the distance travelled by rail was over
 5000 miles. Neither Mrs Johnson nor
 myself had days illness, nor did ac- cident or mishap occur to mar our pleasure or delay us on our journey. Have we not cause for gratitude? That the letters that have been con- tributed to THE BEE, pertaining to the trip, have been we'll received, there is abundant reason to believe from the unanimous testimony voluntarily given since our return, which of course is an added pleasure. Now, though the pen is laid aside, the rich remem- brances of our Strip remains together with the firm belief ingrafted into my soul, that ours is the best country, the best government, and made up of the best people as whole, that exists on the face of the earth.

She says: 'The coughing and straining so weak ened me that I ran down in weight from 148 to 92 pounds. tried a num- of remedies to no avail until I used One Minute Cough Cure.

three children, the oldest of whom is
six years of age, were in the house at
the time.
Inc hired man was at work in the
barn when he discovered that the
house was on fire. He ran to the
scene OF the fire, and. observing that
the children had not escaped, set about
the work OF rescue. The flames had
spread to such an extent that he could
not enter the building by any of the
doors.

The Merrall stamps are something
new for the Black Hills, although in

out the Southwest. They are o diff
ferent from the ordinary stamp X
cept that instead Of i've. three consti'
tute a battery, and each stamp works
in its W compartment. A q~uadruple
discharge is obtained, there being a
discharge for each of the four sides.
Each stamp is fed by itself from It's
separate hopper, and in this way the
efficiency Is greatly increased.
Where these stamps are in use it Is
found by proper feeding that they will
perform a duty of seven tons a day
with ease. This is more than the or
binary stamp will do.
Mr.. Conzett expects to be able to
treat forty tons a day with the six
stamps to be installed. The Neral
stamp was designed originally to be
used back of the Chilean mill. MI.
Conzett expects ultimately to adopt
this system at his plant. For the pres
ent he will crush about forty mesh 1ne-
