From the reports -received about the Great Wallace Show it seems that tlx thousands of people who see its street ! display are well repaid for the effort The street parade of a circus Is the formal Introduction of the show Itself and Wal lace's Introduction Is always welcomed, as his pageant Is an unusually creditable one. In many respects superior to others. In order that the cleanliness enJ bril liancy of the Wallace Circus parade may be appreciated the circus lover should If possible secure a good vantage print from which ' te view it when it pa,-s over the principal streets of this city this morn ing. From a good view point the s-ee-tator can see the para'de as a whole, notice Its harmonious arrangement or Its numer , ous sections unite In the long chain of spectacular units.

CLEAR SAILING FOR VAN WAGENEN Revabllcam County Conventions Held Over the State Indicate the Parly Is More Uarmonloae Thaa VsaaL . (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, June 11. (Special.) Prac tically all the necessary preparations for the democratic state convention of this week have been made here. The conven tion will be held In the Auditorium and the local committee has provided muslo and. decorations, though neither will be elaborate. J. H. "Quick of Bloux City will be the temporary chairman, and It Is ex pected he will deliver an address that will be conservative and point the way to silence on the coinage question. Thus far it would appear Impossible that any scheme can be put up that will defeat Judge A. Van Wagenen of Sioux CJty for governor, as be is the only avowed candidate. There has been some effort to Induce Colonel C. H. Mackey of Slgourney, an old-time demo crat to be a candidate for governor, and the local democrats have tried to Induce ex-Congressman Walt Butler of this city to be a candidate. The matter of selection of the candidates is likely to be a very simple matter, unless the free silver men are strong enough to have easy sailing, when they may decide upon taking all the offices. Present Indications are that they will not be able to control the convention at alL Conventions held the past few days have shown that the gold democrats have great strength and that they will have most of the really strong men In the convention. Tha entire east half of the state vfill be pretty solid for reorganising the party and against reaffirmation of the Kansas. City platform. It Is lyiown that Judge Van Wazenen. who la a candidate for governor, will not make the race If free silver Is made prominent in the party creed this year. Judge Martin J. Wade, the Second district congressman, who is the only demo crat holding any Important elective office In the state, will be the leader of those who Insist on keeping still about the Kansas City platform. He will ask for substanti ally the platform of last year. It Is not known whether Governor Boles will be present It Is believed that a strong effort will be made to have the convention In dorse the candidacy of Hearst for president and this largely In the hope that he can in this way be induced to start a dsmocratlo newspaper In Dos Moines. Republican Harmoay Prevails. A significant county convention held by Iowa republicans yesterday was In Chero kee county, where a strong Indorsement of Governor Cummins waa passed by the county convention. This was in a county that two years ago was largely against the governor. Senator Monari, wno nas ai wavs been accounted an anti-Cummins man. heads the delegation to the state con vention. In Johnson county a similar bar mony convention was hela, and another In Centervllle. for Appanoose county. In fact, a number of republican county conventions were held the past week and it, was found that In roost cases there la very little dlf Jence between Iowa republicans. , In only a few of the counties oi ine w there been any factional conflict this year, Work os the State Capitol. The State Capitol commission has selected C. L. Llnley of Chicago to be consulting engineer and supervising director of the work of Improvement on the state capitoi. The contracts will be signed up on Monday. Tho main work will be done by L. H. Kurta of this city at a cost of $71,000, which will include the entire heating and venti lating arrangement for the state capitoi, the new elevators and tne electric equip ment The commission did not let all the contracts, but meets again on the 29th Inst to open additional bids and let contracts. The desire is that the work ahall all be done at once. Will Ask a RehearlatT. The citj of Des Moines la to ask the Iowa supreme court for a rehearing In the case of the city against Robertson, involving tha right of the city to make repeated con demnations to secure right to open a street. The supreme court decided that where the city had abandoned condemnation proceed ings three or four times, only to take them up, again, and each time to get a lower award, it was evidence that the city was not acting In good faith. The city council did just what has been done many times before in similar cases, and it the decision stands It will mean that all bodies having to do with condemnation cases will have to be careful In the future. Boy Mnrderer lax Debate. The regular report of Wesley Elklns to the governor, received today, notes the close of the school year at Cornell college.

She took the children to St Louis and placed them In the Methodist home. Judge Fisher directed that the children be kept In the home five years, or until the further order if the court .

Don't be afraid to scatter the sunshine of laughter shout you; it often helps re vive somebody's faith In the sweetness of things. The cynical man Is amusing at times, but. like nitro glycerine, apt to be neara from most Inopportunely. It Is only the dyspeptic who uses his stomach as an ante-chamber to his heart If you would keep a man'a love refrain from being too nice to him The man who is too busy to go shopping with his wife will spend any amount of time coaxing his new stenographer to go out to dinner with him. Few people seem to realise that rlcea are but latch keys to Limbo. Lota of misery could be avoided by re garding romance as a cocoon and selecting the variety desired. The man who has never written a com promising letter has the qualifications for an ambassador or a felon. The man who treats his Inferiors with In solence has not the breeding to get grace fully through many erdeala. Do not trust your happiness to a prac tical joker; they are sure to spoil the finest effects In Ufa An artistic temperament la always Inter esting, but a bank account is more practi cal. Tou must not expect the author of a cook book to try all the recipes or a doctor to take his own medicine. Man has created the girl bachelor by decades of selfishness. It is not always safe to judge of a man's Income by the cost of his boutonnlere. It Is impossible not to believe In trans migration after hearing the bray of donkey and the conversation some men think suited for women.

GREAT RUSH TO LOCATE CLAIMS Range Is Richly Mineralised and Fall of Timber Magnlflcent Vlerr Into Foar States From Warrea's Peak. DEADWOOD, S. D., June 21. (Special.) The Bear Lodge rango of mountains, In Crook county, Wyoming, across the South Dakota line, has been attracting the at tention of prospectors a:d mining men this spring and there is considerable ex citement over the region. Quite a number have gone into the country and there has been much locating of claims, until prac tically everything within a radius of three or four miles of Warren's park has been staked. Warren's peak is the highest point In tha Bear Lodge, having an elevation of J.750 feet, according to the United States geological survey. The mountain Is about seven miles from Sundance, the county seat of Crook county, Wyoming, and that town Is being made the source of supply by the various companies and Individuals working In the district Sundance Is reached by a fifty-mile railroad ride and a twenty-flve-mlle stage ride from Deadwood via Bellefiurche, S. D., and Aladdin, Wyo., the latter being the end of the railroad. No work has been performed In the min eral belt so far save what Is necessary to locate claims and put them on record. Consequently there are no openings In the region over ten feet deep, except a few holes sjink several years ago In a copper bearing region lying northerly from War ren's peak. Is Fall of Mineral, t Geologically the region presents many striking features. Nearly all the eruptive rocks are found, Including porphry and all the members of the porphry family dlorlte, trachyte, phonollte, felslte, andeslte, sye nite, with an occasional heavy intrusion of' granite. The region Is essentially of erupt ive origin and Is mineralized to a remarka ble degree. The process of eruption Is evi dently extended over a long period of time, one upheaval occurring after another wltn great persistence, the older dykes being rent by numerous others and nearly an of them overflowing, forming large masses of their material that cover the aides of the hills. Gold values are found in all the eruptive rocks and numerous small seams of rich ore are found on the contacts between the different materials and assay tests give re turns running from a trace of gold up to several hundred dollars. Traces of fluorine are seen In much of the vein matter and some of the samples most vividly stained with the element give good assays. In the Cripple Creek region of Colorado some of the richest ores are fluorine stained and the presence of the element in the ores of the Bear lodge range Is regarded as a favorable Indication, considering the char acter of the ore, although the manner, In which It allies Itself with gold Is peculiar and It remains to be determined just Low closely It is associated with the precious metal In the Warren's peak country. It Is an active chemical and a violent solvent of gold, practice demonstrating that It some times retains the gold and at other times la the means of accomplishing Its dissemin ation. Rasp la Heavily Timbered. The Bear Lodge range Is to all Intents and purposes an outlier of tbe main Black Hills range, from which It is separated by a prairie region several miles across. The range Is from thirty to thirty-five miles long, northerly and southerly, extending from Sundance to the Bellefourche river, and is from five to ten miles wide. Except for Warren's peak and neighboring peaks, covering an area of four . or five square miles. It is heavily timbered. The high peaks are bare of timber, but are covered with a luxuriant growth of buffalo grass and wild flowers, the latter growing In profusion and of great variety at this season of the year, the ground being matted with them for acres in extent and present ing a gorgeous spectacle. The summit of Warren's peak affords a magnificent view of the surrounding coun try, into four states. Immediately to the north are seen the Devil's Tower, situated near the Bellefourche river, a giant obelisk of trachyte, having a columnar structure and rising perpendicularly to a height of 680 feet from its base, Its top flatted and having an area of an acre or more. Four or five miles from the Devil's Tower are the Little Missouri buttes, higher than the tower and of the same structural forma tion, but lacking the experience of erosion through which the tower has passed. They are covered with loose earth and contain scanty vegetation, rendering their summits accessible, while the tower has only been scaled with rope ladders attached to a se ries of pegs driven Into tha crevice be tween the columns. The tower and buttes are on a national reservation six mllea long and four miles wide, having been withdrawn from the publio domain. Beyond the Devil's Tower and tbe Little Missouri buttes may be seen the prairie country of northern Wyoming and Mon tana to the north. To the west the Big Horn mountains are seen, their crests enow-covered the year around. To the southeast may be seen the northerly part of the Black Hills' main range and the smoke of the mills at Lead and Deadwood. To the south are visible Sundance moun tains and Inyan Kara mountain, apart from the mother range, sentinel figures Just as pure and Send for L ISA- 4 JOHN GUNO PPFWfw rn, L Crosse.Wls. rfft Vcntworlh Military Academy V ff OoT.mro.nt .upervtoton D.I equipment.

Gold, copper, mnnganese and other metals and precious elements have been known to exist In the Pear Lodge range for many years. Float has been found that assayed up in the thousands of dclars, and pros pectors have tried to locate the lands, without definite success. It Is now the be lief that the rich ore In commercial quan tities lies at considerable depth, and devel opment Is what la necessary to disclose It. Capital Is therefore what the territory de mands, and mining men of experience are confident that money Invested In extensive exploration will yield a handsome return. There are two assayers In the range, Percy Train of Montana and George W. Bock of Hill City, 8. D., both equipped with good working Outfits, and they are Indus triously Informliig themselves as to the value and characteristics of the ore, and with the other prospectors, endeavoring to determine where It lies and how It Is best to be reached. Emll Ruder of Lead City haa spent slant years In the range. He owns over 100 claims, on all of which he has done some work. He claims to have discovered low grade gold ore In paying quantities and Is preparing to put In a cyanide plant He has experimented on the ore with a chlor Inatlon process and appears to be satisfied with the results, although he worked tn the crudest kind of way. ome More Prospectors. Others who have located In the rang are E. C. Martin and G. T, Bock, repre senting Hill City parties C. A. Spencer, a well known mining roan from Roohford, 8. D., and several companies composed of Deadwood men. all of whom own large tracts of mining ground.' The Bear Lodge is today the only virgin mining territory in the middle west. It la an Ideal country for mining and pros pecting. There has been little wash and no shifting except that incident to the early upheavals. Prospectors have learned that a piece of float marks the outcrop ef a lead, and It requires only a few feet of exploration to locate It. Numerous small ore , seams have been found In this way. Where these seams have been sunk upon they have Invariably grown wider with depth, notwithstanding that none haa been opened to a depth greater than what Is necessary to a legal discovery hole.
