Is,rty Thousand Acres of Land In Minne-
sofa Subject to Entry.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-Over 10000
acres of land are thrown open to- settle
mont in Renville, Chippewa, Swift. Big
StcRe and Stevens counties, MINI. Fol-
lowing the decision of the interior de-
partment disallowing the claim of the
Manitoba to indemnity lands on it's
main line for losses on the st. Vincent
extension, the secretary of the interior
has decided the conflicting claims of the
Manitoba and the Hastings and Dakota
railroads for about 10000 acres of land
in the western portion of Minnesota.
Both companies viii be dissatisfied, be-
cause there are about two-thirds Of
these lands thrown open for settlement.
There were two classes of lands
those in the granted limits Of
the Hastings and Dakota and west Of
range 3S, and those within the indem-
nifty limits Of both grants. The former
lands are adjudged to the Hastings and
Dakota because the line of the Manitoba
was not definitely located west Of range
3S until after the location of the Hast
ings and Dakota route. The other lands
within the indemnity limits of both
roads are judged to
Belong to Neither of These Roads
and are open for settlement. This con-
elusion is reached because, in the appli-
cation made by both companies to select
the indemnity lands, they did not desig-
nate actual losses in the granted limits,
a procedure which the department de-
termined was necessary. There are al
ready some settlers on these lands whose
titles have been hanging fire for many
years, as both companies claim them.
There will probably be . rush for the
lands which are within the indemnity
limits of both companies, as these are
thrown open for settlement. The
amount supposed to belong to the HAST
ings and Dakota under this decision can
not be estimated, but it is thought to be
about two-thirds Of the 10000 acres.

catching Terrapin.

In the shoal waters along the coast
south Of Cape Henlopea terrapin are
caught in various ways. Dredges dragged
along in the wake of sailing vessel pick
them up Nets stretched across some
narrow arm OF river or bay entangle the
feet Of any stray terrapin in their meshes,
but these require the constant attendance
of the fisherman to save the catch from
drowning In the winter, In the deeper
water, the terrapin rise from their muddy
quarters on mild. sunny days and crawl
along the bottom. They are then taken
by tongs. their whereabouts being often
betrayed by bubbles.
Turtles viii rise at any noise, and
usually the fisherman only claps his
hands, though each hunter has his own
way of attracting the terrapin. One
hunter whom saw uttered q queer gut
tural noise that seemed to rise from his
boots.
Whatever the noise, all turtles within
hearing whether terrapin or snapper
will put their heads above water. Both
are welcome and are quickly sold to the
marketmen. The snapper slowly appears
and disappears, leaving scarcely q ripple,

ANIMALS sometimes are affected with

If we persist in feeding musty hay to

If we would all resist the temptation
