Duluth, Mimi. Aug. l5.-The opening
of lands in the Fond du Lac reservation
this morning was without special Incl
dent. During the night there was a
fear that an attempt would be made to
stampede the line, and there was hardly
q moment of sleep for any of the per
sons at the doors of the landoffce, but
the report was unfounded.
When the clock pointed to the hour
of 9, E. G. Osborne of Schroeder, Mimi,
was admitted to the office as the first
and for his father on 1872 acres in sec
ton II, 50-1S. This land is on the St.
Louis river between the towns of Bre-
vator and Brookston.
Osborne is a telegraph operator. Grip
pied by the loss of leg, and has been
out of work since the strike on the
Great Northern. His vigil has continued
from Monday of last week, but he was
apparently not at all worn by his ex-
perience.
The fifth man up, Mat Tasnen of
Wakefield, Mich, was the first to find
that someone had filed ahead Of him
on the piece of land he wanted. He
promptly filed on another piece of which
Z, he had the minutes.
It took most of the morning for the
persons in line to get their filings in,
and many conflicting entries will have
TO be Strengthened out.
The faces of all of the persons in
line showed more or less nervousness
until they entered the office, but as
they emerged practically every one
showed relief and pleasure. Entries
filed today are not en- ough, however, to
give the persons the land without con-
test. They may have trouble with act
ual settlers.
The first man who filed at the mo-
ment of 9 o'clock, when the lands were
subject to entry, may get ahead of the
settler, whose rights could not attach
until the same hour, but after that
moment any persons who filed may have
to face contest for home by someone
who will claim to have been on the
land at 'clock.
There are decisions which assert that
while a person going on the land before
the hour Of opening was a tresspasser,
yet when that moment arrived he at
once acquired rights as settler.

After many years of study and prae.

cred the cure for constipation. 1t il
called Chase's Constipation Tablet.
~ do not mean,' said the physician
to several of his colleagues announcing
his success, ~ do not mean just an
other pill that breeds the pill habit.
My remedy is a cure. By gently forcing
all the digestive organs to perform their
functions it restores them all to health
and strength. ~
1.-THE MORE, THE Less
"The more you take the less you need
until you need none-for you are cured.
My effort all along was to avoid the evil
of the ordinary remedy which pampers
organs already weak and so makes the
patient slave to the pill. Remember
Nature expects every organ to do its
duty
Physicians have long recognized the
fact that constipation is at the bottom
of gnearly every disease. 1t saps all
energy, and makes life burden; it
opens the doors to all evil germs and
makes the body too weak to resist
them.
