in Chief of the G.. A. r. and S. of
", besides many other officials and
dignitaries of the nation. We had
the good fortune to secure snap shot
photographs of many of these promi-
nent men and of different sections of
the parade, as well as of most of the
buildings and scenes visited on the
trip. After the passing of the process
sion, we made the trip to Georgetown,
a suburb which antedates the founding
OF Washington, its first building being
erected in 1889, and about which
cling many historic "reminiscences
Fort Myer. one of the most important
army posts, little city of officers
quarters, dormitories, practice build
ings, drill fields, etc.
Next we arrived at Arlington. the
famous national cemetery, where rests
the mortal remains of 1900 soldiers
who died in the civil war. 1t is stu
ated on commanding eminence over
looking across the Potomac the beauti-
full city of Washington. Notable
among its sacred shrines are the
Graves of the Unknown Dead, The
Temple of Fame, the AmphitheaIre
and Rostrum, the graves of various
we'll known army officers of the civil
and Spanish American wars, and Ar
lington House. The latter was built
in 1902 by George Washington Parke
Custis, son of John Parke Custis,
whose widowed mother became Mrs.
Martha Washington, When Col. Custis
died at the siege of Yorktown, Wash
ington adopted his two children, G..
w. P. Custis and Eleanor Parke
Custis. After the death of Mrs.
Washington, Custis removed to Arling-
ton, and at his death the estate passed
to his granddaughter, Mary Custis
Lee, wife of Col. Robert E. Lee. of
the Z. S. army. At the opening OF
the civil war the latter resigned from
the Federal army and moved his
family to Richmond, Va, where he
later became Commander-in-C Chief of
the Confederate army. The property
in 1877 passed into the hands of the
United States by purchase, who now
control it as a national cemetery.
The next morning we inspected the
Washington Navy Yard, and among
other things saw the gun shop, where
the large and small guns for use on
the vessels are made; the cartridge
shop, where men were engaged in
making brass cartridges three feet III
length; we then went aboard the q.
S. s. Hartford, which was Admiral
Farragut's flagship during the civil
war, and is now used as training
vessel. The afternoon was spent
about the Capitol and Library of Con.
gress. and at 6 30 p. IN. we boarded
the palatial steamer Washington
for ride down the Potomac river and
Chesapeake Bay to Old Point Comfort,
and from thence to Richmond, Va. II
was night ride which was without
special incident, going past President
Roosevelt's yacht, Alexandria, Mt.
| Vernon, Fort Washington, Washing
toms birthplace and many other hi'
torical points. Arriving at Old Poin
Comfort in the morning we landed
and after viewing the magnificent anC
immense hotels, and Fortress Monroe
a large fort with many soldiers ant
excellent coast defences, we started TO
Richmond. 1t was beautiful da.
and the ride was delightful. The frs
point of interest reached was Hamp
ton, a bustling little town, near whicl

Mining Items.

We are indebted to Judge Feay, vice
president of the Leroy Mining company,
for a specimen of ore from the Leroy
mine. The ore is white, blush quartz,
and carries high values in gold.
The large inyoice of mining machin-
cry recently purchased in Chicago by

loaded at Berne station, from where il
will be transported by wagons to the
mine at once and installed for operation
in the development of that very promis-
ing property.

rich strike on the famous Otto Grantz
mine near Lead recently acquired by the

Grantz lead from which that gentleman
made fortune few years ago.

purpose of pushing several cases against
offenders Of the game laws who have
been shipping game out of the state, has
succeeded in securing several indict-

mehts against ]. E. Neagle, who is &C.
cused of having shipped game out of the
state. This case comes from Tripp. One
against William Jennings of Chamber.

One against H. T. Berker, who shipped
game to the outside from Elk Point.
One against J. Fl. Troch, who also after
killing game birds In South Dakota
shipped then to outside parties and
places.
The practice of slaughtering game and
shipping to outside points has become
more than common on the east side Of
the state, and it was found necessary to
adopt strong measures to stop it. A few
convictions and fines will have tend
ency to stop this practice.

let the men chosen be tried and true,
whose integrity and ability can not be
questioned,
