A MASS MAEETINGl
SMMASS MEETING!

SMMASS MEETlNGl
On Saturday Night
On Saturday Night. 1880 P. NJ.
At the Corner of Alakea and
Merchant Streets,
To protest against the arrest of
any person without a warrant and
issued by any Judge and to ex-
pose the outrageous actions of At
torney General Hemmenway
From the Magoon Office Build
ing, Dr. and Mrs. Atcherley will
expose the reasons why the Attor-
ney General Hemmenway Mem
Der and legal advisor of DR.. Way
son and the Board of Healthy and
the County Authorities, are so
anxious TO get the body of DIR.
John Atcherley into the Insane
Asylum through means of foul
play, and kidnapping instead of
doing things and according to
law.
A week ago today, DR.. Peterson
of the Asylum proposed to DR.. At
cherley at that place, that if the
latter quit treating or bothering
about the lepers, and leave the
country, the Authorities would
stop worrying him. DR.. Atcherley
refused to accept any Such prop
osition.
On January u, the prosecuting
authorities proposed to Mr.. Thomp-
son, DIR. Atcherley' attorney pro-
tenn that he advise DIR. and Mrs.
Atcherley to leave the country on
the. Alameda of January 20, 1909;
If they agreed to do this, they
would allow DIR. Atcherley to go
home that evening, giving him a
week to pack up and quietly slip
away on the Alameda when she
sailed, and that they would dis
miss the case against the Doc
tor. Had it not been for Mr.. j.
A. Magoon, they might have been
successful in getting DR.. Atcher-
ley and his family out of the
country.
DIR. Atcherley was released ac-
cording to law by the Honorable
Judge Robinson of the First Cir
cuit court, and he is not an es-
capped lunatic as announced by At
torney General Hemmenway. Ho-
nolulu, Fabruary 8. 1909.
Not Crazy, Only Angry.
DR.. Atcherley appeared at OF bof t
windows of his private suite in t
Magoon offices promptly at half-pa
seven. His countenance was lit
with kerosene lamp, placed on I
window-sill as a footlight. The doct
spoke in conversational tone, ha

TREE STUDY.
Teachers to Cooperate With Forest
Service in Tree Study.

Teachers throughout the country
have been invited by the United
States forester to cooperate with the
forest service in an effort to obtain
more definite knowledge Of the char
acteristics Of the most important for
est trees Of the United States. To
do this it will be necessary to obtain
a large number Of volunteer observ-
ers who will collect material on the
time of leafing, blossoming, and fruit
ing Of the various kinds Of forest
trees. In his letter the cooperation
Of the teachers, Forester Pinchot
says:
acknowledge Of this kind is greatly
needed and will be Of value from the
standpoint both Of education and Of
practical forestry. For educational
purposes the results obtained for each
species, averaged and presented gra-
phically by means Of colored charts,
will be available to all who are inter-
ested in the subject, and particularly
to schools. They will form virtual
:'tree calendars. and will be valua-
Bile aids to nature study.
"Children can readily be interest
ed in the actual work of obtaining
records This should form an attrac-
tive outdoor feature of the school
work that should serve to develop the
faculty Of accurate observation, and
at the same time to promote an inter-
est in forestry which may lead to a
better appreciation Of its aims and
methods. It may also prove to be a
profitable addition to botany courses
for older students.
"a study Of this kind will be Of
great value to practical forestry, since
the proper treatment Of forests de-
pends partly upon a knewlodge Of
these characteristics Of trees. For
example, the time Of year at which a
tree leafs out and blossoms is one Of
the indications as to whether or not
it is frost-hardy in a given region,
and the length Of time that a tree is
in leaf influences the growth It IS
able to make during the season.
knowledge of the time when seeds Of
each species ripen in various locali-
ties is Of great value to those who are
collecting seed, since seed often de-
| teriorates or is eaten by squirrels and
birds if not gathered and stored as
soon as ripe.
"Another result of this study will
be more intimate knowledge Of eli
mate as manifested by plant growth,
for differences in climate are shown
by plant life as well as by instru-
ments. and a preliminary idea can
thus be gained as to whether given
region is suited to a valuable tree
which it is desired to introduce there.
Many such examples could be given,
but sufficient has been said to show
that the results Of these observations
will be a real help to practical fores-
try, in addition to their general inter-
est and educational value. Volun-
teerS will later be supplied with pub
lications and charts containing the in
formation they help to gather, as a
return for the services rendered.
On request. the forest service will
be glad TO send forms upon which to
record data and a pamphlet contain
ing full Instructions as to the nature
Of the observations and now they are

than that Of either the whites or the

Decides Against Denis HenauIt.

The Rapid City Land Office having
sioner of the General Land Office. to
hold another hearing in the case of the
United States VS.. Denis Henault, the
claimant for the Stella r and Anna lode
claims, held such hearing on August 13,
On the occasion Of the first hearing the
Register and Receiver, on the motion of
the defendant, held that they had no
jurisdiction in the case, as no application
for patent had been made. This decision
however, was overruled by the Comis-
sioner ofthe Generol Land Office, whose
decision brought with it instructions for
hearing.
This case was brought to trial on the
allegation of the United States that the
mining claims held by Denis Henault
were not valid in the eyes of the law, in
that no valid discovery of mineral had
been made, and further that the land
was more valuable for agricultural pur-
poses than for mining purposes, the
claimant having used the land in question
for agricultural purposes for many wears.
Furthermore, it was brought out that
the land covered by the claims was the
same as that the claimant had been for
sometime past trying to include under
an additional homestead. In view of
the testimony the Land Office held that
the charged had been proven, and there.
fore declared the mining locations in
volved as wholly null and void. This
decision is in accord with one rendered
by the Land Office at Susanville, Calf,
which decision, upon appeal, was sus.
tanned by the Secretary of the Interior.

Soldiers Should Bury Their Dead.


The next time the soldiers visit Custer
it is hoped they will bury their dead
before they depart. While the troops
were here horse died, which they left
lying in the weeds-making no effort to
bury or drag off and dump into an
abandoned prospect hole. When the
carcass began to decompose it made such
horrible stencil, So nauseating that it
sickened the whole neighborhood. The
soldier boys created favorable impress
sion while here, but now the citizens sur.
rounding the camp ground are censur-
ing the officers for gross negligence in
not burying the animal. Doubtless, the
commander was not aware of the fact,
yet the officer of the day should have
been. There were enough members in
the troop to which its rider belonged to
have dug trench and buried the ami
NAL where it lay, without causing much
delay; instead of leaving the body to
decompose and cause disease or copta-
gion. An effort was made to drag it
away, but the stencil had become so un-
bearable that team could not be got
close enough to hitch to the carcass.
Speaking of soldiers, if the trooper
who lost his hat will send postage to
mail and his address to Dave Peterson,
the hat will be forwarded to him. 1t was
found between the livery stable and
blacksmith shop.

The Henault case.

Ed. L. Grantham, attorney for Denis
Henault, authorizes the following state
ment regarding the matter of coutests
against unpatented mining claims.
The case decided by the Secretary of
the Interior made the basis of reversal
is very different on the facts and on
principle from the case of the U. s. vs..
Henault. The chief objection to the
Jurisdiction raised, and given for the
action Of the Local Land Office at Rapid
City, was not presented nor decided in
that case. Even then the effect of the
Secretary's decision. giving it its broadest
Interpretation. will not afford to the
Forest Service the privilege claimed in
the proceeding. According to the terms
OF that decision the Department has no
right to dispossess the prospector. and
the decision has oforce or effect until
application is made for patent, when
the Department shall have thereby OBJ
tained jurisdiction, and then the record
made will confront the applicant. This
objection must be met in time in the
regular way upon application for patent.
In short, under the decision rendered,
it amounts to trial of case before it
comes into court. 1t is clear that addi-
tional discovery, additional develop
ment, or a new location will relieve the
owner of the effect of such adverse
decision.
The premises covered by the locations
involved here, are within claim under
the homestead law upon which Mr..
Henaut really relies, and determln-
alton that it is agricultural in character
is not at all distressing to Mr.. Henaut
or comforting in its effect upon the
Forest Service" in its practical working.
If an appeal be taken it will be for the
purpose of determining legal PROPOSE
tious involved, and not for any substan-
tial rights or interests of Mr.. Henault.

Author of First Grand Army Charter.

Gen. X. Mann Woods, who has been
absent ell summer returned to Custer
Monday. He attended the G. A. r.
Encampment at Salt Lake City, and
came from there directly home. The
Salt Lake Tribune Of Aug IL, published
a sketch of him. Being citizen of our
county of whom all may we'll feel proud,
we are pleased to copy the article en-
tire:
General Robert Mann Woods, oldest
living member of the q. A. R., who
shares with General B. F. Stephenson
the honor of founding the Grand Army
of the Republic, arrived here Monday
afternoon, and has been an active sup
porter of all matters connected with the
q. A. X. throughout his stay. The Gen.
eral calls attention to the founders of
the order in the following manner: The
G. A. R. was organized at Springfield,
ILL.,, April l, 1856, by DR.. B. F. Stephen
son, surgeon in the Fourteenth Illinois
infantry, in the face of direct opposition
by the politicians of the State, who
thought they saw in it an ATTEMPT to
overcome something of their influence.
On April 8, the first charter of the
organization was presented to the two or
three hundred Civil War veterans who
had been gathered together by DIR. Steph-
enson, and was adopted. This charter
was written by General Woods. AS soon
as the organization of the first Post was
accomplished, General Woods made a
tour of number Of the States organiz-
ing departments of the order. In Wis
consin there were at that time number
of Army and Navy Leagues. These
were reorganized, charters issued and |
department of Wisconsin, G. A. R, per-
fected. Wisconsin was thus the first |
department, although Illinois retains
the honor of having been the first State |
to have Grand Army organization.
Quartermaster General John NJ. Sny-
der, after organizing two Grand Army |
Posts in Chicago, went to st. Paul and
organized the department of Minnesota.
The first convention was held at Spring
field, ILL.,, July IA, 1866; the first En-
campment was held at Indianapolis,
November 90, of the same year, and
Stephen A. Hurlbut was elected Com
mander-in-chief. DIR. Stephenson was
elected Adjutant General at this En-
campment by bis own wish.
To General John A. Logan, elected
Commander-in-chief at the second Ma
tional Encampment held in Philadel.
phia, in January, 1868, belongs the
honor of formulating the famous Memo
rial Day order. BY this, says General
Woods, the many grave-yards of the
country, which had been sadly neglected,
were turned into beautiful burial places.
Some years ago General Woods made
a trip to Europe to investigate what was
being done there for the ex-soldiers and
states that he found from the nature of
the conditions there such an organiza-
ton as the 6. A. K. would be practically
impossible. General Woods belongs to
a family of soldiers, and boasts of an
cestors in all the wars of the United
States, beginning with the Revolution.
Six of his ancestors were at the Battle
of Lexington"

A Rare Mineral Found in the Black Hill

A Rare Mineral Found in the Black Hills
Two weeks ago Edward N. Davis, the
mine superintendent for the Western
Chemical & Reduction Company, went
to Omaha. Wednesday he returned,
after taking long jaunt around Robin
Hoods barn or some other place. Any
way he left at the CHRONICLE Office a
sample of White Topaz, which he found
somewhere in his meanderings. 1t is a
fine specimen, almost transparent. This
is the first discovery in the Black Hills
of this rare mineral, or precious stone,
whichever term you choose.
Mr.. Davis is very reticent about the
extent of the ledge, but assures us it was
found within the proper boundaries of
the Black Hills. Samples sent to New
York City to be tested, have proven sat
isfactory. No doubt, when developed,
it will prove valuable "find" for his
company. The CHRONICLE has no desire
to create Juror of excitement over the
discovery of this rare mineral, but if We
would keep abreast of the times we must
give publicity to everything valuable
found in the Black Hills and let the
world at large know that we are still on
the map-and blowing our own bazoo.
The CHRONICLE reporter knows several
prospectors that are searching the Hills
for rare minerals and precious gems, and
he hopes they may all be rewarded for
their diligence.
