Mining Items.

The total output of copper from all the
mines in the world for the year 1906
was 736,7ll tons of metallic copper.
Chas. d. Walcott, who for many years
has had charge of the U. S. Geological
Survey, has resigned his position to take
the secretaryship of the Smithsonian
Institute at Philadelphia. MIR. Walcott
has made very efficient and intelligent
official, and has brought that depart.
ment up to a high state of excellence.
We hope his successor, Mr.. George Otis
Smith, may do as we'll,
Mr.. II. ID. Dibble, an inventor and
mill man of some note, has invented q
slime filter which he claims will super
cede all others in present use. Mr.. ID.
has quite an elaborate and well written
article in the Pioneer-Times of the 18th
descriptive of his method. He calls it
"The Dibble Centrifugal Slime Filter"
He says that from large ore body, ore
may be mined and treated for 80 cents
per ton.
Mr.. Dan McGonigal has put a gang OF
miners at work on the Catiwasa mine
situated about nine miles northwest
from Custer. The property belongs to
Messrs. James Henderson and Judge A.
T. Feay and is said to contain ore rich
in free gold. Mr.. Nc will do some de
velopmeut work and try to ascertain
the merits Of the mine. The boys who
went out with him to work are, John
Foster, Frank Todd, Geo. Schenk and
John Schaulis. The last named popu.
lar young man seems to have grown
weary of the horse ranch, tired of the
cattle range, surfeited with the gilded
halls and conventional social functions
of the east and will now try his prem.
tice hand at the hammer and drill. Stay
with it John till your blistered hands
get well, and we think you will learn to
like it.

Homestake Fire not yet subdued.

The fire in the Homestake has not
been subdued but on account of the
| difficulty of getting at it the flames seem
to be spreading and have now reached
the 400 foot level On this level there
| is said to be vast amount of timber in
the slopes, and as it is very dry it affords
an ample supply to feed the flames. 1t
may be month yet before the mine
will be in condition to admit Of the min.
ers following their regular avocation in
the deep levels. For this reason the
miners are leaving every day for Ne
vada, Montana, Colorado, Idaho and the
coast where work is plenty and wages
from $500 to $500 per day with eight
hour shifts. The miners from the Bald
Mountain mines, having already left and
having procured situations they are con-
tinually writing back for their friends
to come and the trains that pass our
doors are loaded with Black Hills min
ers. This makes the mining situation in
the northern Hills little gloomy for
the time being but it will not last long.
Another month will probably pass away
and by that time it is hoped and expect.
ed that the fire in the Homestake will
be out, and the strike settled. Then the
miners will come fiocking back to take
their old positions and the deep rever-
berations of the blasts underground will
be heard all over Lawrence county as oi
old.
The mines of the Black Hills have al.
ways been favorite section for miners
for many reasons. First among these is
the fact that the system of mining is the
best and most perfect of any camp in
| the west. Second the climatic condi
tions are the most favorable and the
mines generally are the most comfort
able and healthful to be found anywhere
These are factors which will always re.
main and they will have the effect &c
win back the wanderers to their old
homes, their old associates, their ole
bo sses and their dear old Black Hills.

Arbor Day.

Gov. Crawford has designated Friday,
April 26, as Arbor Day in South Dakota.
The governor says in his proclamation
II earnestly urge the general observance
of the purposes of the day by the gen.
erous planting of trees. Tree planting
and tree culture will richly reward every
one who is willing to give the time and
labor required. Nothing else will sur
round home with so much that pleases
the eye and comforts the heart as beau.
tiful trees and fine shrubbery. Nothing
else will so relieve the naked prairies OF
the withering drouth of midsummer and
the raging winds of midwiuter. Let the
teachers and pupils of our public schools
on this day plant trees upon school
grounds and campus and in the public
parks, and also prepare and execute fit
ting literary and musical programs.

Married,

At Douglas, Wyoming, on the 3rd of
April, 1907 Mr.. Joseph Kidwell to Miss
Sadie Rebecca Erwin. The bride is one
of the most beautiful and accomplished
young ladies of Douglas, and the groom
the popular superintendent of the Doug
las Mercantile store. The happy couple
departed for trip to Denver on the
evening train.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Kid
well is a brother Mrs. Geo. B. Hitch,
who accompanied by her husband at
tended the wedding and have since re.
turned to Custer. Mr.. Kidwell was for
several years resident of Custer, and
was recboned among the popular young
men of the upper ten of Custer society
These and many others will be interest
ed to hear that "Kidwell' has done gone
and done it.

Death of Mrs. VIM, easier.

A very sad accident occurred on the
evening of Saturday last in Hill City
About 7:30 the cottage where the moth
er of George and Douglas easier resid
ed, was totally destroyed by fire and the
aged occupant rescued with great diff
Guilty, only to die in few moments
presumably from shock, as her injuries
from fire we're slight.
The funeral was held Tuesday at 2 D.
M, at residence of Douglas easier, and
was largely attended. The services
were conducted by the Rev. Katherine
w. Powell of Custer, with beautiful mu-
sic, furnished by quartette of voices
under the leadership of Mrs. Z. G.
Johnson. The knights of Pythias ac-
companied the procession to the grave.
Mrs, easier was nearly 70 years of age
at the time of her death.
The above was handed in for publica.
ton and is self explanatory and the only
comment we feel called upon to make is
this. Douglas and George easier, SO well
and favorably known in Custer have
lost their nearest and best friend-their
mother. We join with their many
friends in this community in rendering
our expressions of sincere sympathy in
this their hour of affliction and sorrow.
The young may die, the old must die, it
is the course of nature. But for those
whose words and actions in this life
have marked them as honorable and
kind, why the less of this world the
more Of better one. Let your mourn.
ing be not for the departed bu. for your
selves.

Death of W. p. Moore.

In our last weeks issue we made men
tion of the death of Mr.. Walter 2. Moore
and old miner and resident of Custer
county for the last twenty-five years
Mr. Moore had been in poor health fol
year and over and his death was caus.
ed by general breaking down of the
whole system. He died in his room al
the house of Mr.. Mark Thomas where
he was residing temporarily, his home
being on his mine, the New York, ~
three miles west from Custer, where he
dwelt alone in his cabin.
Mr.. Moore had seen many Of the ups
and downs of life so common to the
prospector, which avocation he followed
all the days of his life in the Hills, and
commenced his mining career in the
early days of California. He was good
man at heart, although he did not have
as many friends as he should have had.
This was no doubt owing to the fact that
repeated disappointments and hopes de.
ferred for long years had soured his
once genial disposition, and he antago.
nized those who would have been his
friends, and he lived alone. Not much
was known of his past life or his con.
nections save that be had wealthy rela.
tives living in st. Louis, Mo, who were
kind TO him and contributed literally
to his support in his declining years.
He died at the age of rs, and was
buried in the Custer cemetery, Rev.
Katherine Powell performing the last
rites at the grave.

Plant Fish.

Mr.. Sam Scott received on Wednes-
day from the hatchery at Spearfish 1o,-
900 small trout to stock the three ponds
which be has established on his ranch
one mile north of Custer. These are
small fry and average about II inches
in length shipped to him in cans hold
ing FIVE gallons each. Mr.. John Will.
helm also received supply of 10000 to
put on his new ranch on Tenderfoot. 1t
would be good thing if our ranchmen
generally would put in dams on the
small streams that flow through their
grounds and stock them with fish. II
will prove in the coming years source
of great pleasure and profit, and while
it can be- done 80 easily and cheaply
they should avail themselves of the op.
portunity. These fish can be procured
from the government hatchery at Spear
| fish, and they will be sent to any one
who has good place to put them. Plant

Governors of the different states, which

Direct information obtained by the
Committee from personal witnesses as
well as from the public press and official
sources, confirms reports as to the vast
magnitude of the calamity and the wide
spread misery it entails. In the next
three months before the new harvest
can be sown and reaped, disease and
death from slow starvation will be the
last act in the dark tragedy.
Our country is prosperous and gener-
Gus and has often responded TO appeals
to aid unfortunate sufferers. y
If the people of the United States can be
made to fully understand the conditions
IA 1soooiaJ toCy VIII give pIOnpbly anu
generously to avert the disease and
death which threatens hundreds Of thou.
sands of fellow beings. The Committee
expresses the hope that you will call at

aid be promptly extended because delay
of too great length will make the help
unavailing.

1t has been the custom for number
of years for the farmers sons and daugh'
tiers to leave the country and flock tc the
cities for employment. But now, the
scene is changing and back to the coun-
try" is now the cry. They seem to have
got tired of the smoky air, the cramped
quarters of the tenement houses, the

ofthe bosses. and they long for the free
air of the country once more. The

phone and the rural carrier system have

1t is reported that an order has been
sent to the war department at Washing
ton that no more negroes will be accept
ed in the United States army, and all
those now in the service will be sent to
the PHILIPPINES. The reason for this is
that the negroes by their lawless and
unsolderly conduct in the Brownsville
affair, (at least it is so argued) have
brought disgrace upon the army and de-
graded the flag.

The writer, accompanied by Mrs. W.
r. Bond and son, Floyd, of Custer, and
W. l.. Prettyman of Pekin, H., visited
the School of Mines yesterday, notwith-
standing the fierce wind that blew all
day. President Fulton was seen and he
gave us the freedom of the buildings,
but as it was vacation, and every door
was locked, he detailed c. C. Van Nuys
to pilot us around. Everything was in
perfect order, and looked very much as
it did the time of the last write up given
the school by this paper. Every de.
partment was visited, and the strangers
expressed much interest in it all. Mrs.
Bond has a son who expects to come
here to school next fall, and she was es.
pecially desirous of seeing all she could.
