New Mining Company

Deadwood-Black Hills people are
greatly interested in the plans Of the
Black Hills Development and Finan-
cial corporation, a new mining COM
pany just organized by Robert Bunce,
of London, a well known ~financier
who has spent the last three years
making careful examinations, with his
engineers, of several of the best min
ing camps mere in the Hills. The COM
pany is to acquire twenty-five to thir-
ty of the best developed mines of the
Hills for an exchange OF stock from
the first million shares. Thus far the
company has taken over twelve big
properties with a total of owe $500
acres. Contract agreements have Teen
made for fifteen other properties. The
company plans to spend a million and
a half dollars In development work
the coming year, which means that a
dozen or more properties will be thor
oughly developed by deep shafts. The
company plans to do the work in sew
eral camps and 10 confine to any one
formation.

Who has charge of the interior decor
alton Of the new capitol, is here deyot-
ing his personal attention to details
Of the work, which is being done by a
large force OF e A great deal OF
the ground color has been placed on
the walls, but the decorative features
are likely to be delayed by the slow
work Of the marble settlers, n the
work not be completed until some time
next spring. Some of the mural paint
ings will not likely be placed in posi-
ton before the middle of the summer
as the artists who are to do this work
will not promise all of them before
some time in July. But this will not
interfere with the occupation of the
new building, whom otherwise COM
pleted is 1t will take but a little time
to attach the paintings to the walls af-
ter they have been received.
The mural work decided upon, is in
'luuSu II CNNClal ouDJSNlO OC4CNICN u
Of a number of possibilities presented
TO the commission. For the four
circular panels for the ~pendent.ves Of
the rotunda, the work will be done by
Edward Simmons, of New Very, the
subjects selected being representative
of the leading industries of the state.
No. l, will represent stock raising;
No. 2 is representative of wheat grow
ing; No. 3, pOrtrays scenes Of general
farming; and No. 4, deals with min
ing, these four subjects being Consid-
cred as most fully covering the iGdus-
tries Of the state. The large painting
in the lunette at the head of the grand
stairway, also by Simmons. will Re an
idealized historical subject REPRESENT
ing the Lewis and Clark exposition UP
the Missouri River in 1903, on their
trip to the Pacific coast
The painting in the reception room
of the governor will be by Edwin H..
Blashfield, OF New York. and will be
an allegoriCal painting representing
the progress of South Dakota.
The rest of the mural work will be
by Charles Holloway, of Chicago. The
one in the supreme court room being
a representation of Justice. In the
senate chamber will be represented
the Louisiana purchase; and the paint
ing in the house of representatives
will be an idealized representation OF
the Jediah Smith incident where thai
young nan knelt in prayer on the
deck of one of the little river stelmers
before leaving il for a trip thro gh
hostile Indian country for a relief ex-
petition.
All this mural work will be done In
the studios of the artists who furnish
the paintings. and the anvass will be
attached 70 the walls after completion
of the pictures, preventing damage by
possibilities of cracking walls.

CHAPTER XIII.

1t was midnight In the great ducal
mansion at 100a, %Piccadilly. The vast
marble hall was flooded with light,
but only one sleepy footman sat in
his chair by the heavy doors which
led to the outer vestibule. There vas
an absolute silence in the place.
Presently Mr.. Remington. the port
ly major-domo. In his evening clothes
and black tie. walked across the hall.
The worthy mans face wore an ex-
preston of chastened JOY and benevo-
lence. His hands were behind him.
His head was thrown back and he
smiled to himself. humming a little
song under his breath as he passed
over the great Empire carpets and
the intervening spaces Of tessellated
floor.
He went up to the footman. in his

SECRET WORKERS
The Plan Upon Which Coffee Operates.

Coffee is such a secret worker that
1t is not suspected as the cause of sick
ness or disease, but there is a very
sure way to find out the truth.
A lady in Memphis gives an inter
esting experience her husband had
with coffee. 1t seems that he had been
using it for son time and was an
invalid.
The physician in charge shrewdly
suspected that coffee was the worm
at the root of the tree" and ordered
1t discontinued with instructions to
use Postum regularly in it's place.
The wife says: "We found that was
the true remedy for his stomach and
heart trouble and we would have glad
ly paid a hundred times the amount
of the doctors charge when we found
how wise his judgment was.
THE use Of Postum instead of cof-
fee was begun about a year ago, and
II has made my husband a strong. well
man. He has gained thirty-five pounds
In that time and his stomach and heart
troubles have all disappeared.
"The first time I prepared It I did
not boil 1t long enough and he said
there was something wrong with 1t.
Sure enough 1t did taste very fiat, but
the next morning l followed directions
carefully, boiling it for fifteen minutes.
and he remarked this is better than
any of the old coffee

A REMARKABLE RECORD.

Chamberlain, s. Done hundred
consecutive operations OF appendicitis,
seven operations on the stomach, thir-
ty-one tumor removals, three kidneys
removed, besides numerous other op-
erations have been performed by the
surgeons of the Sanitarium at Cham
berlain without a single fatality.
Over three hundred other operations
including the severest in the abdom-
inal cavity with only two fatalities.
The Sanitarium surgeons have per-
formed one thousand five hundred OPP
erations with but two fatalities follow
ing the operation.
The reason for this splendid rec
ord is the careful preparation and
painstaking care bestowed on the pa
tient before the operation, during the
operation and following the operation.
Every case that wishes a private
Lurse has me-, and those who do not
van the extra expense of a special
nurse are cared for in a ward with
one nurse to every our or six patients,
instead of one nurse 70 ten to twenty
five patients as is the custom in the or
binary hospital.
The nurse in charge of the operat-
ing room and the surgical nurse has
mad nine years experience in some of
the foremost hospitals in the country,
and has spared no pains or work TO
make herself proficient in her line.
The treatments given the patients
after operation relieves them of the
strain and distress which causes so
many to dread operations. The pa
tients are constantly under supervi-
sion from the time they enter the sur
Rical department till they leave it, and
when a patient is told that he is
ready to leave he need not fear that
he is going to have bad results after
reaching home. This constant care
and the splendid results obtained have
filled the Sanitarium to overlooking,
and another physician has been added
to the staff, and fifty-five new rooms
are nearing completion.
Patients from sixteen states and
Canada to the number of over 2,100
have been treated in the two years
and four months of the Institutions ex
istence. With the added facilities and
the moderate charges and u~nexcelled
work being done the people of South
Dakota are justly proud of this insti-
tuition and will patronize it in prefer
ence to foreign hospitals because of
the better results.

HAWAII MAYCAN BANANAS.

HONOLULU, Hawaii, March o.
One Of the local canning companies
has been experimenting with bananas
as a canned product, with very pro-
missing results thus far. So far as is
known here canned bananas are a
new thing in the fruit trade, but there
would seem to be no reason why they
should not take we'll, once they be-
came properly known.
Of the fifty or sixty distinct varie-
ties of bananas, only two Of in
different quality are known in the
markets Of the temperate zones. Up
to the present time it has been inn
practicable to introduce many of the
more delicately favored and delici-
Gus kinds Of the fruit, owing to their
very poor shipping qualities, which,
however will be overcome in a large
measure if the canning experiments
prove successful
