DIFFICULT TO GET WELL.
Lansford Drillers Strike an Unusually
Hard Substance,

Langford, S. D., u n 10.-Another eff
fort to secure ar artesian we'll at this
place has practically resulted in a fail
ure. and there is every indication that
Langford will continue to be a dry"
town SO far as securing a good artesian
flow is concerned. After reaching q
depth of $50 feet the contractor. who is
at work on an arteSian we'll which was
designed to furnish the town with wa
ter for domestic and fire protection
purposes, had the bad luck to strike a
rock. which after a week of steady
drilling refused to give way to the drill.
Then it was decided to explode a guam
titv of dynamite at the bottom of the
hole in the hope of removing the OBJ
struction. This was done, and now it is
difficult to mak progress in the work
of drilling on account of the shattered
pieces of rock catching on the drill. On
July ! Langford will be a dry town in
more ways than one, for on that date
the only saloon now doing business in
town will close its doors. Thus the old
saying that misfortunes never come
singly is again illustrated. Without a
saloon and without artesian water to
drink many of the residents will Indeed
be in a bad way.

SIOUX INDIANS

They Are Efficient Both as
Workmen and as Con-

GET GRADING CONTRACTS
Several Sections of Road Making or
the New Milwaukee Extension in
South Dakota Are Contracted
for by Red Men.

Sioux Falls, S. D., June THAT the
Sioux warrior has become an efficient
workman, as well as contractor. is
shown by instances in connection with
the extension of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul railroad from Chamber
lain to the Black Hills.
a crew Of twenty-five Sioux Indians,
with teams and scrapers. are at work
on that part Of the railroad grade
which extends through a large island
on the Missouri river opposite the
town of Chamberlain. Thee Indians
are from the Crow Greek agency, and
at the suggestion of Major II. d.
Chamberlain, United States Indian
agent at Crow Creek, the contractors
We're induced to give them a trial
The result is proving very satisfac-
tory. The Indians ave contracted for
several sections of the work of grading,
and under the immediate supervision
of John Van Patter, an agency en-
ploye, they are making good progress
with their contract.
Vt another point on the railroad eX-
tension, an Indian named Louis Loud
en- has a contract for grading. He has
the utmoSt confidence Of his brethren,
as is attested by the fact that, instead
Of employing white graders, he secured
the services of a number of Sioux war
riors from Grow Creek and Lower
Brul agencies.
The old days When the Sioux war
riors were accustomed to recline in the
shade while their wives split the fire
wood. cared for the ponies and per-
formed all the other labor Of the house
hold. appear to be gone forever. Hun
dreds of the Sioux Indians have gone
to work on the reservations and other
points to prove that they can earn a
living for themselves and families.
