Prltea aggregating $33,500 aro hung up for the pllota of spheri cal balloons In distance flights and for altitude attained. It was the belief of the Aviation Week committee, which was named by the Merchants and Manufacturers' Association of Los Angeles, that by offering these magnificent prises In the three divisions, practically all of the great aeronauts and aviators of the world would be attracted to Loa Angeles, and as the meeting Is In uo wise a monoy making proposition, but Is aimed lo lake tho place ot the an nual fiestas In Los Angoles, tho ob ject of the comlmttee waa to pre sent aa varied and atartllng n aerlea of spectMlea during the meeting aa the progress of the science of flying can afford to date, So It la certain that the people who are attracted to Loa Angelea during the meet will br assured not only of n cordial and friendly greeting from the business men ot Loa Angeles, but will havo an opportunity to aee more ot tho won derful new science than haa ever be fore been afforded.

C, Dee. 37. (Special Correspondence to th Even- lag Herald) The flrst step toward Ihe cloilng up of the allotlng of tho lands to the Ktamatb ladlana has been taken, nnd with It may be lookwd for the final termination of tho Jong delay that has kept It bottled up from settlement for so long. fThe Secretary of the Interior baa ordtred Commlaaloner Dennett to Issue pat ents for G2 claims. This Is a por tion of the 1,180 allotments made In 1900, and which have been hanging Are ever alnee. Last October Horace Q. Wilson, superintendent of the Kla math Indian Reservation, was In Washington and took up the matter with the Secretary ot the Interior, It Is aa a result ot his labors at that time that thoy have been dragged out ot Ihe pigeon hole where they have been kept for the post nine years, and patents ordered Issued. Few, If any, of Ihe superintendents of Indian reservations stand so nigh with the Interior Department aa does Mr. Wilson. During all of his admit, Utratlon be haa been uniformly up held In nil ot his acts, and when ha makes a recommendation It haa at ways received the careful attention of the Indian Bureau aad tho Secre tary of the Interior. Tho remaining 221 allotments havo been referred to Mr. Wilson for r checking nnd recommendations nnd when he haa completed hu work thereon the department wilt aet on them. Orders have been Issued to Super intendent Wilson to begin the pay ment on or before December Sd of the Interest money due on the Kla math Indian trust fund. This taker- eat amounts to about llf.OOO, and will prove a very aceptable Xmas present for the Indians. ., The patenta to which the above article refers are those to which .ref erence was made la last Wednes day' Herald. The remaining ajlot- menta are made up moetly ot the work done by the Rev. Mr. WblW, nnd It Is presumed their reference to Mr. Wilson Is nlong the line ot de partmental routine. All efforts lo reach Mr. Wilson today wore unsuc cessful, aad It Is therefore Impossible at this time to ascertain how aoon he will complete his labors or how soon It may be expected that the. res ervation will be thrown open for set tlement. It may bo assumed, how ever, that following his custom In handling all reservation business, Mr. Wilson will use every effort to have Iho matter brought to aa early con clusion.
