Quick Action.

A prominent mining superintendent
started from Deadwood one Monday
morning at sos over the Burlington
Route for Denver, for the purpose of
buying machinery for the Spanish R.
mine, in the Carbonate district. He ar
rived at Denver at ll:30 of the same day,
stayed in the sleeper until morning and
then bought all of the machinery needed
and was ready to return home. He en-
tered the sleeper at the usual bed time
and the following morning was in Me-
braska, arriving in Deadwood Wednes-
day at 6:l5 p. m. The trip was made in
three days and two nights. The ma
chinery purchased at Denver arrived
thirty-six hours after 1t was purchased
and was taken out to the mine and set
up before the end of the week. The
Black Hills people are just commencing
to realize what this short-line from
Deadwood to Denver means. Colorado
people are beginning to send in more
commercial men, and several large min
ing deals have been consummated.-

Eastern parties are figuring for q cya.
nide plant at Custer, says the Black Hills
Mining Review of the 25th. At present
there Is no custom ore treating plant in
the Southern Hills. The plant that was
built at Mystic, in which a new process
to the Hills was experimental with, has
been closed down for several months
and nobody seems to know whether it
was a success or not. The successful
work Of the cyanide process upon the
ores of the Northern Hills, has set cap
italists to thinking why such process
would not also treat the great bodies Of
low grade ore that have been exposed
in Pennington and Custer counties. In
Custer county for example, there is one
ledge Of ore that has been very thor
oughly developed. that Is over $50 feet
wide. and it can be traced for several
miles. The value of the ore is about So
per ton, too low to treat by any Of the
older processes, since 1t is not strictly
free-milling. Tests made on the ore by
the cyanide process, show it to be
ameanable to It. With large capacity
plant, this proposition would be hard to
beat any where. Some Michigan capi-
talists are planning to put in a big Gus.
tom mill at Custer.

as county charge, claiming him to be
an INDECENT person. Mcdonald. who is
SO years Of age, claimed that he had

plaintiff judgment for $ll7O, a portion
Of which was adjudged to be lien on
the cattle. After the fling Of the report
Mastick claimed to have sold the cattle
to his nephew, and they together under.
took to ship the cattle out of the state to
avoid the payment of the judgment.
Bower, under his adjudicated lien had
the two Mastick's arrested for the lar
ceny of the cattle, and the cattle were
held until that action was decided in
favor of Mastick, when they were seized
on execution. Fred Mastick replevied
the cattle, but Bower furnished bond
and the sale proceeded. AS it looks the
old man has come into possession of his
property. Proceedings will be at once

The Storm.

The heaviest snowfall so far recorded
this winter in this vicinity. and the Hills
generally, occurred last Saturday and
Sunday. The storm extended into Ne
braska and eastern Colorado, causing
blockades on all the railroads into the
Hills. The Burlington passenger due
here from the east at $3.50 p. m. Sunday
did not arrive until o'clock Tuesday
morning. The plains of western Ne
braska and eastern Colorado are report
ed to be strewn with thousands OF dead
caetls, sheep and horses as a result Of
the storm. In the northern Hills the
snow fall is said to have been from two
to four feet. This moisture will be Of
incalculable benefit to cattle men and
farmers as 1t will put the ground in fine
shape for springs work. There has
been hardly any snow all winter, and
the country was becoming exceedingly
dry.
