And [Blsmarok Journal.] There are doubtless many of our readers who would read with interest a brief description of the "bad lands" of Dakota. They are situated principally along the Cheyenne, Grand, and Little Missouri Rivers. They are from two or three miles, to say twenty-five miles in width. In the long ago the valleys of these streams must have been filled with driftwood. Then followed a period of drift which buried the accumulation of wood under two or three hundred feet of sediment, sand, and gravel. The buried wood in time became coal, the veins being, in Borne instances, twenty odd feet in depth. Either from sponta neous combustion, or from electricity, fires were started in these veins, and they gradually pumed out, restoring in part the old water courses by means of water in these newly formed basins. Anyono familiar with the country can realize haw quickly the gullies thus formed would be widened so as to em brace the vast tract now covered by the "bad lands." Sully describes them as "resembling the bottom of Hell wtth tho fires put out." Looking upon them, here you see tho patches of slag, there great boulders, showing unmistakable evidence of great heat, and on every hand scoria, or burned clay, resembling broken brick. Where the fires were checked by the caving earth and the coal did not burn, mounds two or three hundred feet in height stand. Some of them contain several acres of level prairie on their top and have the same grasses and vegetation and are the same height as tho table lands on either side of the "bad lands." Some of the mounds are conical shape, and some re semble old castles or monasteries in ruins. At other points there are simply huge piles of clay, and at others great bars of gravel, Bcoria, or sand, without a par ticle of vegetation. At some points the craters formed by the burning coal beds have been filled with drift or wash, and you find from ten to forty acres of the richest patches of pasture lands. Stand ing upon the table lands you look down THE INDIAN CAPITAL. Where the Dakota Indian Seat of Govern ment Was Located. [Huron loader.] In company with W. H. H. Beadle, your correspondent visited the famous Indian council stone, a few miles south of Ashton, Dakota. The spot is where the various Indian tribes of Southern Dakota met annually or oftener and held their councils of war and peace, and THOUSANDS OF IDLE MECHANICS. The Principal Industries Reduce Their Working Forces by an Average of Nearly One-fourth, fNew York special to Chicago Newa.1' Twenty columns of liradatreeVa space is occupied this week with the results of a most important investigation into the gen eral condition of the leading manufactur ing industries of tho United States. The inquiries embrace twenty-two States— Maryland. Virginia, West Virginia, Ken tucky, Missouri, and all north thereof. There had been a general reduction of wages in industrial lines varying from 20 to 25 per cent., and, iu some instances, to 30 per cent, taking tho year through. In some lines the reductions are as low as 10 to 15 per -cent. Skilled workers in specialties are exempt or par tially exempt from this. The reduced forces at work range from 33 per cent, nt some points among iron workers to an average of 20 per cent, (against 1880) for the States reported, to 19 per cont. among gloss-workers 17 per cent, among tabooco operatives 16 per cent., woolen goods 14 per cent., boots nnd shoes and 12i per cent among cotton workers. The reduc tions referred to do not include the shrink Hge of clerical forceB in mercantile honses. Among industrial wage-earners the reduc tions In wages have been great where there have been no industrial organizations or weak ones. It mnBt not be overlooked that a considerable share of tho number re ported now out of work will soon lo busy again, stoppages of mills and factories in various lines being customary at this season. Tho record by States is as follows: 1 therefore may properly be termed the Indian capital of South Dakota. It is probable that the location was chosen on account of its acccssability, scenery, I and other natural advantages, and to the observing traveler it is evident that no better selection could have been made. Notwithstanding this was once the In dian capital of Dakota, our late Capital Commission refused to visit the historic spot, or even to consider its claims for tho honors they were about to confer. However, Spink County claims the hon or of the first capital of Dakota, and the spot which marked it will always remain a place of interest to the historian, tourist, and antiquarian. The famous council stone is a smooth, ovate shaped black boulder, about six inches in dia meter ono way, and eleven inches long, and stands in the center of the counell chamber. The council chamber con sists of stones placed around a circle about fifteen feet in diameter, the ground being scooped out so that the Indians could sit around the circle with their feet inclined toward the center. This chamber is capable of seating some twelve councilors, seven of whom would be a majority. As there were many dif ferent tribes in the valley at the time when these legislatures met, it is prob able that each tribo had but one repre sentative in the council. The scenes around this old council chamber are uncqualed in the James River Valley. Standing on the left bank of the river, where the river makes a curve to the southeast, upon a high bluff is the coun cil stone. For miles up and down the valley the view is unobstructed, and the many windings of the James River, Dakota Items. —Hay is $20 a ton at Deadwood. —Oats are worth $ 1.15 per 100 pounds at Pierre. —A Masonic lodge is to be established at Castalia. —The swine fatality has ran its course in Clay County. —Fifty Indian children attend school at Cheyenne Agency. —The fall term of the University at Vermillion has closed. —Yankton County produced 8,000,000 bushels of corn this year. —The price of lumber has dropped (1 1,000 feet at Flandreau. —Flaadreau's childron are enjoying a tough siege of the whooping cough. —Milllown offers Inducements to soms printer who 8 therft t-3 Hi a b?

As you con template tho scene, and take in its grandeur, you cannot fail to see how they have been formed. Perhaps some one familiar with the country, will take you to the burning buttes, where you can watch the process of "bad land" for mation. Within the writer's knowledge, those near Medora have burning for the past eleven years, aud during that time only a few hundred feet of the butte has disappeared. The butte bluff has been burned up, carried away ia dust by the wind, or washed away, leaving an additional section of the bad lands," presenting all the char acteristics of those formed ages ago. Where the mounds arc, the coal did not burn, and may now be mined. Tho "bad lands" arc full of rich plateaus and af ford the best shelter for stock. •c Or CITIES, S3 8? £§1 P- 227,352 185,627 79,415 69,213 66,338 64,617 47,587 41.825 96,930 22,434 21,724 19,799 65,650 40,000 10,400 4,500 24 21 13 7 6-10 8 C-10 8 8-10 10 3*10 9 4-10 16 37 89 22 8-10 26 26 62 25 36 19 2,000 4,600 4,860 3,870 6,000 S3! 4,600 4,600 4,296 9,960 3,600 2,000 18,021 17,448 16,110 14,047 6,6121 Total 023,7991 177,115 The employes in blast furnaces, rolling millB, steel works, forges and bloomaries, foundries, machine and locomotive works in the United States in 1880 numbered 421,000, and in tho States reported above 388,000. Returns indicate thatat leaBt 80, 000 of such operatives have been dispensed with, or 20 6-10 per cent.

Tho two distinguished Senators came up togeth er from New York on the 3 o'clock train, nnd were driven from the Central Depot direct to the Capitol. They had telegraph ed the Governor of their coming, and so the carriage took them direct to the private en trance of tho Governor's Chamber, where he I yras waiting to receive them. There was I nothing in the nature of a direct Cabinet conference in the informal talk between the three gentlemen, though the visit was the outcome of an expressed wish on the part of Gov. Cleveland to meet tho Southern Senntor. Mr. Garland was personally un known to the Governor, nnd BO the Senator from Maryland was pressed into service. Thero was no direct tender of a Cabinet portfolio to Senator Garland. Such views ns Gov. Cleveland had already formulated touching the new administration were al ready known to the Senator, and the visit was ono of pure courtesy—the visit of a representative Democratic Senator to his President-elect. That Mr. Garland can have the Attorney Generalship there is said to bo no doubt The probability is that Mr. Bayard will bo in the Cabinet, not as Secretary of Btato, but as Secretary of the Treasury. with the trees alon# Its banks, tho large Lnmnr Secretary of State, the post that fields of ripening grain, tho several towns north and south of the Weesing ton Hills to the westward all visible, it presents a picture beyond description. To the east a Bhort distance are the bict lodges, once the homes of the tribes of that name. It fras just opposite this council stone that General Beadle and his party of surveyors so narrowly es caped being massacred by the Indians in 18f3. Until the last Jew years the In dians have returned once a year and re moved the weeds and grass from around the council stone. Since .then it has been neglected, and in a few years more the Indian capital pf. Dakota will be only known in history. It may be that Cleveland has thought of to it was first supposed Senator Bayard would take, bnt Senator Lamar does not wiBh a Cabinet position. THE PRESIDENT-ELECT. His Fntnre Movement!*, .t. FAlbany apodal.] Gov. Cleveland will reBipn his office Jan. 8, and go to Buffalo on the 8th. On the 9th he will attend a charity ball at the Gen esee House, Buffalo, and then return to this city, where he will remain until he goes to Washington. Ho has already engaged rooms, and after the 9th of January will be ut home to all his fellow citizens. It is generally understood here, as elsewhere, that Senator Bayard may have a placo in the Cabinet, but the President-elect has not yet determined whom else he will invite to bis council board. He will probably take three members of tho Cabinet from tho East, two from the South, and two from the Northwest. Of the two from tie North west Indiana will furnish one and Illinois or Wisconsin the other. President-elect Cleveland is much inter ested in the probable result of the Illinois Senatorial contest, bnt while freely express ing the hope that a Democrat may be elected he carefully refuses to express a preference for either of the Democrats who havo been named as candidates for the office.

A prominent Now York pbyslclan was once asked what rheumatism wss. He repliod, "God only knows." Ho was undoubtedly right, because rheumatism socms to Bprlng from a different cause in every Individual case. If its origin is a mystery. Its effects are too well and too widely known, for there Is scarcely any season of tho year when some porsons are not more or less affected by it. In general, however, it prevails mostly among the aged, making their last days hard to bear. A prominent pbyslclan once remarked in our bearing, "If tho aged could escape the torturrB of rheumatism, their last years as a rulo would bo quiet, peaceful and painless." Apropos of the above, Mr. W. DeGens, of Slnarlly ella, la., sends us a communication which or we would not publish except at so much a line. But his experience has been so remarkable that we think wo aro JUBdflod In giving plooe to it. He says: "Dear Sir:—I am 78 years of ago. My life has been active. I am well-known la this town, and what I say I do not think will be doubted by any one who knows me. Up to a year or two ago, I was tho possessor of splen did health, and hoped I should wear out my life gradually and graoefully. Two years ago, however, I was ovcrcomo with that curso of old age, rheumatism. When It flrst prostrated mo the pain was so acuto I thought It was neuralgia, which medical authorities tell me Indicates a low state of tho system. I fancied that this attack was tho beginning of the end. I sent for a good doctor, who treated mo with electrical and other agencies, but I grew worse. Ho Anally said my case was a serious rhoumatio one. For six months I oould not use my limbs at all, and I was handlod by threo strong persons, llko a help less child. Then came a porlod of better feel ings, but re-action followed, and for six long months of pitiful suffering I was oonflncd to the bed. For over a year I groaned In aatiny. I tried all reputable lotions, liniments, piasters and preparations, in vain. At this stago, my friend Elder Ovcreamp oamo to Bee me, and upon his urgent recommendation I began to use warner's safe rheumatic curc, a few bottles of whtoh gave book to me the uso of my limbs. I am now sleeping without pain, eating without distress, and feel as spry as I did when I was 60 years of ago. I cordially recommend that preparation to all persons afflicted as I was, and especially to the thou sands of aged men and women whoso last days are embittered by this afillotlon." Mr. DoQon's letter is endorsed by Elder Overcamp, who says he Is a member of lila church, and his easo to him is surprising and marvelous. Mr. F. W. Hrlnkhod also endorses the statoment In similar terms. There is no doubt that this Is a true recital •f the case, and Mr. DcGcn's experience should be an encouragement to all others suffering as he did, to use tbo moans ho so successfully employed, for nothing better, if Indeed, as good, can be had in tho market. Draft Horses. The following ia a synopsis of a lengthy article which appeared in the_ Chicago Tribune, consisting of inter-" views of its reporters with the leading draft horse dealers of America. It was headed as follows: "Breeding of Draft Horses—Ono of the Important Industries of the Day— Experience of Dealers who Handle 40,000 Horses Annually—Relative Mer its of Percheron, Clydesdale, and En glish Horses—Opinions of all Leading Dealers in New York and Chicago— They are unanimous in preferring the French Breeds over all Others, as they are more enduring, best dispositioned, etand the pavements best,- and bring higher prices." The Tribunt reporters were instruct ed to procure opinions as to the rela tive merits of the different breeds of draft horses being raised in this coun try and sold in their markets. The ex perience of dealers who sell perhaps 40,000 horses annually directly to those" who buy them to wear put was thus ob tained. This information is of immense value to those engaged in breeding horses. Mr. H. Dablinan, of New York City, s.id: "I handle between 9,000 and 10,000 horses annually. Of the draft horses I handle, the greater pro portion—nearly all—are Norman-Per cherons. These horses are docile, in telligent, easily broken, steady in har ness, powerful, and compactly built. They are short in the back, deep in the body, and broad in the chest. They have the best feet of any horses in America. I do not want it understood that all Norman horses have these good qualities. I have seen some im ported that were as badly shaped horses as could be found. Long in the back, narrow-waisted. and not wortli their freight from France here. That class of horses is only imported by peo ple who buy them to sell and not to breed.1' In regard to the Clydesdale horses, Mr. Dalilman said: "I"will give you no criticism. I buy very few of them. I prefer to pass their stable and say nothing about them. From what I have said the Tribune readers, I think, will understand what breed of horses I would recommend them to raise." C. & II. Hayman, East 24th street, New York City, said: "We handle about 2,000 horses a year, principally draft horses, of all kinds—French, Clydesdale, English, and Belgian. Wo handle more of the French than any of tho others, because the people like them better and will give higher prices for them than for any other breed. They have more endurance and are the best dispositioned horses we have. They ma ture sooner and aro ready for the mar ket younger than the other breeds. The Clydesdales are not so well shaped nor are their feet so good. We advise the farmers of the West to breed to the finest and best-bred Percherons to be found." The above opinions were the expres sions of nil the other dealers inter viewed, with one or two exceptions. Tho object of all farmers who breed horses for use or for market, is to obtain ani mals that will mature the earliest and bring the most money. In order to ac-i eomplish this purpose 'with the greatest degree of certainty the use of the finest and best-bred Percheron Stallions is recommended and advised by nearly all the dealers. The iinest specimens are recorded with their pedigrees in full in the Percheron Stud Book of France. A Fish Story. Last week a boy named Forbes, liv ing in ltock Palls, was Ashing from the dam and hooked a catfish, lie was unable to pull it in, and, after strug gling awliilo, the fish turned and went down stream. The boy went over the 4am head lirst, holding to the pole, and started for the Mississippi Biver, the catfish in the lead. As they went past the paper mill some of the workmen saw the boy in the water and went to his rescue in a boat. He was still holding to the pole, and hooked io the lino was the catfish, which they cap tured. The boy weighed 85 pounds and the catflsli 85 pounds 0 ounces. Thus it is demonstrated that a catfish can get away with more than twice his weight of boy. Testml by Time. For Throat Diseases, Colds, and Coul us, BBOWK'S UKONCHIAX.
