Notwithstanding the fact that wet and
disagreeable weather prevailed during
the entire three days of the Soldiers and
Sailors reunion at Belle Fourche last
week, there was a large attendance
every day, and the ADVERTISED program
was fully carried out. The rain did not
seem to dampen the ardor of the old
vets, who participated in the exercises
of the occasion, every feature of
which proved to be interesting and en-
tertaining. The citizens of Belle
Fourche extended every courtesy to the
visitors, doing every thing possible for
their comfort. Deadwood was chosen
as the place for the holding Of the next
meeting, the exact date of which has
not yet been determined.

From, the Chronicle, C7IcGgo, III.

Five years ago last winter, there was con-
siderable commotion on the banks of the
White River, Wisconsin, IS 4 young man
named E. \. Halleck, had broken through
the ice, and was for some moments lost TO
view. 1t was not long, however, before Mr..
Halleck came in sight again, and by artistic
means was fshed from the fluid and restored
to society. Ii the ducking had been all, It
would have been well, but unfortunately
the young gentleman contracted heavy
cold, resulting IN chronic rheumatism, conf
plcated with disease of kidney and urinary

INHUMAN PRACTICES.
Heartless Beings Who Deserve the
Severest Punishment.

Dan. Miller, Officer of the Humane
Society had his hands full yesterday.
He killed two decrepit horses whose
lives had become miserable through
disease and hard usage
He found a horse dying at Seven
teenth and Y streets, where it's owner
mad abandoned it to it's fate. This,
he says, was case of extreme cruelty.
and if he can trace up the heartless
person who turned out the poor brute
after he had got all the work possible
out of the creature he will make him
suffer for it. Mr.. Miller says he de-
sires to warn persons who thus aban-
don their wOrn-out horses to die OF
starvation that-Humane Officer as he
is-he will show them as little mercy as
they show their poor beasts if he can
catch them at such practices
Mr.. Miller also found a dead horse in
the water at Seventh street and the
north levee yesterday. and as he had
no knowledge of any city official who
makes 1t his duty to look after the pro-
lection of the city water from pollu-
ton, he had the carcass pulled out of
the water and sent to the boneyard
Last Sunday he caused a diseased
COW at 1419 F street to be killed, and
now he Is looking after an Italian that
has been treating his dog in most

The dog has been chained to a kind

starved dog was trying to eat up it's

tillans. In wet fog the particles are

stillans. In wet fog the particles are
apt to be larger than in dry fog. A
still further division, due, we believe,
to Robert Fl. Scott, is anti-cyclonic fog,
or fog in which no rain falls, while the
temperature, generally low in the
morning, continues to rise during the
day, and cyclonic fog, in which rain
does occur, while the temperature re-
mains about stationary. Before leav
ing these town fogs We may notice the
part played by them in affecting the
health of the community. Mr. Scott
has given figures showing the mortal
ity from diseases of the respiratory
system for some of the more memoir
able fogs of London. We have room
for but one of the many periods he
gives. From January 2Oth to Febru-
airy u, 1880. London experienced eight
days of fog. The average tempera-
ture at O'Clock in the morning was
70 degrees Fahrenheit. The total death
rate was 4S.1 per 1,0O0, a rate un-
equaled since the last cholera epidemic,
and there were no less than ! 1,3oI
deaths from diseases of the respiratory
organs 1t is not always an easy mat
ter to trace direct relationship even
where the statistics are carefully gath
cred but there can be little doubt that
these town fogs are unwholesome. In
directly they affect the health of the
community in a way few would mag
inc. a town fog is an excellent trap for
noxious gases. holding them close 10
the ground. Dr. r. Barnes. studying
this question, found, by inspection of
gas plants near London, that in foggy
weather the escaping gas was held in
concentrated form in and near the
works. There are other sources Of
contamination in foul emanations from
the ground. sewers, etc. On clear,
bright days, even if no wind is blow
ing, the law of diffusion of gases acts
more effectively and helps disperse the

\ convenient though not strictly
scientific classification of fog types is,
sea or coast fog, valley or hill fog, and
town or dust fog. The last named has
been given the euphonic designation,

Rev. Clement Ley, VINO gave a large
portion Of mis- life to cloud study, says,
in his book on "Cloudland" that in

plain and very important The belief
is entertained that the. rivers can be
greatly improved and their navigability
largely restored, at a cost that is really
insignificant compared with the bene-
flcent results that must flow from such
work. 1t is proposed to make inquiry
into the system employed by the FED
eral Government engineers upon the
use it or some similar means in treat
ment of the Sacramento and San Joa-
quin Rivers. Even if that is done there
will remain enough for the Federal Gov
ernment to do in the lire of it's duty to

The San Francisco "Bulletins' Sac
ramento correspondent says that op-
ponents of the State rock crushing
plant are using the fact that thus far
very little rock has been used on country
roads, for all it is worth. Well, the fact
is worth very little. The plant has been
in operation but six months. The coun-
ties have not had time yet to provide
for construction of roads under the new
system. 1t takes certain legal pro-
cesses to get the system into operation.
However, that no country roads of
considerable extent have been built in
the last six months, three of which
have been rain months, is no argument
whatever. The plant has been kept
busy nlling the subscribed orders the
law required to be made as a condition
precedent to establishing the plant.
Those subscriptions were made and the
orders are now being filled. But what
earthly good reason can be advanced
for the proposition that cities should
not be allowed to improve their streets
after the macadam process with rock
from the plant and thus give employ
ment to hundreds of street builders,
teamsters and curb layers, who other
wise will remain idle?
