Pet. Dullamrl who left lew
weeks ago for Cuba in company with
Fred ilulcomb writes from that
southern country that Dakota can
not be compared to iJ in any way
neither for climate, raising cattle,
nor any thing else. The party spent
day with Mr.. j. H. Leigh and fam
| lily at their home near Principe
where they were treated TO all the
| royal products Of the county, which
included many that we Dakotans are
not familiar with. Mr.. Duhamcl
aud Mr.. Holcomb will probably in

ing home.

| M Company boys are preparing

given in the city. The local orches
ira of seven pieces has been engaged

tmake this affair grand success.
| Our Indian friends who come tt
help us celebrate the glorious Fourth
have been rolling in over the north
ern bluffs at the rate OF severa
hundred day. At present there
are some twelve hundred encampeC
south of the city, and more coming
1t is expected that between two anc
| three thousand Indians will be here
fduring the Fourth, and an Indian
celebration is looked forward to fol
that occasion that will eclipse any
thing OF the kind ever before held in
the Black Hills country. The sud
| den addition of such large numbers
to our population has its draw backs
as we'll as its opportunity for amuse
ment, and study of the Indian char
acter. The principal inconvenience
is the inability of the local bakers tt
furnish sufficient bread stuff fo1
poor Lo who possesses white man
appetite for nice, fluffy loaves o
bread. The bake ovens arc running
might and day, and extra large sup
plies OF crackers have been ordered
by wire. In addition to this large
Quantities OF bread arc bought il
other towns Of the Hills each day
aud a hunter OF private ovens OF thu
town are working over time to hell
meet the demand for bread. Frlent
Lao is noble eater and Il Cheerful
buyer, and if The bakers can told u
under the strain IL will he well.
