A N atural Wonder.

Last week, about three miles north of
Wind Caye, and across Beaver creek,
says the Hot Springs Herald, peculiar
natural wonder was discovered. Messrs.
Petty, Cramer and Thomas have formed
company to develop some very
promising claims and selected sites for
two shafts Mr.. Cramer suggested one
location, that owing to the appearance
Of internal disturbance. boulders lying
about in a manner that would indicate
their being thrown up by upheaval, and
shaft was commenced. Blasting was
commenced and when down about 10
feet rock was taken that assays s. gold.
They went down but little further when
they broke through into natural chin
ney about three feet across and extend
ing to China so far as their ability to
sound it has determined. Charley
Fallon climbed down about 40 feet and
found no evidence of any end of the
shaft. The walls are spiral shaped like
an auger and are blackened with
internal fires. The most curious yarie-
ties of mineral bearing rock have been
found and specimens are now at
Cramer's shop awaiting close examina-
ton and selection for assay. The most
curious of all is black stone that pull
verzes readily in the fingers, leaving a
black oily stain like plumbago They
have sent away some Of the best quartz

The natural chimney will afford the
party most excellent opportunity tc
find out what there is in the earth there
and is a most lucky find. The average
prospector is obliged to go to an endless
amount of expense with diamond drills
or shaft sinking to determine the char
acter of the rock underground, but this
company finds the work already done
by Dame Nature. The persistent pros
pecting now being done in this vicinity
and between here and Pringe viii
surely prove that the mineral belt is not
so far from our city as believed in the
past.

Right You Are.

The following, taken from recent
issue Of the Sioux City Journal, may be
safely accepted as correct outline of
the existing situation in the HILLS, every
word Of which will bear the most rigid
test Of investigation
Great expectations have been awak-
ened in the Black Hills regarding min
ing development in that region during
the ensuing season. 1t is little early
yet in most districts, as snow has not
yet disappeared, but there is every rea
son to anticipate that the season will be
one Of unusual mining activity and
prosperity. There were many discov-
cries last year of rich gold rock, for the
utilization of which preparations have
been and are being made There is no
doubt whatever, either, of the richness
or Of the large extent of these gold
bearing rocks Nor can there be doubt
that there is splendid field for pros
pecting in the Hills country"

William ]. Bryan is reported as hav-
ing said in Washington few days ago,
that, If the commissioners fail to secure
an international conference or if sue
cessful and an international conference
does not secure foreign co. operation for
the restoration ofbimetallism, the cause
of free silver will be stronger in 1900
than in 1896, because many who have
been inclined to rely on foreign aid
will see the necessity Of self-reliance on
the part of the people of the United
States. Mr.. Bryan evidently does not
stop to consider the very important fact
that among the "many who have been
inclined to rely on foreign aid," there
are really but precious few who are
hankering after free silver upon any
other terms than such as have been
provided for in the republican platform,
and who in the event of failure on the
part of the commission, would still as
persistently refuse to adopt his inde-
pendent policy of going it alone.

excellent satisfaction both TO inmates of

Deadwood has a pioneer cat, Old jim,
brought from Cheyenne in 1876. This
is said to be the only pioneer cat in the
Hills, and it is entirely proper that it
should be located in that place which is
headquarters for old pioneer societies.
and where meetings of that character
are invariably held. Cats coming to the
Hills later than December 3lst, 1876, are
classed rs tender feet, and are not
eligible TO a place on the pioneer list.
