THE PROSPECTOR.

Here he comes with his over
alls or corduroys well marked
with gouge or grease, usually
both. His whiskers are ragged
and he has a hungry physiog-
nomy. Listen to his tale of
riches to be acquired if only the
hole could be sunk deeper. Who
is the cuss =? Sometimes he is
an individual who could resur-
rect a sheepskin issued by Mr..
Eliot of Harvard. Oftner he is
plain American citizen with
little schooling, but versed in
the lore of individual contact
and being up against it.
Nutty? Not much-only born
with the pioneer instinct-
wandering foot-the ear that
hears only the call of the wild.
Many of them ? ST. Senior;
many. Every boy who hacks
his name on the fence with his
knife is a relative to Daniel
Boone, the same who in his Ken
lucky cave cut ID. B." on the
rock wall of his refuge from
savages, there to be read with
wistful feelings by those who
now dwell in fair Kentucky.
The prospector is always
liar. He cannot help it. The
bright sunshine reflects from the
snow masses which cover his be
loved rocks. the vast stretches
of mountain ranges, looking like
a frozen ocean spread before him
as he gazes from a star-striking
peak, the vivid sunsets which he
admires almost daily, the exag-
gerations of the atmosphere, his
natural exuberancy and abnor-
NAL bump of hope-an these
make him liar even with him
self.
Blessed be the prospector, and
may he, when his days are num-
bered, depart to a realm where
every rift in the clouds discloses
to his fascinated eye a pay streak
of gold, and may he at least de-
part to a place where there are
plenty of canned Boston baked
beans, and a suficiency of bak-
ing powder, SOW bosom and -four,
for the prospector is the man
who finds the mines that furnish
the gold for the world to do
business ON. Curse him not, We
infidels. Custer, Col, Guidon.

CLAYTON ITEMS.

The young men of Clayton
have organized a baseball club
and the boys are taking a great
interest in the ball game, and
from ali appearances they will
make first-class players.
The Literary Society of Clay
ton has proven a great success,
through the management of Miss
O'Day, teacher of the Clayton
school. 1t is a benefit to the
old as well as the young.
VIM. Elder was in Clayton one
day last week on business.
Frank Grotwold and Otto
K9ninger went down to Challis
on mining business one day last
week, and returned on the fol-
lowing day.
Corney Sullivan, T. G. Bar
beau and Lou Tracht of Clayton,
made flying trip up to the Sky
lark mine one day last week and
had to buck" about seven feet
of snow on their way. They re-
port the Skylark looking good
for a big body of ore.
The South Butte mine, owned
by Lou Tracht and Pat. Moiner
of Clayton, is turning of a large
amount of silver-lead ore by the
leasers. 1t averages all the way
from So to 90 ounces in silver and
65 to IS per cent. in lead, and is
about Z miles road from Clayton
to the mine up Squaw creek and
has proved to be a great mine.
The streets of Clayton are dry
and dusty, and from all appear
ances spring has entered.
The road between here and
Custer is in fine shape. and it
will not be long until the stage
will be going through with wag-
ons instead of sleighs.
Con Sullivan was down from
the hot springs last Sunday and
looked about ten years younger
than he really is.
John Smith and Jerry Sulli-
van have a lease on the Good
Friend mine, a portion of which
is owned by John Smith. They
have nice streak of pay ore in
sight. Good luck to the boys,
we hope they strike it rich.

An old criminal was once ask

This comes from Minnesota :
A Swedish girl, just arrived from

service at a Dutch church. The
minister, seeing she was a strang-

NEBRASKA MINISTER DIES.
Rev. c. E. Bentley Passes Away at
Los Anue!es

LOS ANGELES, Cal.-Immediately
after enting a room in a cheap lodg-
ing house with young woman heav-
lily yelled, Rev. c. f. Bentley of Lin
coin, Neb., dropped dead in this city
Sunday night. His companion at
tempted to restore him, but, seeing he
was dying, fed. Detectives have been
unable to find her. An autopsy re-
vealed symptoms of heart trouble.
Rev. Bentley and his wife had been
here four days. He was candidate
for president on the silver prohibition
ticket in 1896, and has been promi-
nent in temperance work in Iowa and
Nebraska.
The woman with whom he entered
the lodging house and asked for a
room was about 80 years old and hand
some. Bentley's widow says her hus-
band was innocent of wrong. She
says he has been afflicted with heart
disease for months. An inquest will
be held and the widow will take the
body to Lincoln for burial. The po-
lice do not suspect murder, but are
securing the city for trace of the
woman.

got no benefit till 1 tried Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. They helped me in every

THAT BEEF TRUST.
No Evasion of Decision Relative
Thereto.

Thereto.
WASHINGTON-It can be said by
authority that unless the corporations
constituting the alleged beef trust"
shall heed the injunction made per-
manent by the decision of the SUI
preme court of the United States, the
government will institute proceedings
against the individual members of the
corporations to enforce the decision
of the court
The proceedings will be under the
criminal law, if such can be instituted
J The minds of the president and men,
bers of his cabinet are made up fully
mined that the beef trust" shall obey
the law. and now that the highest
court in the land has upheld the
hands of the administration, it is
| said they will permit no further
'dilly-dallying'' with the subject.
At Tuesdays cabinet meeting the
president and Attorney General
| Moody shared in the congratulations
of the members of the cabinet on the
result of the beef trust" cases be-
fore the supreme court.
The president, who made no at
tempt to conceal his satisfaction at
the decision of the court, united with
the members of the cabinet in con-
graduating the attorney general. The
subject was considered briefly at the
meeting, but no definite conclusion
was reached as to what action, if
any, the government would take in
the future, except the general deter
mination to enforce the law as it has
been construed by the courts. The
president and the members of the cab
met regard the decision of the SUI
preme court as a signal triumph of
law as they have viewed it and are
prepared to carry it into effect abso-
lutely.
All the members of the cabinet
were present at the meeting except
Secretaries Hay and Wilson, the for
mer still being confined to his home
by a severe cold.
Again, the president emphasized
his interest in the arbitration treaties
pending before the senate. He holds
that the opponents of the treaties are
proceeding on wrong premises in
maintaining that they may be used
by foreign countries as a basis for ac-
ton against certain of the southern
states in the collection of old claims
Some departmental matters were
considered at the meeting, the most
important of which was the action of
Postmaster General Wynne in notify
ing John G. Capers, republican ma
tional committeeman of South Caro-
lima, that postmasters in that stah2
will be dismissed from the service if,
in the future, they pay the expenses
Of delegates to political conventions.
The action of the postmaster general
was approved by the president and
the cabinet. In principle the declara-
ton of Mr.. Wynne will apply TO all
other states where such methods are

Will Try to Adjust Rates.

CHICAGO-Traffic officials of the
gulf roads will meet in st. Louis to
decide how much lower the export
rates on corn from Omaha to the gulf
shall be than those to Atlantic ports.
At a meeting of executive officers the
eastern roads urged their western con-
nections to reduce rates to prevent
the gulf lines from having a differen-
tial or lower rate by more than three
cents. 1t was decided that no further
cuts should be made to the Atlantic
ports until after the meeting at St.
Louis.
