Mrs. c. E. Gregory OF this city is
about to make final proof to 100 acres OF
land at Davis Butte, taken under the
act of Congress- of 1892. No residence
upon the land is required, but a cash
payment of SIPS per acre must be made
at the time Of making proof, and it mu st
be shown that the land is more valuable
for stone quarrying than for agricultural
purposes. This is the first and only
claim taken under the act in either the
Dickinson or Bismarck land offices and
may be the onlyone in the state. When
offered at Bismarck the entry was re-
jected, but Captain Gregory took the
matter to Washington and won out.
The law has lately been changed so
that parties cannot now make similar
filings on land. This land takes in
what is known as the Davis Butte
quarry.
