THE BLACK HILLS*
RETURN OF ANOTHER FAUTT BRINGING
GLOWING BEPOBTB OF THE MIN-
kbal REsouacaa.
Cheyenne, W. T., March 13.—Four
more of the Black Hills’ miners, named
Warren, McDonald, Williams and Thom
as, arrived at Fort Laramie toMlay, they
having walked from the stockade, eight
miles from Harney’s Peak, in seven days.
They bring fine specimens of gold-dust
with them. Warreu has some that he
washed out of two pans of dirt lifted
just below the surface, aud among which
there were grass-roots. He says they only
dug down to the bed of the rook. In one
place the water was so plentiful that part of
the time they worked waist deep in it.
lie thinks that with pumps and hydraulic
machinery $100 per day to eauh man
conld be made. He also brings with him
specimens of silver whioh old minere
state, will yield $2,000 to the ton, and say
the purest they ever aaw. He will
bring here these specimens of silver ore to
be assayed. He has also with him fine
specimens of piumbsgo, lead, and oopper,
and says there is more gypsnrn in the
Black Hills than ten railroads oould hsnl
away in fifty years. He claims also that
there are tin mines there. The party
leaves for Cheyenne to-morrow, their ob
ject being to get provisions, machinery,
and tools, and recrait their narober
by as many as possible, after whioh they
will return from here, the route from this
place being, they say, the only praotioal
one, and much nearor than from Sioux
City,with the additional ad van tags of good
roads. They report no trouble in croft
ing the streams, or in finding good water
and camping ground every night. They
say tbo distance can be walked easily in
five days. The railroads have reduced
the faro one-third from Chicago to
Choyenne to parties going to the Blaok
Hill. Many strangers are now here who,
it is supposed, are bound for the new El
Dorado, notwithstanding tba orders from
the Government prohibiting parties from
going. Persons just arrived from (he
!udiun Agency state that tho Indians are
anxious to sell to the Government their
right to the Black Hills country, but do
not propose to give it np without being
paid for it.
Willie whf was Hissed.
Willie Lloyd is a drummer boy in the
Salt Lako Theatro orchestra, only eighteen
year old. He met with a rather startling
adventure the other day, into which be
was led by his youth, inexperience and
ignorance of the mysteries of mines. He
had nn interest in a hole in Emigration
canyon, and one Sanday went out to the
mino aloue. Arriving, nobody was visible
tbero. There was a shaft which he knew
to be about sixty feet deep, over whioh
there was a windless and down whioh dan
gled a rope. He thought be would slide
down and take a look. But he got to the
end of his rope before he reaohed the
bottom of the shaft, and he oould not eee
the depth of the pit below him either.
There he hung, unable to olimb up and
afraid to let go. He called, but no answer
came from the darkness. Becoming ut
terly exhausted be let go his hold and
dropped. His fall proved to be about
twenty-five feet, whioh jarred him a good
deal, but did not seriously hurt. And
there Willio was in the deep reoess of an
unfruitful mine. The workmen had aban
doned it and gone digging somewhero else
and he knew nothing of the move. It was
Sunday, ns said. No aid came on Monday
or Tuesday, and the situation of the drum
oier boy became disagreeable—even pre
carious. He was damp and hungry and
weak, and very loneRoms. The orchestra

TRAINS STOPPED—RAILROAD BRIDGES WASHED
AWAY—HEAVY DAMAGE—LOSS $500,000.
PrrTSTON, Pa., March 18.—The loss of
four bridges and the damnge to property
by the ioe flood has reached more than
half a million dollars. The ice is again
gorged at Ransom, three miles above this
place, to the heighth of twenty feet, and
extending np the river for about five
miles.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad track is
entirely covered with ice, six feet io
height in the narrows two miles north of
here. They have a gang of workmen
digging through, and trying to dear the
track. •
It is impossible to say how soon thay
can run through. No traiaa Ukve been
able to reach here yet, either way.
A great many mines in this locality
have stopped work on account of having
no route left by which to skip their coal.
Tho greatest anxiety ex ; sts here in re
gard to the weather. Should it become
warm enough to move the gorge, it will
oause even mere destruction than Tues
day's flood.

ble damage to the Pennsylvania Railroud

and Willie did not come. At length some
of bis fellow musioians made a pilgrimage
to tbe mine. It was Wednesday evening,
and they arrived just in lime. They heard
a very weak voice calling from the bottom
of the pit, and finally aucoeeded in pull
ing out Willie Lloyd, with enough life
still in him for a nest egg. He was liftad
out of a very deep distress, and has no in
terest in that abandoned mine in Emi
gration canyon now. Willie Lloyd, only
eighteen years old, but ripe in experience,
is again drumming away for dear life in
the orchestra of the Salt Lake Theatre,
but he has no fancy for the pit any more.

How Cold 14 Was In Wisconsin,
From the Milwaukee Tlmea.]
Gentlemen from northern Wisconsin
unanimously agree that the weather dur
ing the mon’hs of January and February
was quite cold. Baid a Marathon county
mao at the Newhall last evening: “The
mercury froze so that you cut it with a
knife; but that wasn’t much. In my store-
room I bavo a Urge stove in whioh I burn
two-foot nMplo wood. One of the mild
est mornings when the fire was burning
fiercely, I tried to put iu a stick of wood
which was too long to go clear into the
stove ; and so I loft the door open and the
eud of tbe stick protrudiug. In a few
moments the stick was burning nicely at
the end in the stove, it got thawod out
and tho snp commsncod running and
actually froze into a solid ioido at the end
which was out of the stove.” Tho geutle-
man corroborated his statement by saying
that the incident occurred on one of the
mildost mornings of tho season.

pear to bo much orthodox religion lying

with abundant success. A good missionary

MOUTH CAROLINA.
TUB GOVERNOR VETOES A BILL—THE NE-
OROLS MAD.
Cmablbbton, Maroh 18.—Great excite
ment was caused in the Legislature at
Oslambia yesterday, by a veto from Gov
ernor Chamberlain of the bill to liquidate
tbe floating debt^of the State. The Gov
ernor says tho response by tho Legislature
of South Carolina to his effort to enforce
e policy of rigid economy has not met bis
expectations. The passage of the legis
lative appropriation and an unlimited
amount of questionable claims, and the
failure to pass the bill to reduce salaries,
have rendered it impossible for him to
consent to add one dollar to the weight
of taxation which now oppresses the peo
ple, and he would regard the approval of
this sot as au sot of unpardonable injuatioe
to all those whose interest he is sworn
to proteot. The aggregate taxation ia
now without precedent and without justh
fioatioQ. A vast majority of the claims
embraced in the bills are nnpaid. Legis
lative certificates have been made to cover
vast frauds. These claims, as a whole,
do not, in his opinion, constitute a valid
obligation of tbe State, and the commis
sion, as a whole, he is reluctantly com
pelled to say, does not command his con
fidence in the work assigned them, nor
the confidence of the public. For these
reasons he withholds his approval of the
bill.
A long and angry debate followed the
reading of the message. Several promi
nent oolored Representatives denounced
the Governor bitterly. No vote was
reaohed, but tbe indications are that tbe
Conservative*, aided by the Roform Re
publicans, will be able to sustain the veto,
