Indians are p

Supt. j. X. Sechler, in charge OF ia rm-
ing operations at the Forest City Indian
agency, while in Huron a few days ago,
stated that there are now almost 5000
Indians at the agency; they are well fix
ed for winter and are contented and
happy. Generally speaking their health
is remarkably good, but few deaths hav-
ing occurred in recent months. They have
plenty to eat, wear and burn, and
while hunting game is less generally in
dulged in than during previous winters,
not a few OF the young men do much of
it and .euioy the sport. The schools are
fairly well attended and pupils make
good progress. During the present win
ter there is distributed from 100000 to
200,0 600 pounds OF beef each month, and
although this may seem a very liberal
supply, it is usually exhausted before an
other ration day arrives. Mr.. Sechler
also says that the acreage devoted to
farming by the Indians the coming sea-
son will greatly exceed that Of previous
years, while stock raising is fast becom-
ing an extensive enterprise among them.

Gently and then killed himself after hav-
ing, as he supposed, killed Miss Kate
Stefani, also.
Babcock paid his addresses to Miss Ste
fani, but her parents forbade her ever
seeing him, and she complied. Yester-
day he told Miss Stefani that his mother
was sick and wanted her. Miss Hemp
hill said she should go also. When near
Burbank, Babcock shot Miss Hemphill
through the head, causing almost in
slant death. He drove some distance
before firing It Miss St-Fani. He then
shot her through the breast, though he
aimed at her heart. She ieigned death
though the wound was very slight. She
remained fully conscious. Babcock say
ing, III make sure your Dead" fired q
secoud shot, the shot striking her shout
der blade from the back and glancing out
again, doing little damage.
He then shot himself through the
heart.
He was a worthless fellow but never
thought vicious. Both girls were under
20 years OF age.

The States Monoy.

As supplemental to the newspaper talk
this summer over the failure OF the Far
mers and Merchants bank at Planking-
ton, in which Joe Freudenfeld, treasurer
o. the state board Of regents, had on de-
posist about 10000 of the states
money, and the frantic efforts OF Freud
enfield toward making the amount good
to the state, it is interesting to note the
admissions OF President Shannon OF the
board OF regents, who says that there
will be little likelihood of the state ever
recovering over 80 per cent OF the amount
lost and that of this amount the money
will have to be procured by process OF
law against Freudenield and his bonds
men.

Farmers Institutes.

A special telegram from Aberdeen to
the Minneapolis Daily Journal of recent
date is as follows:
The state Legislature in 1891 author
lied the board of trustees OF the state
Agricultural College to provide for hold
ing farmers Institutes during the winter
vacation of that institution in various
parts OF the state. Accordingly the
trustees have directed the faculty OF the
college to provide programs and range
for a series OF Institutes during the COM
ing December, January and February.
As no funds have been appropriated by
the Legislature, and as there are none at
the disposal of the TRUSTEES for this pur-
pose, all expenses must be met by the
communities where institutes are held.
These expenses will cover the rent of
rooms where the meetings are to be held,
with lighting and heating. the printing
OF notices and programs, and the hotel
expenses OF those members OF the college
faculty whose services are desired. These
men will c~hargenotkine for their services,
and there will be no expense for their rail-
road fares. The necessary expenses of
an institute will be very small. 1t il be-
lieved that many communities will avail
themselves OF this opportunity during
the coming winter.
1t is thought best to recommend that
Institutes be held in each case two DAYS
and two evenings, the day program COW
ering papers, addresses and discussions
upon special agricultural subjects, and
the evenings being devoted to lectures and
addresses OF more general interest to all
people. Local speakers and writer's will
be expected to assist in the exercises of
the institute.
The following members of the college
faculty will hold themselves in readiness
as they may be invited, and will speak
upon the subjects subjoined to their
names:
