registered at the Evans Monday night
Mr.. Galbraith from Dawson City, N.
w. T., and Mrs. Galbraith and children
from Sturgis. MIR. Galbraith has just
returned from Dawson City where he
has spent nineteen months in mining
He has two very fine claims, one of
which he located and the other he pur-
chased. He began taking out gold on
his own location in three days after he
located it and it has been paying big
ever since. He employs twenty-three
men on both claims all the time. The
weather there is not so bad as most
people imagine. 1t gets cold during
the winter but there is no wind and
not great amount of snow. He says
AL. Field and some of the others who
went from the Hills to Dawson City
had not been very successful up to the
time he left, but were hopeful and
would doubtless yet come out with
lots of money. Mr.. Galbraith made
the journey from Dawson city to Dead.

hard trip either The construction of
the railroad over the worst part of the
distance from Skaguay to Dawson

enough to make a 'clean up on his
mines, though he expects to retain his
interests there, and will make occasion.

Want Private Board

Mrs. Thornby desires to know who
will take teachers to board during the
Black Hills Teachers Institute-July
"a to August 2-and at what rates.
See her or write her soon as possible
as she desires to arrange her list.
These teachers are not bondholders
and those who can take them should
make as low rate as possible. A low
rate for board was promised them in
order to get the institute here and now
Hot Springs will do the right thing and
make reasonable prices. Private fam
lilies who do not make practice of
keeping boarders but who can do SO in
this instance, would show an accomo-
dating, hospitable spirit by taking two
or more teachers at moderate rates.

can do,

wisconsin Editors Coming May e7th.


H. M. Youmans, publisher of the
Waukesha (Wis.) Freeman, spent last
Friday in the city making arrange.
ments for the coming of the Wisconsin
Press association. They will arrive in
Hot Springs the morning of May 81
and remain until the morning of the
Goth, when they will go north to take
in the northern Hills towns and min
ing belt. Mr.. Youmans says there will
be between seventy five and one hun
dred of the editors and their wives.
They will come in chartered sleeping
cars, which they retain throughout
their journey. The excursion will
come over the Elkhorn road. Mr..
Youmans thought the editors would
not make the side trips into the east
ern part of the state, as urged to do by
many towns over there. They cannot
spare the time. The editors are out
for fine time, and when they arrive
here Hot Springs people should aid
them in having it. They will be here
two days and two nights. Wind Cave
will be one of the points of interest
they will visit while here.

An Incident Which illustrates the
French Character.
Speaking of French politics, l heard
most extraordinary story of another
strange secret of contemporary life
Some years ago one might see in a res
taurant at night, playing dominos
quietly or conyersing i'll tranquil tones,
Q gentleman named Levy. He was
man who knew more of the secret his
tory of tho courts of Europe than any
man of his time. To get full account
Of his personality and history you must
spend an evening with Joe Lyons, the
owner of the Trocadero and q score of
other restaurants, one of the most brill
liant raconteurs as we'll as one of the
best fellows in all London. Mr.. Levy
was private detective. employed when.
ever a task Of extreme delicacy and
enormous Importance was on hand. He
was retained by the Bank of England,
among other institutions, and I have
heard that his services were esteemed
SO valuable that he got the magnificent
salary of e10,0 q year from that in.
stitution.
Well, just after the downfall Of the
commune Mr.. Levy was intrusted with
one of the most delicate and, I might
say, terrible missions in his life. There
were several communist refugees in
London. Levy tracked them out. A
man of the world, without enthusiasms,
acquainted with all the seamy side Of
life and Of man, he yet had a broad.
sympathetic imagination, and he was
astounded by the picture he found in
the miserable den-if remember right
~ it was q stable-in which he discov.
cred the objects Of his search. These
men, who but few weeks before had
the government and the revenues of the
great city Of Paris at their command,
were engaged in making wretched
bowl Of soup, which was to be the one
meal-and the one meal Of them all
for "a hours. Not one penny had stuck
to their palms Of all the millions that
were at their meroyl "These men may
be madmen." he said to friend to
whom he told the story, 'but, accord
ing to their lights, they are patriots!"
His wonder grew as they refused
scornfully to surrender some papers
which had fallen into their possession,
in spite Of dazzling offers Of gold,
which. as agent Of the French govern.
ment, he was authorized to offer them.
They knew the horror and the terrible
and appalling Importance Of the domes.
tic secret in the life of great man Of
which they held proofs. but they decid.
ed to keep the proofs until they thought
it right or wrong to publish the story
to the world. And, though they refused
the gold, they never told the secret, and
France and Europe were saved one Of
the most cruel and devastating scandals
of our times.-New York Herald.

Mr.. G. w. Garbutt, Forest Superin-

Sir:-Respecting the matter of the
effect of sheep grazing within the

with the exception of q small band of
about hundred, which have since
been taken off; and that none should
be allowed therein, as their presence
would result in serious injury to both
the forest growth and the water sup
ply.
In view of these reports, it has been
determined not to admit sheep within
this reserve. You will, accordingly,
direct your Supervisor and Rangers in
charge of this reserve to see to the en-
forcement of existing regulations in
the matter, as found in paragraph ID
on page five of circular of June 30,
1897, containing regulations governing
Forest Reserves. Very respectfully,
B1NaER HERMANN, Commissioner.

Tie Wind Cave Case.

John Stabler says the decision re-
ported on the Wind Cave contest is
only by the Rapid City land officers,
and not by the secretary of the gener-
al land office, as has been reported.
This is encouraging to Mr. Stabler's
friends who have felt that he was en-
titled to decision. He is confident
that the general land Office will give
them a decision.
