: SOUTH DAKOTA COPPER MINING:
Deadwood-Lead belt May Prove 1ts
Value.

Value.
Much interest is being taken in the
opening of the copper belt between
DeaGwood and Lead by ]. T. Gilmore
and associates. There are two prop
critics which are producing a fair grade
of copper pyriteS with some gold val
ues. The Elkhorn railway company
has put in spurs to each mine, and
about twenty-five tons Of ore are being
shipped from each mine daily to the
Deadwood sraelter, where it is used for
a tiuX. In the Gilmore mine the vein
of ore is about fifty feet wide and out
crops in large boulders of copper con-
elomerate, which carries values s1tfl-
GENTLY high to pay for working. The
vein is struck at the 100-foot level by a
tunnel, and there are some rich streaks
in the ore which run better than 5 per
cent copper. There is one two-foot
vein that will give an average of about
z per cen copper with several dollars
in gold. The Gilmore property extends
from the city limits of Deadwood, on
the southwest, to the limits Of Lead on
the norteast. 1t is all patented ground.
This is the same vein of ore on which
the Detroit & Deadwood company at
tempted to find copper on City creek,
not more than folr blocks from the
DeadW ood postotficc. The company
brought out a so-called Eastern ex-
pert to superintend things, and several
thousand dollars were s~quandered in
useless work i'll an endeavor to find
copper ore. Theoretically the vein
should have been found in a long tun-
mel that was run 900 feet into the
mountain, but old miners were of opin-
ion that the veins dipped out of the
tunnel. No copper ore was found, at
any rate, and the company was COM
PEELED to close down.
Blu copper ore has been found on the
properties south, without doubt. 1t is
believed that when water level has
been reached in the Gilmore mine that
the small verticals of copper ore will
have come together, forming n large
vein of pay ore. The mine can produce
fifty tons of ore per day at present for
fuxing purposes.
The Golden Reward smelter in Dead
wood is wanting concentrates. Since
the Homestead company began cyanid-
ing it's tailings, there has not been any
Homestead concentrates to use, and 1T
is a question just now, with the smelt-
ing company what to use in lieu or
them. The charges in the furnaces
work better when filled in solidly with
fpa aponn+rotac

ARGENTINE NEWSPAPERS,
There Has Been Much ProEress Of
Printing There Since the Jesuits
introduced 1t in 1908.

There Has Been Much Progress Of
Printing There Since the Jesuits
introduced 1t in 1908.
One feature Of the progress OF the
South American States Is the increase
of the number of magazines and news
papers. A recent issue of the Demo-
graphic Bulletin of the Argentine Re-
public gives some details of the devel-
opment Of printing n journalism In
that country. The article calls atten-
tion to the fac that the first printing
office in the region of the River Plate
was established in 1905 by some Jesuit
fathers at their missions in Paraguay.
They at first engraved blocks of wood.
and later separated wooden types. In
1775 they established the first printing
Office in the Argentine Republic proper.
That was at .Cordova. When the Jesuit
Fathers were driven out, two years at
ter that, the printing Office at Cordova
was abandoned, but 1t was transferred
was called the Printing Office Of the
Foundlings, as its earnings were APP
piled to the support of the foundlings.
1t was continued until 1924.
The first newspaper in Buenos Ayres
was the Mercantile telegraph, which
came out in 1901. At that time there
was no freedom for the press, but the
revolution of 1901 gave an impulse to
the publication of newspapers, and
from that time on h number kept
growing larger.
There are now 739 periodicals pub
lished in the country. OF these, "a are
dailies and 256 weeklies; 6S2 of them arc
Spanish, II are English, "a Italian and
French.

rs TAKEN.
FnE1tfve Convict Is Brought Down
by u Load of Bucksh0t.


Topeka, Kan, Nov. 10. - With the
capture Of Frank Thompson, the negro
leader of the federal penitentiary mu-
tiny of last Thursday, fourteen of the
twenty-six fugitive convicts have been
retaken.
Thompson was captured hear Coun-
Gil Grove last night by Deputy United
States Marshal Prescott and a posse of
farmers. He showed fight but was
brought down with a load Of buckshot.
Thompson is not dangerously woun-
ded, and will be returned to the peni-
Tertiary to-day.
The twelve convicts yet at large are
inspiring much fear among the inhab-
ttants of the country districts. OFF,
GERS are at work in a dozen counties
and as some report that they have
roups of convicts rounded up more
captures will be made in a few hours.
From Council Grove, where Thompson
was captured last night, six %convicts
have started to Cottonwood Falls and
are freely holding up and robbing peo-
pie and p%lundering farms all along the
route. Many have had encounters with
the men and people along the route are
Afraid to Venture
out OF tnelr houses. In Lyon county
citizens n officers are armed and are
patrolling the approaches to the town,
as the convicts will probably pass that
way.
Three suspected convicts were seen
boarding a freight train in Ottawa last
night and they are expected to drop off
near Emporia, where there is some
heavy timber suitable for hiding.
Near Usage City Deputy Warden
Lemon, with fourteen officers. is close
ly in touch with three %convicts whom
he expects to capture at any moment.
The sheriff Of Oswego is in pursuit
OF a convict who held up some men
there yesterday. The sheriff at Alma
reports that he has two suspected con-
victs surrounded.
The convicts are seemingly becoming
holder and are invading towns. In the
Union Pacific yards at Wamego last
night two convicts held up a man and
compelled him at the point of a revol-
YER to give them 1872. They then
boarded a freight train n went west
without any attempt being made to
capture them.

Cattle shipments from the north and
west are getting a swift start, though
November will be the crack Month in
this particular line of the business of
Central South Dakota.
Through cattle trains from Pierre to
Chicago, and from Cakes and the ad-
jacent country, passing through Huron

loaded cars per day to the Chicago
market. This means the payment to
the stock growers of about $40, 900 daily,
Of which the greater share goes to the
west, rather than to the north. And
there are other railroads..
People acquainted in the range coun-
try to the west and north may stroll

AN HONEST NAME.

An Illinois Statesman Tells . Good
StOry-Knew His Son
Would Not Lie.
The Honorable Alva Merrill of Chilli
Gothic, member for the Twenty-fourth
District State Of Illinois House of Rep
resentatives, tells an interesting story.
Some two years $50 Mr.. Merrill gave
a testimonial stating that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills cured his rheumatism. This,
with Mr.. Merrills portrait. were pub
Iished in thousands Of papers all over
the United States.
On the train returning home from
Springfield one day last winter were
the Honorable Mr.. Merrill and several
other members. After . time one OF
them said:
Merrill. what time do you. get to
Chilicothe?"
This attracted the attention Of an old
man who had been apparently await
ing some Identification Of Mr.. Merrill.
and as soon as he heard the name he
rushed UP to his seat and extended his
hand, saying:
"You are Alva Merrill, and you saved
INV life, I was most dead with Lumba-
GO, and in an advertisement I saw your
picture and your recommendation OF
Dodd's Kidney Pills. I knew your
rather, and I knew his son would not
lie, and, therefore. I decided to try the
Pills.
.I am satisfied that Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and nothing else, have saved my
life, and I have been waiting this OPP
rortunity to thank you personally, for
had / not seen your recommendation I
might never ave been led to- use this
remedy: but, thanks to God, through
your honest name and the honest medi-
cine which you so heartily recommend
ed, I am still alive.
