 The amount of the appropriation for irrigation during the year was $1 800 for the Moquis and for the Pi- mas $9O0
 Regarding tile Gila Bend reserva- tion the report says:
 -'Tghis reservation contains thirty five sections of land, and was set apart by executive order of December 12, 1882, for the Papago and other In- dians then settled thereon, and for such other Indians as the secretary of the interior might see fit to place there. At that time some ten fami- hes-forty or fifty people-hved on the reservation. Various propositions looking to the removal of these fami- lies elsewhere and the restoration of the reservation to the public domain have been considered and submitted to congress, but without result.
 ''In 1892 the Pima agent suggested that many of the wandering Papagoes  madic ways and make this reserva- tion their home if they could be as sured that it would not be taken from them.
 "The president, on December 6, 1894, granted authority fer allo.ing on this reservation ten acras of land each to the Papago Indians entitled thereto. Allotments were made by Special Agent Claude N. Bonnet, who submitted, July Is, 1896, aAsch ed ule of 679 aIlotmenl-s, all of wh ch, as he informally states, comprise ir- rigable land.
 ''Jume 29, 1896, this office submitted to the department the proposition of Henry E. Kemp, vice president and general manager of the East River side Canal company, to sell the gov ernment in trust for the al,ottes S on the Gila Bend reservation, flor $10 per acre, water right deeds for alf miners inch per acre, each water right to convey perpetual right to the grantee thereof to purchase water from said company at the Late of $1.25 per acre per annum. The quantity of land which would be covered iby this canal was estimated at some G. 500 acres.
 1.-The office recommended making a contract for Ithe purchase of water rights for 500 acres du ing the last fiscal year, the intention being to purchase rights covering additional areas during succeeding years until all the land should be irrigated. No action thereon by the depar 5ment has been communicated 10 this office. have recently learned that there are one or two other canal companies who might furnish water for a per tion of the allotted lands. These lands without water are wholly worth less, but will be valuable when irr. gated. Unless some mems of plac- ing water on them can be devised I see no use in approving the alot- ments or trying to induce the Indians to settle there. If water can be sup piled the lands will furnish homss for nearly 700 Indians now roaming the deserts of Arizona, and they will be able to support themselves comsor-- ably, the government being required only to purchase the water rights and pay the maintenance charge for one or two years.
 At an early date I shall ins ruct the new agent in charge of the Pima agency to make a full investigatiCu of this subject, and will submit the result to the dspartm ment' e. P. H.

A HOPELESS TASK.
The Proposition to Danish One of the
Joys of Childhood.

The Proposition to Danish One of the
Joys of Childhood.
Danish Santa Claus?
Take out of childhood its
sweetest mystery and best loved
myth?
What creed could be so cruel,
what creedsman so destitute of
the milk of human kindness?
For any austere gentleman
concerned in such iconoclastic
bit of straight-laced Puritanism
it is invoked that memory will
work her mystic wand, and
Backward. turn backward, Old Time,
in its flight,
And make him child again, for one
Christmas night.
That will cure him of all desire
for dealing death to the delights
the yuletide brings to the souls
of little children.
The coming of Santa Claus
doesn't interfere with any relig-
ious ,observances that may be
deemed desirable. He is to ev-
cry child the embodiment of all
that is lovable. He is Father
Bountiful, who always rememb-
ers the nice and forgets the very,
very naughty. He is the Patron
Sai1;t of innocent pleasure to
prattling innocence, and when
his annual visits cease childhood
will have lost one of it's chiefest
charms and manhood's memory
one of its richest, tenderest treas
ures.
Take naught from the life of
the little ones that brightens its
fleeing passage, the serious
time of earnest effort and stern
actuality comes soon enough.

Justice Ewing Tuesday charged
by Band Master Jakel with
abusive language. The jury in
the case found Mr.. Cohn guilty
and assessed his fine at SIS. A
counter charge was then preferred
against Prof. JakeI which has
not as yet been heard. The facts
in the case as developed by the
evidence were that the defendant
and the prosecuting witness had
been tout of tune' with each
other for some time. Prof. Jakel
testified to a belief that Prof.
Coin had slandered him, and
Prof. Cohn affirmed that Prof.
Jakel had endeavored to iniure
his business by preventing his
securing musical engagements.
Each agreed that their aversion
for each other was of a mutual
order. The offending language
complained of took place in front
of Reichardt C Seelhorst's hard
ware establishment late Monday
evening. Prof. Cohn requested
an interview with Prof. Jakel
and upon the latter declining.

LAMPKIN-BASSETT.
A Caldwell Groom and a Brenham Bride
Will Wed Today.

Today "Wednesday at eleven
O'Clock the ceremony which will
unite in marriage Mr.. Homer
Lampkin, of Caldwell, and Miss
Marguerite Bassett, only daugh-
ter of Mrs. Sallie Bassett, will be
solemnized at the residence of
the bride on South Market street.
There will be no ostentatious dec
oratiye display, but the air of
sentiment and sweetness that al
ways surrounds a home wedding
will be abundantly in evidence
on this happy occasion. Rev.
George Lloyd, pastor of st. Pc
ter's church, will officiate, en-
ploying the beautiful ring cere-
mony of the Episcopal ritual in
solemnizing the marital rites
which forever seal the plighted
faith of hearts with vows of
eternal constancy, love, honor
and obedience. The groom is
one of the popular and promis-
ing young men of Caldwell,
whose success in securing one of
Brenham's fairest daughters for
his bride is a criterion of the
good luck that attends his efforts
in other directions, and who is
esteemed in his community as
highly as any young man who
lives there.
The bride, as mentioned above,
is the only daughter of Mrs.
Sallie Bassett, born and reared
in Brennan, a young lady of
many attractive personal traits
and accomplishments, with all
the charms of face, mind and
heart, that make up the compo-
sition called perfection in young
womanhood. She is member
of the K. Y. 2. Club, feminine
association of twenty-f five mem
bers, and two years standing, |
and is the second member whose
wedding has occurred since the
club began its official existence.
The groom accompanied by
his sister and a party of Cald-
well young people reached Bren-
ham last evening on the belated
Santa Fe, having embarked from
Caldwell on the local and
changed cars at Somerville, the
passenger overtaking them there.
The wedding party will return
% Caldwell on the noon Santa
Fe to attend the Jenkins Dele
mater nuptials there tonight.
