Significance in Names.

In an Illinois town a wOrkingman
having been informed that a sixth
baby had arrived at his home, ex-
claimed: "Sufficient," and his neigh

hat name-Sufficient-to the new
arrival, credited him with originality.
The incident resembles a case nearer
home, adds the New York Tribune.
A New York family a blessed with
nine daughters, when the stork

days when the slang term for an oft
told story was a "~chestnut," and as
the baby certainly came under that

NON SERVATIO N
SCHOOLS, SAYS COMMISSION.
Err VALENTINE.
HANNA OPPOSES SCHEME
Commissioner Would Close Indian
Schools at Bismarck and Wahpe.
ton-CoaI Lands Are
Withdrawn.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Pursuant to the
administration policy to close all nom
reservation schools, the Bismarck and
Wahpeton indian schools are in dan
ger of being closed. These schools
represent a total investment of more
than 5000, 900, and according to Com
missioner Valentine are a drug upon
the country in so far as results are
concerned.
The interior department has taken a
strong stand in favor of reservation
schools, and if they can muster suffi-
cient votes in congress-, every nom
reservation school in the country is
slated to go.
Representative Hanna, however, is
making a determined fight for the con-
tinuation of the two North Dakota in
situations and in the preliminary skir-
mish today succeeded in having $780,
600 inserted in the indian bill for Zach
project. He admits that he will have
an uphill fight to keep the items in
the bill.
Secretary Ballinger today submitted
to congress a schedule showing the
number of acres of the public domain
withdrawn from entry under the pro-
vision of the act of June 25, 1910, in
North Dakota. A total of 1,7S2,S1S
acres of oal lands was withdrawn.
The treasury department estimates
for the ensuing ear call upon con
gress for $4,000 for support for the
Fort Berthold Indians. Ten thousand
dollars is asked to start the Devils
Lake Indians IN their way to self sup
port. The money is to be used for the
purchase Of implements so the Indians
may be taught industrial pursuits as
we'll as farming.
Instead of the usual large appropria-
tions for the Bismarck and Wahpeton
schools, only $4,000 is asked for the
care OF the property in each case. The
interior department would abandon the
institutions On the other hand. 81, 800
of improvements are contemplated Oh

Outlook BRIGHT.

Roundup.-A joint meeting Of the
County Division Club and the Roundup
Commercial Club took place here. At
this meeting the paramount issue is
the creation of a new county, to be
known as Musselshell county with
Roundup for the county seat. The
bill was up before the legislature two
years ago and was defeated, but since
the election of two representatives Of
Fergus coutny, both of whom have
been closely identified with the county
division movement, the outlook for
the creation of the new county is ex.
ceptionally bright, and the divisionists
are now determined to leave no stone
unturned in attaining the coveted
prize.
