Important Decision.

1t is reported from Rapid City that the
commissioner of the general land Office
has rendered decision in favor of the
defendant in the case of the United
States against Hugh P. Estes. The de.
cision is important to all settlers upon
lands within the borders of the United
States forest reserve in the Black Hills.
Mr.. Estes made homestead entry upon
his land in April, 1900, alleging that he
had occupied it eight years for the pur-
pose of acquiring home and that he
had improved and cultivated portions of
it. Before the land was surveyed the
Homestake Mining company made APP
plcation in April, 1898. to purchase GER
tain timber on the land and in June,
1900, the Homestake company fled a
protest against Mr.. Estes entry and ask
ed its cancellation for the reason that it
had been enormously allowed by the
local land Office, the land there close in
not being subject to entry. 1t was al
legged that it was more valuable for min
eral than agriculture and that the entry
was made for speculative purposes and
not i'm good faith. After q hearing the
local land Office decided in favor of
Estes. The case was taken to the gen.
eral land office and the decision of the
lower Office affirmed.

Mrs. w. s. Jones and Mrs. Z. H. Gilman,
both of Hamburg, were guests present
on this occasion.
The rooms we're most elegantly and pro-
fusely decorated with blooming chrysan-
themums, and asparagus plumosa, deli
cate and handsome little plant resem-
bling holly, that was sent expressly for
the occasion by Miss Amanda Petch,
niece of Mr. Wilcox who resides in this
place.
The tables were laden with the choic-
est edibles obtainable and were resplend-
ent with the most beautiful and attrac-
tive floral decorations. Messrs. Stafford
and Fisher, expert knife manipulators,
served as carvers, and to say that the
participants enjoyed the repast, and the
social converse that was unbroken dur
ing the considerable time required in
doing Justice to the various courses en-
braced in the elaborate menu, would but
family express the measure Of their un-
alloyed pleasure. The place cards pro-
vided for the occasion were white, bear
ing an autumn leaf, significant of the
autumn of life, upon which the members
Of the family In whose honor, and for
whose pleasurethe occasion was planned,
had entered. After doing ample justice
to the bounteous spread, in accordance
with previous arrangement, photog-
rapher appeared upon the scene and q
photograph embracing the entire group
was taken which will serve as a very
pleasing souvenir, and reminder of an
occasion replete with enjoyment which
will be ever cherished among the happi-
est memories Of the respective members
of this highly respected family until life's
curtain falls, shutting out all past recol-
lections. Mr.. Wilcox was absent six
teen days, and is more than pleased with
his visit, which he regards as being one
of the most enjoyable experiences of his
life.

Stepped Against q Hot Stove.

A child of Mrs. Geo. r. Benson, when
getting his usual Saturday night bath,
stepped back against hot stove which
burned him severely. The child was in
great agony and his mother could do
nothing to pacify him. Remembering
that she had bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm in the house, she thought she
would try it. In less than half an hour
after applying it the child was quiet and
asleep, and in less than two weeks was
well. Mrs. Benson is we'll known
resident of Kellar, Va. Pain Balm is an
antiseptic liniment and especially valu-
able for burns, cuts, bruises and sprains.

A Pierre special says State Land Com
missioner Bach has sent letter to the
various county auditors over the state,
calling attention to the statutory pro-
vision which requires estimates to be
sent out of the amount of permanent
school fund which will be on hand Jan
nary first, for the purpose of making an
apportionment of this fund to the vari-
GUS counties. AS there is at present but
$l5s.70 of this fund lying Idle in the
state treasury, and the estimate of all
funds available by the first of January
is less than three cents per capita, most
of the counties would not receive sum
large enough to make even a small farm
loan, and would only be put to the ex-
pense OF advertising the fund, and pay
ing interest until it could be returned.
Commissioner Bach has decided to make
no apportionment for this time.

Family Raunion.

Mr.. A. Wilcox, an old and highly re-
spected resident of this place, returned
the latter part of last week from Ham
burg, Iowa, where he was in attendance
at family reunion at the residence of
his brother Eli, prominent resident of
that city. Four brothers and a sister
were present on this delightful occasion,
the pleasing and enjoyable character Of
which may be readily imagined when
the fact is considered that they had not
enjoyed similar meeting for almost a
half century. The aggregate of their
ages was 81 years, 2months and IA days.
the oldest, Eli, being in his SOth and the
youngest, Mary E, being in her 6Sth year.
A brother residing in California, and a
sister whose home is in Canada, were
deprived of the pleasure of participating
in this enjoyable social event by reason
of illness.

daughters, one son, son-in-law and a
grand. daughter of Eli Wilcox Mr.. John

Black BILLS Gold Production.

The gold production of the Black Hills
for the year 1908 will just about equal
that of the previous year. The product
for 1902, according to the report of the
state mine inspector Thomas Gregory,
was $7,342, ,227.56. notwithstanding the
closing down of the Golden Reward
smelter at Deadwood last March, the
record of that company for the year will
nearly equal that for 1902. There has
been more money spent in development
during the present year than there was
last and more substantial strides have
been made. Over 5000 laborers are en-
ployed in the various mines and mills OF
western South Dakota. This accounts
for the remarkable prosperity of the dis
trict, when it is considered that these
men are all receiving standard miners
wages.

The Aberdeen News concludes a sem
sible presentation of the unwisdom Of
the attempt OF Huron paper to create
dissension in the republican party over
the selection of candidate for governor.
It says: Besides Mr.. Crawford there
are several other aspirants for the gov.
ernorship. Perhaps it would be more
proper to say that the names of num-
ber Of other good men are being pre-
sented by their friends. Among them
are Lieutenant Governor Snow offspring
field, Frank Morris now of Huron and
formerly of Hutchinson county, G. o.
Berg of Hutchinson county, Geo. v.
Ayers of Deadwood, also Gov. Herreid
for third term. No doubt some of these
names are being mentioned unwarrant
ably, but whether or not, the fact re-.
mains that in Mr.. Crawford's case alone
have his alleged supporters rushed to
the front, Haunting the candidates ban
ner in one hand and bloody bolo in the
other.

Sioux Indians DISCHARGED.

The trial of the Indians who shot
Sheriff Miller of Newcastle and Deputy
Falkenburg commenced on the 14th at
Douglas, Wyoming. John R. Brennan,
the Indian agent, together with Rev.
Mr.. Cleveland, Frank G. Gaines, the in
terpeter, and the district attorney from
Cheyenne were present on behalf of the
Indians. The prosecution received the
assistance of the prosecuting attorney Of
Weston county, ID. A. Faukler. Gov.
Chatterton, who had been in Douglas
investigating the trouble has made pub
lie the result of his examination and de
clares that the Indians were wholly at
fault and were the first to commence
firing, and the officers died as martyrs
to their duty, but he wanted them to
have fair trial.
There were nine Sioux Indians under
trial charged with the murder Of the Of
ficers. AS the trial proceeded it became
evident that they could not be convicted
as the witnesses who took part in the
fight could not identity any particular
Indian in sure and positive manner.
The Indians were therefore discharged,
and turned over to John r. Brennan,
Indian agent, who returned with them
to the agency at Pine Ridge. Ten ofthe
white men who were engaged in the bat.
tie, all testified that the Indians fred
first but they could not identify the
prisoners as all Indians look so much
alike. The Indians upon being turned
loose were not molested by the white
settlers as il was feared they would be
but returned in safety to their homes

Hon. Eben w. Martin, our represent
ative in congress, just before he started
for Washington made speech in Dead
wood advocating an annual harvest fes-
tival for the whole Black Hills. The
idea is to have our people get together
once year for the purpose of getting
better acquainted with each other, and
to exhibit to each other and to the world
the resources of our state. The idea
seems to have gained ground that we
are great mineral section and that is
about all we have to show, while the
agricultural and stock interests are be-
ing overlooked. The project seems to
take and is acceptable to our people gen
orally, and will no doubt be carried to a
success.

The Black Hills Teachers Association.
The meeting of the association at Hot

talks given were excellent, especially
the talk by Supt. Marshall of Rapid
City. We much regret that all Custer

it.
And we wish to express our great dis
satisfaction with the manner in which
the meeting was condu cted. That after

Late news from I5anama is to the efI
feet that the people of the Tsthmus had
revolutionized and seceeded from the
government of Columbia and were pro.
ceeding to organize the Republic of
Panama. The United States has recog-
nized the belligerency of the new Re-
public, and will make a treaty with the
new government in regard to the build
ing of the canal. President Paraquin of
Columbia has sent q strong note to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, and our senate, protest
ing against the hasty action of the Unit
ed States. The President of Columbia
claims the United States has violated its
treaty obligations in this matter, and is
appealing to England and other Europe
an powers for sympathy. 1t is not like
ly that they will get any sympathy or
encouragement from any Of the nations
at large, as they are all very anxious to
see the United States build the big canal.
1t will furnish short water way from
the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean, and the
United States guarantees that it shall
always be kept open to the commerce of
the world. 1t is very important to the
people of Panama that this canal should
be put through, but the Columbian gov
ernment have acted the part of the dog
in the manger and would not sign the
treaty confirming the privilege, except
at price and under such conditions as
rendered it prohibitive. Still great
government like ours cannot afford to
be unjust or to violate its pledges, and
we hope the United States has not done
this, but have proceeded legally and are
justified in the course they are taking.

Caramel shortcake is a pleasing
variation from the ordinary varieties
and is especially good at this season,
when fresh fruit suitable for filling
Is not In market. Make a caramel by
dissolving first a teacupful Of brown
sugar with a spoonful OF water, then
add a te%aspOonful Of butter and a few
drops of brown coloring. Stir till 1t
boils and is quite clear; then allow to
cool. Make a simple layer of cake,
using rather more butter than usual.
and spread between the layers a chO-
colate cream or some fruit preserves.
then pour the thickening caramel ev-
emily all over the top, doing this more
than once. giving 1t time to set In be-
tween. When cold. ornament with
candied fruits. If chocolate is chosen
for the filling add n little grated cho-
colate to the caramel before 1t bOils.

CLEANSING HAIR BRUSHES.

Good hair brushes are costly items,
and a way to keep the brlstles stiff and
clean for years is worth knowing. A
Russian coiffeur gives this recipe:
Have ready two basins: put a lump
OF soda the size of n walnut In one and
three parts I'LL II with boiling water;
the other basin should be three parts
filed with water as cold as you can
get 1t. to which you have added SUI
ficlent lemon juice or good white vim
egar to give 1t n nOticeably acid taste.
Shake the brlstles Of the brush well
up and down In the boiling water till
they are clean, then Mt once rinse
them thoroughly In the cold water and
stand them up to dry In the air or In
a warm place, but not too near the fire.
or course, the backs Of the brushes
must not be wetted.
