thot soveral of tho saloonincn whose busi

protesting against tho demand made on
them say they cannot see the necessity of
being compelled to file new bonds. The
bonds they havo on flic In the office of tho
county auditor havo never been questioned,
although they were filed prior to the code
of 1897 going Into effect. They have a fear
that tho demand mudo by the county at

Thero Is much complaint on tho part of
tho atato commissioner of statistics on ac
count of the apparent unwillingness of tho
manufacturers nnd employers of tho stnto
to furnUh tho statistics called for under
tho law upon which the biennial report Is
based. Tho offlco Is now sending out n
third call for the Information and yet a
great many of the employers of the stnto
refuse to give tho Information. This Ib seri
ously handicapping tho ofllco In tho prep
aration of tho report. A great many of
the smaller employers seem to be afraid to
glvo the Information for fear It may ho
used wrongly, but this Is guarded against.
An attempt Is being made to have tho Iowa
statistics correspond exactly with tho na
tional statistics and to furnish Informa
tion nlong the samo lines, nnd tho national
bureau has had n man In Iowa at work
some time who Is working In harmony with
tho stato bureau. There will bo a demand
for a change In tho Iowa law at the next
session of tho legislature that will give
tho commissioner ample power to get the
Information needed with regard to labor and
commercial affairs.
Mystery nf a Taxpayer.
An unusual Incident occurred In Cedar

and rags applied at several hotels for a
night's lodging and being refused Anally
found a bed at tho city Jail. But tho next
morning the stranger went down town and
mado himself known to tho city assessor,
Ho gave the namo of M. Tanner and made
Inquiry about four town lots. Tho ns
scssor recalled that he had been regularly
for many years assessing four lots which
were In tho namo of M. Tanner, but who
tho owner was nobody over know. The
taxes had been paid. The tramp said ho
owned tho lots. They havo been In tho
name of M. Tanner for more than thirty
years. Ho wanted to sell them, but found
a Haw In the title, there being nn In
dcmnlty bond against tho lots filed in 18G2
which had never been canceled, so far
ns the records showed. Finding ho could
not sell his property the tramp dlsap
peared. To a citizen of the town he re
latcd his life, saying ho had been dlsap

had become a wanderer many years ago,

DEADWOOD, S. D., July 7. (Special.)
The entire Dlack Hills has been awakened
as never before as n result of the exhibits

were never known even to the Black Hills
pcoplo were brought prominently be-
foro them by Individual exhlbts. It hao

of tho southern and the northern hills.
There have been n good many old prospec

tended that no good things could bo found
In Pennington and Custer counties. The
ore sent up from fifty or moro mines and
prospects showed differently.
There have recently been found In Pen
nington county several large bodies of low
grade, freo-mllllug ore- which aro now at
tracting considerable attention. Since the
Homcstnke company solved tho problem of

At Hochford there Is a lcdgo of ore within
a few hundred feet of the town thnt Is over
fifty feet wide at the surface and nn aver
age value of the oro tnken In n trench
across tho ledgo gives n little over $.1 per
ton gold. The ledgo Is near water, rail
roads nnd plenty of timber. The belt runs
parallel with the old Stanby belt, which Is
considered one of the largest low grade
propositions In tho Hills. The Standby
mine Is nbout to Btart up again on ore
that averages about II per ton gold.

persons that wero trying to make their
exit.
"Don't bo In a hurry," said the elevator
boy.
"But I am In a hurry!" Impatiently ex
claimed ho of the squat figure. "I've been
waiting hero five mlnutci."
"You haven't been waiting Ave seconds,'
retorted the elevator boy. "If you had
been, you know, you could have gono up
In ono of tho other cars."
"That's all right," Fold the other, still
pushing and elbowing his way In. "Maybo
you know."
"I think I do."
"Why Is It," asked a man who had been
flattened up against tho side of tho eleva
tor, "that It's always somebody of his
build and ntmospherlc displacement that
acts tho pork In a plnco of this kind?"
Nobody seemed to know, Tho generaliza
tion may have been too sweeping. There
nro hogs of nil degrees of obesity and
tenuity.
Tho Imprisoned pntsengers succeeded
flnnlly In extricating themselves.
The man with the stomnch took posses
sion of tho corner farthest from the door.
In a few moments tho elevator started for
tho upward voyage with a full list of passengers.
"Second floor," shouted one of them.
It was the personnge with tho stomach.
With a series of convulsions he fought
his wny out and stepped off at second.
Ho was followed by a man who looked aa
if somo secret grief were preying upon his
mind.
"Comrade," snld tho latter, "I'd like to
speak a word with you."
Tho other turned nround.
"I had Intended to go to the eleventh
floor," resumed tho man of funeral aspect,
"but my business Is with you."
"What do you want?"
"It'll tako mo only nbout a mlnuto to
tell you. Several days ago, when I was sit
ting cnt-a-corncred In a crowded streot cor a
man gave me a medal. He said It was given
to him by a stranger because ho had mo
nopolized the narrow strip of shade at the
left edge of tho sidewalk on n hot day.
And now "
"What's all that got to do with me?
"Nothing, only that medal belongs to tho
Meanest Man In Chicago. I hnvo carried It
threo or four days without having any right
to It. It belongs to you, sir!"
With a dexterous motion ho slipped Into
tho waistcoat pocket of the squatty per
sonage n flat, round piece of galvanized
Iron with on inscription stnmpeu upon u
nnd bolted down the nearest stairway,
looking Immensely relieved.

"You moldy old rascal," ho said, "wnat

"I reckon." answered Tuffold Knutt,
feeling that thero was nothing to be gained
by lying, "I'd drink myself half to death,

"Well, hero's a dollar," rejoined Fellalro.
