WONDERFUL RED TOP.
An Immense Body of Ore in the

That the Red Top mine at Gold

The foregoing query written by
Floyd Knickerbocker, assayer for
the Red Top Mining company, at the

synopsis Of the glitteriug chapter
which that mine has added this week
to the worlds mining history. The
story told by numerals on the Ger,

To relieve the drifts OF their precious

for mining operations, the hoist is be-

RICH KAWTCH ORE.
Strike of Great Importance On
Goldreed Property.

A strike Of phenomenally rich ore
has been made on the property Of
the Goldreed Mines Company at Ka-
wich. The find was made at a depth
Of 1850 feet in the new incline shaft.
A 20 foot ledge of well oXidized ore
was followed from the grass roots to
that depth and it was IN high grade
ore all the way. Arrangements are
now being made to ship several sacks
Of the ore to Goldfeld for a test
treatment.
The same peculiar ozidjzed condi
ton prevails at the 1850 foot point as
at the surface and appears to be due
10 what was probobly two flows Of
the audesite. Tie FIRST having cooled
and cracked, the second filed in the
crevices and deposited therein the
oxide aud free gold, The latter is
not Of the aaky, noury sort, but is
said to predominant in the form Of
little punches Of cubes, which indicate
that excessive heat was largely ia
strumental in it's location there.
Work is being prosecuted on an ex-
tensive scale both in the shaft and at
the surface and in each instance the
same high grade values are said to
prevail.
The formation Of the entire Kawich
section presents many peculiar char
acteristics, and to cite an instance,
it appears that Quartz mountain on
the west and the Belted range on the
east had acted as anchors during
some great eruptive period, and that
they had held and faulted the main
vein, pushing it to the north. The
dixie from which it appears to have
been separated has a northeast and
southwest trend and can be traced
at surface to the slopes Of the Kawich
range some two miles distant.
The general indications of the Ka-
wich district tend to the belief that
it is a highly m%ineralized section and
that as the gold values are found in
an eruptive dixie the rock will all be
found to be free millinu mill tho
main range is reached, when the sui
phides will make their appearance.
Considerable prospecting is being
done in all portions of that section
and the camp Of Kawich is once more
In a fl%ourishing condition. Water
for milling purposes can be secured
at little expense and a small quantity
of timber for mine purposes is avail
able some eleven miles distant.

THE SILENT RED MAN.
Mrs. NJ. t. StovalI Tells of His
Peculiar Ways.

In the scanty shade of the sagebrush,
near a Piute Indian village, sat a cop
perry belle. Her face, daubed with red
and white paint, and her elaborate
toilet, proclaimed the fact that she was
"out."
A young brave appeared and squatted
down beside her. He gave the belle a
side-long glance; she shyly returned it.
He drew nearer; she averted her face.
He uttered a despairing groan; she
smiled coquettishly. Encouraged, he
looked ~pleadingly into her face. The
maiden Strengthened haughtily and gave
him a stony stare. The lover jumped
up, rejected, and this courtship in
pantomine was ended.
On the door Of a ranchman's shack
hung a white rosette with duttering
steamers. Little Buster, with
wonderful golden curls, lay within, his
blue eyes closed, his restless hands that
were won't to distribute goodies inn
partially to red and white friends alike,
stilled forever.
The gate clicked, and in filed a group
of Indian women and children with the
dignity that is their birthright. The
foremost opened the door without
knocking, and they all walked in, in
stinctively bowling their heads. They
stood about the bier a few moments,
then quietly filed out, but the bereaved
white mother felt the sympathy that
makes all mothers akin.
A half-breed and a white man stood
in earnest conversation before the
grocery store.
"Well, JIM" said the latter, chats
fine looking rock. You take me up
there tomorrow"
An old Indian, with blue beads on his
hat, skunk by.
BE careful" said the half-breed;
''no talk loud. Old Indian kill me if he
know l tell white mar where gold is
law of my people"
"All right. NUNS the word. We
start in the morning."
AT dawn next day the half-breed was
leading the white mar up a t~ortuous
trail.
How much further? z" inquired the
latter.

A bullet whizzed between them.

moment above a boulder, and a dark
hand significantly drawing a finger
across the throat.
"Ill call the mine, The Whizzing

they continued on their way.
Presently the half-breed stopped.
whats the natter" asked the
white man.
"Me no find him" was the reply.
The white man exhausted his elo-
quence in a vain endeavor to induce his
guide to proceed; nothing would move
him, he professed to have utterly lost
his way.
They returned to town, the white man
cursing, as white men will, the half
breed silent-the way of the red man.
Next morning an old Indian woman
wore pitch on her face. Her sons
pony had strayed into camp the night
before with the dead body of its master
lying cross its back, his throat slit
from ear to ear.

Of GAS
IN HYDE COUNTY
Central Belt of This Product
Found to Be Farther East
Than Believed.
FOR PRACTICAL USE
The Flow, 1t Is Believed, Is Sufficient
to Furnish Light and Heat for
Farm, and Highmore May Be
Piped for Gas from Well.

High1nore, S.. d., Dec. 2S.-The belief
existing for years that Hyde county
was in the natural gas belt OF South
Dakota has been demonstrated in II
substantial manner by the striking of
gas in an artesian well which is being
drilled On the farm OF =. r. Begun, in
Washington township. near here. The
well has been sunk to Il depth of about
1000 feet. The water flowing from the
well is impregnated with gas to such
an extent that a blaze burns at the top
of the open pipe. W. at the COM
paratively short distance to which the
well a been drilled 1t is believed the
flow OF gas is sufficient to furnish the
farm with an abundance of gas for
both fuel n lighting purposes. Now
that 1t has been demonstrated that the
gas fields of Hughes and SulIy coun-
ties extend under Hyde county, it is
predicted that it will be only a few
years until practically every farmer in
Hyde county a IN abundance of gas
for lighting and heating purposes. This
Will mean Il saving aggregating many
thousands of dollars each year 10 the
farmers of the county. Arrangements
have been completed for sinking deep
artesian wells at this place In the hope
OF developing Il sufficient supply of gas
to heat and light every building In
town, as we'll as to light the streets.

REopENs A divorce SUIT.
Wife Seeks to Set Aside Husbands
Decree at Miller,

Miller, S. D., Dec. 27.-The people Of
this town were shocked to discover
nat auxiliary proceedings of IL Sioux
Falls divorce was being heard before
Justice Miller. TO earn that the par
ties at issue were from a blue law"
district of a quiet Quaker neighbour
God in Pennsylvania was cause for
them to stop and inquire. 1t seems
that Il Mr.. Helwig secured a divorce
from his wife in Sioux Falls about a
year II u half ago, the charge being
cruel and inhuman treatment, the wife
denying the allegations. Some six
months after this divorce was granted
Mr.. Helwig came to Miller and leased
u first class hotel. A Mrs. Houghton,
who had been a neighbor of his In the
Quaker state, and also after he first
came to Sioux Falls, was installed in
the newly leased hotel as h~ousekeeper.
She had with her II ~6-year-old SON.
Under h new management the hotel
~prospered and might have continued
to do so under the Helwig guiding hand
had not 1t become known that the di-
VOrced wife was en- route west as a
prospective guest of the inn. This
tnkling caused a scattering at once. so
when the lady arrived the hotel was in
other hands and Helwig far out of
town. The woman told her trouble and
returned to Sioux Falls. Since that
time upon newly discovered evidence
she had the case %reopened, and If her
charges against her husband and Mrs.
Houghton are sustained the decree
granted her husband will be set aside.
The case will come up at Sioux Falls
IN January. 1t vas to take dispositions
rs to the relations of Mr.. Helwig and
Mrs. Houghton while here hat the casc
VAS aired before Justice Miller. This
evidence vas taken behind closed
doors, but it may be stated that MOTH
ing of a damaging nature was discov-
cred here.
When Mrs. Helwig arrived she found
that Mrs. Houghton had preceded her.
Both women stopped at the.same hotel
and used the same parlOr. but did not
speak. Mrs. Helwig claims to still love
her husband, Mrs. Houghton says that
she doesn't want him. According to
their stories he is a prospective heir
