in Rapid City during much Of last week.
Keystone No. a, or the Holy Terror as

prlsing that It's ownership should be
contested by many individuals, employs
ing the best legal talent Of the country
to represent their interests.
Several specimens OF ore from this
mine are in possession of parties j n

discovered aud worked. the Roschllds
bankers may be glad to demonitize gold
and substitute some other more rare
metal in it's plaza.

T o BE DIS M S S ED
Over q Hundred Pension Office Clerks
Have Got to Go.
The List of Victims Not Yet Complete
and Secretary Smith Will
Revise 1t.

In accordance with the last legislative
and executive appropriation bill Commits
sioner Lochren is preparing a list of en-
ployes of the pension bureau who will nee
essarily be dismissed at the end Of the fis-
cal year. The law calls for a reduction of
1863 employees. OF this number forty-nine
are provided for in other departments.
There are also at this time fourteen va
cancies, which are charged up against the
dismissal clause Of the appropriation bill.
This leaves JOG dismissals to be made. and
the commissioner is slowly making them,
going over the rolls carefully and making
up the roll of so-called Infortunates. The
law was thoushtfully fortified by Congress
against the eXigency that in selecting those
who are to be dismissed the commissioner
should choose soldiers and republicans and
retain young able-bodied democrats. A
clause was inserted somewhere in the Sen
ate providing that other things being equal
preference should be given old soldiers and
the widows of soldiers.
Thus far not one sUch has been put on
the list of clerks to be dismissed. The full
list will not be announced for several days
yet. 1t is not completed, and If 1t were
Secretary Smith is no. here to approve it.
1t is intended to give the 106 thus legis-
lated out of office leave of absence, with
pay, for one month. The selections for dis
missal are made entirely or the line of
efficiency, as far as 1t Is possible for the
commissioner to judge. 1t is not yet known
whether the entire list of names will be
made public or not. Secretary Smith Is
averse to giving out the names of clerks
who are thus legislated out of Office, as 1t
tends to build up the impression that their
discharge was made because of their de-
nnquency In some respect, which Is not the
case. Hundreds of clerks will be retained,
1t is said, whose efficiency, IL ascertained
by some adequate means. would not aver
age above that of the unfortunate who are
selected to CO.

for the last ten days of May. Here are the
record smashers:

the highest previous record; Lynchburg 90

Grand Haven, Mich, Sc, gain of l. St.

Washington and Baltimore each had 94
degrees, that being no gain over previous
records. The record here is 90, which was
accomplished on the 26th of May, 1880.
But records or no records,it is hot enough
to please all tastes except the dispensers of
cool drinks, soda water. and such like.
The snow ball man has come forth in all
the glory of his lusty lungs. The hands
on the ice wagons are working over time,

Up to noon today there were no cases of
heat prostration recorded at the Emer-
gency Hospital. Yesterday there was but
one, that is to say one genuine case Cf
sunstroke, though this was not serious.
There were cases Of heat sickness, but
nothing that could be called dangerous.
Last year, says DR.. Church, in charge of
the hospital, there were but three genuine
cases of sunstroke brought into the hos
pital. These are often. If not usually, fatal,
but the others are not.

MUCH-NEEDED RAIN FALLS.
Some Crops Benefited, others Much
Damaged.


ST. LOUIS, Mo-. May 81.-Dispatches
from points in Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas
and Missouri say much-needed rains have
fallen within the past tweny-four hours.
Crops, which were in bad condition because
of the drought, are much benefited. From
Calvert, Tex, comes the report of numerous
washouts, resulting in much delay to pas
senger and mail trains. Several bridges
were reported gone, and the crop damage
is great. Portions of several large farms
are now under water, and all of those in
the lowlands are ruined. That section was
never visited by such rain before.
MILAN, Mo-, May 31.-The drought which
has prevailed for the past two months, de-
vastating this county, has been broken by
a steady rain, which has continued for over
ten hours. 1t will revive the corn, help the
oats and wheat and start the grass.
DUBUQUE, Iowa, May 31.-Rain fell all
over northern Iowa yesterday. Tempera-
tIre dropped TO so.
DENVER, Col, May 81.-Railway man
ayers are fearful lest the great downpour
of rain and snow the pas: two days will
result in dangerous floods in the rivers like
those OF year ago, which did enormous
damage to the railroads. Since the storm
began, early Wednesday morning, until it
ceased last night, there was the remark
able precipitation of 1.73 inches. For Colo
rado this Is an unusual record and for the
same length Of time it is unparalleled. At
Leadville and many other places in the
noun tainS the snow was over two feet
deep. 1t Is melting rapidly.

Expected to Arrive Here This After
nOon-Mrs. Cleveland Going Away.
kilograms were received here today from
members of the presidential party saying
that their special train passed through
Pittsburg at 8 o'clock this morning. bound
east, and that 1t would probably arrive at
Washington shortly after o'clock. Some
of these messages fixed 4:1O o'clock as the
time of arrival, while others fixed 1t as late
as 4:40 o'clock. The President will prob
ably proceed direct to Woodley, although
1t is possible he may make a short visit to
the White House on his way to his country
home in order to ascertain IL there is any
thing Of Importance requiring his imme-
diate attention.
1t is believed that arrangements for the
departure Of the President and his family
to Gray Gables, on Buzxard's bay. will be
turns here from his sad mission to Chicago.
and that the party will start on their
northern journey within the next forty
eight hours. The prevailing hot spell and
the necessity for getting Mrs. Cleveland
and the children to cooler climate, will
undoubtedly expedite the ARRANGEMENTS
for the trip. The exact time of their de-
parture will be left open until the Presi-
dent returns. 1t is almost certain that
they will take their departure in day or
two and that the President will accompany
public business.
Later information about the presidential
train, which comes from railroad sources.
is to the effect that it Is slightly behind
its schedule and that it will not reach here
until 5:15 o'clock this afternoon.
