tion and will doubtless be admitted
to bail until the next session OF
court for Lyman county.
1t was expected that Sully would
be taken before Judge Smith here
but Sheriff Swindler and attorney
Preston accompanied their prisoner
on to Chamberlain and will turn
him over to the officers Of the law i'm
Lyman county. Mr.. Preston said he
expected a little trouble with the
prisoner but Sully finally concluded
to return to the state without re-
quisitjon papers, thinking he would
rather take his chances with a jury
in Lyman county than in Nebraska
Mr.. Preston stated that Sully had
about SO head of cattle in his posses
sion in the vicinity of Verdigreep
(which were shipped to Omaha last
Saturday. The inspector of Cattle
for that region followed the Cattle
into Omaha and there discovered
that they we're all branded cattle,
and were impressed with the brand
of John @. Anderson, and number
of other cattlemen on the range west
of Chamberlain. He had driven the
animals, evidently, that far away
from the reservation.
Mr.. Preston stated last night that
Sully's partner, Fletcher, rode into
Verdigree about II O'Clock and he
was at once placed under arrest, and
will be tried at Verdigree.

JACK suLlY ARRESTED
The Famous Cattle Rustler Arrested
in Nebraska and Brought to
Mitchell This Afternoon.

p .s
(From Thursdays Daily)
Sheriff Swindler and FL. G. Preston
arrived in the city this afternoon
from Verdigree, Neb., accompanied
by Jack Sully, where the sheriff sue
ceeded in getting hold of the famous
cattle rustler.
Sheriff Swindler received informa-
tion few days ago of the arrest of
Sully at Verdigree, Neb., on the
charge of stealing cattle in that
vicinity. Tuesday the sheriff went
Ito Verdigree and found his man.
Yesterday the Sheriff wired for At
torney Preston to come to that point,
and that. his assistance was needed.
There was little trouble in getting
possession of Sully and the party
drove to the Missouri river and
crossed over to Running Water to
take the train for Mitchell.
! Sheriff Swindler feels some salts
faction in getting possession of Jack
Sully, for during February in COM
pany with Capt. Jack Crawford he
chased Sully for week over the
preservation. He had a bench warrant
| for the arrest of the famous rustler.
At that time circuit court was in
session for Lyman county at Oacoma
and Sully was wanted on the charge
lof cattle rustling, but it.was difficult
to get him on account of his having
SO many friends on the reservation
that gave him the tip to make him
self scarce. II Sheriff Swnidler could
have secured the prisoner at that
time he would have had trial, al
though there was small possibility OF
: convicting him, as was the case with
a number Of other rustlers out that
way, who escaped the clutches of the
law by reason of having the settlers
out that way pretty we'll intimidatec
and they were --afriad of the ven
geance Of the ruslters should any OF
, them be convicted.
How long Sully has been down ir
Nebraska is not known but it il
reported that he followed the sam,
business of cattle stealing there tina
he did on the reservation 1t il
also stated that he stole 70 head O
cattle in the vicinity of Verdlgre
and the officers of the law got afte
him too quick for him to make hi
; escape, and the chances are that nov
, .he will have to answer to the officer
5 in South Dakota for the crime
? which are charged against him il
3 Lyman county.
The capture of Sully is most i'm
portant one, as he is recognized as tn
leader Of the rustlers on the reserva
t tion AND with him taken care of be
: hind the prison walls the cattleme
on the reserve feel that in grea
i measure the rustling gang will b

ELASTIC BANDS GUST STRING.
Cheaper Than String in Some Uses
Tons of Them Sold.

From the New York Sun.
NO. said a rubber goods dealer who
had been asked about the sale Of elastic
bands, I'VE don't exactly sell them by the
ton, but there are tons of them sold in the
course of the year. Originally designed
more especially for a convenient binder for
bundles of documents and that sort OF
thing. they are now used for great var
iety of purposes in place of string. They
are used to put around packages and bun
dies in stores, more especially small pack
ages, as IL drug stores.
They are used by many manufacturers
to put around things of various kinds
which otherwise would be tied I'D. Jr,
many of these uses, aside from their con-
yenience and their attractiveness as a part
OF the parcel, they are cheaper than string
because the use of them saves so much
time. A rubber band can be wrapped
around package in much less time than
1t can be tied up. Rubber bands in OLD
times used to be sold by the dozen; now.
as You know, they are sold by the pound
but you don't have to buy a pound YOU
can puy an ounce, or half an ounce, for
that matter.
How many bands to a pound? Well.
that depends, of course, on the size of the
bands. The biggest, heaviest bands used
run only twelve bands to the pound; the
smallest, tiny little band called an cleo
ton ring, from their use around punches
OF ballots, number thousands to the pound
Most people buy bands of gray rubber
out nowadays there are not few who
prefer the bands of the more modern terra
Gotta color.
Il never heard an elastic band play. but
there sure TO De music in the air when
the small boy gets out with his beanshoot-
er. which he makes by attaching rubber
oand to the prongs of a wishbone-shaped
handle; this being one of the uses of eIss-
tie bands that l forgot to mention"

= STAMP PERFORATION,
The Inventor Received IA Comparative
Trife for His Idea

From the London News.
We take the perforation of stamps and
check books and papers generally so much
as matter of course that it is difficult to
realize that this simple process of perfo-
ration was all unknown fifty years ago or
thereabouts. Until January, 1854, postage
stamps were issued in sheets which the
purchaser had to cut up in any way he
found most convenient. 1t is interesting to
see how the idea grew. First, there was
a suggestion by an unknown outsider adj
dressed to Sir Rowland Hill, showing that
deep line all around each stamp were
cut IN the plates from which the stamps
We're printed the paper would be creased
by the power of the printing press so that
the labels might be torn apart without
dlihculty. Whether it was tried or not we
DO not know, but. anyway, nothing came
OF it. That was in 1871.
DIX or seven years later an Irishman
improved on the idea and came forward
with machine for cutting little Sits all
around each stamp. This appears to have
been tried by the postal authorities but
Ior some reason or other did not work and
though the inventor went to consiaerable
expense and trouble in modifying the ma
chime SO as to meet the objections it was
never adopted by the government The

MATURING WHISKY.
A New Process for ArtfficiaIy "Aging'
the Beverage.

| From tie London Chronicle.
New whisky is admitted to be noxious
drink. A lengthy process of maturation in
| sherry casks is required to make it whole
| some beverage, and the longer the matura-
ton the better the spirit becomes. At a
meeting of the Society of Chemical Indus
| try, held last evening at Burlington House,
Professor J. T. Hewitt of the East London
Technical College dealt with this subject
in paper of great technical value.
He pointed out that the badness of new
whisky is due to the presence of certain
poisonous substances. known chemically as
aldehydeS, which, in ordinary language,
were generally grouped together, with some
other substances, as fusel oil. As far back
as 1881 Sir Thomas Lauder Brunton had
told the spirit commission that the most
dangerous of these substances was that
called furfurol. 1t was not, however. as
Professor Hewitt explained, difficult to de-
tect the presence of furfurol in whisky, the
process being the simple one of adding a
little aniline and acetic acid to the spirit.
If furfurol were present, the mixture turn
ed to a bright pink, and the pink became
deeper in color according to the amount of
furfurol which the spirit contained. There
was, of course, one way of eliminating
these poisonous aidehydes and that was
the long and costly process of storing whis-
ky in casks for several years, preferably in
casks that had contained sherry. The pro-
deal of the alcohol was lost, and the spirit
consequently became weaker, while there
was also of necessity a, loss of interest on
the capital laid out while the whisky was
during several years. Economic
also entered into the prob
lem, for this maturing process added con-
siderab bly, to the cost of the whisky by the |
time it reached The consumer.
The irresistible conclusion, therefore, was \
that the cheaper a whisky was the more |
poison it contained Innumerable attempts |
had been made to hasten the process of /
the maturation of whisky, both out of con- |
sideration for the public health and in the |
interests of the manufacturer. From /
these two points of view it was extremely /
aesira BILE. Professor Hewitt contended, that /
some effective means should be discovered |
Of Riding this beverage of ) poisonous /
quickly. and in such a fash
on that even the cheapest whisky might |
lot have the results which the consumption
If cheap or unmatured whisky by the poor
n classes undoubtedly entailed.
This result, Professor Hewitt declared, he
lad attained. by adding certain chemical
substances to the pot STILL" The result |
If the addition was that chemical combi-
lation was formed with the noxious aide
lydes, which remained in the STILL and thus
he whisky was distilled over quite pure.
