Uniform System for the Hills.

Miss Anna M. Walton, superinten-
dent of Meade county, has conceived a
plan in regard to the public school
book system that should be given IA
vorable consideration by the county
superintendent and boards of educa-
tion all over the Black Hills. It is to
secure a uniform system for the en-
tire Hills, instead of letting each coun-
ty adopt a system of its own. Miss
Walton was in Deadwood yesterday
comforting with Miss Kemper, superin-
tendent of Lawrence county, upon the
matter, and the idea met the latter's
unqualified appreciation. The other
Black Hills superintendents will be Sc
curing their endorsements, and in that
event a meeting will be held to decide
upon what system is the most desira-
BILE to adopt.-Deadwood Pioneer.
Well, we're not SO sure about this be-
ing the thing to do at this time. For
instance, if Fall River county adopts
for itself most of the text books now in
use in this county it will be great
deal cheaper for the people than it
would to adopt some other text books
simply for the sake of having "Black
Hills uniformity of text books" We
like the idea of uniformity" all right,
but we like economy better just now.
If general change must be made in
text books in this county, and in other
Black Hills counties, then scheme
for uniformity in all the Black Hills
counties would be commendable in
deed.

"A Dry Sunday.

Hot Springs was dry Sunday, the
first time since the opening of a saloon.
1t was not SO much out of respect fo1
Bouck and his license bill as it was
fear of each other that caused the sa-
looms to be closed. Like the old and
new towns, the saloon men don't love
each other, and one closes to force the
other to do likewise.-Deadwoo Pho
neer.
But the Pioneer is off in it's conclu-
sion that the old and new towns don't
love each other. There is none of that
feeling here any longer. There may
be an old and a new element-one
seeming to favor the idea of hauling
water in barrels, rather than have
water works, and the other is inclined
to favor new enterprise and modern
improvements.

The Keystone Mine Sold.

The deal transferring the we'll known
Keystone mine to an English syndicate
was consummated last Saturday,
which chronicles the largest mining
deal yet made in the Southean Hills,
says the Rapid City Journal. The
amount involved was not given out,
but it is known that the price was we'll
up in the six figures. This deal means
much for the Southern Hills under
proper management. 1t is simply a
low grade proposition, the develop
ment SO far showing body of ore of
mammoth proportions. Heretofore
lack of capital has handicapped the
proper working of the mine, but this
will now be done caway with as the
English syndicate has abundant means
to work the property as it should be
worked.
The Journal learned from the best
possible authority that aggressive
work under the auspices of the new
owners would be at once inaugurated
upon the property. Forty new stamps
will be at once added to the twenty
now in the mill and within few
months the number will be increased
to 100. Everything about the mine
will be increased and new features
looking toward u better working of the
property will be adde. as occasion
calls.
The consummation of this deal
means much to the Southern Hills di-
rectly and is of vast Importance to the
Black Hills as it will demonstrate that
there are plenty of mining propositions
that are to be found here that only
await the interest of capital to make
them paying investments of the most
desirable kind. When the fact be-
comes known, then the oft asserted
fact that the Black Hills is the richest
100 miles square in the world will be
amply verified.

Arabs Will Not Accept Any Gifts From
Their Desert Guests.
r. Talbot Kelly, an English artist
who has lived long among the Arabs,
writes and illustrates paper entitled
'sIn the Desert With the Bedouin, {"
which appears in The Century. In dis
cussing Arabian hospitality, Mr.. Kelly
says: 1 had not much time for quiet OBJ
servation, as one by one all the head
men Of the tribe called to pay their re-
spects to the stranger within their
gates" Taking off his shoes at the en-
trance. each one advanced with many
salaams and, kissing my hand, uttered
the single word, 'Mahubbah" c'Wel-
come"). They then seated themselves in
long row at the other side Of the tent,
discussing me in undertones. No one
spoke to me unaddressed, and even the
sheik himself. whose guest was, would
not sit on the carpet beside me unlimited.
Literally, while the guest If the Bedouin,
your tent is sacred, and all the tribe are

have repeatedly paid comparatively long
visits to them, I have never yet succeed

Tahoui, chief Of the Hanaarli Arabs, If
he knew any Of the pyramid Arabs at
Gizeh. he replied, splitting upon the
ground, They are not Bedouins; they
take backsheesh, >" thereby expressing his
contempt for mercenary service. On an
other occasion, while living with the
Nephaarta, the sheik Mansour Abu
Nasrullah had attached to me young
Arab whose special duty it was to at
tend to my various wants while paint
ing. At the end of the month 1 tried to
induce him to accept a sovereign as

he exclaimed: :'Oh, my master, I can

kill me if he knew had accepted q

persuade him to take the tip

Reception for Rev. Pearson,

A large number of the people
of the city were at the Gillespie
hotel last Friday night to unite with
the Presbyterians in extending well
come to Rev. Pearson. The pleasant
parlors of this hospitable hotel were
filled and very delightful evening was
enjoyed. After all had been intro
duced to the new pastor and bis pleas
ant wife, the gathering was entertained
with mandolin and guitar music by
Messrs. Carr, Pike and Cleaver. Pres
ident Lymer having been delegated to
extend the formal welcome to Rev.
Pearson and wife then arose and in
an eloquent and graceful manner told
why they we're glad to welcome such
people to Hot Springs. It was whole
hearted welcome by a big hearted
man from a kind-hearted people. Rev.
Pearson responded in gracious man
ner, and with eloquent words told how
he appreciated the warm welcome that
had been accorded himself and family
here in Hot Springs. He felt certain
that he would enjoy his residence here
among such people and he admired the
beauty of the surroundings of the
place. After these remarks the assem-
blage repaired to the dining room,
which had been cleared of the tables:
chairs had been placed entirely about
the room and were soon filed. Deli
cious ice cream and cake were served.

Something About osteopat,,y.

Mrs. DIR. Mary H. Connor expects to
be located in the Rylen block, on Min
nekahta avenue. this week, occupying
the west room, and will soon have the
entire lower floor. She will soon have
a gentleman assistant, who is an ex-
perienced diplomatic of Osteopathy.
She already has quite an extensive
business and is meeting with flattering
success, SO that it promises to grow to
become an enterprise of no small pro-
portions in our city-here particularly
as DIR. Connor believes the combina-
tion of climate, baths and osteopathy
form a marvellous remedy of natures
own laws that are unsurpassed. As
osteopathy is something of new sci
ence we give the following explanation
of it, given by an authority on the sub
ject:
"Osteopathy is ascience founded sole
ly and entirely on anatomy and physi-
ology. The osteopath views the human
form as machine faultlessly construc-
ted by the great Master Mechanic to
serve the human soul throughout a
long and useful existence on earth.
The osteopath, armed with perfect
knowledge of the mechanism of the
body, is prepared to see that this intri-
cate machine is kept in running order
with its parts all nicely adjusted, and
every function in natural harmony
with the whole. Health is the result of
such harmonious action of the system
when all parts are unirritated by any
cause, such as increased or diminished
flow of the blood in the arteries and
veins, or the nerve force; by the par
tial or complete dislocation of bones,
or displacement of muscles, tissues,
membranes, or any part of the human
body. The object of osteopathy is to
give perfect freedom to the flow of
electric or other fluid forces OF sub.
stances pertaining to life, and also
teaches the keeping and maintaining a
complete circuit of the forces of the
motor, sensory and sympathetic nerves,
to and from the brain and all the
organs, blood and other vessels, and all
parts Of the whole system which per.
tain to the nourishment, strength and
growth of bone and soft parts of the
body, the skin and all It's appendages.
Osteopathy is Gods natural law Of
healing. Every pain, swelling or IN.
