DEADWOOD. S. D., Oct 24,-(Special) y
The government will soon be asked to de-
wise some means for tho destruction of the
bugs that are killing off the pine trees Of
the Black Hills For number years these
bugs, which arc about half an inch in length,
have been working away in some Of the best
bodies of trees in the country and there
are already great many acres of timber
totally destroyed.
II. G. Hamaker, forest supervisor of the
Black Hills reserve. went over into the Iron
creek district this week with his camera
and he expects to go to Washington in No
vember with photographs of the trees con-
tanning the bugs The bugs enter the trees
in swarms and soon have the sap taken,
which causes the death of the trees in a
few weeks. The bugs clean up everything.
They work in a circle and the forests in
many places have the appearance OF being
burned by fire. AS yet there seems to be
no bird or insect that will kill the de-
structive insects.

Rangers Effective Work.

The forest supervisor has laid off most
of the sixty rangers who have been scat
tered all over the Black Hills during the
last season. They have done effectual work
and many acres of timber land have been
saved from destruction by fire by them.
The money derived from the sale of wood
and timber has been sufficient to pay all
of the expenses of maintaining the reserve,
but the money cannot be used until the next
congress makes 1t available. The Black
Hills reserve contains about 10000 people,
including the Wyoming division. which is
several times larger than the other three
| reserves, the Yellowstone, Teton and Big
Horn. The Black Hills people are feeling
different toward the forest reserve move
ment and as a rule the advantages of having
the timber protected from fires and the
larger corporations are seen.

FIRE RECORD.
Fremont Hemp Company's NJ

FREMONT, Neb., Oct. 24.-(Special.)-
The Fremont Hemp companys mill caught
fire this morning from sparks from hot
box which fell into refuse. AS everything
about the place is Of highly combustible
nature the blaze spread through the struc-
ture so rapidly that the millhands had to
hurry to save themselves. The building was
soon in flames and will prove total loss.
The boilerhouse just north of the mill was
also considerably damaged and will probably
have to be torn down. The fire spread so
rapidly that the apparatus for flooding both
floors Of the building with water could not
be used.
The large two story brick warehouse about
thirty feet east of the mill and nearly filled
with baled hemp was in serious danger, but
was saved by the fire department. The
office building was slightly damaged. The
company estimates its loss at $4,000, with
81 900 insurance. The mill had been twice
burned before. The company has large
quantity of hemp on hand and the mill will
probably be rebuilt at once.

my Fellow Citizens: l deem it privilege
that am called upon as your representative
to express to our distinguished guest the
welcome which is extended to him by every
citizen of Omaha. We are all familiar
with his splendid military career. We know
of the skill and courage which won him
deserved promotion in the civil war in the
face of the fact that he was not a West
Pointer We know too of his remarkable
service to the great west in effectually con-
vincing the hostile Indians on the frontier

that the only safe policy for them was to
refrain from marauding, numbering and
pillaging. 1t was to the relentless energy
OF General Miles that the early settlers in
the sparsely populated west owed their i'm
munity from Indian depredatons His vgi-
lance made the lonely settler on the prairie
feel as safe as he had felt in his eastern
home ere he had set forth on his journey
to the western wilderness, which was des-
tined under his energies to blossom as the
rose 1t made possible this great exposi-
tion which displays to the world the splen-
did thrift, high intelligence and matchless
energy Of the citizens of the great west.
at is not strange that General Miles with
such ability and energy has reached the
highest position in the armies of this re-
public. As a strategist and as a leader of
men he has no superiors among the military
men OF the world today.
THE distinguished services of General
Miles in the resent war with Spain are
familiar to every school boy and have still
further endeared him to the hearts OF the
people.
General Miles, we are glad that you have
honored us by this visit. Your services in
the west have made all western people feel
as though you belonged to them.
"on behalf of all our citizens, I bid you
welcome to Omaha and trust that your visit
will be a pleasant one"
