In II. the SIOUX Reserve.

Gov. Charles Foster, chairman OF the
Sioux Commission, has reached Washing
ton and had consultation with Secretary
Noble about the work of the commission.
Gov. Foster says that the commission ~
terpreted the bill to the Indians to mean
that none of the former treaties for the
schooling for the Indians or furnishing
supplies were abroga ed by the present
bill. There were several inconsistencies
in the division of the reservations that
need to be remedied by act of congress.
Some of the Indians have been given
much more land than others and this has
caused a great deal of ill feeling. Tie
governor says it will be several weeks be-
fore the report Of tie commission is COM

Dakota's Far-Famed Jasper.

DdAOtd . Tar. II dInc0 casper.
There is scientific mystery, says cor
respondent, about this so-called jasper
found in Minnehaha county. Practically
it is all right. Its utility has been estab-
';shed but geographically there is no little
uncertainty about it. Those who know the
most are least positive in discussing its
character. Some of the scientis,ifc men
who have looked at it call it red quartz
lite. Prof. Winchell says it is the hardest
stone IN the United States that has been
used for building purposes. The grain is
very close. The only element to which it
succumbs is fire. 1t will stand a good de-
gree, but crumbles like limestone and
sandstone under too intense heat. In the
last day, when all the elements shall melt
with fervent heat, the Sioux Falls jasper
will have to go. In color the Jasper
ranges from salmon pink and peach blow
to purple. Quite recently black jasper has
been discovered. while there is one quarry
now turning out white jasper, which is
dazzling when polished.

The Crops in soutl, Dakota for 1889.
Since grasshopper days the crops have
never failed in the southern counties of
the state. They are as good this year as
ever. They do not need artificial lrriga-
ton. In very few counties scattered
here and there throughout the eastern
part OF the state the extreme drouth has
badly stunted the crops. In Miner county
the commissioners find few who will
need some aid before next winter is oyer
They are generally new corners who came
with little, and the sod crops which they
attempted to raise were cut off by the
drouth. But there will be very few of
such cases. all of which can be easily TAX
en- care of by their respective counties.
