viii Not Disband.

In conformity with a resolution passed
at the regular meeting Of Gen. Steele
Post no. "a, G. A. r., the question of
~disbandment WAS discussed at a regular
meeting of the post on Monday night,
which resulted in a decision to continue
the organization.
For some time past the membership
Of the post, which has passed its twelfth
anniversary, has been gradually di-
minishing, and for the past few years,
have found it extremely difficult to meet
the expense necessarily incurred in
maintaining its organization. The loss
of their po.t hall by fire with all their
parapharnalia in July, 1895, was a seri-
Gus blow, bringing upon the depleted
membership the additional expense of
hall rent, and the replacing of such
articles OF pest property as we're indie.
psnsible in the continuance of their
organization.
The question of disbandment has
been under co~nderation for some time.
but il was a most painful one to the
members, who have been putting forth
most vigorous efforts to revive the post
with little or no success. Past Depart.
ment Commander Baker, of Hermosa.
n Of the most prominent and effective
Grand Army workers in the depart
ment. having been appraised of the in.
tention of the post to take up the matter
OF disbandment, notified Junior Vice
Commander Madison, Of Stufgis, and
requested his presence at the meeting.
which request was complied with. He
also put in an appearance at the meet
ing. bringing with him a delegation of
the Hermosa post, intent upon per-
~petuatine the life Of Gen. Steele post if
1t was within the range Of human pos
sibil:ty. and his range OF possibility
In the accomplishment Of any.
thing ia the interest of the Grand Army,
1t is unnecessary TO say, is almost be-
yond limitation. The situation was
from every confronting stand
point by members and visitors, and
through the eloquent and Impressive
appeal Of Comrade Baker. assisted by
Comrades Madison, Daniels and other
visiting members, the contemplated
surrender of the charter was abandoned.
and . decision reached favoring Z
further struggle to maintain il. The
good words spoken infused new life
into the membership. and there are
good and valid reasons for the belief
that the post win hereafter be much
more prosperous than II has been In
he immediate past.

Large Cave Near sundanee.

The Sundance. Gazette reports the
discovery of a large natural cave on
Browns ranch near Sundance. The
Gazette says: The entrance &c tho rave
is through a sink hole from the surface.
Once under ground the roof of The cave
il six to ten feet overhead. Near the
entrance a stream of cold, sparkling
water is encountered which traverses
the passage way for several hundred feet
and then disappears down a crevice IN
the floor With a roaring noise, terrifying
to a timid visitor. At a distance OF
about 500 feet from the entrance the
explorer found a subterranean lake OF
apparently still water. Deputy County
Treasurer Bush and Photographer Lyon
attempted to go through the lake. They
waded until the icy waters reached
their shoulders and then abandoned the
effort. Lumber will be taken into the
cave and a boat built, when another at
tempt will be made to pass beyond the
lake and complete the exploration OF
the cave"

Touching upon the merits of the ca

Touching upon the merits Of the ca n
didates for Judge of the Seventh Circuit,
the Pioneer-TiJnes in a recent issue,
says: The judicial campaign in the
seventh is interesting. Mr.. S. +. Will
son. of Hot Springs, an able lawyer and
a man Of high character and standing is
the Republican nominee. and Levi
MCGEE, Of Rapid City, is the choice of
the populists. Nothing can be said
against Judge MCGEE as a man except
that he has wasted to much time in
politics and in the production of anti
poverty lectures. This has been done
naturally at the expense of his legal
studies. If in both districts the voters
would look up the records of the candi.
dates in the court calendars and records.
their choice would be simplifed. II is
urged against Judge MCGEE that he has
had practically no experience before
the courts as n witty delegate put il,
"McGee will never have to call in an
other judge. he can't be disqualified as
he has never had a case before the
circuit court. How can we expect men
to make good judges who have yet TO
chow that they are even fair lawyers?
Mr.. Wilson should have a decisive
majority in the 9TH district if qualiica-
tons are TO determine the result.

How to Get Rich.

Now that the good times are march.
ing upon US, filling the farms and the
factory. and making the people cheerful
and the country glad, ii might be well
for all to remember that best way 10
profit by the depression of the last four
years is to save something out Of the
new prosperity for any other possible
season of idleness and distress. With
the vast abundance that this country
has known, the habit Of economy has
come slowly. Many have seen the
wisdom Of it. and they are our rich pso-
pie and the owners of our lands and
industries and banks and various profit
able properties. But the great majority
OF the people haye lived ub to their
incomes, and when the wages stopped.
or the wages ceased, grim want stalked
in. And so good men and well bred
women had to 60 to charity to keep
from starvation had to sacrifice their
pride and accept of the public bounty,
because in their days of prosperity they
had forgotten the future.
Saving comes easily when it is once
begun. Do not spend more than you
earn. When Peter Cooper earned a
dollar he lived on fifty cents Of it, and
the other successful mon will testify
how hard the struggle was to ave the
hrst money and how easy il was aftsr
the habit was formed. We are going TO
have four Of the greatest years the
world has ever known, but no one
should let that prospect deluds him in.
10 spending all he gets. There 10 safety
only in saving.-Lsslis's Weekly.

Held to the Grand Jury.

A Belle Fourche special to the Sioux
City Journal says: The preliminary
hearing Of the bank robbers, who give
their names as Tom Jones, Walter Put
ney and Frank Jones, was held in this
place yesterday and resulted in holding
all three to the grand jury for $4,000
each. Each of the prisoners was posi-
lively identified by three witnesses who
were present at the time the bank was
robbed. After the trial they were
taken to a photograph gallery, where
an attempt was made to have a picture
taken. The larger zones" brother
seriously objected to the operation, and
through his contortions made the at
tempt unsuccessful. The prisoners are
firm in their denials Of having had any
thing to do with the robbery. They
were taken back to the Deadwood Jail
in default of bail.
