Discovered New Lithla Springs.

The Star learns that a new spring
has been discovered in the country,
about twelve miles from Hot Springs,
which, if reports are true, promise to
be an important factor in bringing
health-seekers this way. Jas. w. Shcp-
herd, the founder of "Shep's Canyon"
has all the time known that a very
prolific spring was on his ranch, but as
the water did not taste very good he
has not used it. A few weeks ago an
old Indian was discovered carrying off
some of the water, and upon being
questioned by Mr.. Shepherd the Indian
explained that they had used the water
for years and that it cured certain dis
eases. Mr.. Shepherd Immediately sent
a small quantity to New York to be
analysed, and n favorable statement as
to the water came back, with a request
to send a larger quantity. This was
done a short time ago a reply was re-
ceived, which was in effect that it was
the finest lithia water in the country,
making it especially efficaciaus in kid
ney troubles Bright's disease. And
now Mr.. Shepherd and Jacob Bingham
who owns a half interest in the spring,
have gone to work and are building a
stone spring house and otherwise pre-
pairing to do business-which they can
no doubt do if this report of the analy-
sis is correct. We can not vouch tor the
correctness of this story but one of our
correspondents is looking into it and
will no doubt keep the Star readers
posted.-uot Springs Star.

Disastrous Storms,

The storms which have occurred in
the last ten days, have proved quite dis.
astrous IN many places. On Friday
Hot Springs was visited by a water spot,
carrying everything before it. The rail.
road track was much damaged in many
places, both on the b. q NJ. and also the
Elkhorn roads. 1t took out the bridges
on Fall river, washed away houses and
badly injured the famous plunge bath
house. One man by the name OF
Bernard Williams who was a teacher at
Pine Ridge was drowned.
AT Sturgis a man by the name OF
Frank Gardner, a piano player in one
of the Deadwood theatres, was struck
with lightning while standing III an
open door and instantly killed. 1t was
learned that his home was in Marshall
Town, Iowa. aDa his age was twenty
four years. In many parts of the Hills
we hear Of damaging ~washouts. The
trains have been delayed to some ex.
tent, and telegraphic communications
temporarily cut ofin many places. Yes
we have been getting plenty of rain
lately, and we bid 1t welcome, but easy
Mr.. weather clerk, please draw it easy.

Mr.. Henry Robinson, president of tie
Akron NJ, NJ. q NJ. Co accompanied by
his wife, daughter and sister, arrived on
Saturday last from Akron, Ohio. Mr..
Il. has shipped to their factory in tho
last month 10000 pounds of machinery
for the grinding and manufacturing of
mica, graphite, feldspar, and mineral
pa ints. The last car arrived about the
middle Of the week and consists Of a
pulverizer in the form Of a boiler and of
emmense capacity. A more extended
description of which will be given in
our next issue. Mr.. X. thinks they will
have all the machinery in place and be
ready to run continuously in a few
weeks. When asked why the business
at this end Of the line had been seem
ingly neglected, Mr.. r. replied that he
had been having more business thrown
on TO his hands than he could possibly
attend to and do it justice. 1t will be
remembered that when Mr.. r. was
here last time he was called home sud
denly by the intelligence Of the burn
ing of the company's factory at Akron
in which they sustained a heavy loss.
Since then his partner, and brother,
who was also n member Of the firm,
have 10Th, died, leaving him alone to
manage their extensive business. This
answer should wrest from this COM
munity all reason for complaint and
in its place command our sympathy.

The Excursion,

The EpTorth League excursion from
Deadwood and vicinity to Sylvan lake
which had been previously announced
arrived here by special train at ter
o'clock Wednesday morning. A sufi
cient number Of carriages, and impro
vised coaches with spring seats
upholstered with blankets and gayly
decked with bunting, were ready to re-
ceive them and they were soon on Their
way to the popular resort.
The number who got Off the train here
was said to be 2l0, which number were
reinforced at this point by about q
more, and altogether they were q jolly
crowd. The morning was bright ant
the skies bid fair for a perfect day. Blu
the time at the lake was short and the
arder Of the party vas dampened by {
shower Of rain at IL o'clock the time
they arrived at the lake, which continu
ed for nearly two hours. They had time
to get their dinners az the hotel and
look around a little, but not much, fol
the grass was wet, the trees were drip.
ping, the peaks were veIled in mist
and the towering rocks were weeping
copious tears, because they were caugh'
at a disadvantage, and could not appear
at their best. They saw enough, how
ever, to give them a foretaste of wha'
wal concealed, and they will all wan.
to return upon some brighter day anc
feast their eyes upon the sublime beau
ties of this picturesque resort. The
party we're surprised when they returned
to find there had been no rain here, and
that all the while they were envelopeC
in clouds, Custer was basking in the
happy sunshine.
Everything passed of pleasantly how
eyer, and owing to the efficient manage
ment of Nr, c. c. Crazy and his assist
ants, no hitch, or accident occurred tc

had received no notification Of thei,

Miss Herrick delivered a lecture at
the Methodist church on Monday even
ing. The subject was Social Purity"
and our card read For Men Only" As
we did not not need any lecture on that
point, and rs we didn't think that an
unmarried Miss could know much about
a man anyhow, We said to ourself We
will "let this cup pass by" The fact Of
the matter was, we were afraid of being
bored. But those who attended and
listened to the lady, said they were well
entertained, and that she really did
know something about those great
clumsy he things" but how she eyer
found it out We are still unable to con-
ceive. Hiss Herrick gave another
lecture on Thursday afternoon at 8
o'clock to women only.

L,ehtnine's Strange Freaks.

The new house on the hill owned and
occupied by Mr.. +. A. Towner was
struck by lightning last Sunday, and the
familiar way in which it wandered
around through the different rooms was
q curiosity. 1t is a large house with at
least a dozen rooms, and the lightning
visited and left its mark in every room
save one.
1t commenced at the chimney and
tore away the upper part Of the brick
work 1t then descended 10 the roof,
and tore off the shingles for a space
seven feet in length, and two feet wide.
1t then passed through into a bed room
nea one corner, and followed the gilt
edge Of the border Of the paper around
and passed through the wall into the
next, and so on through every bed room
into the upper part of the house. 1t
then passed down the chimney 20 the
parlor blowing the SCOT out on 20 the
carpeted floor, tore a piece from the
moulding Of the piano, ripped the paper
in many places and passed on to the
sitting room, when it cayorted around
tearing the paper on the walls and
scorching it in many places. From
there it passed to the kitchen. and then
to the pantry, where it played with the
tinware until it grew tired. 1t then
found its yay TO the cellar where il be-
came discouraged and quit.
Judging from the thorough search
which it made through the building, it
was evidently looking for some member
of the family upon whom to display its
power. But IN this it made a mistake
as the whole family were away attend
ing derine worship, and thus in all pro-
liability prolonged their stay in this
wicked world. Moral-Go to church on
Sunday.
