A, d, Clark,
G.. w. ROBBINS.

Since writing the obituary in our last
weeks issue, we have learned something
of the particulars of the lamentable
affair which are these. 1t was after
the dinner hour and the children with
the exception Of the youngest child, who
has the measles, were at school. Mrs.
Clark had an engagement out for the
afternoon and she said to her husband
that she would 60 il he would take care
Of the little one. In response to this sug-
gestion Mr.. Clark said he would carry
the child across the street to the home
of his mother This arrangement was
agreed upon and the child was taken
to its grandmother's by Mr.. Clark, who
returned at once to his home. Mrs.
Clark left the house soon afterward, it
| being about two o'clock in the after
noon, and this was the last time Mr..
| Clark was seen aliye.
Sometime after four o'clock Frank
Clark, the thirteen-year old son of the
deceased, arrived at home from school
and found the doors locked. He en-
tered the house through window and
in room on the upper floor was hor-
ror stricken on finding the dead body
of his father, sitting upright in a chair
The boy at once gave the alarm and a
physician was sent for. DR.. Evans who
was among the first to arrive at the
scene Of the tragedy, gives the follow.
ing account: Il found Mr.. Clark sit
| ting in Il chair near the south side oi
the room and quite dead. His right
hand hung downward by his side and
near it, upon the floor, lay 3S-calibre
revolver, one chamber of which had
been discharged. Upon examination
/ found bullet wound in the head
just above the right ear. The ball
! passed clear through the head, emerg.
ing at point about two inches above
the left ear, and the ball was afterwards
found sticking in the wall of the room
In my opinion death was instantAne'
GUS"
In the absence of the coroner an in.
quest was held by Justice Heinen, the
jurymen being L. A. Carleton, A. Con.
ner and }. II. Funk, who returned q
verdict in accordance with the above
facts.

GoYerncr Lees Letter.

Following is the gist of the commu.
nication addressed by the governor to
President Mckinley, regarding the re-
lease Of the volunteers:
His Excellency, William Mckinley,
President of the United States, WASH
ington, ID. c., Sir: In obedience to what
| believe to be the almost universal
wish of the people of my state, desire
to request the early return to the United
States Of the First South Dakota volun-
teer infantry now engaged under Gen.
Otis in war against the inhabitants Of
the island Of Luzon. This regiment was
mustered into the service of the United
States nearly year ago, when your ex
cellency called upon South Dakota for
volunteers to defend the flag of our COM
mon country IT, war undertaken in the
interest of humanity against the king
dom of Spain. The soldiers of the
First South Dakota enlisted in the war
against Spain, which war was concluded
some time since by the signing of the
Paris treaty of peace. The task for
which they entered the service has been
completed We view their
present or future retention in the SER
vice as unconstitutional, and violation
of the law which called the organization
into being, and we feel quite certain
that your excellency will not hold them
in the service, against their will, against
the law which terminated their service
with the close Of the war, and against
the moral sense of the people of our
state without at least offering some sound
reason for so doing The hun
dreds of relatives and thousands of
friends of this regiment would willingly
bear the loss of the best manhood of the
state if they felt that our soldiers were
fighting to defend our homes and fire.
sides, or to save the union of states and
preserve our institutions, or to expel
despotism from any quarter of the earth /;
but they have reason to regard the
further sacrifice Of our soldiers in con-
flict waged against liberty and in the in
terest of exploiting capitalism as totally
incompatible with the spirit of our in
stitutions and more grevious hardship
than we should be compelledto to bear.
am with great respect,
(Signed) ANDREW e. LEE,
Governor of South Dakota,

A Collision Averted.

The Burlington passenger train into
Deadwood narrowly escaped head end
collision with freight train yesterday
on the hill just this side of Nahant, says
the Pioneer-Times of last Sunday, and
had the two trains come together it
would have been a costly wreck. The
fault lay with the station agent at Roch-
ford, the last station before reaching
Nahant, coming this way, in neglecting
to give the necessary orders to the pas
senger train to head in at Nahant and
wait for freight 204 which was going
the other way, pulled bv engine No 333,
one Of the largest and heaviest locomo-
tives made. The passenger engineer
was Ed Sarver. The train had been
running on time all day, and as there
were no orders at either Rockford or
Nahant, he thought there was to be clear
sailing all the way into Deadwood. At.
ter he had climbed we'll up the grade,
he saw the freight train tearing down
the grade towards him, not 800 feet away
evidently trying to make Nahant ahead
of the passenger. He applied the air,
threw his reverse lever clear over, and
told his fireman to jump, at the same
time giving the alarm with the whistle.
The freight train was by crossing at
the time and raising fearful clowd Of
dust, so that the cab OF the big engine
was almost obscared. There was no

Pay chutes in the Flat Formation.

In the issue of the 9Th inst we gave q
brief description Of the way the pay
chutes occur in the states, or the vertical
veins of the Black Hills. In this paper
We shall fill the brief space allotted to us
in answering the question which has
been propounded to us. How do you
account for the pay chutes in the quartz.
ties and shales where the formation is
fat" Easy enough. The same theory
applies. Look for your best ore VIII er
ever you find the mineral water has had
the best chance to percolate. Where
you find the best ore you will always
find, If you look close, crack or seam
in your hanging wall. Follow this seam
and keep it in the centre of your tunnel.
You will fnd your richest ore immedia-
tely under this seam, and the further
yon get away from it the poorer an
thinner is your ore chute. Again, If
you find in penetrating deeper into the
mountain that this ore seam is begin
ming to be crossed with other seams,
then look out for good body of ore.
that is, if you are on the right strata.
What l mean by the right strata is this
You must look for the strata which is
the most open and porous to receive
and absorb this solution, and at the
same time the formation must be Of a
character which has the greatest affinity
for the mineral you are looking for. If
you are looking for gold you will be
most likely to find it in the silicious
shales or the coarser grained sandstone.
If you are looking for silver your best
chance is where the limestone and
porphyry come in contact. If you were
asking my advice l would say, never
run your tunnel very far into a fiat for
nation unless You are carrying an ore
seam overhead, and even then never
expect much until you find your roof
crossed and checked up by other seams,
for these are the sources Of your min.
eral. From these seams your mineral
has been dripping for perhaps ten thous-
and years, for nature takes no account
of time.

Adjutant General Corbin says that the
war department are doing all in their
power to hasten the mastering out OF
the volunteers in the PHILIPPINES. How
ever it is absurd to think they can be
discharged before their places are filed
by regular troops. He thinks the presi,
dent will be lie to consistently issue
the order for their discharge within the
next 80 days, and tnat most Of the vol.
unteers will be on their way back 10y
the middle of May. 1t is thought that
man. will reinlist, for as many as do
