FORT SHAW IS
OF THE PAST

Helena, Mont, Sept. 17-Fort Shaw,
the only non-reservation Indian school
in Montana, is now thing OF the past.
The school STAFF has been dismissed
and paid off and the equipment boxed
and sent to Indian schools elsewhere.
In few days the buildings and prop
erty will be placed in charge of a GUS
todian. G. G. Early, supervisor in
the Indian service, was In the city

situation.
The disposition that will be made of
the property and buildings is problem

retained by the government and con-
verted into an agricultural experiment
station. Mr.. Early has no idea as to
what the department intends to do
with the property.
The Fort Shaw school was very well
housed. There are twenty five build
ings on the property, most Of them In
good condition, and they are well

SURVEY OF N. D.
LAKES Completed

Devils Lake, N. D., Sept. 17.-North
Dakota's state biological survey party
under Prof. Howard z. Simpson, who
have spent several weeks in the neigh
borhood of Devils Lake and Stump
Lake has completed its work. The
party has been making a survey and
study Of the former beach lines and
morraines surrounding Devils Lake
and a considerable area OF the adtoin-
ing lakes has been matched. At Stump
lake a study was made Of the old beds
of streams which have flowed from
Devils Lake into the Sheyenne river.
A bench mark was established at
Hunters lodge. Albert Eastgate's
place and levels from the railroad sta
ton at Tolna. Later full report of
the work will be published In a re
port of state biological survey at
which time they Will also report and
give opinions as to the serious prob
lem Of the lake falling so rapidly since
the, record of levels have been kept
The exceedingly low water of Devils
Lake at present, and the constant
lowering of the water Of Devils Lake
year after year is causing fear that
this, the largest lake in North Dakota,
WILL within few years, become dry.
According to the report of the bureau
of fisheries, which made a thorough
investigation Of the lake in 1907, the
lake is at present 143 feet from
beach mark which was established in
1888, at the shore Of the lake, and is
rapidly falling, having fallen one-half
foot during the time they were making
their observations, a period of seven
weeks.
Within twenty years the lake
has fallen ten feet and has fluctuated
four feet under the changes of the
weather, and Is at the present time at
the lowest stage ever known. 1t was
the opinion of the bureau Of fisheries
that this constant fall was due to a
great extent to the fact that the coun-
try was cultivated, and that such Gull
tivation took up the rapid evaporation
of the lake.
In sounding the lake it was found
that the deepest place in the lake was
twenty-five feet, while large areas of
the lake averaged but six to eight feet.

Shaw. At one time the reservation
consisted Of 10000 acres of land, but
this was gradually reduced to its pres
ent size.
In late years the enrolment of the
Fort Shaw school was about 800 pupils
who came from all reservations in
Montana The pupils first attended
the reservation schools, completed the
course there and then went to Fort
Shaw. Many OF the Fort Shaw grad
yates later went to Carlisle. 1t is said
that more Of the honor graduates OF
the latter school came from Fort Shaw
than from any other institution in the
country.
1t is expected that within the next
two months the Indian department will
definitely decide on the disposition that
is to be made OF the school and the
reservation.

managers, Liebler & Co. The parting

an abrupt end on the final night of
Kendall's engagement at the Savoy
theatre. According to numerous au-
thorities, Kendall has suffered from
acute indisposition on numerous occa-
sions all season. At Seattle he succeed
ed in making two appearances, but
his malady became so acute that he
failed to report one night, so the house
management was compelled to return
about 5000 of box Office receipts and
the fashionable Moore theatre was
dark for five nights.

''DeWolf Hopper in his new show is

go much further
Constance Skinner, who usually
finds but little to praise, goes to this

piece is really remarkably well acted.
The comedy of Mr.. Hopper has never
a richer JOY than now. Miss Harriet
Burt was as charming as ever, and
