Mrs. Quisenberry ta 80 badly burned that she I8 unable to see. The face is so swollen that she is scarcely able to speak and so far no intelligible conversation can be bad with her | Mr. Quisenberry says that his wite and | six of the children were sleeping in an upstairs room, in which there were several beds. On the fatal morning, Thursday, Mrs. Quisenberry evidently arose at an unusually early hour. After the accldent the husband, who slept In a room in the lower story of the house with a hired man, found that she had put potatoes on the #tove for the breakfast meal. It was her {dea to have the breakfast early in order to allow tiie men to get into the hayfields on time.

Riper Files Clatm for Twenty-Five Thou. sand Dollars. Ex-) Van (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Oct. 6.—(Special.)—The sen- sational disruption in the management of the Lincoln Gas and Electric company three months ago is again brought to pub- Me attention by the filing in New York of a $25,000 damage sult against the former owners of the company by ex-Manager J. C. Van Riper. The defendants in the ac- tlon are Robert C. Wood and J. Cralg Havemeyer of 30 Broad street, New York. Mr. Van Riper alleges that the owners of the compmny circulated a prospectus which greatly exaggerated the earning ca- paclty of the plant, which inaccuracies, he insists, were inserted for the purpose of inducing various banking institutions and financial Interests to purchase the com- pany's stock and bonds. These statements, he avers, were made to bear his name as the resident manager of the plant. He claims that his reputation has suffered greatly in consequence of the d&fandants’ action and he declares that he has been damaged financially to the extent of $25,000. Since the trouble which caused the filing of the damage suit the ownership of the plant has been assumed by the Emerson McMlillan syndicate. Prizes for Beat Kept Lawna.

D., Oct Another large mining deal is pending on the Homestake ore belt, not far north of the Uncle Sam mine. Colorado capitalists are backing the enterprise. There is on this property a veln of free milling ore ex- posed which is of unknown width, the cross- cuts and shafts showing ore for fifty feot, with neither sidewall. The proposition s another of the “manufacturing” enterprises which are attracting so much attention just at present. The people who intend to float the deal represent $1,000,000 of thefr own cupital and they have any amount held | by their friends, who will contribute to the needs of the undertaking. There are 400 | acres of ground in the deal and there are surface indications equal to the Homestake, | which is located but six miles farther north, The possibilities of the great Homestake ore belt are only just commencing to be comprehended. The phenomenal richness | of the large shoot of ore In the Uncle Sam mine, which fs astonishing the hest of the mining people, is doipg much toward get- ting other large companfes at work along the Homestake belt. It is stated that the | Uncle Sam ore shoot at the 400-foot level 1s forty-five feet wide and from eighty to 100 feet long. Only twenty of the sixty stamps are dropping on ore at present. It is stated that the cleanup per month amounts to about $75,000. This would make the ore run about $21 per ton gold | Clover Leaf Seldom Unfolds. The Clover Leat company, which fs operating the mine, Is a close corporation and it is a difficult matter to get reliable information about its output and ore re- serves. But the fact that the company | has ordered additional stamps and has in- stalled one of the largest steel holsting plants in the Black Hills argues well for | the future of the mine. The Homestake | belt is now being very thoroughly pros- | pected and some very good discoveries of free milling ledges have already been re- ported this fall. The time Is now oppor- | tune for big deals, requiring a capital paid | in of $500,000 | The Dakota Mining company's cyanide | plant, with 100 tons daily capacity, has now been running ten days and the first cleanup | has been made. The extraction for the | first run of ore was as good A8 was ex- pected and the management is greatly elated. This plant is a combination of the stamp mill and tanks The ore I8 not amalgamated, however, it being merely crushed and made ready for the cyanide | 8.—(Special)— | tanks. This company will be a good divi- dend payer. Bus on th Tin King. The United States’ Tin company has set ten miners at work on the Tin King and Centvry mines at Hill City and Oreville. This is the first actual development work tl Hills since | i | that has been started on tin in the Black | the collapse of the Harney | Peak Tin company a dozen years ago. | Very few outslde people realize what a demand there is on at present for tin- | bearing ground. All of the old properties | | that were considered good propositions a | dozen years ago are on the market again | and good prices are being asked for them. | There are four good companies in the field now in Pennington and Custer counties and a number of tin experts are slyly looking around. A large group of claims six mliles below Keystone, owned by the Swanson brothers, which was partly sold to the Harney Peak Tin company for $80,000, has been bonded to eastern parties and a deal Is sure to be made. A cablegram from London thiw weeld stated that experts for the American | | Tinplate company would he on the ground | | to examine a well known property at Ore } | | ville and it is known that the United States | Tin - company of Columbus, O., which 18 | being promoted by E. J. Miller, a personal | friead of Mark Hanna, bas other ground {in view. Tt is expected that the famous | Sally Cavanaugh tin mine at Oreville will | be #0ld before the middle of this month. Takes World's Fair Medn This property consists of 400 acres of | quartz claims and gold placer, with a water right on Spring creek and a flume | three miles long. The ore from the main | ledge carrled away the first medal at the World's falr for being the richest tin ore | in the world. Mrs. Jefft McDermott owns the mine and she has parties of world r nown negotfating for it. All of this ex. | citement in tin is certaln to bring about some good result. This time the develop- ment of the tin properties is in the han: of smaller companies and the matter will {be honestly handled and the question whether or not tin I8 to be found in the | | Black Hills in commercial quantities will| forever be settled. A rich strike of free milling ore has been made by Richard Dwyer on the divide between Castle creek and Slate creek, five miles northwest of Mystic. In this same vicinity W. R. Castle and assoclates are opening up a large vein of free milling and concentrating ore, which runs better | than $20 per ton gold. ~The ground s | | 1ocated at Wheeler hill, from which $50,000 | | has been taken In placer gold. The coun- | try along Castle creek is rich in free mill- | ing velns. Still Hope for Rich Strike. Black Hills Belt Development com pany of Colorado Springs, which is develop- | ing a block of ground south of Lead, 1s approaching the 700-foot level with the | shaft, and the dlamond drill which was | | started about 1,000 feet east of the shaft, 15 | down about 600 feet. The company pr | poses to commence crosscutting the for- fon soon, possibly at the 700-foot level | Thers was some hope that the shaft would strike the ore vein, but thus far there has been very little ore in the workings. The big ore vein may be a short distance efther to the east or to the west. The company 1s golng to find it, it such a thing is pos- stble. Down near Mystic the company Is patenting a millsite at the forks of Rapid and Castle creeks, A flume of considerablo length has been bullt and as soon as ore has been encountered work on large mills will be commenced. In the Yellow creek district the Wasp No. 2 Mining company of this city has doubled the capaclty of the fAifty-ton cyanide plant. There are many thousands of fons of $4 ore in the mine which is considered very low grade to treat by any process in the Hills. There is also a large amount of $5 to $10 ore, which would give a hand- some dividend with a fifty-ton plant. Good Cleanup on Low Grade, In order to be able to successtully handle the $4 ore the plant was increased in ca- pacity and the company Is now making about the same cleanup on this low grade rock as {t did on the higher grade with the fifty-ton glant. The suceess of the compapy at this mine 18 acting as a stimu- lant to other companies to increase their mill capacity and handle more of the low grade rock. This Wasp company s pay- | torneys, | fought the robbers with guns, but all es- ing & monthly dividend of about $4,000, which goes into the pockets principally of Deadwood people. The amount of $4 and | $5 ore in the Black Hills that will yield from 85 to 92 per cent of its value to the cyanide process is simply beyond the com- prehension of anyone. The cyanide process is working marvels in the Black Hills. It is the talk and the dream of the mining men. Capitalists are flocking to the Hills | to Investigate the reports that they have | heard outside of the Hills. | The Edna Exploration company, organ- ized by Deadwood business men, fs de- veloping some properties in the Garden City district which is one of the best min- ing camps for the cyanide process. The ore 1s both flat and vertical and it averages | about $10 per ton gold. There ia an old | custom cyanide plant in the district | GEBHARD SUES FOR DlVORCEj Former Friend of Jersey South Dakota Cour! Free from Lily Asks o Set Him oulse Mori SI0UX FALLS, 8. D/, Oct. 8.—(8pecial.)— All speculation as to the reason why Fred Gebhard of New York, former friend of Lily Langtry, took up his residence in Sioux Falls last April, {s now removed.

Tho suit | XV, 2 “And the Pharisees and scribes for divorce will evidently be without sen- | sational features, as it is based upon I!u‘" simple ground of desertion. Following the customary procedure, it Is probable that | within the next two weeks the hearing will be Leld and Gebhard granted the divorce | which he seeks. The defendant before marriage was Miss Loulse Morris of Baltimore. She was for years the acknowledged belle of that city and as such kept her set talking. Her feat of walking through a fountain in Bal- timore one winter night just because some one dared her to do 80 has been equaled | by other exploits. For a year prior to coming Dakota Gebhard and his wife are said to have lived apart. He occupied apartments | at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York, while she was domiciled o a Veautiful home at 6 East Seventy-ninth street, with a retinue of servants. A short time after Gebhard departed from New York with his trunks and a valet on his way to Sioux Falls, Mr: Gebhard left for Westbury, L. I, where Mr. Gebhard bullt her a handsome couutry residence after their marriage. Upon coming to Sloux Falls Gebhard en- gaged a sulte of rooms at the Taton hotel Within the last few days he has removed to the Cataract hotel. His recreation has been to participate in the sports arranged by local associations. Soon after coming | to Sioux Falls he joined the local Gun club, | besides becoming a member of other sport- ing and social elubs to South | SOUTH DAKOTA HIGHWAYMEN Gang Successtully Hol Occupa of Three Carriuges Near | Madison. 8.
