ABOUT
BERIH0LD PRESERVATION
HOME SEEKERS WANT TO KNOW
WHEN RESERVATION WILL
BE OPENED.
Some Prospects Of Lands BEING Ap-
praised and Disposed of This Fall
1t Is Stated.

| Napoleon, N. D., April a.
Editor, Bismarck Tribune: In re
| gard to the Fort Berthold reserva
ton, could you give me any informa
ton when the reservation will be
opened to settlers?
l am anxious to get good home
sted for agriculture.
And how much will it cost to get
! a homestead in the Fort Berthold res
ervation?
l would be very glad to have you
answer my letter. Or answer it in
the Weekly Tribune.
Yours truly,
OSCAR HOKSCH.
The above Is q sample of hundreds
Of letters now being received By ncws
l,aI ers, by the United States land Oi.
fee, real estate dealers. the state of.
ton. For the information Of such
inquirers the Tribune publishes this
explanations:
Although measure is pending in
congress, introduced by Representa-.
tive Hanna of North Dakota, it Is
difficult at this time to say whether
or not even in event of the passage
of the measure, which seems likely,
the opening of the Fort BerthOld In.
dian reservation can be had this year
An effort is now being made to
have the opening this fall. Nor are
we advised as to the manner in which
the lands will be disposed of, whether
by lottery like previous reservations
have been opened or in some other
manner.
In any event the lands will first
be appraised and settlers will be
obliged to purchase the lands at the
appraised value, in tracts of not over
100 acres, and so far as the govern
ment can make the restrictions ap-
plicable, only bona fide home seekers
need apply.
The lands in this reservation are
not cheap lands. The soil is good and
the country all around is we'll settled.
There will not be a large area, but
there will be some choice tracts and
it is expected, inasmuch as the In
dians who own this reservation are
wise and thrifty, that the prices of
the lands will be considerable higher
than those in the Standing Rock res
ervatiOn recently opened.
But the terms will be favorable and
those who want to get in on the
'ound floor will be wise if they keep
posted-one of the surest and most
reliable sources being the Bismarck
Tribune.

DRANK CARBOLIC ACID

Mrs. Fred Henninger, wife of a
farmer who resides about six miles
northeast of Medina, committed sui
eide by drinking a quantity of car
bolic acid. Her husband was absent
from the house at the time and it
was not until about noon that the
men returning to dinner discovered
the sad ending of the victim Of self
destruction. Mrs. Henninger had
been somewhat demented of late and
it was stated had threatened to COM
nit suicide and had been melan-
choly. She left besides her husband
four children. Mrs. Henninger was
about IS years of age. The funeral
was held Wednesday at p. m, the
father of the deceased arriving from
Minnesota.
Mrs. Henninger had evidently in
tended to commit suicide soon after
the men left in the morning, and it
is supposed that she drank the pois-
on after breakfast and early in the
morning as the breakfast dishes were
not cleared away. The Oldest of
the children is but II years of age.

M'CANNA'S FAITH Was
Of The right kind
PIONEER Of ToWNER COUNTY
MADE FORTUNE BY eEL,Ev.
ING IN STATE.
Came Here From Minneapolis to Tes.
tify Before State Board Of School
and University Lands.

Hon. D. w. McCanna, an old timel
of Towner county. has been in Bis
marck to attend the hearing before
the state board of university and
school lands with respect to the
charges of an illegal sale, recently
brought up through the press of the
state and considered at an adjourned
meeting by the board.
McCanna was the holder of the
lease Of land at the time it was TEN
porarily withdrawn from sale, and he
has been here to give testimony re-
garding the sale.
He states that he bought several
parcels of land from the state at that
time and afterwards for the same,
and he declares that the sale was
fair and above board and there was
no cr0okedness.
Mr.. McCanna is one of the men
who went into the northern part of
the state in the early days and has
profited by his faith in the country
and wise investments in land. He is
the owner of good many acres of
the fertile soil in this state and has
other interests that make him
among the solid financial men of the
state. He has served the state in the
legislature, and was a senator back
in 1893. when Roach was elected to
the United States senate. He recalls
that session with particular interest.
He was one of the Immortal twenty
three" democrats who overcame a re-
publican majority and brought about
the election of democratic senator.
1t was he also, who was the prime
mover in the banquet that was given
at the old Sheridan house to celebrate
the event, where noted democrats
from all over the state joined in the
rejoicing.
Conditions have changed much
since that time. Roach is dead and
good many of the leaders Of the
political fight of the winter of 1898
have left the state or passed to other
fields of endeavors. Mr.. McCanna
retains his interests in Towner coun-
ty and the state, but lives good
share of the time in Minneapolis. He
expects to remain in the city until
today.

A special train has been arranged

LANDLORD IATLEY
IS GOING higher
NEW ADDITION TO THE GRAND
PACIFIC WILL BE FOUR
STORIES.
Work Is Now Under Way - Original
Building May Be Raised in the
Near Future.

Having gotten started with the
construction of the addition to the
Grand Pacific hotel. which is to con
tain a modern kitchen, refrigerating
plant and number of airy new
rooms. Landlord Tatley has decided
to make the addition four stories in
stead of three.
There is such a demand for hotel
accommodations and the additional
cost not being unusually great, Mr..
Tatley believes it will be a paying
investment to build four-story adj
dition, and in time, the other part of
the hotel, fronting on Fourth and
Broadway, will also be raised an ad-
ditional story, making the hotel one
of the most compact and commodious
in the state.

the support of New York millers.
Arguments will be heard here June
l, at the Offices Of the commission.

to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republican
Iowa City. March 26.-1owa's big
quartet of leading schools in college
athletics the big Four" Ames, Drake,
Grinnell and Iowa will dissolve this
spring and in it's place will develop the
big Three" composed of the three
members of the Missouri Valley con-
ference. Iowa, Ames and Drake.
The transition which will be noticed
this spring marks an important epoch
in the athletic history of the state.
Much to the regret of every sportsman
interested in college athletics Grinnell
will drop to the secondary schools.
This change has been fastened by the
action Of Grinnell in planning a state
meet for the minor colleges and in
withdrawing from the Inter- Collegiate
baseball league.
The fundamental causes of Grinnelfs
position are the dissolution of the old
state meet, the classic athletic event
of the college year and the failure OF
GrinneIl to get into the Missouri VAL
ley conference.
The shifting of the scenery will bring
many expressions of sorrow from the
sports follower VINO mas 1alIHlully
backed cthe Maltese cross athletes.
Some Of the best athletes ever pro-
duced in the middle west have come
from this little school and year after
year the scarlet and black with spirit
that is the admiration of the average
collegian has developed winning track
teams and basketball 'fives despite a
comparative small enrolment. The
"Grinnell spirit" is perhaps the best
tradition in the athletic history of the
Hawkeye state.
For the past five years, however, the
enrolment of the Grinnell school has
shown a large increase of girls and the
number Of men annually registered has
not been In proportion. This accounts
for the change of iowa College" as it
is correctly called, from the big Four"
to the position of head of the smaller
schools of the state.
