WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

AS a preliminary to the exhibit
of Louisiana at the Worlds Fair
it is proposed TO celebrate the
centennial of the admission of
that state into the Union. The
date is Decem ber %, 1908. The
celebration will be held in New
Orleans.
The fact that all exhibit space
is free at the Worlds Fair and
that every reasonable facility will
be offered to exhibitors to get
their exhibits in place at small
expense is stimulating the inter.
est of manufacturers in the Fair
to a marked degree.
Little trace remains at the

Lightning Strikes a Derrick
and Flames Spread
Destruction,

A telephone message from
Miss Lodi Wilkins at 9 p. m. to-
day stated that a derrick and
two Oil tanks we're afre. The
derrick Of we'll No. 2 of the Jen-
nings Oil company was struck
by lightning and set aire and
at once the fire reached the two
Oil tanks of the same company,
and they went up like a flash.
Huge flames shot up and great
clouds of black smoke rolled out
from the fire. The amount of
damage has not yet been estim-
ated, but it will run up into a
good many thousand dollars, even
if the fire is confined to the Jen.
nings OIL company alone.

Gaping as we go to press. That

were here last Sunday, examining the
mares held here in quarantine. Six were
killed and post mortum examinations
made and in each case the disease, which
they term maladie du quit, was well de-
veloped, and in one or two cases, far ad
vanced DR.. Mohler obtained numerous
samples to take back to Washington
which will be developed in search of
germs. He also put in alcohol number
of diseased parts. They ordered Mr..
Drake, who is in the employ of the bu-
reau to kill five more, which he did the
next day. Mr.. Drake has received in
structions to inspect all herds and to cut
out all suspicious cases and place them
in quarantine. DR.. Mohler has the rep
utation of being an expert of renown,
and this disease is spreading to such an

Reason for Train DELAYS.

The Burlington passenger trains from
the south have been late almost every
day for the past month. 1t seems a
nuisance to many, but they shouldn't
forget that the company has been actual
ly overwhelmed with business Of late,
as the following item taken from the
Alliance Times would indicate:
"Some idea of the enormous business
handled in the railroad yards at Alli-
ance may be gained by the following
figures compiled from the records dur
ing August: Nine hundred and thirty
seven coaches were received, 934 for
warded, making total of 1871 for the
month. Stock cars received, 1912; 1888
forwarded; total 1896. Cars freight
$3.50 received; 6,673 forwarded; total
l3,403. Adding these totals, we find that
19,969 cars were handled during the
month of August, which is an increase ol
1851 cars over the previous month.
The increase in the number of cars oi
stock handled in August more than the
month of July is 1871. This business
has been handled by two engines during
the day and one engine during the night
with their crews, and means an average
of over 665 cars during every twenty four
hours. 1t is record Alliance may he
proud OF, for no city in the state, with
the exception of Omaha and Lincoln
can eqhal it,"

American Mining Congress, refers to
them as pre-cambrian, having been
formed prior to the cainbrian period
and the oldest gold deposits known. Re-
ferring to this formation here he says:
"This locality (the Black Hills) is the
most important of the deposits Of the
pre- cambrian age. The old schists of
Of the Black Hills in South Dakota, con-
tain fissure veins and seam belts of free
milling gold ores at places where erosion.
has removed the overlying sandstones.'
That the deposits are worked on large
scale and have yielded since discovery
in 1877 about $4,000, 900, and that the
yield is said to be assured for many
years. That extensive erosion has tax en-
place since the veins were formed. That
the surface of the land and veins have
been in some cases thousands of feet
above the level of the present workings
From which the professor draws the
conclusions that the present levels "are
the roots rather than the outcrops OF
veins. and this inspires belief in their
permanency" and that "the output of
the pre- -cambrian veins will probably
continue steady for many years."-Lead

AFTER THE TREE BUGS.
Circular From the Forest Supervisor

Circular From the Forest Supervisor to
Settlers and Others Interested.
To Owners of Patented Lands and Home
stead Claims Having Pine Trees
Thereon Within or Adjoining the Black
Hills Forest Reserve:
Gentlemen You are doubtless aware
OF the destruction of pine trees in the
Black Hills during recent years, caused
by what is known as the Bark Beetle,
and l write to enlist your aid in combat
ting this pest. Efforts made by the for.
est officers to destroy the beetle will be
practically useless without owners of
land upon which there are pine trees in
and adjacent to the reserve will render
such assistance as is in their power. The
observation of the forest officers, timber
men, and experts to the best methods to
be foIIowed to esteSnaiurtc- the beetle,
lead them TO believe that the cutting of
the beetle infected trees between now
and May lst, 1908, and peeling the bark
from the trunks and stumps will destroy
the young, and the eggs from which the
broods are hatched, and this, with the
assistance Of birds and other natural
causes will in very short time do away
with the beetle pest.
You will understand that efforts of this
kind confined only to the infested trees
upon the forest reserve will be of little
use without the owners of lands adjoin-
ing upon which there are beetle infested
trees pursue the same course. The trees
which you should cut can be readily told
by the pitch tubes which form after the
attacks of the beetle, the tops being
green. The cutting of the red and black
top trees will not avail (though it is quite
desirable that they also should be cut,
as there are no broods of BEETLES in them,
l will be only glad to give you the assis-
tance of forest ranger in designating
the trees which you should cut if you
desire it,
In this connection | would like to i'm
press Upon you the great benefit which
the forest derives from the birds, almost
all of which prey upon the beetles, and
to ask that you will prevent as far as
possible the shooting or trapping of birds
upon lands owned by you.
Very Respectfully,
SETH BULLOCK,
Forest Supervisor.

New Use for Refined Paraflne Wax.

A new and important use for Refined
Paraffine Wax seems to have been dis
covered by prominent resident Of
Ohio, living fear Lancaster, who had
two trees badly damaged by storm, one
being a maple and the other an apple.
In each case large limb was broken
down from the trunk, but still attached
to it. The Limbs were propped up and
fastened securely with straps, very much
as broken leg might be fastened with
splints, and then melted refined wax
poured into and over all the cracks. The
surgical operation" was entirely success
full. The Paraffine prevented the escape
of the sap, kept out the rain and mois-
ture which would have rotted the trees,
prevpnted the depredatinns of insects
and the limbs seem thus far to be per-
fectly re-attached to the trees.

two car loads of ore is being taken out

The Lead Call is authority for the
statement that Otto Grantz has recently
purchased half interest in the Grover

run from $50 to 500 per ton. Mr.. Grantz
has started exploration work on the
property.
LEROY.
Work is steadily progressing on this
property with the most encouraging
prospect for the final development Of a
valuable mine. The shaft, which has
shown a good grade of ore from the sur
face with constant improvement in
quality, has now reached depth of 30
feet. The company, encouraged by the
excellent prospects of future success,
have commenced the erection of build
ing upon the property, and further i'm
proyements now under contemplation
will be the order in the near future.
Recent tests of the ore encountered at a
depth of about so feet show marked inn
