awoke
with d jerk, to find myself half u Of
bed and the whole house shaking ter
rlbly. 1t threw me to the floor, and |
could hear cracking, rumbljng and
grooming sounds from all directions. |
thought 81 once that there was a cyclone
upon us and struggled to my feet. The
floor swayed SO that | could hardly
stand, L made my way to the window,
but there was no sign of wind. Then the
truth flashed upon me; We were having
an earthquake, and a monster one, too.
[ cannot describe the terrible sensation
| experienced. | do not deny that [
was trightened-who wouldn't be? You
can imagine how it shook, when the
lamp chimney was Jared from the
lamp and fell to the floor. A slat III
the bedstead was shaken loose and
down vent the bed. | thought surely
the house would go down, So dressed
myself as quickly as possible. The
shock lasted about a minut and all
was still again. Soon after two Sllghter
shocks Jared a little, but they were
not to be compared with the first one
To-day we find that many thousands
of dollars worth of damage was done in
Cairo. About half OF the chimneys in
town are broken down and many will
have to be rebuilt from the ground up.
Many plate-glass windows were 81 at
tered, and the glassware in drug stores
was literally shOveled outthis morning.
Bric a-hrac and dishes in houses were
broken. But the brick buildings hat
uralIy suffered the most. 1t is thought
that some of the finest structures in
town will have to be torn down. The
walls of one of the Catholic churches
bulge every way and the steepIe leans
considerably. The court house and
public library are very seriously dam
aged. There weIe some funny Incl
tents connected with the disturbance,
Of course. A clerk Of one of the hotels
ran out into the street and when he
looked at the building he saw W. trav-
cling men coming down the fire.
escape Two other men came running
out in their sleeping apparel. The
elevator boy Of the same hotel left his
elevator at the fourth floor and took
to the stairs. He was OH bis way down,
covering two steps in a fight, when
son cone asked him where he was go
ingi he answered, Il am going to the
other world pretty lively if | stay in
here" | guess many others thought
the same. 1t was the worst "a thquake
ever felt here, They have them here
every once in a while, but not SO bad as
this one. There is one very noticeable
thing here; everybody seems rather
s%ubdned. At such a time as this peo-
pie realize their utter 1nsignitcance
and their dependence upon d higher
power.

A. F. Noyes, of the town of Beaver
Dam, died last Saturday from blood
poisoning, caused by a carbuncle on
his nose. The deceased was one of the
most prominent farmers of Dodge

east of Beaver Dam, considered one Of
the model farms of the county. He
was a man of intelligence and of great

AGGRAVATED DRESS REFORM.
Sensitive Foreigners in Singapore Shocked
by Abbreviated Costumes.

~
by Abbreviated Costumes.
The rational dress problem has now
reached even as far as Singapore.
where, in more senses than one. it has
become the burning question of the
hour. Being within one degree of the
equator, Singapore is somewhat warm
IN summer, and this year it has been
particularly so. The hotter it grew the
more scant became the costume of the
native population, I'll it eventually
reached the stage of an extremely
diminutive bathing suit. Thus attired
they insisted On attending the musical
performances of the regimental bands
IN the parks as well as other public
functions and entertainments. This
aroused the ire of the more squeamish
portion Of the foreign population, at
whose instance the police arrested a
number of the wearers of what is held
in native circles of Singapore to con-
stitute rational dress. The magistrate,
however, before whom they were
brought, decided it was no part of his
duty to regulate the length of a ma
tive's trousers, and dismissed the
charge. The foreigners have now ap-
pealed to the governor, and, as he hest
tates to interfere, the matter has de-
veloped a considerable amount of i'll
feeling between the natives and white
element of the population at Singapore.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 23.-1t being
generally understood that tho Ways
and Means Committee would not be
prepared to report its bill upon the
Treasury situation before to. morrow
or Thursday, the attendance in the

About . BOND 1.,us.

WASHINGTON, Dec. o3.-It can be
stated On authority that the rumor
that the President has decided to an
nounce another bond issue at once is
without foundation. The only mem.
bers Of the Cabinet who saw the Pres
ident to day were Secretary Lamont
who had Just returned to the city and
called to pay his respects, Olney and
Carlisle. The general situation was
discussed informally, but the question
OF the immediate issue OF bonds was
notconsidered.
1t is stated that in view OF the
Presidents recent message to Con
gress asking for legislation which
might render another issue
sary, it would be scant courtesy to
that body to anticipate it's action. The
President has himself repeatedly stat
ed, however, that he would protect
the public credit at whatever cost
should the necessity OF the situation
require heroic action, but at the pres
emit moment 1t is argued TINT such a
necessity has not arisen. Moreover
it is doubted whether, in view OF the
present state of the money market at
home and abroad, u large loan could
be tloated, except at n great sacrifice
to the Government. With money at
% per cent it is not seer how export
era a afford to mako any shipments
OF gold, and for this eason apprehen-
sion OF large Withdrawals predicted
before a break in the market occurred
is no longer felt.
There seems to be, however, no
reasonable doubt that should heavy
gold shipments be resumed and Con-
gress fail to pass any immediate legis-
%lation, the President would issue
bonds to any amount the situation
might justify.

General Clarke in his closing argu'
ment in the Heney case put Trenmor
Coffin on the gridiron and roasted him
to the Queens taste. He accused
Coffin OF using the arts OF tho dema
gogoe and pettifogger in handling the
defense; Of secret. underhand work in
procuring the samples from the Mint
sewer and salting them and Cole
Atherton's potato patch; OF winking
at the bribery OF Lnngevin to send
his son to Canada and to secrete him
self during the first trial; and resort
ing to wholesale abuse Of the witness
cs for the prosecution to bolster up
Heney's weak defense. He severely
scored Patterson. the Carson Consta-
BILE, and Brule, Carson's night watch
man, who, he said, were paid by the
people to detect and bring to justice
criminals, but who were hired open
ly, shametully and disgraceiully, to
help by trickery, fraud and perjury to
acquit The defendant. He sized up
the whole gang and declared that the
best behaved, decent and respectable
Of the whole lot is the defendants and he
is a thief and aperjurer. He charged
that bigger thieves were behind He
ney, %concealing their thefts by bogus
melts, and hoped for the good name
Of the State that the bigger thief
would be convicted and punished.
The Silver State in commenting on
the trial says:
The government is now taking ac-
tive steps to proceed against all per
Sons concerned in inducing witnesses
to leave the country by intimidation
and bribery. The cases will be pushed
vigorously, and the officers Of the gov
eminent say they will go to the bot
tom Of the mint scandal il it takes ten
years, and no matter whom ii involves.
Because Of the tremendous efforts be-
ing made to acquit Heney it is clear
that men higher in station are impli
Gated. The defense of Heney cost
thousands OF dollars and he bore but
a small proportion OF it himself.
The discovery i'll the State Treasury
OF $4,000 freshly minted silver dollars
OF 1893, supposed TO have been surrep.
titiously minted, has caused the gov
esnmcnt to move in the matter.
The coinage Of 1S93has been count
ed in the mint and found to be sGI7,.
600. Tho U. S. District Attorney has
examined the coins in the State
Treasury and many have been found
to be defective, rs il rushed through
in n hurry. The theory Is that when
silver bullion was worth e. cents IN
ounce in 1893 a lot was surreptitious.
ly coined, tho silver having been pur.
chased with gold stolen from the State
Treasury. After the silver had the
government stamp on it, it became
worth 81 20 an ounce, the thieves net,
ting a profit of CT cents an ounce.
The gold stolen from the treasury was
replaced with the silver dollars and
the thieves made SG7.290 by the neat
ly executed scheme. 1t is predicted
in Carson that some high heads will
fall before the government inyestiga'
