II. Pugh of Company L, Fifty-first Iowa vol
unteers, who died of fever In tho far-off.
Philippines last July while serving with his
company, were most Impressive and tho largo
auditorium of tho First Congregational
church was crowded to tho doors. Every
pew was occupied and many wero compelled
to listen to tho services from tho outer cor
ridors and steps. Tho largo gathering of
friends of tho dead soldier and others was a
fitting trlbuto of tho affection felt for the
young hero who at bis country's call volun
teered his services nnd gave up his llfo
while In the performanco of theso duties, be
ing stricken down by dltoaso v,hllo thousands
of miles away from homo and loving par
ents.
Tho funeral services were carried out with
full military honors. Pugh's comrades tn
arms wero thero In forca to pay their last
trlbuto and tho veterans of tho civil war
gathered llkcwUo to bear testimony of tho
affection and respect felt by them for the
dead soldier boy. Private Paul Pugh was
but a boy when he enlisted, having but re
cently left tho High school of this city, and
tho two companies of tho cadets under their
rospcctlvo captains were jirescnt to pay
their trlbuto to their former comrade.
Tha church Itself was beautifully draped
with tho national colors, while tho casket as
It reposed near tho chancol was completely
covered with tho many bandsomo floral off'
crlngs. Conspicuous among tho many beau
tiful floral tributes was tho one significant
of tho Eighth nrmy corps, tho gift of tho
dead xoldler boy's former comrades In arms,
Other set pieces wero offerings from tho
Men's club of tho church, of which tho boy
had been n member, nnd tho Christian En
doavor society. Tho cadets wero represented
also by a magnificent set piece.
Tho pastor, ltov. J. W. Wilson, In his ad
dress paid a most touching trlbuto to tho
doad soldier and his remarks left hardly a
dry eyo In tho audience. Tho music was
furnished by Mrs. Sherman, Miss Worley
Ned Mitchell and Howard F. Strykcr.

At tho closo of tho services the remains
wero taken to Walnut Hill cemetery, where

Army of tho Republic, headed by tho post
flag, while behind them marched tho two
companies of the High school cadets. Tho
military procession was followed by num
orouB carriages, tho cortcgo being one of
tho longest ever seen In this city.

Tho Mansfield Tin 'Mining and Milling
company has just been organized at 11111
fllv l.v tiV rv tMitionn nn nltnrnnv nf thnf
place. For several mohlllsi'paet he has been
collecting together a croup of the old Har
ney Peak Tin company's claims with a vlow
of organizing a comprfny'lft work the many
tin lodes. Tho Mansfield tiffmpany will com-
menco Immediately to'' tkWelop the ground.
For n dozen or moro rears tho Dlack Hills,
especially tho southern portion, has been
suffering a reaction caused by tho great
Harney Peak tin boom, when tho Harney
Peak Tin Mining and Milling company at
tempted to initio the tin ores of tho Harney
Peak range. Between 12,000,000 and $3,000,
000 dollars wero spent In tho enterprise nnd
It nt last fell flat, greatly to the detriment
of Iho southern Dlack Hills,
All thoso who have becomo familiar with
tho way the Harney Peak Tin company op
erated In tho Hills havo reason to bellcvo
that thero would not havo been a failure
had thero been proper management of the
company's affairs, Tho main cause for tho
falluro wns tho neglect to sort tho tin ore.
Everything went through tho mill and tlio
result was disastrous. Tho present receiver
of tho company states that had the company
used tho tin oro only In making tho first
run that In all probability tho Harney Peak
Tin company would bo another Homestako
today. Thero wero flvo reports on tho tin
properties which wero mado by tho best tin
cxpcrtB of tho united States and Europe,
All flvo reports wero favorable to tho tin
district,
Thero Is another tin district west of this
city fifteen miles In tho Bear Gulch mining
district. Thero la a district about six miles
square, which Is cut by tin lodes of consid
erable size. Somo of the lodes will assay
u per cent tin
Thero Is no doubt In tho minds of the lead
ing mining men that tin will becomo ono of
tho commercial products of tho niack Hills
n a very short time. Like copper, tin has
been known to xlst for years, but all efforts

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., March 18. (Spo
clal.) Tho Chamberlain Pontoon Bridge
company has Just completed a number o
Important Improvements In Chamberlain's
transportation facilities. The 'bridge has
been thoroughly overhauled, many of tho
old boats bolng replaced with new ones, and
three lnrgo stono piers hnve been con
structed In tho river on tho west sldo of tho
Island, to which tho brldgo will hereafter
bo securely anchored. A solid stone crib
wharf has also been constructed at tho
Chamberlain landing, and tho approach made
much more convenient. The company also
has two largo boats, ono of which is pro
pelled by steam and the othor by gasoline,
which are used as ferries when the river Is
too high to maintain the bridge, and both
of theso boats havo been thoroughly over
hauled during tho paBt two months by a
force of Dubuquo shipbuilders. Tho steamer
Capltola Butt has been given an entirely
new hull and Its carrying capacity In
creased to about acventy-flvo tons. Both
boats aro now ready for tho water and will
bo launched as soon as tho heavy Ico Is out
of tho way probably within tho next three
or four days. It Is doubtful It thero Is now
another river town In tho stato bo well
favored with transportation facilities as

out to range on the prairie nnd In stalk

stormy weather. But this bunch thnt has
Just been driven off by rustlers wero horses
that do not stray away tar frcm home,
somo of them being work horses that were !
taken up occasionally when an extra team
was needed. Tho rest wero colts nnd young
horses. Ten head of tho twenty-two ba
longcd to Gall Jones nnd tho others to
various persons. Tho horses In question,
after their disappearance, werei tracked to
tho Missouri river and out onto the lea
and tho trait showed clearly that they had
been driven by some ono riding n horso
with allocs on. Six of the horses were found
drowned In tho river nbout ten or fifteen
rods from tho shore. They had evidently
tried to turn back and got off tho main
track and passed through the rotten lcc.
Thero being llttlo current nt this place they
wero not carried under the Ice. Tho parties
who took them wero shiewd enough to
wait until tho Ico In tho river was about
to break up and then rush tho horses
across and by tho time their owners, not
suspecting they wero stolen, spent a couple
of days looking nbout tho neighborhood
