High Rank.
The correspondent of the London
Times at Cairo sends an account OF
an interesting find made by Theodore
M. Davis in the valley of the Tombs
OF Kings to the San Francisco Chron-
lcle. 1t is that of tomb which had
not been opened since the age of the
eighteenth dynasty, and is still filed
with treasures Of a time when Egypt
was mistress of the east. The CORE
spondent says 'The sepulchral
chamber is about thirty feet long and
fifteen feet wide, the height being no
more than eight feet. On the left
hand side of the entrance were two
great wooden sarcophagi, painted
black and gold, within which the
mummy cases of the occupants of the
tomb had been placed. The cases
themselves were double, the outer
case being completely plated with
gold on the ouside except where the
face of the mummy was realistically
represented, while the inside was fill
ed with silver. The second case was
similarly plated with gold externally,
| but inside gold leaf was used instead
of silver. Beyond the coffins, at the
was covered with large sealed jars
of wine or oil and shell-like boxes of
black-painted wood each of which
contained piece Of cooked meat,
neatly wrapped in black muslin.
PLANTED on top of them was the
chariot, broad enough to hold two per.
sons, richly painted and encrusted
with gold. The leather work belong
ing to it is still as fresh as when II

cAsrLEWooD's NEW SCHOOL.
Plans Are Drawn and Bids Will Be
Opened June 27.

In accordance with the result of
recent special election at Castlewood,
when bonds in the sum Of S11 900 We're
voted for the construction Of a new
school building, preliminary steps are
being taken for the erection of the
building. Only one vote was cast
against the issuance of the bonds for
the purpose stated. A Minneapolis
firm has been awarded the contract
for preparing the plans and specifica-
tions for the new building. Bids for
the erection of the new school building
will be opened on June 27, and it is ex-
pected the contract will be awarded
without delay, the intention being to
have the structure completed and
ready for occupancy when the fall term
of school commences. While bonds to
the amount of $11 900 were voted for
the erection of the building, the struc-
ture will cost about $4,000. The board
of education, when the bonds are sold,
with cash on hand, will have ample
to cover the cost of the building. The
structure will be constructed of press
ed brick. 1t will be two stories in
height, with basement, and will con-
tain eight school rooms. CastlewOOd
has needed a new school building for
several years. and will now have one
of the finest structures Of the kind in
this part of the state.

DONATES LAND.
Block In Cuba for the Mitchell Univer.
siHx.

Some months ago President Nichol-
son of Dakota university delivered an
address in Sioux Falls setting forth
the needs and prospects of the univer-
sity. Some weeks afterwards he re-
ceived a letter from gentlemen, a
former we'll known citizen of Sioux
Falls, now residing in the island OF
Cuba, stating that he had been very
much impressed with the university as
presented by its president, and that he
had concluded TO make donation.
He offered an entire block of land in
a new addition to the city of Kan
pagney. formerly known as Puerto
Principi. 1t is a city of 10000 inhab-
lt;.nts, and the land is now worth per-
haps as much as the same tract OF
land would De in Mitchell, but every
thing points to the fact that in the
near future it will be much more val
liable. Within the last few days some
extended correspondence looking to-
ward the investigation of the property
has resulted In a definite donation OF
this land to the university for endow-
ment purposes
Rev. J. p. Jenkins, who has been in
the East during the month of May, has
sent several moderate donations from
Eastern friends to the university, and
now announces that Rev. Daniel
Steele, for long time professor in
Boston university and a friend of Pres
ident Nicholson of a number Of years
standing, has donated 240 volumes
from his private library to the college.
The books will be shipped in about
two weeks. This following upon the
notable and useful donation Of DR.
Brush announced last year, will be
gratefully received by the students
and friends of our university.

3 Burglars in Town.

Anoka. Mimi, June 13.--Fire prac

Meyers saloon, and going to investi.
gate the fellow gave a signal whistle
twice and ran across the street into
an alley, paying no attention TO or.
ders to stop. Chief Faherty shot at
him twice, but the man got away. 1t
is believed he was one of a gang of
four who have been around the town
for two days. Meyers saloon was
burglarized Friday night.

CAPTURE OF MONEY EXPERT.
Counterfeters' Den Found in an Old
Cemetery

The discovery by the United States
authorities in Sioux Falls of counter
feiters den in what is known as the
old Rowland cemetery, situated near
Sioux Falls, explains the mystery sur.
rounding recent developments of a
strange nature in the vicinity Of the
old home of the dead.
AS the result of a raid on the den,
the federal authorities succeeded in
capturing the man who It is alleged is
the maker of a great amount of coun,
aerfeit money which has recently been
placed in circulation at Yankton and
other places in the south eastern por
tiOE of the state.
The only occupant of the den at the
time of the raid by the federal officers
was Levi Clark. an ex-cCnvict. Ever
since it was discovered that spurious
coins were being circulated at Yank
ton and elsewhere Clark had been
watched by the federal authorities
The making of molds and counterfeit
money is a mania with Clark. He is an
eccentric character and takes great
pride in the expert manner in which
he fashi )ns the molds, and has not hes
itated to talk, even with officers Of the
law, as to his expertncss in this re.
gard
The counterfeiters den was located
in the shelter of clump of bushes in
the old cemetery and was cutie well
concealed. None of the manufactured
spurious coins were found in the den
but the authorities captured a com
plete outfit of lies: molds and other
implements and material. The capture
of the dies and molds indicates that
Clark was a confederate of a man Civ
ing his name as A. G. Sharp, who was
recently arrested at Yankton on the
charge Of passing counterfeit money.
When taken before United States
com missioner for his preliminary hear
ing, Sharp waived his examination and
was held for appearance at the next
term of federal court.
The cOiaS were made of pewter and
given silvery finish by being dipped
in quicksilver. While fresh from the
quicksilver they are good counterfeits
and during a rush of business would
be readily taken.
The dies and molds captured in the
counterfeiters' den in the cemetery ex-
actlv fit the coins passed by Sharp at
Yankton, which points to the fact that
Clark was engaged simply to 1Ilanufac-
ture the spurious coin, while Sharp,
and perhaps other cOnfederates, took
care of the matter Of getting the cOun.
terfeit money into circulation.

FINDS PREHISTORIC RELIC.

Mrs Mary Small of Pinedale, situat
ed on the western slope of the Black
Hills, discovered an interesting relic
of a prehistoric race. While rounding
up cattle she noticed what al lpeared to
be a bar Of iron protruding from a
huge boulder. With the assistance OF
some of the men employed on her
ranch the boulder was broken open
and the bar of iron fell to the ground
The pin was sent to the Columbian
university and there put t. severe
tests.
The results of the tests have just
been announced by Mrs. Small. The
experts who examined the bar pro.
nounce it an iron implement used in
mining by prehistoric rece. The met.
al is much harder than the iron OF
the present Gay and has ring like a
piece o. silver.

BIG BLAST.
It 10 Expected to Break 5000 Tons Of
Gold Rock.


The Wasp No. company is about
to set off very large blast at the
mine south of Deadwood, which viii
break something like 5000 tons OF
rock. 1t is the custom of this company
to spend several weeks making holes
in the face of the quartZite ore and
putting in several pounds of powder,
which will break enough ore to run
the mill full capacity for several
weeks. This company is working at
the lowest grade of ore found in the
Black Hills. The stock is owned by
local people who have been receiving
dividends ever since the mill was IN
ished. Originally the company built a
small mill, expecting to treat about H.
300 tons of ore then in sight. The com
pany has t,eated over 100000 tons, and
mas close to a million tons that can be
figured on to certainty.
The Minnesota Mines company has
encountered another body of ore south
Of the famous Maitland mine. The
company will install a cyanide plant

Tt. Imperial company is now work
ing at an increased capacity in the
mill in DeadWood. One hundred and
fifty to one hundred and sixty tons are
put through daily and extractions have
been somewhat increased owing to the
large tanki1g room. In recent devel-
opment work done by this company in
it's property in Bald Mountain was
shown up an enormous body of fiat
ore. being 400 feet in width and from
20 to 80 feet in thickness.
Ground was broken last week for
new cyanide plant which will be built
by the Eleventh Hour Mining COM
pany James Hartgering has the con-
tract. He has also commenced the con-
struction of a 20O-ton cyanide plant,
which is being built in that same camp
by the Victoria Mining company. He
is authority for the statement that the
Bullion Mining company at keystone
has ordered a plant for mill to be
built this season. 1t will be construct
ed on the Bullion property which ad-

head, also some winter wheat.
Corn planting, except some neces-
sary replanting due to poor seed, is
practically completed. The earlier
planted corn is generally up, with
mostly good stand indicated, and the
late planted is coming up favorably,
but there is some local complaint OF
cutworms being troublesome. Consid-
erable early corn is being cultivated
Grass is making rapid growth, pas
turage is good, the outlook for hay

WILL TRY, TRY AGAIN.
Faulkton Has Difficulty in Securing
Artesian Well.


Because Of a popularity in the for
nation Of the great artesian basin at
the point where it extends under
Faulkton, that city has had the great
est difficulty in securing good arte-
sian wells. Recently such a we'll was
completed for the county on the court
house grounds IN Faulkton, but like
other wells of the kind drilled here, ii
was not a success, and another will
be sunk by the contractors in the eff
fort to secure well with good flow.
Thus far four artesian wells have been
drilled within the limits of Fauikton,
only Cne Of which has had good flow.
The wells in the aggregate have cost
great many thousands of dollars.
The failure 10 strike good flows in all
the wells sunk at this place is stated
to be due to the fact that, unlike 9th
er portions Of the state, the water
bearing rock which forms the famous
artesian basin of South Dakota is of a
very poor quality Immediately under
Faulkton. The rock at this point is
exceedingly hard more compact and
less porous than even in the near vi
cinity of the town. Artesian we'll drill
drillers have been compelled to go to
the great depth of from 1900 to ! 400
feet at this point, and at that depth
experience considerable difficulty in
penetrating the rock owing to its un-
usual hardness. At no other point in
the state are the same conditions
found as at FaulktOn.
