The outlook for important purchases
and development of mineral lands are
more fattering since the 10th of June
than has been felt in the Black Hills
for many years before. The falling off,
so to speak. of every disposition on the
part of investors to enter into negotia-
tions for property after war was de-.
clared with Spain was, to say the least,
becoming alarming, and apprehension
was felt to no small extent by the busi-
ness men of the Hills, tn at serious de-
preston would in all likelihood be the
result This condition Of the public
mind. we feel gratified to announce. is
being rapidly dispelled, and from the
extraordinary suddeness of the change
for the better, we feel constrained to
believe that the mineral interests Of the
Black Hills are on the eve Of a tremend.
Gus increase in values. The demand
for bonafide properties which will stand
investigation is growing with such ra-
pidily that it will not be great while
before the mining communities will
witness the coming into existence min
ing enterprises of vast magnitude. 1t is
not alone the American investors that
are wholly responsible for the present
remarkable activity, but recent commu.
nications which have come to this office
direct from London and Paris, positive
ly indicate that no such desire has
heretofore been manifested toward the
purchase Of lands containing the pre-
cious metals in the United States as that
now shown by the French and English
investors.-Mining Review.

Death of Jonn Ennia.
BAKERvILLE, S. d., June 20, 1898


BAKERvILLE, S. d., June 20, 1898.
EDITOR CHRONICLE:
Last Sunday evening at IL o'clock
John Ennis. a well known and highly
respected citizen of this place, died after
an illness of seven weeks. On June
10th, 1896, he received an injury from
which he never fully recovered. A
valve ofthe heart was said to have been
ruptured. His last illness was not
thought at first to be Of serious nature
until malarial fever set in from which
time his death was momentarily ex.
pected. He became unconscious last
Friday, and remained so until death re-
lieved him Of his terrible suffering
His numerous friends surrounded his
bed side and did all IN their power to
alleviate his suffering. Sometime be-
fore his death he expressed himself as
not being afraid to die. Deceased was
a kind and considerate friend to every
one who made his acquaintance.
In 1893 he was married to Miss Alice
Smith, who has been a most devoted
and loying wife. After marrying he
settled upon his ranch and followed the
occupation of farming. When Dr.
Alvin Herbert of this place was laid to
rest last July the deceased said, "who of
us shall be next?" Little was thought
that be would be the next to answer
the call of the messenger Of death. He
has repeatedly expressed his OPT nion
that he was not long for this world. He
was born in Schmung Co., New York,
on the 10th day of April, 1861. When
years old his parents moved to Iowa
and remained there until 1887, when
they came to the Black Hills. He is
survived by his wife and one child, his
father and mother, a sister, and two
brothers. The sister and one brother
reside in Iowa.
The funeral services were conducted
at the Cold Springs school house by the
Rev. Mr.. Bondurant on Monday after.
noon, who preached an eloquent and
pathetic sermon. A large concourse o.
people were present, to pay their fare
well respects to the departed A. G
Baker, Charles Reder, Quint Renolds
G. s. Parker, A. G. Roseberry and VIM
F. Sayars carried the remains and con
signed them to their last resting place
at the Cold Springs cemetery. TIL,
floral tributes by friends were numer
Gus and handsome.
| He has gone to rest forever,
In peace he sweetly sleeps
Has gone before the loved ones,
His golden reward to reap.
Weep not for him, dear loved ones,
For he is safely DER,
Where suffering cannot reach him
where death can come no more.
| 'Tis sad TO part with one,
With one we dearly love
But Jesus called Is him to come
And dwell with him above
| Then cease to weep for him
| Who's gone to a land so fair,
For he in peace awaits you
To meet him over there

Gen. DaMson's Sword.
w. Il. SAYARS.

Captain Bullock, commander of A
troop, Third United States volunteer
cavalry, was yesterday presented with
the sword Of Gen. a. r. q. Dawson, that
the latter carried during four years OF
the civil war. The presentation oc-
Cured in the Deadwood club, and was
simple, though very affecting. 1t was
the desire of Mrs. Bennett and Mrs
Gibson, sisters of the gallant General
Dawson, that Captain Bullock, one oil
the generals warmest friends in life,
wear the blade, and the presentation
was accordingly arranged. But few
witnessed the scene, but those who
were there came away with moist eyes.
Captain Bullock, in regulation fatigue
attire, received the sword from the
hands of Judge Bennett, who admonish-
ed him to bring it back from the war
untarnished or to let it come back on
his coffin lid. Captain Bullock at
tempted but a brief reply expressing q
determination to comply with the
behest, and confidence that he had a
hundred men at his back who would
see him through. He tenderfy took the
blade of his old friend, a priceless relic
of one of the bravest careers on record,
and none can doubt that it will be
braYely borne.-Independent.

The Mines of the PHILIPPINES.

The following article on the mineral
resources of the PHILIPPINE Islands was
recently sent to the Mining and Indus
trial Reporter by one who claims to
know from experience
"We hear Of the PHILIPPINES in a
vague sort Of way, and merely assume
that they are small group of islands,
inhabited by few sayages. But to
give one an idea of the mineral wealth
alone, hear what one who has had ex-
perience there has to say There is
mineral and metal everywhere, and
especially great quantities Of gold. The
small streams have an abundance offree
gold, and the mountains are a perfect
tangle of small lodges, some very rich
rock, too have known Of some that
run as high seven ounces to the
ton. This seems strange at first to think
that such valuable gold fields lie idle,
but when one considers the difficulties
and dangers one has to subject himself
to, one can see why heretofore they
have not been worked. The people of
these islands are just ten centuries be-
hind the times, and there is no syste-
matte mining carried on there; And
then for various reasons it is almost
impossible to even prospect the interior.
This wild jungle of a country is inhabit-
ed by small tribes of very savage natives
who are as ferocious as beasts. From
these there is no governmental protec-
ton. Then, too. it is hard to hold a
claim, as no titles can be attained.
Then, too, there is a great overgrowth
Of foliage, and it is practically impene-
trable. Now that the stars and stripes
float over this section Of rich terra frma,
some enterprising capitalist will get in
and you will see one of the richest min
ing countries yet discovered. 1t will
take endurance and capital to make a
winner of it, though. But success is
sure to come, as the ore is all of such
high grade. The nature Of the ore is
as rule, highly refractory and sui
phide. Again. labor can be had for @
mere pittance. All combined, the sol
dier boys who are soon to sail toward
the setting sun will find rich mineral
country in which to 60 to mining az
soon as this cruel war is over"
