Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1909-10-29

ABERDEEN, S. D.. Oct 2S--tspeciaL)-
At the close of the second days drawing
for farms in the Standing Rock and chey-
enne indian resefvati0ns.. oyer 600 names
had been picked from, the 81 .O00, envelopes
piled on the wire-screened platform. Judge
Witten, after hooking up the authorities
at hand, sttll insists William j. Engel the
Butte. Neb man who drew first, has for
feited his rights by subsequent filing on
a claim in Trip county made three days
before the drawing.
The drawing Of the first 10000 names In
the Cheyenne River and Standing Rock
Indian land was completed at 2 o'clock
today. This finishes the number actually
required to file on all claims to be opened
for settlement An additional 10000 names
VIII be drawn, however, to cover any
possible deficiencies which may occur when
those whose names have already been
drawn fail to file on claims.
EngeTs one Brief Hour.
BUTTE. Neb. oct. 2S-willlam d. Engel
who drew claim No. in the South Dakota
land lottery at Aberdeen, was husking corn
for his brother, four miles west OF town,
when informed Of his good fortune.
Joy gave way to fear lest he be ineligible
to take the claim because Of the fact that
only four days ago Engel went to Gregory
and filed on a quarter section Of land in
Tripp county four miles from Rosedale.
1t cost him $50 to make the trip to Pierre
to register for a chance in the drawing
and he has been kicking himself ever since
for spending that money. He never had
any hope of drawing a claim, for he says
he never had been lucky in such things.
Tuesday was the busiest day the local
nff hoo Tn 40 "a
EngeI received half bushe basketful OF
messages from all parts OF the country.
Many newspapers wired and the Milwaukee
railroad sent him SOO-word message offer
ing to locate him free of charge.
