Movement on Foot to Divide the
Great Sioux Reservation.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1G.-It was decided
today by the house committee on Indian
affairs to report a bill in place of others
on the subject, providing for the division
of the great Sioux reservation Of Dakota
into separate reservations, and the relin-
punishment of the Indian title to the re-
mainder. The practical effect of the
measure, if it becomes a law. will be to
open to settlement IL, 600, 900 of the g.
600, 600 acres comprising the great Sioux
reservation in Dakota. There are two
general reservations created by the bill,
one in the north and the other in the
south of the present reservation. The
Grow Creek and Winncbago reservation
remains us it is, with the exception of a
few townships which are excluded.
There is also a small reservation created
opposite Fort Thompson, ON the lower
Missouri river which is set apart for the
occupancy of the lower Brule Indians if
they care to take it. The principal por-
ton of the present reservation which is
thrown open to. settlement lies between
the White and Cheyenne rivers.

Iield the Secret OF Success.
There is but little question that in
raising small crops farmers lose tine
larger part of the profits that might
be secured. The raising of crop of
wheat that only yields ten bushels, can
hardly be made to pay expenses, if in
deed it does not prove Il loss. while if
the yield is increased to twenty bushels
per acre q fair profit may be realized.
This holds good with nearly all kinds
of farm products. To this may be
added the fact that small yields almost
invariably imply low quality. and this
in turn generally means low prices that
certain number of bushels are neccs.

ABOUT CHEWiNo-ouM.
The origin and Growth of What Is Now .
Great Industry.


In the school days of the present
generation Of business men the article
of chewing gum on sale was chiefly
vile compound of wax and resinous
substance. Now il is almost solely
composed of the sap of species of
rubber tree manufactured in various
attractive forms, and standing so high
| in popular favor that it has been recon-
mcndcd by prominent physicians as an
aid to digestion and cure of dyspepsia.
| Its sale. it is said, has increased in this
country to the extent that where 10
cents worth of chewing gum was sold
twenty years ago, $40 worth is sold to-
day.
The manufacture of the gum is an
American industry. The last English
wax gum manufactured Liverpool
confcctioner who sold n species of
chewablc parafline sufficiently got
| in trouble in the courts on account of
its ingredients and went entirely out of
the business. The article from which
the present popular varieties of gum
nre manufactured is the sap of the Chi
co Japorti tree, grown in Mexico, the
first of which was brought to this city
very shortly after tho close of the war.
| The discoverer cndcavorcd for three
or four years to find a market for the
article in ordinary commercial lines. but
was entirely unsuccessful, its peculiar
properties rendering il. from one rea-
son OI another inuln,iSsa blc in auV
branch of rubber manufacture ut a
profitable price. 1t was then that the
idea of utilizing it for chewing was
first originated. Now there are about
/, GOO 600 pounds per year of the raw
gum imported from Mexico, and the
original authors of the manufacture
claim to use threc-quarters of that
quantity in their big factory in Brook
| lyn, the balance being divided among
some twenty-five or thirty smaller con.
Germs throughout the country.
The gum is collected in Mexico in
much the same fashion as butter and
egg are through the country here. II
is brought in in chunks and bought by
the pound, representing n trade OF
nearly $780, 600 per year to the native
collectors. AS the gum trees become
depleted, new tracts of trees producing
the same quality of gum have to be
discovered. and for this purpose sal.

INKS OF ALL COLORS.
How Writing Fluids Are Made in American
Laboratories.

Ink is variously composed, accord
ing to the purposes to which it is to
be applied. Common writing ink is
the pertannate of iron, mixed with u
little gallate, held in suspension in
water by means of gum or some other
adhcring substance. The gum also
preserves the ink from being too fluid
and also serves to protect the vegeta-
bic matter from decomposition.
Blue ink has of late years been much
in demand. The coloring matter is
said to be sulphate of indigo and tinct-
urc of iron. OF, according to another
recipe, Prussian blue dissolved in wa
ten. -, means of oxalic acid. Red ink
is usually made by boiling in the pro-
portion of two ounces of Brazil wood
in u pint of water for about quarter
of an hour, and adding little gum
and water. This ink is not in demand
now, carmine having superseded it,;
this color is attained by solution of
carmine and ammonia, also adding
gum. The great merit of our COM
mon writing ink is in the freedom
with which it flows from the pen,
allowing of rapid writing, and
the manner in which it bites
into the paper, so as not to be removed
by sponging. The great defect is in
the want of durability. Such inks par
take of the nature of dyes. The writ
ing ink of the ancients on the con-
trary, is characterized by great perma-
nency; its basis was finely divided
charcoal mixed with some mucilagi-
nous or adhesive fluid. India ink is of
this character; it is formed of lamp
black and animal glue, with the addi-
ton of perfumes. not necessary how
ever, to its use rs an ink. and is made
up into cakes. 1t is used in China with
q brush, both for writing and painting
upon Chinese paper, and it is used in
this country for making drawings in
| black and white, the different depths
of shade beng produced by varying
the dilution with water.
Writing ink" said a prominent
manufacturer, sis now made in large
quantities in New York, and whereas
in the past we used to import largely,
