The occasion was historic pageant
In honor of the fiftieth anniver-

the Black Hills.
What Suffer and the days OF 40
mean to the annals of California is
signified to South Dakotans in the
name of II. N. Ross and the year
1874. Ross made the first practical
discovery of gold at Custer July "a,
of that year, and from the event has
developed the greatest low-grade
gold producing mine In the world,
and an industry that contributes one
tenth OF the annual output of this
metal In the United States.
For some years Custer, the Oldest
town in the Black Hills, named after
the veteran Indian fighter who met
Big Horn, has paid modest tribute to
his original Sour dough-" but this
year a dozen cities joined hands To
make the semi-centennial historic

prairie schooner, stage coach. and OK

The town of Custer dropped out OF
focus in the Dakota gold stampede as
suddenly as It had risen to fame
when, the year following the original
discovery, far richer 'diggings" were
located near the present cities OF
Lead and Deadwood, but the com.
munity could not be deprived Of its

A monument of Black Hills speci

the veteran Ross. who lived and dice
at Custer. Also large fund has
been raised for memorial TO Mrs
Annie ID. Tallant, who arrived with

prospectors overland in prairie
schooner in the late fall OF that first
year and remained--the first white
woman in the Black Hills.

On the 9th of April Tobey Rid

sioners to Captain Jacks camp with
a message that they desired to have
another talk with the Indians. They
wanted Jack to meet them with five
of his men, unarmed, agreeing
themselves to likewise attend the
council without weapons. Jack
sent back word that he and his
men would come. On the return
of Tobey Riddle to the camp of
the commissioners, she was over
taken by William Faithful, one of
the Modoc braves, who was, more
over, a cousin of Tobey. He warned
the Modoc woman of the decision

ssBigfoot,'' One of The
Largest of w olives has
been Captured Stock
Growers are Jubilant

Bigfoot, one of the largest and
most destructive gray wolves ever
reported has finally been caught
The animal was about 20 years old
and weighed lao pounds. He
measured six feet, nine inches long
and was aboAt three feet high.
1t seems thai he was raised down
on Indian creek about three miles
south of Buffalo, Wyoming. From
there he went to Barber creek, then
TO Cowhide creek, and from there to
the Devils Tower region. After
leaving the latter place he remained
a while on Deffenbaugh creek before
going to the region Of Gillette where
he was captured recently by govern
ment trapper, Charles Freel.
One rancher affirms that "Bigfoot'
killed over ten head OF cattle for him,
and another farmer lost about so
head from the same source. For
another he killed Ia calves I'm one
night and Is known TO have killed So
sheep In two days at another ranch.
AS souvenirs OF his fighting career
he carried many scars. The left eye
was gore, part of HIS tail and a toe
from his left hind foot we're missing.
His tusks were considerably worn
down but, even so, they measured
two inches.
A conservative estimate of the
damage to livestock would be around
100000. For fifteen years deter
mined and repeated efforts have been
made to capture "Bigfoot" but years
only seemed TO increase his almost
human cunning and intelligence.

him with being an old woman" A
dozen of his warriors told him his
advice was not good. Let us take
the advice of Black Jim" they
urged. Eve are doomed anyway.
Let us fight and die like true Mo
docs"
Captain Jack was called coward
and a squaw and in derision one of
the warriors threw a shawl over
his shoulders and a squaw's hat was
forced on his head. This enraged
the chief, and he declared he would
show them that he was a true Mo-
doc. 1t was thereupon decided
much against the advice and plead

BUMPER CROPS ARE
RESTORING BANKS
OF THE NORTHWEST
FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS ARE
BEING PLACED BACK ON
SOUND FOOTING
Number of Bank Failures West of
the Mississippi Decreasing; Much
Improved Credit Situation for the
Great Farm Area Is Foreseen.

With the number of bank fall
ures decreasing rapidly from month
to month in the states west of the
Mississippi river, where stringent
credit conditions obtained last VIM
ter, high treasury officials at
Washington have expressed the be-
lief that the reported bumper
wheat crop in many of those states
had placed the financial institu-
lions of those districts on their
feet again.
Treasury records show that 342
banks were forced to close their doors
between January and July /. These
include 267 state, and 70 national
institutions, and while few more
have gone out of business since, the
records show that the failures in May
we're 30 per cent fewer than in April
in states west of the Mississippi and
rs per cent less in June than in May.
In Better Condition.
Despite the long list of failures,
the treasury believes that any tight
ening of credit that may come next
winter will have little effect on the
banks. They have been able to for
tify themselves in various ways and
are now prepared to Withstand any
calls that may come to them, except,
of course, in isolated cases where the
strain may be too great.
The agricultural credit corpora
tion organized last spring at the d.
rection of President Coolidge has
been able to open some 20 of the
banks that failed and advices to the
treasury indicate that several score
more in the northwestern states are
now receiving aid which will enable
them to weather any new crisis.
Will Liquidate Loans.
Commenting further on the re-
ported big crops in many of the big
wheat growing sections, officials de-
clared this meant that millions OF
dollars in credit extended to farmers
would be liquidated or the loans re-
duced this fall and paper which some
of the banks had been forced to
charge off would now become obliga-
tions, upon which the banks would
realize.
The treasurys figures on bank fail
ures showing what is believed to be
a nearly correct list of all the fail
ures west of the Mississippi river, in
cluded:
Texas one national bank and Z
state banks; Minnesota, and &c;
North Dakota, and SO: South Da-
kota, IL and So; Montana 1 and 28;
Wyoming, and 8: Colorado, 2 and
