NUCLEUS OF WALSH
FORTUNE On HAE WAS AS LAID
IN THE BLACK HILLS
Part Of It Dug From the Ground
and Part Secured Through
Mine Sales.

Deadwood. s D. April 15.-It was
here in the Black Hills. within ten
miles OF this city, that the late Thomas
Z. Walsh, the mining multi-million-
alre Laid the foundation Tor his great
fortune.
In the summer of 1875. prior to the
time when the government had &C
quired from the Sioux Indians the title
to the Black Hills. Walsh came over
land from Cheyenne, Wyo. Enroute
the wagon train. which he accompan-
led. had numerous skirmishes with
Indians and just before reaching Gus
ter City, Walsh's team was stolen,
which left him to make the balance Of
the journey on foot. Reaching Custer
City lie is said 10 have had but S., which
he spent for -four and bacon, the
former being % and the latter IS cents
per pound.
Walsh a Carpenter.
Walsh Was u carpenter and at the
time there was a brisk demand for
men OF this trade. wages being $40
per day. Borrowing a saw and a
plane, he went TO work, continuing
until he had saved $3.50. About this
time gold was discovered in Dead
wood gulch and a stampede set in,
Walsh being n of the first 10 reach
the new diggings. He located in the
90 49, - 80 n NNNAA -+AS SNN - 80
During the work hours of the day, he
prospected for gold and mornings and
evenings, labored on the construction
Of q cabin, built Of logs and covered
with pine bOugus.
In a few weeks the claim in the Two
Bit district was paying SO pei day
and a month later it yielded 500 per
day in nuggets n coarse gold. With
the money saved, he bought the
Anchor claim, adjoining the Two Bit
and h two were worked together. In
two ears Walsh cleaned up $50, 600
and sold out for $50, 900 more. Taking
this money, he went to Colorado,
where he invested in mining property
that inside OF five years made him a
millionaire.
The old cabin that housed Walsh
when he was a poor miner is standing
and the kit of carpenter tools with
which he worked, were sent to him in
Colorado a few months ago.

INDIANS CONSENT
To THE OPENING OF
10000 MORE FARMS
Must Learn by Coming in Con-
tact With Whites-Ready
Made House for Settlers.

Pierre, S. D., April 13.-The Chey-
enne and Standing Rock Sioux have
reluctantly consented to the opening OF
the rest Of their lands, a~ggregating
perhaps 10000 additional homesteads.
The lands are generally of he same
quality as those opened last autumn.
There can be no doubt that this course
is Of equal value to the Sioux and to
the public.
In an elementary way the Sioux are
now prepared TO take some Of h re-
sponsibilities of citizenship, and the
only way is the hard one Of actual
participation. They have many obsta-
cles to encounter n overcome, but
there lis no royal road" The sooner
they begin to share in these response
bilities, the sooner they will be placed
upon a firm footing. Closer contact
with the whites; meeting them daily
in affairs, will sooner than any other
school teach them the value OF things
according TO the standards they must
sooner or later adopt; Will develop the
judgment and make them self-reliant
and successful. They are bound to suf-
fer many hardships on the way up
to citizenship, but the protecting hand
of government will not be wholly with
drawn.
OF course, from the standpoint of
the state and of the public, there is
every argument for breaking up the
reservations, which have been one of
the most serious obstacles to the de-
velopment of the western portion Of
the state.
Settlers to MAKE Good"
The homesteaders who won in the
drawing Of the reservation lands last
autumn are preparing to make good.
A novel feature of the new homestead
movement is the ready-made house.
Building firms have CirculariZed the
claimants most vigorously and a very
large per cent have been induced to
purchase ready-Gnade structures which
may be set up and ready for occupancy
in a few hours after reaching the
land.
A feature which must be most help
full to the newcomers in the trans
Missouri regions are the substatiOns of
the state experiment station located at
Cottonwood and near Belle Fourche,
where experiments in practical farm
ing methods adapted to the region are
carried on. The agriculture! pOssibili-
ties of the section are little known,
even to the most sophisticated. The
methods used in the more humid re-
gionS of the far east are not adapted to
western South Dakota, and the home
steader, left to his own devices, is
likely TO waste much effort and time
in getting the TRICK OF the soil and eli
mate. The s~ubstations are calculated
TO afford practical object lessons in
effective methods, and they are fulfill
ing their mission under the wise di-
rection Of Professor Clifford Willis, the
state agronomist.

GIRLS DEFEND ROBBERS
ATTACK WITH HAT PINS

Hayti, s. D., April 13.-While cross
ing a long bridge just outside of town,
Misses Laura and Agnes May were at
robbery, and were forced to use their
hat pins to defend themselves from the
violence Of the stranger, who snatched
at the handbag carried by Agnes, n
his hand became ~entangled in the long
chain which is attached to the bag,
the other end being over the girls
wrist. Agnes used her free hand to
good advantage and left her nail marks
or her assailant's face. The man
finally succeeded in wrenching the hat
pin from Laura's hand and attempted
to grab her also, but she eluded his
grasp. At this juncture the chain broke
and the man made off with the hand
bag, with the two girls following him,
determined TO recover ii.
Observing the pursuit, the town mar
shall sprang in front of the fugitive, and
by putting out his foot succeeded in
tripping him, fastening the handouts
upon his wrists before he could regain
his feet and again make off. The hand
bag with it's contents was recovered.
The prisoner gives his name as Joseph
Paisana, and states he has no home.
He looked much the worse for the beat
ing the two girls had given him. III
