endless surprises, and the air of nature which is cast over even the most extravagant situations make this play worthy of the popularity it has enjoyed in almost every country of the world.
 IT IS SELDOM, IF EVER, that an adaptation for stage presentation EXCEEDS IN POPULARITY and general favor that of the novel itself However, that is the case with "Monte Cristo" which has had the most solid success of any book play known to theatrical history. THE STORY IS A MOST IMPRESSIVE ONE and deals with all the PASSIONS AND EMOTIONS. The play, which is in five acts, is provided with complete scenic investi- ture and the costuming is correct

Telluride Ores.

In another column of this paner will
be found an extract from an article in
the Chicago Mining World of May 18th
under the head of Experiments in AS
saying Telluride Ores" We regret that
lack of space precludes the publication
of the whole article as it is all interest
ing to the mining fraternity in this par
ticular camp, and maybe to some others.
The ores which he describes are exact
ly such as we have to contend with in
many cases here in Custer county. 1t is
a lesson we have got to learn to treat
those ores in accordance with their laws
and conditions before we can make a
success in extracting the high grade val
ues in gold which they contain. That
we have not done this in the past is a
reflection upon us and We feel it most
keenly, although we have the satisfac-
ton of saying all along Eve told you
So"
Mr.. Mcleod gives altogether the re-
suits of four different tests differing
somewhat from test No. l which we
publish, but this test seems to fit our
case little better than the rest, and we
therefore give it for the benefit of whom
it may concern. We may take occasion
to write more extendedly in the near
future upon this subject for it is one of
vital importance to the miners in this
camp, and indirectly it is of vital impor-
tance to every inhabitant of Custer coun-
ty. We say this advisedly for even the
farmer and stockraiser must not imag-
inc that they are not interested, for the
success of the mines creates their mar
kets and our interests are all bound up
together. We viii never reach our des-
tination till we take the pains to get on
the right road.

able citizen of Hayward met with ter
ribe accident Monday, May 9th, which
resulted in his death. Mr.. Boardman
started from his home to Keystone, when,
it is supposed his horse became unman-

Mr.. Bo&rdman.
The unfortunate man was discovered
by By Ferguson. Assistance was called
and the horse pulled out of the hole.
Mr.. Boardman was badly cut and bruis-

instantly after the horse fell on him.
Mr. Boardman was about seventy five
wears old. He came to the Black Hills

Grading on the Milwaukee About Fin
lshed.
The Journal has received authentic
advices that the grading on the Milwau-
kee road between Rapid City and Cham
berlain will be completed along the en-
tire line this week, and with hegraders
out of the way the steel will be soon
laid and the gap between Farmingdale
and Kadoka filled. A present the track
laying gang is laying steel west of Ka-
doka, and within short time the steel
will be laid to the Cheyenne river from
the east
Yesterday the foreman of the track
laying gang that is to lay the steel from
Farmingdale to the Cheyenne river
reached Rapid City, and he will at once
organize force of tracklayers and the
laying of steel from this end will be com
menced before the present week ex-
pires.
1t is the intention Of the company to
rush the work on this end until the
Cheyenne river is reached so that the
bridge timbers can be delivered on the
ground by rail and an effort made TO
have the bridge completed by the time
the tracklaying gang reaches the river
from the east.
On the Pierre, Rapid City and North
western the track laying gang has passed
through Wall, and the work of laying
steel is to be completed from this end of
the line. The two ends of the track will
meet at Phillip, that being the western
terminus of tracklaying from the east.
This road is being surfaced as fast as
the steel is laid and by the time the con-
nection is made with the east end the
roadbed will be in condition to run
trains and the company able to handle
business. Rapid City Journal.

A recent Pierre special TO the Sioux
Falls Argus Leader, in speaking of the
state primary law, gives some pointers
that are of special interest to every resi-
dent of the Black Hills. "While year
is yet to pass before a state wide prim-
ary law is to be given practical test in
this state, the different complications
which it may bring about are being stu
died. The Black Hills section of the
state never took kindly to the plan for
fear of results. The bulk Of the voting
population is east of the river, and will
be so located FOR some time, regardless
of the general development of the state,
and when it comes to selecting state
ticket by general voting of the states
voters are more likely to give their fav-
ors to local men with whom they are
personally acquainted, rather than to a
stranger. Under the convention sys-
tenn the Black Hills section has always
been recognized on all state tickets, gen
orally by congressional nomination, or
in lieu of that some other good place.
But with the new policy, the ticket can
easily be selected in the eastern part OF
the state, and the Black Hills section re-
ceive only such places as are given to
them by the statute. Take for instance
three or four candidates for congress
east of the Missouri, and one or two in
the Black Hills. Even with a solid vote
OF that part of the state any two east o.
the river could be selected anefhe Hills
left out"

There is an effort on the part of the
prosecution in the trial of Meyer and
Hayward to prove that Meyer served a
year in the Illinois penitentiary during
1885 and 1886. This he denies and says
that during that time he was working in
the mines in the Black Hills and there
are quite number who have come for
ward and testify that they knew him
here during that time. 1t is possible
that there is more than one Meyer in
the United States, and they may have
the wrong pig by the ear. Harry Da-
mon says that Moyer worked for him
on contract work during that time in
Deadwood, and Centennial milk man
saws he delivered milk to Meyer and
his family during that time. There are
many others who claim that they knew
Meyer in the Hills in those early days.
What are they trying him for anyway
We thought it was for the murder OF
Governor Steunenherg, but itseems they
have no faith in making that stick, so
they are bound TO convict him on gen.
eral principles, and are trying him for
something ne done in his boyhood
Let's have a square deal.

1t seems as if there ought to be more
just and equitable system of taxing
mines. Under the present method the
man who shows the most enterprise
and proves himself the most industrious
is penalized by being compelled to pay
the heaviest tax While the man who
is lazy and does the least in the way of
development and improvements is tax
ed the least. This is a punishment for
enterprise and premium on sloth.

MINES AND MININ q.

Most of the machinery for the new
Electric hoist and lighting plant for the
New York Mica mine has arrived and
is being hauled to the mine. There are
four new tubelar boilers and an electric
engine of $50 horse power and weigh.
ing l6 tons without the connecting parts.
Everything is heavy and massive, and
being manufactured by the Westing i.
house Electric & Mfg. Co. is no doubt
up to date. MIR. Jack Chilson has the
contract to do the hauling and it is no
light task. The expert to put in the
machinery arrived in Custer on Thurs
day.
The Auburn mill at Mystic started up
on the 2lst with 5000 tons of ore on the
dump that is said to run from 5000 to
$500 per ton. The capacity of the mill
is placed at rs tons in "a hours. The
plant has no stamps but in their place
are three National ore pulverizers and
two Michaelson concentrators. The ore
will concentrate 35 into l, but we can.
not learn if it is designed to treat these
concentrates by cyanide or by what
process they expect to extract the gold
We hope they do not expect to make a
success by free milling. If so, vain
hope.

NEW AIR COMPRESSOR.

The Pioneer.Times says, Mr.. II. d.
Dibble, of Mystic, who invented the
Dibble Centrifugal Slime Filter that
promises to revolutionize the treatment
of shines, has recently invented an air
compressor that will supplant all others
if it will do what the inventor confident
y believes it will. The new compressor
of MIR. Dibble has but one moving part
and not even a valve in it. Its efiic.
ency has already been demonstrated to
be from one and fourth to one and a
half times greater than any now in use.
Mr. Dibble is not dreamer, like some
inventors, but shrewdly educated man
and very practical. The new air com.
pressor will be manufactured and put
on the market by the Dibbe Machinery
company, which is also the owner of the
Dibble Slime Filter.
