Thousands of Acres Saved.

Washington-The supreme court of
the District of Columbia has decided
a case in favor of the secretary of
the interior, the effect of which will
be to turn over to the State of Min
nesota several thousand acres of land
the timber alone on which is said
to be valued at considerably in ex-
cess of $1,000,000 The case was
brought by Gus A. Beauleau, VINO, act
ing on behalf of the Chippewa tribe
of Indians, sought to restrain the Sec
rotary from turning the lands over
to the state. The Indians claim the
lands should be sold and the pro-
ceeds divided among them. Secretary
Garfield decided that the lands should
be given to the state under an act
of congress giving to it lands that
were swamp in character.
The lands are located on the coded
Chippewa Indian reservation in Min
nesota. On behalf of Secretary Gar
field demurrer was filed which set
forth that the State of Minnesota was
an essential party in the case, in fact
co-defendant, and that under the
eleventh amendment to the Constitu-
ton a state cannot be sued by one of
it's citizens, and Beauleau's petition
for an injunction should be dismissed.

Powder Magazine Explodes.

Minneapolis = Exploding with a
crash that was felt for miles around,
the powder magazine at the Univer-
sity of Minnesota went off with a
deafening report, completely wrecking
the place, throwing debris high into
the air, breaking many windows and
sending a stream of flame heaven
ward. No one was killed or serious
ly injured.
Immediately following the explosion
tongue of flame shot up to height
of about 100 feet and the roof of the
cave wherein the explosive was kept,
and which consisted of boiler iron,
was thrown some 800 feet into the
air and came down in a crumpled
mass.
The cause of the explosion is not
known, though some boys started a
grass fire earlier in the afternoon and
that may have been the origin of the
trouble.
Only a hole in the ground marks
where the magazine was. All the Win
dows in the assay building of the min
ing department were blown in and the
chemistry and law buildings suffered
similarly There was no one in the
ueighborhood at the time.
