The special DOaru OF cavalry Objects 10
determine the equipment OF cavalrymen
and their mounts will probably be designa-
ted next week in orders from the War de-
partment. Recommendations have been
made for the personnel Of that board which
will meet, according to the present plan, at
Rock Island, H., where has been in session
for year OF more the board to reduce the
burden of the foot soldier. The latter
board is completing It's Investigations and
will shortly make a report as a result OF
very thorough study of the questions and
tests conducted under practical conditions.
The work Of the cavalry equipment board
will be of similar character, taking advan-
tage, OF course, OF the conclusions of the
infantry equipment board so far as they
pertain to the mounted arm. The board
will have the assistance OF a troop Of cav
airy, probably one from the Sixth regi-
ment, on duty at Fort Des Molnes. Ia by
this means new devices, Of which the chief
Of ordnance of the army has q large num-
Der OF suggestions, may be tried out in
actual service under the observation OF the
officers. There are numerous questions 20
be presented to the board relating to the
equipment of the soldier and the horse.
It is desired to ascertain what improve
ments may be made and II II Is possible to
effect a reduction in weight Of the articles
carried. Among the subjects to be consid-
cred are a compressed forage ration for
the horses, the modification OF the saddle
the adoption OF a pad in place OF the blan-
ket, and an improvement in the saber. The
board is not expected to 90 into the sub
ject Of the rifle or the pistol. Many cav
airy officers believe that the present rifle
should be abandoned In favor OF one which
is shorter and less heavy, expressing pre-
ference in some cases for a return TO the
old carbine. The question ut choice be-
tween the automatic r:Ssoi and the revolver
Is also one which engages discussion. but
the subject OF weapons for mounted troops
is likely to be referred to a special board
instead Of being discussed by the cavalry
eouipment board at Rock Island

The army medical authorities are greatly
interested I'm extending the benefits OF vac
cination as means Of preventing typhoid.
The success which has attended this pre-
cautinary measure abroad, especially in
the British army, has justified the adop-
ton Of this system in the United states
army. Up to this time the vaccination has
been administered only to volunteers and
there is a great difference in the number
OF those who present themselves for this
minor treatment. Much depends, as has
been stated in these columns. upon the
persuasive qualities Of the post surgeon.
been vaccinated. At other places that the
percentage OF volunteers is very small.
1t is expected that the limit has
been reached with the volunteers
and, unless the vaccination is made COM
pulsory, there Is not likely TO be many
more who consent to the vaccination. The
recommendation has been made by the
surgeon general OF the army that accepted
recruits be vaccinated as a part OF the
process of enlistment. BY this means in
time a large part of the enlisted force
will have heceived this protection against
typhoid. The statistics prepared by Major
F. f. Russell of the army medical corps,
show that of the $3.50 vaccinations nine
tenths of l per cent were severe, 81 per
cent were moderate, 25S per cent were
mild, and Ss per cent had no reaction what
ever This indicates the little incon-
venience which is experienced from the

Lumber From Old Landmark

Pierre-Robinson Brothers of west
ern Stanley county have recently
torn down one of the old log houses
on the Deadwood t all. and are con-
verting the logs into lumber with their
mill. This structure was one OF the
first put up on the trail between
Pierre and the Hills, having been built
in 1876 by Grizzly" Shoun to be used
as a road house on the trail. while
he had to with out for hostile In
dams as well as care for travellers to
the Hills. S. s. Shoun, the builder,
was a Tennesseean who came north at
the close of the war, and after wan
dering over the west came to the
Black Hills with the first of them,
and decided that a road house on the
trail was exciting enough for him, and
settled down at a point on the trail
near G~rindstone Butte, where he re-
sided up to the time of his death.
He was one of the well known char
acters of the western part Of the state,
as travellers on the old trail all pass
ed his place.

BODY Found in Snow

A~berdeen-A farmer driving int

cred mound near the roadside, and
stopping to investigate found the body
of a man. He hurried to town and
notified the authorities, who returned
to the spot and discovered the dead
body to be that of Nels Olsen, a Danish
farm hand, As years of age, who had
left his place of employment three
weeks ago armed with an old musket,
to go hunting. There was an ugly
wound extending to the hone, in the
left leg, indicating that the old weap-
on had been accidentally discharged.
The marks on the ground showed that
Olsen, after receiving the hurt. had
tried to use the musket as a crutch, to
enable him to reach a farm house some
distanfe away, but that he had finally
become exhausted from loss o. blood,
and had lain down and frozen to
death. He had no known re atives in
this country, and will be bu led in the

men of this part of the state, an
artesian we'll now is nearino CON-

water some miles from here, and as
a result Millions of fish will be saved.

1t was certain it would freeze to the
bottom this winter If something was
not done and that the countless fish
which it contained would be killed.
Mr.. Taubman took the matter in
hand and secured a sufficient fund by
voluntary contributions to have the
artesian we'll drilled. At a depth o.
$50 feet the drillers struck a flow OF
300 gallons per minute. The immense
flow from the well will raise the wa
