Dear Mrs. Thompson: About two
months ago / became acquainted with
c girl ] I and | have been writing to
h-r ever since. Two or three weeks
ago ! found out through some Of her
relations that she was in the habit of
taking things that did not belong to
her She ives in another town and is
coming TO see ME this winter, she said.
My father and mother do not want me
TO correspond with her at all because
being with her some place / might get
myself in trouble on her account. I
am afraid that if l don't write to her
she will set angry 9Th me. In every
Other%wav she is as nice a girl as ever
lived. I heard she was going to have
trouble with some people right away.
Shall l just stop writing to her alto
gether or write shorter letters every
time l write and quit? | am a girl of
good Tepute and do not want to be
looked down on. CHICK
ID Since you live in another town
do not believe you could be of any
help to the girl in reforming her l
believe it viii be best to stop writing
TO her now. Be quite sure that what
YOU heard about her is true before you
drop her and show your friendliness
by not mentioning her faults to any
one else if it is true.

Indians Given Deeds.

Sisseton Elaborate ceremonies at
tended the delivery of fifty Sisseton
Sioux Indians of deeds to their lands
by the government. The government
was represented by Major James Nc
Laughlin, the veteran Indian inspect
or. The delivery of the deeds gave
the fifty Indians the full citizenship
rights. The shooting of the last ar
row was used in delivering the deeds
to the Indians. The Sisseton Indians
have been divided into three classes
for citizenship purposes by Agent
Mosman, In charge of the agency. The
fifty Indians just made citizens stood
first in these classes. they being pro-
nounced the most competent to handle
their lands and business affairs with
out the assistance of the Indian agent
or the government. The members OF
class No. 2, who did not develop the
necessary qualifications. have been
given another trial and will try to
make good so they can receive their
deeds and their full rights as citi-
zens next year. II Is estimated that
about two hundred Indians have a
place in this class and may have the
qualifications necessary to entitle them
TO be made citizens next year. The
members of class No. 8 are regarded
as being permanently incompetent,
and it is doubtful II they will ever
advance enough to, entitle them to citi'
zenship rights. The issuance of the
deeds to the fifty Indians will mean
that city additional tracts of land
heretofore not listed as taxable now
will be added to the taxable property
of Roberts county. The addition OF
other tracts of Indian land as the In
dians become citizens eventually will
reduce the tax rate in Roberts county.

Lake county that has ever been

are at a loss to account for the un-
~precedented number Of muskrats in

that they do not recall a season when
the demand for steel traps has been

Mink and weasels, on the other hand,
have been comparatively scarce in
