GREATEST MINES NOT OPENED

Formation Of Ore Bodies.
IL the Investigations Of a we'll
known mining expert and some South
ern HILLS mining men of prominence
are carried out into a practical form,
anc ii is believed that they will be
Hills before long will be much more
thoroughly exploited and developed
than In the past. These examinations
tend to show that the vertical lodges
in the Hills are far more extensive
than Is generally believed. and that
with scientific work, there is ample
opportunity for the opening up OF
much greater ore bodies.
Three parallel systems OF vertical
lodges traverse the hills in almost a
n~ortherly and southeasterly direction
conyerging at the northern end. One
passes through the country along a
line drawn through Rockerville, Pac'
tola, and extending through the North
ern Hills, includes the Galena district
The central belt tracing it from the
south, passes through the Keystone
district, through Silver City, Custer
Peak, Roubaix, and finds it greatest
prominence in the Homestake work
vings, near Deadwood. The third ledge
goes through Custer, Hill City, Mystic
Rockford and in the Northern Hills
appears In the fiat formations OF the
Bald Mountain district. Their width
is not infrequently several hundred
feet, the ledge containing low grade
values found in slate, quartz, iron py
rites and gold formations, with a lit
tie silver in spots.
Crossing these lodges are three
cross.ledges containing the higher
! grade gold values. This has been
more explointed in the Keystone and
Custer districts. Here the veins are
narrow, true assures and easier
mined. In the southern part Of the
Hills these cross-ledges contain tin
deposits and in the eastern part gold
exclusively. The northerly system OF
cross-veins contains gold In one por
ton and anthony, lead, silver and
copper In another.
According to the examinations the
greatest richness is TO be found in the
central portion Of these vertical
lodges, and it is here that future min
ing operations are to receive more en-
ergy. This section has seen numerous
strikes Of Importance and character,
but has received comparatively little
development. The whole system OF

some more practical lines will be

six weeks ago took up his residence
on a farm in the northeastern por-

security, after arriving at his new

the animal succeeded in making it's
escape and disappeared from the vi

arrived at the farm formerly occupied
by Lane in Union county, having COM
pleted the journey of more than 200
miles. The faithful animal had been
six weeks on the road between the

Judge Boucher will open court at
Miller on April 81. Gustave Kammel
will then be tried for the alleged MUIR
der of his wife last winter by putting
poison in the oatmeal of which she
ate her breakfast. 1t will be remem.
bered that their son also nearly died
from eating the poisonous food.
The old man has passed the winter
in Jail quietly and has enjoyed good
health, although it was supposed
when he was lodged there he soon
would die of natural causes. He looks
ahead to acquittal OF the charge
against him, when he will depart for
his native land of Germany.
1t is alleged that it was because his
wife would not let him sell the prop
erty and go to his Fatherland that he
formed toward her a hatred that many
believe was the motive which led him
to poison her. The old man denies
any such attitude.

Potter county is considering the
erection OF a new court house at Get
tysburg. The grand jury has declared
that the present building used for
court purposes is entirely inadequate
and unsuitable.
The grand jury also designated the
so-called Jail for Potter county a dis
grace to the community, being entire
ly inadequate for its purpose and a
fire trap of the worst order. Any man
with good heavy boots could kick his
way out of 1t in a short time"

credit to Potter county.
