took a shot at him. ,v
The burglar was discovered by William
Barghausen, a clerk employed In the store.
Barghadsen shortly "after S o'clock went
to the store for tho purpose of lighting
the lamp; which Is left burning through
the night An hour later when passing
the store with a companion he noticed tho
light was out and started to enter the
tors to investigate. As he opened the
front door he heard someone run to the
back of the store. Hastily cloning the front
door Barghausen stood 'watch while . his
ootnpanlon went to police headquarters.
Sergeant Whlttaker, armed with a pump
gun, guarded the rear door opening Into
the alloy next the city hall, while Cap
tain Maltby went to the front entrance.
In the meantime the burglar had retreated
to the cellar and attempted to get out by
the same window by which he had en

A Magratlleeat Parade.
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. From the first appear
anoe of the monster bandwagon pulled by
ten jet black horses, until the toot-toot

hind Is heard, the sight Is good for anyons
to look upon.

(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,

The desire is that the work ahall all be

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.

MINING IN THE BLACK HILLS
Bear Lodge District Attract Attention of
ProipectoTf.
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

Locating the Leads.
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. It Is
decidedly a mine making region, and men
of good Judgment are confident it will be
come a rich producer.
