AmwJ. dimming-, In New Yerk Bun.
Six days have I spent among the peaks
f the Alack Hills. It is a wonderland.
Aptly may the Hills be termed the Azoic
fifthe plains. They are the centre of an
ocean of verdure. They tower above the
vast prairies or Datekn and Wyoming as
the Western Inlands tower above the bread
besom of the Atlantic. Seamed with wild
Irerges, sprinkled with fortlle valleys,
ulelhcd in forests of dark pines, and capped
with tiirroted crags, thev may well
excite awe and admiration. Hut tliev
are far mero valuable thiiu hcuuli
Ail. They are ribbed with lodes of
Beld, silver, tin and cepiier. The golden
fnds of the gulches arc still being
Washed. The llomestnko and ether mlnes
are still pouring out thelr millions over ever
year. TneronrelOO.OOOtousor tin ero eh
dumps awaiting concentration. Loud, Iren,
copper, and ether minerals are found, and
coal has been discovered at the feet of the
hills. Just new the tin prosieelers are the
most active. They are selling their lodes
as fust as they llnd them, and they are find
ing them every week. The plne forests nre
another seurce of wealth. The music of
the circular saw is heard In many a gulch,
and little settlements are springing up like
magic.
Hut this Is net all. The Black Hills glye
birth te a scere or mere of streams that
Slve llfe te an agricultural kingdom below
lern. They water wide vallevs of extra
ordinary fertility. Ne irrigation is needed.
Like Pike's Peak, Harney's Vcak Is a
storm centre, but, unllke l'ike's Peak, it
generously scatters Its showers ever the
wide v alleys and bread nlatcaus that stretch
te the horizon. The effort Is marvelous.
Dakota te-day Is the greatest wheat-producing
country in the Union. I ml tec!. It
is said te be raising nearly uthlitlcth of the'
wheat crop of the world.
The Hlack Hills easW, however, Is only
just beginning te de its shuru of the werli.
Its fertility almost surpasses belief. The
best wheat and eats undoubtedly grew
ujxni its farms. There nre surprising state
ments concerning Its crops. Wheat yields
from 20 te 10 bushels per acre, but samples
of n yield of K4 bushels te the aero are
shown. Jehn Schainrl, who lives two
miles west of Hapld City, recently raised
400 bushels of wheat from ten acres of
ground, and sold It out of the wagon for
ninety cents per bushel. The grains eftlw
lllnck Hills wheat are large and plump.
They seldom fall under seventy pounds te
the bushel. The soil, bear in mind, is net
stimulated. Scratch the rich earth, and
you get your reward without fertilisers.
Oats in the Hills, sewn upon the same
Mill, become top heavy. A field in Hill
City was ceil which yielded nearly sixty
bushels te the aero. Thoeats weighed fully
forty-six pounds te the bushel. The golden
sheaves were a sight te beheld. The heads
were apparently a solid mass of eats, and
the overburdened sprayshungdewn below
tiie girdle of each sheaf. Tills, however, Is
by no means a marvelleus yield for the
HUN. The statement that Sum Scott, who
owns a small plaee adjoining Hapld City,
raised 760 bushels of eats from thrce a-rcs,
seems incredible, Thore is no doubt, how
ever, that Dr. Doty gleaned 050 bushels
from ten acres. His ranch Is en Hex Elder
oreek, only a few miles from the city. The
Hill farms are sheltered ft out the wind,
and well watered and timbored. Ne richer
garden Bpets can be found. Vegetables
attain an unusual slze without losing their
fluver. A potato, weighing ever ten
teunds, grown in a gulch, has been ox ex
libitcd. When baked it proved mealy
from skin te heart, and satisfied the ap
petites of four men.
A luxuriant grewtii of grass extends ever
fhe w hole legion. The wild grass turns
out tremendous crops of hay. Timethy,
clever, blue grass, eichard "grass, millet,
red-top, and alfalfa equal wheat in growth.
Hcsldes this nature has supplied six va
rieties of wild grass. Hye, barley, corn,
buckwheat, and sorghum thrlve wonder
fully. A faimer may raise grain in the
low hills and mountain slopes. Thovulleys
are lovely. Peaks clothed te the very top
with dark pines surround them. Crystal
springs purl through tbciu. They head in
springs of the purest watur, and they are
fed by the snows and rainfalls of the moun
tains. Many of tiie valleys are under cul
tivation. Others await the nppieciatlve
husbaudui'iu.
Ten years from new, when the tin mines
are fully develops!, these alleys will un
doubtedly prove f.ir mero valuable than
the geld placers in the gulches. Penning
ton county, of which Hapld City is tiie
shire town, includes the hcail et the hills.
It lias about 5,000 farms under various
.tnges of cultivation. Tlioiearo very l'uw
burns and very few ideal farm houses.
Settlers who have Just taken up choice
locations frequently live in wall tents.
Uimjii the cultivated fauns you llnd the
latest improved agilcultuial implements.
A farmer was seen using a mewing
machine, while his wife followed with a
horse rake. They weie gathering in the
icceiid crop of hay for the season. Most of
the firms In the valley are taken up.
There are choice tuble lauds in the country
round the hills, seme of which aie still
open te settlement. They are subject te
rainfalls, and, with few exceptions, are
Mild te be fully as feitile as the lands in
the vnllevs.
Aside from agriculture, the drainage of
the Hills sustains an immense cattle in
dustry. Nearly a million cittle brew se en
the grass bordering streams that have
their seurce near Harney's Peak. They
dot the valleys as lar as the eye can see.
They feed upon the native grasses, sum
mer and winter. These cittle mostly es
caped the rigors of the winter that proud
se disastrous in Mentana and upper Wyo
ming a few years age. Huge trains laden
with them are beginning te roll down the
Klkhern lead tewaid Omaha and Chicago.
Tliose trains have the right of way, and
frequently attain n speed of forty-llve
miles an "hour. "If you are ever in a
hurry te get out et the Black Hills coun
try," said W. It. Wilsen, or Fremont,
"take a hog train. You'll get here twelve
hours ahead of the regular express. "
Tiie choicest grazing laiuU in the entire
Northwest are found in thu Hills. It seems
te be u paradise for stock mixers. Proba
bly net mero than a twentieth efthcaiea
Is tit for cultivation. The remainder is
covered with forests. It makes the finest
ranges for stock and sheep. Thore are
ranges along most of the sti earns Mow Mew
ing from the Hills. The great cattle kings
of the district arc C. J. White and the
Weeds Brethers. They own 10,000 head,
and have ever $1,000,000 invested in the
business. The management is concen
trated at Hanld City. I-ist year they
shipped ever 10,000 cattle, yielding a wish
return of ever 100,000 The saine cei posi
tion owns a great herse ranch, with se en
miles of never-failing water. It is stecked
with 1,000 line mares and 'M pure-brcd
Pprehoren, Clyaevlale, and.Shliu stallions.
It Is said te return 'JO per cent, a ye.ir in
dividends. These ranches, however, are
only a surface indication of what is being
done. There are many breeding farms
within a day's rldn et the Hills. It is a
liort.e country. Everybody listens with
pleasure te the soil click of the hoof.
Thore are nvcingassoclatiens ut Hapld City
and Deudwoed. Geed time is made anil
the purses this fall aggregate 0,00 .
A ranch w ithlu a mile and a h ilf of Hapld
City has fourteen standard broil mures, all
with foal by the noted stallion Saturn.
When completed it will be the lamest
breeding establishment in the West. Per Per Per
choreii and English Hhlre horses aie te be
added, with a view of breeding stock for
range purposes. A string of French coach
horses and marcs are en the way here. Ne
opportunity for improvement will be
missed. Meney Is te be spent without
stint. The herse ranches around Hapid
City may in time become, us famous us
theso in'Kentueky and California. Small
ranches are springing up in every direction.
There are seven en Hanid creek, nine en
Hex Elder and several en Spring creek.
Edward Lyneh's is a fair example. He lias
2.4SJ acres, tjventy-flve miles southeast of
Hapld City en Hapld creek. Sevcntr breed
inares pranoe ever the ranch. They nre
Auiei Au ijurts and are inbred with
French coach horses. S. P. Cenrad has 400
horses en a :i,OO0-cre ranch en Hex Klder,
and the Overback brothers have a larger
ranch en Spring creek. The herse indus
try premises te be a seurce of great wealth
te the country.
The lllack Hills arise from a series of pla
teaus from 3,600 te 5,000 feet abeve sea
level. Harnev's Peak is 8,300 feet abeve It.
Prem its top tiie distant plains leek like the
swelling undulation of the sea. Ne ether
mountain ranges are in sight, Even the
Uig Hern and Powder mountains are Ih
yond view. Immediately below you Is n
wilderness of granite pinnacles, hills,
ravins, canons, gulches, parks, and
streams, and beyond the circle an ocean of
vendure and dry grass. Just new the
view Is dimmed by the smoke from the
Mentana pralrie fires, limit black
patches en the plains below tell
you that such fires are net confined te
Mentana. The fanners along the
Klkhern railroad mew the grass and weeds
along the track and then burn It. They
thus prevent tires that might preve disas
trous te their crops and cattte. A thousand
farmers are at work along the track this
week, and the heat In the cars is at times
almost insufferable.
The I'rnlt of the lllack Hills is remarka
ble. Apples, ears, plums, cherries and
grapes grew te a large slze and are unu
sually luscious. Hale A Thomsen, who
own a nursery flve miles abeve Hapld
City, are sending te the state fair a choice
collection of fruits. They luclude Duchess
of Oldenburg and Weltliy apples, and Mar
tin, Hyslep, transcendent, and Siberian
crab apples, and Concord grapes. They
would de credit te California.
The hills cover 3,200 square miles, and
He In the extreme southwestern part of
Seuth Dakota. Tiie scenery is magnificent.
In years te comethey will undoubtedly be
a favorite resert for tourists. Thore are no
trout In the brooks, nor are there any lakes
in the hills. Small chubs and suckers are
the only fish te Ite found. The plne trees
are filled with red squirrels, but they are
net tit te cat. They feed upon plne cones
almost exclusively. When cooked their
flesh retains the taste of the pine. The
irreuud snuirrels are strllsxl llke chip
munks, and are net much larger than
mice. They infest ,e?ery dwelling and
granary. A mele as large as a rat is a cu
riosity. He heaves bushels of subsoil
te the surface, and seems te enjoy
himself Imineuscly. Elk and butl.ile
have disappeared. A few cinnamon
bears and seme black-talled deer nre
loll. The deer are ulready pretected by
game laws. Habhlts are leund, but the
hawks and eagles prevent their rapid In
crease. There are no beaverH, minks, nor
fur-bcarlng animals. A few quails have
been brought from the East, and are said te
be doing well. Heblns and meadow larks
are plentiful, but tliore nre no brown
thrushes or orioles. Hlackblrds hover ever
the wheat fields in donse clouds. A stray
mocking bird is Nomctlme scen, but he
quickly wends his way back te Texas. Tiie
English sparrow has net yet found this
paradise, and the ground chippy has the
country te himself. Thcre are a few oaks
and quaking asps In the valleys, but the
moil of the timber Is yellow plne. Gelden
nxl, wild nces, blackberries, thistles and
wild suutlowers are plentiful. I saw no
million stalks nor wild pirsulps.
The cllmate Is delightful. The sum liter
months nre characterized by warm days
and cool night i. The alris pure at.d w hole helo hole
somo. I.igut showers are frequent. Tor
nadoes are rate. The autumn mouths are
lovely. Warm weather remalnsuntil alter
thu holidays. It Is asserted that thcre are
mero davs of sunshine in the lllack Hills
than in any ethor part of the United States.
The winters nre cold, but thcre Is little
snow. Sleighs are nover used. The mer
cury seldom rises abeve 110' In summer.
In winter it sometimes readies CO" below
zero. The cllmate is especially faverable
te theso sutlering from pulmonary and
malarial diseases. It has all the geed qual
ities of the air of Colerado, without the
light, rarelied atmosphere Yeu boldem
hear or sickness in the lilack Hills.
The border days nre past. The read ugent
has disappeared. The hills are as sale for
travelers as the reads of New England.
The Indians are kept iien reservations
hundreds of miles away. I have been here
sixteen days without seeing a solitary sav
age. The people are hospitable and enter
taining. They nre proud of the country,
and have glowing hopes of Its luture. It
is still in its infancy, but it is grew lug llke
a giant. Thirteen years have passed since
the Custer massacre. The lllack Hills were
then developing the tlrst germs of com
mercial life. Te-day uelty of 5,000 Inhab
itants squats at its gateway, and thcre are
00,000 miners and laborers within sight of
Harney's Peak. It leeks as though some
body was menkeying with Aladdin's lamp.

The internal revenue tax en cigars and

the convention of thoCigarmakeis' Inter
national Union In New Yerk, en Tuesday.
In his biennial report Prcsldennt Strasser
had spoken in favor of the retention of the
Internal revenue tax, nnd recommended,
in case Its repeal should be proposed at the
coming session of Congress, the coutln ceutln coutln
uaiice of the Union's pretest against such a
moasure. The rommlttce en elliccrs' re
ports reported adversely te the president's
recommendation. A minority report was
also submitted in its favor.
Jehn S. Klrchner. of Union 100. Pliilndel-
nil
by

Te-day the tenement house system is con
fined te New Yerk city. The internal
revenue system is in the direction of cen
tralizing our industry. Its abolition would
mean greater competition and an iucieasu
of the garret system." Samuel Getnpcrs,
of Union 111, New Yerk, also favored thu
tax.
President Strasser ridiculed the idea of
overy cigarmakcr'u wanting te beceme a

in borough and townships, unconstitu

cause why the county commissioners
should net be compelled te Issue te Themas
J. Jerdan thu county tax duplicate for thn
borough of Olyphant. Air. Jerdan was
elected tax collector for that borough. Hu
qualified, filed his bend, and took the oath
ofelbeo. Then he demanded the duplicate
of county taxes fiem the county commis
sioners. They refused te deliver It te him,
claiming that the acl of 1B85 was unconsti
tutional, aud he thereupon commenced
priK-eedlngs.
Thu judge lu tits opinion says its title Is
net sufficient te sustain any enactment with
respect te county taxes, it Is entitled " an
act regulating the collection of taxes lu
thn suv oral Isiieughs and townships iu
this ceuimuiiw culth." Theru is no sugges
tion lu these words of nu Intent te legislate
with regard te anything oxcept borough and

Twe Innocent People Sutler nt the Hands

A dispatch from Elderado, Kansas, gives
the Improssive sequel te the story of Mr.
and Mrs. Edwards, two bands employed
en ihe farm et Geerge Dudley, who en
Thursday last narrowly escaped death at
the hands of a mob.
This application of lynch law was de
scribed In the I.NTtXLlur.Ner.n of Monday,
nnd It wilt be roincmlx.Ted that Mr. nnd
Mrs. Edwards wero charged with the mur
der of a child left In their charge by a Mrs.
Hloemur. The child lind dlsajipcnreil and
the crowd put a row around Airs. Edwards'
neck nnd threatened te hang her unless she
confessed. Inn moment of terror she said
Hint stie had thrown the child In the creek,
mid proceedings were suscnded until the
stream could be dragged, The dispatch
continues the story :
Ne body was found. Shn was taken te
the nearest tree nnd n ree placed around
tier neck. Shn wns told the fnte Hint
nwnlted her If she did net tell where the
body of the dead child wns te be found.
She repeated tier former assertion. Then
she was given nu opportunity te eirer
prayer, and was then drawn up from the
ground. She was allowed te remain sus
pended lu the air for a mlmite, until tier
lace became black. Shu was then lowered
te the ground, unconscious.
When she revived shu wns asked If she
was ready te tell the truth. The jSHir
woman was actually loe badly frightened te
sHak, and, assuming hersllelice te be vol
untary, the mob again fastened the repe
about her neck, nnd she was agstu sus
pended In the air. Tilts (line stie was per
mitted te remain longer, and when cut
down she was mero dead than alive. The
mob vvnsulieut te hang her the thlid time,
when Hloemcr, Iho father of the missing
child, persuaded the mob te desist, only,
however, becnuse If Mrs. Edvvurds' llfe
was Inken Iho body of thn child
could never be found. Mrs. Kdwnrds wns
then taken te the house nnd gunrded. In
the meantime thntnitef the mob which
had Edwurdslu charge attempted te extract
a confession from him. Unpretested his
Innocence. He, tee, was hanged from a
true and cut down, liu could net be made
te confess.
Friday night the prisoners wero placed
lu Jail there. Frem then te this morning a
mob of from 500 te 1,000 lias continually
surrounded the Jail, clamoring for the lives
of the accused. The sheriff barricaded the
doers and, arming himself nnd Jidlors,kept
(he mob at bay.
Early this morning the missing child
was, leund, nltve aud well, sitting en thu
doorstep of a fanner near Hesalla. Wliore
It had been ail the time Is it mystery. It
wns unable te speak plainly, and can glve
no account of Itself. It Is supiosed that It
was kidnapped and returned when II was
found what excitement its disappcaruuee
was causing. When the news of the find
ing of the child was brought te the city the
mob could net be made te believe the
truth until thu child was priKluced and
rocegiil.od by Its mother. Mr. and Mrs.
Edvv arils were tlien released, They are
still siill'eriugfrum the effects of thelr harsh
liealinent. ihe marks of the tope, whom
It had cut their necks, are plainly visible,
and Indlcate that their sullcrlngs must
have been great. An attempt will be made
te prosccute the Ieaders of tiie mob.
