STUDENTS ON A LARK.
Pretend to Hang a Student Who Ma
Beinu Initiated.

6eIn9 Initiated.
Madison, Wis, Dec. ga party OF
fraternity boys of the university threw
the clerks and guests of the Avenue
hotel into a panic last night by re-
alistically hanging one of their number
in a back room in the basement of the
hotel.
The vistim was being initiated into
a Greek letter society, and the boys
had arranged a mock hanging as part
of the ceremony. After having i'm
bibed freely Of refreshments the party
proceeded to hang the man being in
itiated. They took a strong rope, a
little heavier than a clothes line, and
suspended him from a hook in the cell
ing. At this time the bartender came
into the room, and, thinking the novice
was really being hanged, secured a
butcher knife and cut him down. The
boys became boisterous and the pro-
prietor of the buffet induced them to
go home. The affair gave rise to the
rumor that a student had bee nadci-
dentally hanged by some of his friends
during an i%nitiatory ceremony.

THE SHIPMENT OF GOLD,
United States Assay Office at Dead.
wood Does a Bio Business,


A shipment of gold bullion worth
$1S5,204.64 has just been made by the
United States assay office in Dead
wood to the mint in Philadelphia. 1t
was the gold that had been received
from the various mines and mills of
the Black Hills during the thirty days
just ended. There were four bars of
bullion, each worth s46,476.16. The
smaller bars, nuggets and dust re-
ceived at the office had been nodded
into this form for shipment. 1t was
n of the largest consignments the
Deadwood office has ever sent. The
business is becoming larger, as more
CT the mining companies are d~isposing
of their product there instead of ship
ping it East themselves. The Home
stake, the heaviest producer of bullion
in that region, continues to ship to
New York direct. The Golden Re-
ward company reduces it's values to
matte at the smelter in Deadwood, and
this is shipped to an Omaha rein
cry. Nearly all the other companies
deposit their bullion output at the
United States assay Office.

REDSKINS LIKE TO EARN LIVING.
indians Voluntarily Surrender Ration
Tickets for Chances to Work on Res.

Indians Voluntarily Surrender Ration
I'ckets for Chances to Work on Res.
ervations.
e. J. Warner, subagent at Cherry
Creek, on the Cheyenne Indian reser-
Vation,, while in Pierre recently. gave
out a few facts in regard to the matter
OF giving the Indians labor to support
themselves, instead of continuing the
ration system.
Mr.. Warner made a tour of the
Rosebud reservation, looking over the
work which had been done on that res
ervation, and says that the results of
the summers work Of about 500 Indi-
ans, is hundreds of miles of well built
roads, the work of course only be-
ing done at the rough places in the
roads, the prairie needing no attention.
The plan followed where a road
crosses a gully or gulch is to grade
across, making a substantial dam.
with a wasteway arranged in such a
way that the water can never run over
the embarked earth. This serves the
double purpose of making a good
crossing, and, at the same time, a stor-
age reservoir. The results of the work
SO Tar, on the Rosebud reservation, is
flfty-elght storage dams besides the
roads improved.
The same plan has been jnaugurated
on the Cheyenne reservation, and Mr..
Warner has now over 100 Indians at
work, following the same plan. After
he ~inaugurated the work a number of
Indians voluntarily came in and sur
rendered their ration tickets. This is
not in line with the acknowledgement
view Of Indian character, but the indi-
cations are that a large majority of
the able-bodied Indians on the reserva-
ton will make the same move next
spring.
They appreciate the fact that the
work is for their benefit, and that they
can secure pay for practically work
ing for themselves. The pay given
them is in cash, and is ST. q per day
per man, or $3.50 for a man and team.

SMALLPOX CAUSES ALARM.
Health Department Of Lead Alarmed
at the Outbreak.

Smallpox has again appeared at
Lead, and the health authorities are
in a quandary. DR.. N. NJ. Wade, city
physician, is out in an article urging
wholesale vaccination and criticising
parties who have evidently failed to
report cases.. There was something of
an epidemic of the disease last winter
in the town, but it is believed 1t was
suppressed. DR.. Wade says careful in
vestigations have been made as to the
origin Of the new cases recently devel-
oped, and, from the information he re-
ceived, he believes mild cases have ap-
peared from time to time and been
allowed to pass without reporting dur
ing the past summer. The disease ap-
peared in a mild and apparently harm
less form last year; but physicians arc
alarmed lest it assume a more malig-
nant type in tn culture.

Rubber From l3reasewood.

The ingenuity of Yankee inventor
has devised use for that humble and
unlovely shrub of the western deserts
known as the "greasewood" 1t has
been found to contain a gum that af-
fords valuable substitute for rubber.
The method of obtaining the gum,
which has been newly patented. con-
sists in bruising the woody stalks of
the greasewOod, soaking them in a So
luton of carbon disulphide, and then
drawing off the liquid, which is dis
titled. The chemical used as a solvent
is driven off by heat, and there re-
mains in the bottom Of the vessel a
gummy stuff, flexible and elastic.
Finally. the gummy stuff is washed
and purified, the result being very
fair substitute for India rubber-so
good, in fact. as to suggest the notion
that some day the American deserts
may b. made to yield very satisfactory
profits in the production of raw ma
terial of gum shoes and bicycle tires

well, madam" replied Mr.. Black.
ford. according to the New York Times,
Il have never given the subject a
thought. but l have known crabs to do
some remarkable things. Last sum-
mer l was fishing for founders in
Jamaica Bay. The water was shallow
and could easily see the bottom. A
crab sided up to my bait, picked up
the hook with one claw, took off the
bait with the other, ate it and then
climbed up the line for the bait box.
If that isn't reason it certainly is
very high degree of Instinct"

Have to Be on Time.

Before l became a suburbanite. y
said a man who recently moved out

Record. Il used to note with consider.
able amusement the crowds of people
who every day would compare their
watches with the official timepieces to
be found in front Of several Chestnut
street jewelry stores. l used to regard
them as cranks when they would say
to each other Right Oh the dot or
draw long faces over difference of a
fraction of minute. For my part |
was satisfied if my watch kept decent
ly good time. and never bothered nv
head over a matter of five minutes or
SO out of the way. 1 have since dis
covered that the people l used to
think were cranks are really suburb
antics, with trains to think about. 1t
hasn't taken me long to discover the
Importance Of having a watch exactly
right, and after having missed several
trains l myself have joined the crowds
around the places where the official
time is kept"

How Turkish Rugs Are Sold.

Turkish rugs are sold by the bale as
they enter the customs house, and the
purchaser has no opportunity to eX-
anime them. He must take them as
they come, good, bad and Indifferent.
old and new, coarse and fine, perfect
and ragged The weeks arrivals are
usually put up at auction on Monday
morning. The larger quantity of rugs
come from the interior of Asia, and are
brought down to the ports of the Medi
terranean and Black sea by caravans
of camels and shipped to Smyrna and
Constantinople, which are the great
markets They are packed so many
to the bale by sizes, and if the pur
chaser knows the name of the seller
and the place from which they have
been shipped. it gives him a slight
basis upon which he can judge as to
their value, but it is always more or
less of a lottery, and hence the rugs
bring much less than their actual
value
