Black River Falls.-The Indian
agency at this city is abolished
by orders received from Washington.
The reason given is that the Winneba-
go tribe in this vicinity is dying out
so fast that an agency is no longer
necessary. Only sixty survive of the
branch of once powerful tribe occD-
plying this neighborhood The surviv-
ors are transferred to the Tomah
agency, where a considerable number
of Winnebagos still remain.
