ed their January session Yesterday,
which consisted of checking up the
books Of the county officers, and ar
ranging for other yearly business.
Salaries of deputies remain as last

$45 per month.
The only change made by the
board was in the official county

His Own Fault

Two young employees of a florist
IN Philadelphia, who was supposed
to be variously employed in the
rear of the establishment while the
boss looks after things in front,
were recently startled by the ap-
pearance Of the ''old man. while
they were ~engrossed in a game of
checkers.
The proprietor was justly Indig,
nant. How is it, he demanded,
THAT | hardly ever find you fellows
at work when | come out here?'

youths, 'it's on account Of those
rubber hesls you insist on wear

Man Or Beast ?

He drove to town one day during
the 20 below weather, tied his faith
full and patient horse to a street
hitching post. and then sought the
comforts Of life. He got himself a
drink to warm up. followed by a
good hot dinner and a cigar. Dur
ing the balance of the day he en-
loved himself and forgot his horse
until dark. The price of n drink
or two of his cigars would have
stabbed his poor dumb servltor
standing there shivering in the Sc
we're cold for hours.
Would not that horse pay for his
| stabling several times over by more
work, or by bringing more money
if sold? Is it either human or
economical to treat a horse so? The
laws of South Dakota make 1T sub
ject to a fine of S25.

BIG POWER PLANT
IN BLACK HILLS
HOmestake Company Completed
A Project that Consumed 3
Years in Building

Lead, S. D., Jan. 4-One of the
greatest engineering projects in the
northwest has been completed in the
Black Hills, being the hydro electric
power plant Of the famous Home
stake Mining company, which in
voIved the construction of a five
mile tunnel and other works, the
whole costing 81, 600, 900, and re-
curing three years to complete
The power house is situated on
on Spearfsh creek, where an i'm
mense dam has been constructed
for the purpose of furnishing the
necessary water power. The dam
which extends across Spearfsh can
yon is four hundred feet in length,
with a siXteen-foot base and taper
ing to four or FIVE feet at the top.
The tunnel extends for a distance
of five miles under and through the
mountains from Spearfish creek to
the immense plant of the Home
stake company at Lead. At some
points the tunnel passes through all
kinds OF loose material. At other
places it passes hundreds of feet
below the surface and through the
hardest kind of rock known to the
miner.
The floor and walls of the tunnel
to the height of four feet are con-
GREETED and more than half the
length has an arched ceiling of con-
crete above the perpendicular walls.
The tunnel is six and one-half feet
wide by eight and one-half feet in
height. The excavation tor the
tunnel was much larger, in some
places where the rock was loose and
sliding more than twice as large as
the completed work. There are a
few graceful eurves in the tunnel
and one straight stretch of 5000
feet.
At the north end of the tunnel
there is a big concrete reservoir.

HOTEL BURNS
AT WESSINGTON
Pioneer Hostelry of Town Totally
Destroyed Tuesday ~

The Washington Hotel, owned and
conducted by c.. F. Flynn and wife
was totally destroyed by fire early
Tuesday morning. together with
practically all of its contents. The
fire originated in the third story,
perhaps from a defective chimney,
and was so quickly a mass of flames
that the fire department could not
check it. Two streams with good
pressure saved the adjoining build
ings,
Mr. and Mrs Flynn saved nothing,
and got out themselves very scantiiy
clothed. Mr. and Mrs Andrew
Churchill, former Miller people,
were also boarding at the hotel. All
they saved of their clothing and
handsome wedding presents, was an
armful of clothing which Mrs
Churchill gathered as they a out
of their room, and consisting of a
suit Of Mr. ChurchiII's, two dresses
and her fur coat. Miss Gertie
Don2y, dining room girl, was for
tunate in getting all her personal
effects out.
The building and contents were
valued at about $4,000. and carried
an insurance of $4,000 on the build
ing and $1,000 en- contents.
This hotel was one of the oldest
along the C. & n. w. and must have
been built as early as 1882 or 1888.
Mr. FLYNN purchased it several years
ago and greatly improved it. Mr.
and Mrs Flynn were formerly citi-
zens of Miller, where he was c.. &
n. w. station agent. They are
good hotel people, and made a sue
cess of the business. They are stop
ping now with Mrs Flynn's sister,
Mrs B. F. Torrey at the Vanderbilt
hotel.
