A Rich Region.

The famous Black Hills region, sit
uated within the forks of the Chey-
enne river, on both sides of the
boundary line between South Dakota
and Wyoming'is an oblong stretch of
country, 100 miles in length, more or
less, by about fifty miles in width.
The hills rise abruptly from the sur
face of a level prairie country and
break into a rugged succession, with
the general trend from northwest to
southeast, from 5000 to 1900 feet,
This mineral district has, according
to the Mining and Engineering Re
view, produced about $3.50, 600, 600 ii
gold. The special characteristics as
developed are large bodies of low
grade, free milling ore, readily ant
profitably treated by crushing ant
the cyanide process. The earlier
gold was found in placer deposits il
the gulches.

Amended Locations.

II the person locating a mining
claim has made a mistake in his con
ception OF the strike of a vein, or has
taken too little ground, or there Is
any other discrepancy in his location,
he may make an amended location
correcting these defects If he can
still do SO without conflicting with
the rights Of others who have located
claims adjoining him since the date
Of his original location. The states
Of Colorado, Idaho, Arizona, Mon

have passed laws in regard to
amended locations, says the Mining
and Scientific Press, The provisions
of all these State laws, excepting OF

The sunny Side.

The sunny side of a house is the
best to live in, sleep in or work in.
The sunny side of the hospital is the
best for the sick. The sunny side is
the best to keep the healthy well and
to restore the sick. Don't creep into
gloomy shadows like moles and bats,
Find the sunny slope of every bill OF
difficulty, where the ice has melted
away, and where the rills and riyu-
let's dance and sing. In your inter
course with men, seek the sunny side
Of their character, and there plant
your seeds Of influence, your gooe
words and kindly deeds. Break W
the stagnation Of your life. Begin
revolution until, like this earth O
ours, your whole being shines IN the
beautiful sunlight.-Messenger.

AN HONEST LOT or FOLK.

Down at Frank Evitts' they have always been known for their honest qualities, but lately Pickle Fortune has furnished a couple of instances clinching this fact. Monday a lady brought in some harness repair work and then passed through the shop. A few hours later she came in consider. ably agitated and said she had lost her gold watch. MT Osborne passed out ot the rear door and found the watch lying in the horse shed in the saw dust. Saturday a business man entered the store. About 10 o'clock Frank Evitts came in and picked up a check, en. dorsed. Later in the day he had the pleasure of returning it to the dis tracted merchant who had hunted fn vain for it. MT Osborne has always been noted for his industrious quali. ties, but here we find man so busy he didn't stop to pick up a gold watch. The conclusion reaehed is that if you are going to lose things, by all means drop them in the harness store.

ONE ON MERRITT,

They are telling good story at the expense of Jeweler Hill. A few days ago he drove up to Seeley Richmond's place, hitching his horse under a con- venient tree. Then taking his rifle over his shoulder he started forth after woOdchucks. After an en joyable tramp and having the pleasure of dis charging his rifle several times at i'm agfnary woodchucks, he returned. While he was absent some thoughtful young men from down town had trans- ferred the wheels on the buggy, put ting the back wheels in front and the front in the rear. But Merritt was 70 absorbed in the study of nature he rode along in ignorance of the condi- tion of the carriage. As he drove away Will Richmond sang out to him.
 'Which direction are you going, for. ward or backward?" But this didn't open his eyes. He drove into Bank street and stopped in front of the fruit store. MyrOn Patchen wanted to know what was the matter of Merritt, and asked him to look at his carriage. MT Hill gets busy when this interesting topic comes up.
