EXPERT PROBES LAND FRAUDS
CHARGED THAT FARMERS GET
FARM LAND BY DECLARING
1T MINERAL.

Deadwood, S. D., Sept. 14.-To in
vestigate the merits of number of
mineral entries in the Black Hills for
est reserve, now known as the nation
al forest, Edward NJ. Bugbee, mining
and consulting engineer of the Uni
versity of Washington lat Seattle, is
here in the interests ofthe govern
ment. There are at present twenty
eight applications for homesteads on
the national forest that are being held
up until Mr.. Bugbee can look into the
claims.
1t is declared by the government to
be the practice in many cases for a
farmer to take up a second 100 acres
by declaring it more valuable for
placer or quartz mining than for farm
ing, and thus secure double amount
of land, when in reality, it is charged,
the land is nothing but agricultural
land and contains practically no min.
eraL
1t is to check this fraudulent meth
cd Of securing title to farming land
that the government is sending ex-
perts through the West to examine all
entries of supposed mineral lands on
national forests.

The cost Of the cloth for the new

tailor is to be employed by the prison
authorities to assist skilled prisoners
in making Up the uniforms. The tailor

prisoners will make the clothes.
The shirt factory which was estab-
lished at the penitentiary a year or
more ago is proving q great success.
During the month of August a total
of 4,200 dozen of shirts were turned
out of the factory. These shirts are
made for large dealer who furnishes
the cloth, fxings and everything en-
tering into the making of the shirts.
The penitentiary factory turns out the
shirts for a stated price per dozen.
Men in the shirt factory work from
1880 in the morning until $3.50 In the
afternoon, with an interval for dinner.
There Is system Of self-earnings
which is allowed the prisoners who
are employed in the shirt factory.
Each man has regular amount to
turn out each working day. If he is
able to exceed the amount that is al
lotted to him the profit that the state
would have made is credited to the
prisoner turning out the excess Of
shirts and is paid to him at the end
of his term of Imprisonment
Some of the men have become so
expert that they are able to earn from
81 to IS per month on excess shirts,
while others make as low as 81 per
month. The individual profit making
is an incentive for industry and good
habits.
Study While In Prison.
Warden Parmeiey of the peniten-
tiary has arranged with an Eastern
correspondence school for books on
a number of studies which are given
at the school, and will place these
books in the hands Of prisoners who
are anxious to improve their educa-
tional qualifications during the time
they are in prison. Warden Parme-
ley believes this will be better for
many of them than to spend their
leisure time in reading novels which
they secure from the prison library,

TOBACCO Gid" AT NORMAL.
Principal Says No User of Weed Shall
Be Student.

" Be Student.
II students of the state normal
school at Spearfish wish to smoke in
the school year they will have to re.
sort to corn silk or cubebs.
Such is the dictum of the principal,
81. L. Cook, who has just issued to the
parents lengthy ruling on the to-
5bacco evil, in which he decries the in
creasing appetite manifested by the
scholars and declares that he will eff
fectually stamp it out at once. Hence
forth, he says, no scholar will be adj
mitted to the school, no matter what
other qualifications he possesses, If he
is known to be user of tobacco in
any form, and particularly is this
aimed at cigarette fiends.
Prof. Cook says the old theory of
tobacco stunting the growth is all we'll
enough, but he has found that no
smoker ever makes a good student,
and it is the mind he is seeking to
cultivate first. He asks the parents
to cooperate with him in enforcing
this anti-tobacco rule, and says plain
ly that no student who smokes is
wanted at the school, no matter if the
rule cuts down the attendance to only
ten scholars.
He lays the blame for the smoking
largely on the heads of the families,
who permit their boys too much laxity

Man Is Chased by Prairie Wolves and
Has to Fight Them.
While riding around a pasture look
ing for some of his cattle, George
Davidson, member of the Monticello
colony in the region between the Mis-
souri, river and the Black Hills, in
Western South Dakota, had an INFER
esting adventure with a pack Of CO.
votes.
Davidson unexpectedly came upon
den of the snarling animals, which
strongly resented his intrusion and
Immediately showed fight. The colo
mist was unarmed, and he beat as
hasty retreat as possible on his
faithful little Indian pony. The CO.
votes gave chase, and the race con-
tinued for many miles, or until the
Indian pony gave out, when Davidson
was compelled to dismount and en-
gage in a fight with the animals,
which he finally succeeded in heating
off.
During the encounter Davidson re-
ceived many cuts and gashes from the
sharp teeth and claws Of the coyotes,
but is rapidly recovering from the
effects of the strenuous battle. So
far as known this is the first instance
in the history OF the Western South
Dakota of coyotes attacking any one
with the persistence shown in this
case.

Wonder often is expressed at the

Of the river are supposed to be inter-

it gets it's popularity from the revenue
that practically every county in the

small, but it is divided, and some
constituent of every member wants it
continued. In the distribution this
