That it Is the intention of the de partment of the Interior to endeavor to open 1,145,000 acrea of land In the Taklma reservation to settlement this year Is the statement contained In the annual report of the department just Issued from the government press at Washington, says the Taklma Republic. whether or not the preliminary work which has been done In the way of classifying and valuing the lands will be completed In time for the opening thla year remains to be seen, but It is the general opinion that If the work Is not done this year the reservation will be opened to settle ment early next year In time to allow of the new settlers getting in their crops for the harvest of It OS.

The lands will be valued and the successful appli cants will have to pay In Installments this purchase price which goes to the Indian owners in Addition to the usual homestead fees. One of the most Immediate results of the opening of the reservation wil! be the rapid development of the res rvatlon towns and' with the prospect it the early Influx of hundreds ol hlte farmers to the reservation spec- tilators are looking to Toppenlsh and Wapato real estate as a good propo sition.

JNO. S. HODGIN, Referee In Bankruptcy. Pistol as a Means of Discipline. Miss Anna Howard, matron of the woman's dormitory of the University if Washington, employs upon occa sion, as It appears, a rather unusual method of frightening away mischiev ous boys from the premises under hei harge. Inquiry Into a recent murder revealed the fact that she had fired t pistol In the air twice about mid night hte night previous to drive sup posed mischievous boys away. Tht hole In the head of the murdered man who was found In the campus next nornlng, was made by a SS-cullbcr mil, whereas the pistol used by the helllKerent matron was but 32-callber. thus exonerating her from the possi bility of having Inadvertently killed a harmless old man a student's tullor ;0 years ojd.
