north district is thus described:

'rlnlnencing at IL point most westerly where
f.'r Missouri river intarsects the second stand
- parallel, noftGerly along the river to the
fHlh standard parallel west on the parallel to
the 10Th deg of longitude thence south to the
north fork Of tie Cheyenne river; thence east
and south along the river to its mouth; thence
up and along the south fork of the Cheyenne
river to Il point whero the second standard par
nllol produced would intersect the river;
thence cast to the Missouri river to the place OF
beginning.
This last-named district does not in
cludea all tie coded lands in South Dakota.
There is yet n strip twelve miles wide be-
tween the fifth and seventh parallels that
is no included in the new district. Prob
ably congress will remedy this defect when
1t passes upon the new treaty this winter.
1t has been generally supposed that the
division OF he districts provided for a
land office both at Chamberlain and Mt
Pierre, and Dakotans in WashingtonIwere
of the opinion that the offices would be To-
Gated there, but the act distinctly says the
land Offices must be located in the districts
at some point designated by the president.
TIL act further states that the land Offices
can not be located or officers appointed
until u treaty with the Indians has been
ratified by congress. The clause apparent
ly is another argument on the side of con-
gressiona! action before the reservation
can be thrown open for settlement. An
other reason "hy the lands will not be
opened until next spring is a statement
from the surveying Office that surveys
could not be made this fall and could not,
in fact, be made until next summer, and
consequent y the settlers would not gain
anything by gong into the new country
this fall.

Two Land Districts for the Reservation.

By an act of congress approved March
2, 1888, there were made two land districts
of the Sioux reservation recently coded by
the Indians. 1t may not be generally
known that this act will go into effect as
soon as the president prorlaims the ceded
lands open for settlement, but such is the
case. There will then be two land offices
established and officers appointed. The
act which provides for the districts in the
Son reservation created the Devils lake
land district in North Dakota. The Iiv4,-
ing line between the two reservation dis
tricts is the second standard parallel,
which is the Moth line of Buffalo, Jerauld,
Sanborn, Miner, Lake and Moody coun-
ties in South Dakota. The south district
is described as follows:
Commencing at Il point where the Missouri
river crosses the second standard parallel,
thenoe up and along the river to the most
westerly point where the river crosses the same
parallel; thence west on the parallel to the
south fork of the Cheyenne river thence south
west along the south fork to the Goth deg. of
longitude west; thence to tho south boundary.
OF Dakota thence east along t'e boundary to
the Missouri thence up the river to the place
uf 10 shining.

gard to the case of Minnie Domny which
was in last Saturday Evenings NEWS.
It stated that Mr.. Manning recon,

Mrs. Baker was very irritable with

Such statements are false, and if your

him there would have been no need of
writing this. told him that the girl was
brought to Mrs. B. by DIR. Finn, and
when she grew up and wished to make
enquiries about herself, Mrs. Baker asked
Mr.. Manning to search the records at the
almshouse in quest Of information.
And the following Is all that he could
obtain:-She WAS brought Dnere by Mr..
Parslow, undertaken, of Hoboken, and adj
