more than month";" Mr.. Kern takes

PIPEsToNE, Mimi, June 23.-A large
party of Yankton Sioux Indians, under
the leadership of Chiefs Matowicakte
and PtesanwicaSa, are now camped at
the historic Pipest0ne quarries on the
Indian reservation, in this city. They
are clearing all the trespassers from the
reservation, and getting all in readiness
for the commencement of work on the
Indian Industrial school, which is to be
built near the quarries. An order has
been issued by the tribe forbidding
trespass of any kind on the land in the
future. This order also prohibits the
Flandrau Indians from visiting the res
eryation for the purpose of procuring
pipestone for their own use. This, it is
thought. will create quite rumpus, as
the Flandrau Indians have been allowed
to come here for ages and dig stone.
Charles II. Bennett has been appointed
Indian agent here; and, in the spring,
several families of red men will move
here from Yankton to guard the quar-
rieS, which are so sacred to them.
