cordlngy the plan was adopted OF giving all par
ents who would make application for same the use
Of a good. Gervceahle square piano free for six
months with no obligation on their part other than
paying the mere cost of drayage. The number OF
parents who have already awaited themselves OF

WON THE FIRST CHOICE
SUCCESS OF A TREASURY DE-
PARTMENT CLERK.
William Mccormick to Secure Land
Grant in Rosebud Reservation
Must Go There.

William Mccormick, q clerk in the Treas
ury Department. had the good luck to draw
first choice In the Rosebud land opening In
South Dakota few days ago Samuel
Herrick Of this city represented Mr.. McCor-
mick in the drawing. Mr.. Herrick, who also
represented several other people In this sec
ton. succeeded in securing numbers for
William T. Mclean of Alexandria, Va and
Gustavus B. Groom of Fort Myer. Va
Until the war of 1898 Mr. Mccormick lived
on farm in Kansas. He then ran away
and enlisted in the Spanish American war
serving in a Nebraska regiment. In 1900 he
entered a business college and then went
into the offices of the Cudahy Packing Com
pany. He secured a position in the Treas
ury Department in 1902 through civil SER
vice examination. Mr. Herrck who was
the agent of Mr.. Mccormick will get one
third of the value of the land In case Mr.
Mccormick settles upon the property. as
he must do to procure title.
1t is stated at the land office that Mr. Nc
Cormick cannot dispose Of his property by
sale to any one else. All he could do would
be to relinquish his claim and 1t would then
pass to the next man in the drawing. AS
Mr. Mccormick will have the choice of 100
acres out of an immense and rich reserva-
ton of over 100000 acres it is probable that
he will leave his place here and go to South
Dakota and settle upon his claim so as to
obtain title.
In a short time Mr. Mccormick will re-
ceive certificate that will entitle him to
the first choice, which must be made by the
Sth of August
