Hack Hills Mica.

" Deadwood, S. D., Feb. 26.-The mica
industry Of the Southern Black Hills is
rapidly assuming considerable impor-
lance. Not until the past year has the
real value of the mica deposits become
known The Chicago Mica company
which has extensive cutting works at
Valparaiso, Ind, has bought up all the
old mica dumps around the county
buying in all about nine car loads, for
which $40 per ton was paid. The com
pany now has three mines Of it's own
and is shipping about five car loads OF
mica per month. The largest mica
blocks ever found in the Black Hills
have been taken out by this company
from the DAILY mine, located two miles
northeast of Custer. The Black hills
mica is not as a usual thing very clear,
but it is free from iron, which makes
it of especial value for electrical pur-
noses. fsf5s 81 }sy fe* IN tEt 5sss

they drove in abreast OF David Ste

peace with the world or with himself
than he had been when he turned into
the High street, out of the quiet road
in which Palace Mansions may be
found.
Still faithful to Master Dick, or else

thought Lord Aylmer, with sneer,
as he gave a sharp, keen look at the

when he watched her after she left
him and before she disappeared into
Palace Mansions, he had realized that
she had gone from him forever. He
realized that whether she was actually
married or not, she was not for him,
and he had suddenly become aware,
almost without knowing why, that
there was a cause for her altered looks
"a cause which would be forever a bar

aside as naught for the sake Of a spe-
cious tongue and staggering, army
sort of manner
AS matter of fact, Dick had not the
very smallest shade of swagger about
him, but David Stevenson was the kind
of man who. invariably judges every
man by a type, and to him an army
man was man who turned his toes
out good deal more than was neces-
sary and said "Haw!" after every
three words he spoke. That the man
who had stolen Dorothys love from
him did neither Of these things made
no difference to David's conception OF
him. He had stolen Dorothy from
him. and that was enough to make
David endow him in his own mind with
all the most hateful attributes of his
detestabie class.
Nor did he even stop to consider that
he was distinctly unjust in crediting
Harris with stealing Dorothy's love
from him. For 1t is impossible to steal
from any man what that man had
never had to lose. and most emphati-
cally he had never possessed one little
tiny corner of Dorothy Strode's heart;
to be plain, Dorothy had always de-
tested him.

he muttered. as they passed him for
the twentieth time; then he stood at
the ratings minute or two and
thought how slow it was-Wondered
how men and women could bear to
crawl up and down in line, fretting
their fine horses into fever and never
getting beyond foot's pace. x

Human Mechanism Requires Lubricant,

"Oil Is always required for lubricat-
ing, and the human machine Is not an
exception says Mrs. S. T. Rorer, tell
ing how dyspepsia may be cured, in the
Ladies Home Journal. Fats, however,
must in cases of intestinal indigestion
be used sparingly and carefully. Ten
drops OF pure olive oil once day may
be taken either after the noon or night
meal. 1t may be put on spiece of
bread and thoroughly masticated. Well
made butter is an exceedingly good
form of fat, but should be used without
salt. A teaspoonful Of cream taken
slowly, held in the mouth and then
swallowed, will also answer the pur-
pose. Bear in mind that small guam

ministered is much more easily borne

FOR SURVEY WORK
IN THE ISLANDS

Prof. w. ID. Alexander. head of the
United States Geological Survey Blu
reau in Hawaii, who returned in the
Sierra. brought back with him from
Washington large amount of infor-
nation concerning the plans of the
United States Geological Survey for
these Islands. An appropriation OF 500
900 has been asked by the survey de-
partment with which to commence
thorough Investigations in the group.
The appropriation will be asked of
Congress at its present session, and
the probability is that the amount ask
ed for will be set apart
Under this appropriation valuable
scientific Investigations can be made
here In line with the exhaustive work
done by the survey in all parts of the
United States Professor Alexander
was impressed with the high character
of the men in the geological survey
under the Department of the Interior
and the coast and geodetic survey I'M
der the Treasury Department.
He does not believe that the depart
ment will do much for Hawaii for
the present as its attention is directed
to the Philippines, where a majority
OF the best men in the survey seeyce
are now engaged. The question of
whether this work in the Philippines
should be conducted by the coast sur
vey or the navy, led to a disagreement
between the two houses of Congress
The coast survey finally won. The
work is a great undertaking on ae-
count of the incorrect and incomplete
Spanish charts of the archipelago.
Professor Alexander points to an
achievement of the survey department
just completed, which is complete
measurement of the longest line
across the United States, accomplished
by perfectly organized system of tri-
angulation with accurately chained
base lines, giving a greater are of the
earths surface than ever measured be-
fore elsewhere. The list compiled by
Professor Alexander of the geographic
cal points, places and objects in the
Islands was placed in the hands of the
chief of the survey department in
Washington, and will shortly be pub
lished. During his trip Professor AL
exander attended the Yale bicentennial
celebration being one of the graduates
of that institution.

INTERESTING TALK
ONCHURCH AFFAIRS

~ OF A STICK of the church Prop
erty and not a dollar is involved
~ in the merging of the Anglican
church into the Protestant Episcopal
church in the United States" said
Bishop Willis yesterday evening in
talking over the affairs Of the Diocese.
There is but one transfer, and that is
Of the jurisdiction of the Anglican to
the American Protestan: church, moth
ing more nor less.
IAN impression has gained strength
in the islands. and especially among
people who have not studied The mat
ter, that the transfer of the property
belonging to the Anglican church cor
poration will be an intricate affair.
This is not the case at all. II Is the
simplest matter in the world, and the
action taken recently by the Synod in
adopting the amended charter to read
Protestant church in the United
States from that of Anglican ami
conforming TO the American prayer
book, has completely paved the way for
the change that is to lake place in
