OEADWOOD'S COMING FETE RECALLS IT UlorloiiN Day When tho Iron Horse Snorted Slmultnncoiialy itKIi the (iuritle nnd Slsile of llot tlcd Effervescence. "I see Dcadwood Is preparing to cclebrato a quarter of a century of oxlstcnco," said an Omaha man ono day during tho weok. "Well, thooo Deadwoodltes certainly know how to celebrate, but I'll wager that thoy will have a hard tlmo to outdo ono jollifica tion I remember as having occurred during my time In tho Illack Hills. "To b'gln with, you must understand that Illack Hills socioty shows sharp cleavages along certain lines. One of these Is the Muck Hills Plonoors' nssocintiou. No ono who entered tho country later than 1876 can beloug to this society. Then comes tho list of those who 'went In through tho (jumbo,' which means ahead of tho railroad. I was ono of these. You may be used to social distinctions, but you never will bo nblo to appreciate tho lofty eminence from which tho Illack Hills pioneer looks down on thoso who enrao aftor him. or under stand tho satisfaction with which the second class discusses tho good old days beforo tho railroad camo. Ilullroud Cmmes It. "It was tho coming ot tho railroad that brought about tho celebration I am talking of. Tho end of tho track had lingered at Valontlne, then at Chadron, then nt Iluffalo Oap. Tho road was graded to Itapld City. Along In the winter of 1885-S6 the fireworks began. Dcadwood dubbed Hapld City n gypsum camp (tho former appellation had been hay camp) and announced that the delay In building tho road was duo to the fact that .the Klkhorn people did not care to start away from Iluffalq Oap until they had some placo to go. There was nothing nt Ilapld City to warrant a railroad In building thcro, and ns Dcadwood was tho only business point In tho Dlack Hills, it was clear thatUhat point was tho objectlvo of tho company. Rapid City got back nt Deadwood by calling attention to the fact that a solid wall of granlto some thousands of feet In height and other thousands ot feet In thickness precluded access to tho camp for nny but nn aortal line. Deadwood did no business that couldn't and wouldn't bo done at Itapld City. This sort of thing was bandied back and forth day after day bctweon the news papers and entored not a little Into tho social and business llfo ot tho communi ties. As tho winter woro away and spring camo stealing on tho affair developed ruoro and more acerbity, and other towns of tho Hills joined In, all against ilapld, until Anally tho announcement that C. I Troat of Chicago had boon given the contract to lay tho Iron from Buffalo Oap to Hapld City brought on tbo explosion. It would taks a week to tell you of nil the things that were said and dono about that time, HriiinrUuIily ilapld Work. "Well, Treat started on Juno 3 to put down ths forty-fivo miles of track and promised tbo Rapid City people they might celebrato tho arrival of tho first train on July i. That sounded protty strong, for It meant putting down a nitlo nnd a half of rails each day, and not allowing anything for bad luck. As a matter of fact, Treat lost two days because of rain and one on account of a bridge not being comploted, nnd then reached Itapld City on the night of July 2, It was certainly a great feat of tracklaylng. Sovcral times two miles of rails wcro laid in a day. Forty-five miles of track laid In twenty-olght days would bo looked upon ns good work even now, and that was fifteen years ago. "In tho mcautlmo Dlack Hills ceased to simmer. It was boiling, and tho ebullition was awful. Itapld City arranged for n colebratlon and tho rival towns were knocking It as hard as they could.

Kelley In tho Pioneer. oniiricy .-uoouy in tno Sturgls Ilecord, Sam Shanklnnd in tho Custer Chronlclo and Iko Crow In tho Buffalo Oap Courier nover let up for a moment, while Dan and Mark Scott, through the Itapld City Republican, and Dick HuchoB nnd Joo Ooasncn In thn Journal kept up their end of the fight splen- uiuiy. ji was n heauty nnd no mistake.

"In tho meantime tho nrnnln nf llnntd City had boon preparing for tho greatest rourm ot jmy cciecrauon over hem in tho Black Hills. Who-e-n. hut It was hnt. Aftor a deluge In tho middle of June, there was no raoro rnin ror many weary weoks. a hot wind blew from tho south for days, Hapld river, that ordinarily limpid stream, had been turned from Its natural courso to run through "Mickey's ditch," and its Clear Wntera wnrn anlllnil with nvprnl sorts of things thnt are better Imagined wuin iioscriDca, in ract, tho water carrel aftor Frank or Hughey Mc.Mahon had filled It from his cart, offered a Involv col. lection of flotsam and Jetsam to the man wiu camo nrst with Ills tlncup for a drink. All kinds of bulldltigs wero going up all over town, from the big threo-atory Hotel Harnoy nd Sweeney block, to tho opera houso Kelly I,0 Beau started nnd never finished. The town was ulive with people, mechanics, miners,' fighters, tenderfect, gamblers everybody you could expect to meet In a booming mining camp and some you wouldn't core to meet anywhere, These all served to make tho celebration all the moro of n suoctes, .Votlilnu to Drink lint llone. "Maybo the lack of drinking water had something to do with it, but I know none of the barrooms were ever closed, nnd I nover heard any of tho drink mixers kick because bo wasn't getting enough exercise. The first of July, which was Friday, was hot, the second was hotter, the third sizzled, and the Fourth fairly blazed. On Sunday after noon tho stages camo down from Dead wood loaded with officials and prominent citizens. Sol Star, J. K. P. Miller, John Ilclden, "Mac the Saddler," Seth Bullock, Porter Warnor, Paul Howman, Colonel Parker, Senator Moody, Edwin Vancise. "Governor" Frank, In fact, n list as long as Deudwood's directory. Some woro linen dustors, and on the back of one which bid John Deldcn's generous form was kept a tally I forget whether it was of drinks or bottloa. What I do remember Is that that dusty, thirsty crowd was taken down to tho Park hotel, whero Mayor Jack Simmons had prepared things and for some tlmo thereafter tho popping of corks and tho gurglo of sparkling wlno mingled with lively conversation and the celebra tion was on. Hnllrond Slnken liaoil, "On tho Fourth tho first passenger train to enter the Black Hills proper steamed proudly up to' tho box car that had been sot apart as a depot, and received a wel come from several thousand peoplo who wero well prepared to do the right thing. Sorao of tho tenderfeot, who didn't know what they were running Into, novor got oft tho train at all, but returned cast that night. On the train wero General Manager Fitch, General J. B. . Hawley, attorney; General Passenger Agent Buchanan, Gen eral Frolght Agent Morohousc, Superin tendent W. C. Halsey of tho Black Hills division and Messrs. Mooro and Luko ot tho Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley official corps. They wero taken to break fast and then to tho speakers' stand. Hero the oratory flowed unrestrained for hours. Colonel John Hereford King, Judge Bcntley B. Benedict, James W. Fowlor, W. H. Mitchell and others spoko for Hapld City. Parker, Vancise, Moody nnd Martin spoke for Deadwood; Colonel Buchanan and Gen eral Hawley spoke for the railroad, nnd tho rest of the world was forgotten. The procession moved and that was about all It did, for It consisted largely of "bull" teams, which could not but retard every thing else. In It was every featuro ot a parade from the volunteer II ro department to n band of Indians. I'll warrant that somo of tho eastern people got a better notion of western llfo that day than they over bad beforo. "There was a baso ball gamo In tho after noon between a soldier team from Fort Meade and tho remnants ot tho 'Eighty Stamps' under the leadership of Heel Over peck, and what the soldiers did to the Stampers was enough. It was mighty bard to seo that hundred dollar purse go to the fort, but It went. Fireworks A-l'Icn ty. "Flroworks In tho evening you hot. But tho crowning event was the ball. Tom Sweeney's new building was far from being complete, not even the floors being in. But tho lumber was piled to tho side, a temporary floor put down and there ou tho rough pine was held ono of the mer riest dancing parties that over camo off. Tho fact that tbo wntcr was unfit to drink added much to tho Joy of the occnslou. It was daylight on the morning of tho 5tb before the festivity ovon slackened. "Two things I remember particularly. Not a fight occurred during tho time, and both tho local dally newspapers suspended their Issues until after tho celebration had ended, Deadwood may have a big Fourth of July, but I'll bet that oven John Bolden will admit that Hapld City's still stands as a record."

PRIMARY PURPOSE OF PLEAS IN BAR With Two of the First Three Cniica Out of the Way, Five Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ol Bonds Are Avoided, James Callahan wants to get out of Jail on ball. The primary purpose of his at torneys In pressing the pleas In bar In tho robbery and larceny cases Is to secure a reduction ot 15,500 In the amount ot bonds required from Callahan, At the tlmo Callahan was arrested the county attorney filed three Informations against him, one charging robbery, the second grand larceny and the third fatso Imprisonment. Ho was held to the dis trict court In all three of these cases and bonds wero fixed at 13,500 In the robbery case, $:U00 In tho larceny caso and (1,500 In tho false Imprisonment case. Later ou tho county attorney filed a complaint charging Callahan, jointly wltb Pat Crowo and Richard Hoe, with the crime of robbery, and it was on this complaint that he was tried and acquitted. Tho three cases In which ho was first Informed against still stand and pleas la bar have been filed to In all ot them. Only two of the pleas, however, will bo pressed for bearing. Cullnhnu'a Lawyer Talk. "It Is our purpose to dlsposo ot the rob bery and larceny cases," sold Callahan's chief counsel, "so that tbo total amount of bonds will bo cut down by 15,500. Wo understand that tho county attorney will Insist on holding Callahan In the false Im prisonment case, and so wo will press our pleas In bar In the other two cases only. We havo no doubt that tho court will have to dismiss tho charges of robbery and lar ceny, for our client has undoubtedly boon put lu Jeopardy onco for the same offenso aliened In both nf thoso cases. "With tho robbery and larceny cases out ot tho way tho only bonds that Callahan will havo to give to secure his release from Jail will bo ono of $1,500 In tho false Im prisonment caso and ono of 1,500 in tho perjury caso recently lodged against him. Tho total will amount to only 53,000, as against $$,500 as at present "In the perjury cbbo we will submit to a preliminary examination In the county court nnd I don't bellevo the prosecution can make nut a strong enough case to hold our clleut to tho higher court." The pleas In bar In tho robbery and larceny cases wero to havo been heard yesterday morning, but ns Judgo Baker was out of tho city the hearing went over to this week.
