10000 Names.

Aberdeen. S. D, Oct. 9.-It is becom-
ing apparent that James w. Witten.
government superintendent, was near
ly correct when he predicted that the
total registration of the Cheyenne
river and Standing Rock reservation
lands would be about 100000. The
total at all registration points down 10
date is about $4,000 There are Is DAYS
more of registration. which will bring
the total up to 10000 if the present
rate is kept up.
All the registration towns and rail
roads are disappointed at the. unex-
pected lack of interest. If only 100.-
coo register the applicants will have
one chance in ten to win a farm. the
lowest percentage of applicants to a
farm since the lottery system was de
vised
Exaggerated reports of the prices IF
meals and beds are partly responsible
for the lack of interest shown. Gen
eral Agent A. G. Johnson of the Nor.h
western road sent instructions 20
agents of the system to notify the pub
lie that rates for meals and lodging
were reasonable. Lodging ranges
from 20 cents TO 81 night Meals
are IS cents and up. The same prices
prevail at all registration points.

CONCRETE PAVING Is
CHEAPER THAN BRICK
Various Varieties Are Made That
Find Favor i'm Cities Where
They Are Tried.

While the cost of many things has
gone up, due to the general prosperity
il now looks as though the cost OF
street paving is to be reduced. This
is to be brought about by the intro
duction of concrete paving, which it is
stated can be laid in streets and on
highways at the cost of $125 for each
60 feet of lot frontage.
Concrete has been laid in some cit
les for street paving. and the reports
upon durability are encouraging. The
streets of the United States Steel com
pany's model city of Gary. Ind, have
been paved with a concrete called
granitoid.
The city of F'on du Lac. Wis, has
let contracts for seven miles of con-
crete paving at S1.32 per yard. Inves-
tigation made at Marshaltown where
concrete paving is to be laid, indicates
that Rock Island or any other city can
secure good paving at less price than
has heretofore peen paid. There arc
patent processes upon which royalties
must be paid, and which perhaps are
better, which will cost more than the
plain concrete. 1t is conceded that the
latter will answer all practical pur
poses, and is in use in many of the
larger cities in the United States, and
costs only about one-half, or two-thirds,
as much as asphalt or brick

1t was also agreed to make a bid for
franchise in the Central league that

not going to pay $4,000 for a franchise
