WHERE INDIANS PROCESS
Making Considerable Success as Far.
mers on Reservation In
South Dakota.

The Indians on the Sisseton reserva-
ton in the northwestern portion of
South Dakota are making rapd prog
ress in civilization. This is borne out
by the statements of Major S. A. Al
len, the reservation agent. who says
that while fully rs per cent of the
reservation Indians are full bloods 65
per cent. of them have become agri-
culturists and have proved themselves
thrifty and fairly successful as farmers.
There are about 1000 redskins on
the reservation, which is so miles long
and 40 miles wide CT this amount
of land the Indians have been allotted
about 100000 acres, while the remain
der is now in the hands of the whites.
from this land the Indians this
years raised approximately 10000
bushels of wheat, $4,000 bushels of
oats, 10000 bushels of corn and 1000
bushels of fax. Their fair, held du-
ring three days of October, will CON-
pare favorably with any white mans
country eair in Sout4 Dakota. In
cluded in the exhibits were ninety ex-
hibits OF small grain, forty of corn and
large number Of vegetables. In adj
dition fine showings were made of
cattle. horses, hogs. sheep, chickens
and other products of the farm.
There are thirteen churches on the
reservation, the Episcopal, Presbyter-
ian and Catholic denominations pre-
dominating. During the last two years
l25 good farmhouses have been built.
The Indians are in the main virtu-
Gus, selfrespecting and show a re-
markable affinity for civilization, the
only drawbac'. to their advancement,
according to Major Allen, being their
fondness for liquor, which is some
times supplied thine by bootleggers

the govern nent to keep the liquor dis

a bullet hole in the rim of his hat

AVIATOR IoxSEY BREAKS
WORLDS ALTITUDE MARK At
Los ANGELES.
AccnMPLIsHEs FEAT IN GALE
Daring Airnan Thrills Enormous
Crowd in His Descent From
c;ouds--Is Benumbed by Cold
Wins a Prize of $1,000.

Los Angeles, Cal-Arch Hoxsey Of
the Wright team of ayiators Monday
broke the worlds record for altitude
here when he attained height of
11.474 feet and accomplished the feat
in 3o-mile gale that wrecked La
tham's moncpiane and kept cautious
ayiators to the ground.
Seventy thousand enthusiast
tic spectators gathered at Dominguez
field witnessed the record-breaking
fight of the southern California aria
tor. and when Hoxsey landed safely,
almost in front of the grand stand,
his paragraph was removed from the
machine and examined and the an
nouncement made that he had broken
the altitude record OF 10.499 feet es-
tablished by M. legagneux at Pau.
France, on December 10, pandemonium
broke loose among the spectators and
a mad rush was made for the field
to congratulate him.
Hoxsey's feat is without parallel in
the history Of aviation. He went
into the air a few minutes before one
O'Clock and quickly began his upward
flight. In short time he was beyond
the view of the spectators. He was
gone so long that the officials at the
field became alarmed and began ma
king inquiries and requesting the
nearby towns and beach resorts to be
on the lookout for the aviator.
Shortly before three O'Clock a spec
tator in the grand stand discerned
speck in the air, and it was several
minutes before the majority of the
throng could distinguish the speck.
Slowly descending, Hoxsey made
several complete circles with his ma
chine pointed downward, before he
became plainly visible to the naked
eye. While on the side of the field
opposite the grand stand he made a
sensational glide of 1000 feet. The
multitude watching him thought he
had lost control of his machine and
held its breath, but when within about
500 feet from the ground, the aviator
turned his planes upward and shot
into the air again. He turned his
machine completely around at the
pylon to the right of the grand stand,
descended and stifly climbed from
the machine
The cold air in the upper ether had
so benumbed him that he could
scarcely bend his Knees.
