Mr.. Logan was over at Helena yesterday
to secure one of his charges who was ac-

lot of fellows. They are very thrifty n
we'll advanced in the ways of the white
man. They have 10000 head Of cattle II
grow a, great deal of grain. They live
i'm good houses and have a reservation
school with about 200 Indian children as
pupils. Some of them have been to the
Carlisle, Pa, school, but prefer to be
near their own people.
II have been instructed by the govern
ment to pick out a site for a new school
which will accommodate a larger num-
F; Der of pupils. The building will cost
| about $40, 900 and when completed the old
