BAREFOOT FADDIST
SEEKS WARM CLINE
indiana Merchant Going to New
Mexico to Enjoy Real
Pleasure.

Decker, Ind, Nov. Elm order that
he may go to a place where he can go
barefoot the year around, John w.
Ingle, the barefoot merchant of Iona,
near here, has sold out his business.
He is planning to mov to New Mex
leo.
For 20 years Ingie has been a thriv-
ing country merchant and because he
discarded the use OF shoes from May
to October he became widely known as
the barefoot merchant During the
warm months, no matter what the oc-
casion, Ingle wore no SHOES, even 60
ing shoeiess to Evansville and VIM
cenne on buying trips.
He was once stopped by a policeman
In Evansville and taken to police head
quarters as a probable fugitive from the
insane asylum there, the officer thinking
him crazy" because he was barefoot.
Ingle says he is never in good health
and happy except when shoeless. For
several years he has planned to leave
his climate. but until now he was
never financially able to do so. He has
made a success as a merchant and is
probably worth SIS 5000.
His six children. too. follow the bare
foot steps OF their father, and believe
in the creed of lose your shoes and
gain your health" Ingle's children en-
joy rare good health, and no doubt their
hardness Is in a great measure due
to the fact that shess Sc barefoot as
much as possible. Mrs. ingle. however,
wears shoes all the year.

DRUG CLERK DECEIVED RY
THIRSTY DETECTIVE

Vermillion, S. D., Nov. 3.-Walter
Johnson, the detective who succeeded
in causing the arrest of Joe Deyine at
Wakonda on a charge of illegal liquor
selling, left for parts unknown the
latter part of last week. He will re-
turn this week to testify in a case
wherein B. f. Waterman, a local drug
gist, is the defendant.
While hanging around town last
week., the detective dropped into the
Waterman drug store and called for a
glass of cocoa cola, and asked the clerk
who served him If he couldn't put @
stick" in 1t. The clerk refused and
informed the detective that it was
strictly against the orders TO sell liquor
to anyone. But the detective was not
to be put off that easy. He engaged
the clerk in conversation, which finally
drifted to places n event in Mime
apolis. The drug clerk, apparently
hankering for news from dear old
Minneapolis, became quite Interested
in the detectives narrative and finally
asked his new friend behind the pre-
scription counter, where, according to
the detectives story, they took a drink.
Later the stranger ordered another, and
then, to get away strong with the
evidence he was after, purchased a
bottle of whiskey. Mr.. Waterman was
absent in Sioux City at the time of the
occurrence.
The case will come mn In the adj
5ourned session of court which will sit
mere this week beginning tomorrow.

sum FOR LICENSE
Estimated Net Revenue Under
Iowa's New Game Law Is
Placed at $4,000.

Cedar Rapids, Ia, Nov. 6.-The
sportsmen of Iowa are wondering what
the state is going 10 do with the I'M
mense of money that is being
derived from the issue of hunters Ii
censes.
Already 1880 blank licenses have
been sent out from the office Of State
Fish and Game Warden Lincoln in this
city to the various counties of the state,
a major portion Of which, 1t is believed,
have been issued. Estimates place the
total number OF hunters licenses that
will be issued at 80, 900, as many more
will doubtless call for them when the
quail season opens. n the whites
shooting Of rabbits begins. The num-
Der of licenses to nonresidents will be
comparatively small, as there is no
Shooting in Iowa as compared with that
to be had In Minnesota, the Dakotas
and other neighboring states.
1t is safe to assume, therefore, that
the state viii derive a net revenue of
something more than $50, 900 from this
source. which will go, under the terms
of the new law, to the credit of the
fish and game protection fund. This
amount is practically six times more
than the fish and game warden's de-
partment has ever mad TO eXpend in.
any one year, and as no plan has been
laid for the expenditure of this money
it will be seen that by the end of five,
years a fund will have accumulated
that will enable the state authorities
not only to maintain a strong and Wig
orous warfare against the violators of
the game laws, but as well to do some
thing substantial In the way of propo-
eating fish and game.

TELEPHONE LINES
MUST Be CONNECTED
SAYS COMMISSION
Contention Is Settled Through
Decision-Java Loses Griev-
ance Case.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. "A great
deal of important business was trans
acted during the regular monthly
meeting OF the South Dakota BOARD or
railroad commissioners, which a just
been held at the headquarters Of the
commission IN this city.
The people OF Java, Walworth county,
had made a complaint to the board to
the effect hat by Strengthening out It's
coast extension at Java the town had
been left three-quarters of a mile from
the new line and depot building OF the
Milwaukee Railway company. The.
railroad commissioners fully investt-
gated the matter, and during the meet
ing decided the board vas without
jurisdiction in the case. The evidence
presented to the board did not bear
out the allegations made in the COM
plant to the board, which in brief
were to the effect that the people of
the town were Inconvenience by the
alleged abandonment of the old depot
of the railway company. The evidence
Showed that local and freight trains
We're u over a spur track TO the old
depot and that through rains on the
coast extension, which pass through
Java at night, stop regularly at the
new depot situated on the outskirts OF
the town.
Lines Must Connect.
The Citizens Telephone company, OF
Centerville, complained to the board
that the managers of the Beresford
telephone system had refused to per-
nit a connection being made with the
lines of that system. The board fully
investigated the matter, and at the
meeting just cid decided that the
complainant company had a right to
connect with the Beresford system.
This case has attracted wide attention
among the telephone men of the state.
After hearings had been held and
the evidence secured had been care
fully considered during the meeting Of
the board, orders were issued requiring
the railway companies concerned to.
construct depot buildings at Grover,
Crandall and Onaka.

INDIANS RECEIVE
CHOICEST LANDS
ON RESERVATION
Become Landlords by Leasing
Their Lands to Ranchmen
for Stock Ranges.

LeBeau, S. D., Nov. 6.-With the
opening of "a few more tracts OF reser-
walton land, it is believed Uncle Sam s
famous and lotteries will pass into his
tory.
The lands that have been thrown
open TO -settIGg;cE. came into possession
of the Indians through treaties with
the government and were set apart for
their sole use. Thousands OF acres were
leased out as cattle range and eve
today vast tracts OF land are used as
pastures. One ranch alone leases about
LOCO, 600 acres directly across from Lee
Beau, but a large portion of this will
have 10 be given up when the next
opening takes place. The revenue from
these leases is paid to the government
for the Indians, except in cases where
a lease is made directly with an In
dian, and most of the ranches are now
e~ndeavoring to secure this kind of lease
to Offset the loss of lands hat will be
thrown open to settlement.
indians Are Thrifty.
This arrangement has been satisfac-
tory TO the Indian who now appreciates
the benefits he Is receiving as a ward
Of the government, but the Indian Is
no different from his white brother.
With the acquisition of wealth he seeks
greater riches and they come to him in
no small measure through the opening
to settlement of the reservations. In
the allotments prior TO IN opening the
Indians select the land they desire.
Each head OF q family is allowed a sec
ton, the squaw a half section n ev-
cry child a quarter section. They are
permitted to TAX any part OF this land
wherever they desire.
Thus, most of the Indians take a
few acres adjoining a creek, where they
place their tepee or shack, and select
the remainder of the land in some 9TH
er locality. A large family can control
many quarters OF and and as they will
not cultivate 1t they are permitted to
lease ii.
Hundreds of these quarters will no
doubt be leased by settlers in the
Cheyenne and Standing Rock reserva-
tions next spring and as the reyenue
will be greater than that derived from
the ranches it will be seen that the
days of the great ranges are about over,

CHAMPION JOHNSON
PROMISES help To

Offers Money to Bowdry From
Winnings in Fistic Bout

Aberdeen, S. D., Nov. champion
Jack Johnson, the worlds foremost
prize fighter, expressed his c~ongratnia-
lions to the dusky winner Of first
choice in the reservation drawing.
Not only is he glad that a colored
mar won the high award, but he is
willing to help him to hold 1t. Since
the disqualifcations of William j.
Engle, who drew Nc. 1, Calvin Bowdry,
the negro porter at Bismarck, who
held No. 2, has come into the lime
light.
When appraised of the good fortune
of his c~ountryman, Johnson sent the
following telegram TO Aberdeen from
Chicago, thinking hat the man was
in this city:
Chicago, Oct. 2S.-Good boy. Con-
g"ratulations. Hang on to the claim
and l will help you. If you want any
money l have some, or l will have

Bowdry will probably need the
money, alright, for he can neither read
nor write, and has no means Of liveli-
rood except odd jobs. When he signed
his name to his application he had to
do it by making his mark. SO destitute
is he of education.
