RAPID CITY, S. D., May 13.-(Special)-
At last the appropriation for the Rapid City
Indian school has been allowed. Charles
Marshall of this city received yesterday
telegram from Senator Pettigrew, at Wash
ington, stating that the appropriation had
been made. Mr. Marshall is also in re-
ceipt of a letter from J. S. Kitterman of
Ida Grove, Ia, stating that work would be
commenced on the school within two weeks,
Mr.. Kittcrman has the contract for the cree
ton of both the Rapid City school and that

latter school last Monday. The location for
the building in this city is two and one-half
miles west of town on tract Of land con
sisting Of 100 acres. The building will be
built on a high point of land, overlooking
the city and surrounding country. The
original contract price for the erection OF the
building was s257O0. There being but S25,-
900 appropriation at this time. the building
has been waiting for the additional appro-
priation. The $4,000 appropriation just al

Is a fine stone building built eight years ago
at the cost of $4,000 by Philadelphia
woman. The purpose of the building was
for an Indian school under the Episcopal
denomination. Bishop Hare handled the
money and constructed the building after his
own mind. At that time the government
withdrew it's support for denominational
institutions. and as a result the building has
never been occupied by an Indian. 1t is now
for sale. 1t is in a desirable location and
fitted up in the most modern style. 1t was
suggested some time ago that the govern
ment buy the building and use it for the
government Indian school instead of building
a new structure, but no action was ever
taken in the matter

BOOM IN RANGE CATTLE BUSINESS
Everybody who Can IL Purchasing
Young stock! .,


CHAMBERLAIN S. D., May 13.-(Special)
Thus far this spring in the neghborhood
of 3 900 head of cattle, mostly young animals
to replenish herds which were diminished
principally by shipments last fall, have been
transferred here to the west bank Of the
Missouri river by the Chamberlain Pontoon
Bridge company. The stock industry of the
region known as the ceded Sioux lands, lying
between here and the Black Hills, has made
wonderful strides during previous years, but
never has it increased so rapidly as at pres
ent. The good prices offered in the markets
for beef cattle have caused a decided boom
in the cattle raising business, and everyone
who can do so is purchasing young cattle and
sending or taking them to the choice range
west of the Missouri river. Tens of thousands
of head of young cattle are also being
taken to the ranges surrounding the Black
Hills. Prairie schooneis, which during the
past few years have headed eastward, are
now seen daily en- route toward the west.
Many of the travellers were formerly resi-
dents Of South Dakota, but left the state
during the last few years for the south,
where they were led to believe, they could
better their condition. They are now re-
turning to their old places. satisfied that the
future OF South Dakota is assured.

Ho,IEorATHs LEAVE FOR HOME
DR.. bertha Lille on Dress Reform and
DIR. EO0tc on Anncndicitis.


The homeopathic PHYSICIANS concluded
their twenty-eighth annual meeting here yes
terday forenoon and after spending a delight
deaf as the guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Rothert
returned to their homes, impressed with the
belief that their session had been a very
profitable one.
At the business meeting held in the fore
noon the election of officers and the selection
OF a place to hold the next annual meeting

OF Sioux City was chosen president, A. NJ
Linn of Des Moines, first vice-president; e. C.
Walters of Cedar Rapids, second vice-presi-
dent; p. J. Montgomery of Council Bluffs
secretary, and George Royal of Des Moines

and Drs. Linn and Royal were chosen as the
legislative committee.

holding the next meeting in May, 1898.
The papers read during the day were con-
fined to the bureau of surgery A paper by
Dr. NJ Bertha Lille of Marion, Ia, on dress
reform was particularly interesting Miss
Lille Is pronounced and advanced advo-
cate OF emancipation of women from the
thraldom OF fashionable dressing, and pro-
nounced herself to be strongly in favor of
the Jenness Miller garments for women of
all ages and conditions. In some of her
passages depicting the dangers and tortures
that women are subjected to by the mandates
OF fashion her accommodation was particu-
larly strong but not more so than the
healthful pleasure OF living and moving ex-
perienced by women who clothed themselves
In the common sense garments advocated by
Mrs. Miller and other dress reformers. Miss
Lille was not however a shining example
OF her own theories, for she was attired in
very becoming gown OF decidedly fashionable
cut, with curying lines about the waist and
Dust suggesting the presence and assistance
OF crinoline and stays. Her theories, how
ever, were very pretty and were strongly
presented, and received the unqualified ap-
proval of the masculine physicians present.
Another strong and noteworthy paper was
read by DR.. Il. A. Foote OF Omaha upon the
so-called fashionable disease, appendicitis
Dr. Foote showed that the disease was by no
means confined to the mind of the patient,
put was one OF the most formidable realities
the medical profession had to contend with

gerry In all well defined cases and particu-
larly sought to point out the danger of delay

eyitable termination of the disease when II

in Some Sections.


HURON. s. D., May 13.-(Special)- TO
days bulletin from the local government;
bureau makes this reference to crops in
South Dakota:
The temperature during the week averaged
considerably above the normal with some
very warm days for the time in the season.
The amount of precipitation averaged con-
sidorahly below the normal and what oc-
curreo was almost in light and widely
scattered showers. although some localities
received good showers. A number of locali-
ii received no rain.
The. was an abundance of sunshine and
in some sections considerable brisk winds.
The almost continuous fair weather, the
warm days and brisk winds have tended
to dry out the top soil considerably and to
such extent in a rumbar of localities though
not generally, that rain Is needed to start
the late Sown grain. The early sown grain
Is lourishing generally.
Wheat. oats and barley seeding is prac-
tically completed, except IN localities in
the northern counties. Flowing for corn is
being pushed and considerable has already
been planted.
Potato planting is quite general.
Gardens are doing well, except that in
localities they need rain some.
