Jos Dennis has taken the contract
for the construction of the Eighth
street bridge for $780, 1t will be two
feet higher than the old one. He eX-
poets TO have it finished by the middle
of next week.
1t has been suggested that the fire
companies of the city would be willing
to use the funds which they recently
got from the state toward replacing
the bridges. This would be very
commendable thing for them to do.
If they have no immediate use for the
money, for expenses already incurred,
the suggestion is we'll worthy consid-
grafton by the boys.
While speaking of this bridge mat
ter, we notice that the railroad bridge
just south of the Evans is still clogged
up, among the pillng, with all sorts of
rubbish that was stopped there during
the recent high water. This should be
cleared out and the stream given as
free passageway as possible. The rail-
roads should have been compelled, if
possible, to construct their bridges so
as to leave as wide channel as is left
by the city bridges, at least. But so
long as that was not done, and may
not be soon, the rubbish should be
cleared out of the channel.
Jos. Dennis secnred the contract for
rebuilding the foot bridge across the
creek at the union depot and finished
neat and substantial structure We'd

The Bicyclers Return.

Quite an excitement was occasioned
Saturday evening by the arrival about
6:3O on their wheels of Frank Lane
and Howell Matthias, who bave been
on an extended bicycling trip, as the
previous columns of this paper will
show. They looked travelstained and
somewhat the worse for wear, or at
least as though they had seen some
hard riding. Howell looked hearty
and rugged, but Frank looked a little
tired. They came from Cascade yes
terday, distance of seventy-three
miles. The longest distance they
travelled in one day was eighty-five
miles and the longest half days ride
was sixty two and one-half miles. The
boys have so much to talk about that
they can entertain their friends for
weeks. Howell says he is going again to
the National Park, but will take q
wagon and horses next time.-Rapid
City Journal.
The young men stopped in Hot
Springs short time Saturday. They
had covered a distance, when here. of
2,1oo miles since leaving Rapid City on
June 10th.

you may hear the tinkling, splashing
of a mountain rill; and this, with time,
works out such wreckage! Time and
against the world = Climb that ridge

Yonder is Custer's peak and Terry's

see the city of Deadwood, the smoke of
whose torment-ed furnaces rises for
ever and ever, floating in the azure air,
while all between us are unnamed
ranges of mountains and hills, silent
billowy masses of green. Sometimes
the mists gather around these granite
walls and pillars, and the night is vex-
ed with storm.
GAIL through the darkness the thun-
der rolls about you and the lightning
seems to crash in one continuous py-
rstechnic. You think the bolt has
smitten every needle of spire-tipped
Harney, and you almost hear the flying
splinters of the riven granite; but the
morning comes, fresh, cool, serene, the
great powders in silent majesty tower
around untouched, unscathed; not one
bows diminished head. Where in

The 1sloomer Girls Coming.

On Saturday of this week, the Bloom
er base ball club, composed of nine
ladies, will be in this city to cross bats
with the local team. Manager Juckett
has been exerting himself this week to
get the boys out to practice for they
would feel SO awful cheap to have these
girls whitewash them completely. The
Bloomer girls have made quite a repu-
tation as ball players and our boys
may we'll be little nervous. The
game will be called at 3 o'clock at Col
lege Hill Athletic Park, and those who
attend will no doubt be we'll repaid.
The Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin
says of recent game there with the
Bloomer Girls: yesterday about 900
people witnessed the ball game between
the Bloomer base ball club and the
James Morgans. The spectators eX-
pected to see regular burlesque on
the game, but they were disappointed.
The young women can handle them
selves in a surprising manner. OF
course they did not make any phe-
nominal plays, such as are to be seen
at league games, but considering the
fact that their sex is not adapted to
such violent work they did remarka
bly, we'll. The score was 10 to 10 in
favor of the Morgans."
The following will probably comprise
the local team, though it is subject to
some changes: Dalby, catcher; Kellar,
pitcher; Juckett, 1st base; c. Stewart,
2nd base; Geo. LeelS, short stop; Hay
den, 3rd base; Harry Cleaver, left field;
II. Stewart. center field; Arthur Vim
cent or Jay Moore, right field. Judge
Juckett being the only horrid old mar
ried man in the aggregation is probably
the only one that won't get ratified all
to pieces. The gay advertising dodgers
declare that "the Boston bellies in
bloomers bright will bat the ball clear
out of sight," and that's just what wor-
ries the friends of the boys, yet the
boys insist that they propose to make
the girls climb the fence part of the
time.

The Republican Primaries Demonstrate
the Fact that No Individual Has
the Party in His Pocket.

However much the ambitions of some
people might have desired it otherwise,
the result of last Saturdays republican
primaries were not conducive to the
idea that any man is ''entitled" to die
tate his own nomination. From all
that we can learn the delegates elected
to the county convention are mostly
opposed to instruction. The following
are the delegates chosen so far as we
can learn:
Hot SPRINGS.
First ward delegates-S. z. Wilson
and j. \. Stanley.
Alternates-J. w. Pike and w. r.
Morgan
Second ward delegates-A. S. Stew
art. James Bradley. A. r. Anderson,
Clark Rorapaugh and John Tennis.
Third ward delegates-Samuel s.

w. Z. Zollinger and f. L. Evans.
Alternates-J. j. McCurdy, John A
Rylen, Joseph Vincent, John L. Burke
and j. H. Watts.
Fourth ward delegates-W. L. Jud-
kins and Il. d. Hummell.

test between Wilson and Anderson tn,
former has carried it by several dele
gates.

stock shipping from the Hills.

The stock shipping season has com
menced in earnest says the Pioneer
Times. Although the stockraisers had
intended to hold their cattle this sea-
son until later than usual the high
market has been an irresistible incen-
tive to sell and the herds are being
rounded up as fast as possible for
shipment. The Elkhorn took four
trains east from Belle Fourche on Sun
day and six yesterday, three of the
Franklin Livestock company and three
of the Three V company. The Hash
Knife will ship several trains today
1t is said the Ellhorn has borrowed 30
heavy locomotives from the Union Pa
cific, which will be brought up here
and used in the stock business. The
company anticipates larger business
than ever before.
The Burlington is handling a much
larger stock business from points in
Wyoming than any previous season at
this period. This company is taking
from four to six trains day east, the
trains consisting of at least 20 cars. II
is estimated that 100000 head will be
shipped this fall, which at an average
price of s32 will amount to s7,OOO.OOO
the product of this industry for &
season.

The Pierce Deal.

A party of Englishmen, about four
teen in number, have secured accom-
modations at the Bullock hotel and
are expected to arrive in a few days, to
make the final investigation of proper
ties and titles of properties involved in
the enormous transaction known as the
"Pierce DEAL" The property, mostly,
at least, is situated on the divide
northwest of Lead and adjoining the
Homestake properties. With this party
will be several of the most celebrated
mining engineers in the world and
legal and financial representatives of
the prospective purchasers. They are
the principal owners in what is known
as the Associations Company, Linn
ited," of London, and it is said they
own more capital than the Bank of
England. This company owns 81
propositions throughout the world and
each one consists of a large tract of
ground and is a producing property.
The properties are in South Africa,
Australia, New Zealand and almost
every country in the world but the
United States. They are Englishmen
entirely. It is said that Mr.. Pierce's
representations were modest and that
subsequent Investigations were graft
flying and warrant the belief that the
final examinations soon to be made
will exceed the former ones and that
the deal is practically made. Attorney
Wilson has been busy securing exten-
sions of 80 days from September 1st on
the properties, which were readily
given by the owners. This is to afford
plenty of time to examine titles and
put all details in perfect shape. It
the wish of everyone that the deal will
be made and that the company will
make scccess of their venture
