Announcement.
Pending the coming negotia-
tions, between the S. Commiss-
ion and our people, circumstances
will of necessity make it an impe-
ritive imposibility for us to pub-
lish The Progress during that time.
And we beg our friends and pat-
rons to please be patient with us
until such time as we are again
enabled to avail ourselves of your
kind attention and generour court
esy.
Have Signed.
Our brethren, the Red- Lake
Chippewas, have accepted the
measures proposed to them by the
U. S. Commission, and upwards of
two-thirds have signed the agree-
ment.
From what we learn of the, to
be, new arrangement, we have ev-
ery confidence to believe that our
brethren have made a good bar-
gain, and earnestly trust that the
same good prospects may be at-
tained by our people of White
Earth.
Ti Baking -Now.
The first brick kiln manufactur
ed by Mr. W Norcross, to be
employed in the construction of
the Catholic mission school build
ing, and containing about 175,00,0
bricks, was fired' on Thursday.
"Billy" has every confidence to
believe that his White Earth brick
venture will be a success in every
way, and that the brick manufac
tured will be equal in grade to the
best in this or any other state.
W don't know of any one to
whom success could more fittingly
bestow her favors than to W
Norcross, that iss if hard, honest
and earnest labor enters as a crite
rion to deserving worth.

giving, say, the like jurisdiction

other counties have, except it

as to be less expensive.
The site chosen for the school
buildings lies directly east of the
church and parsonage.
They Are Doing
It may be of interest to our
readers to know how much the
Church is doing towards promo
ting education on this reservation,
especially the Catholic church.
A few days ago we were gracious
ly permitted the privilege of ac
cess to a large and well filled store
house adjoining the St. Benedict's
mission school. Here were great
piles of boxes, barrels and flour,
and an endless yariety Of useful
articles pertaining t6 the home,
kitchen, school room and garden,
etc. A large range with full equip
ment and including a baker's oven
particularly interested our atten
tion.^This fine piece of culinary

A Se Back.
Oweing to some misinterpreta
tion of portions of the contracts in
connection with the furnishing of
building material to be employed
in the construction of St. Bene
dict's mission school at this agen
cy, the erection of the buildings
will necessarily have to be delayed
until next summer. Th founda
tion only will be put up this sea
son. And we learn that Rev. Fa
ther Aloysious has already received
instructions to proceed with this
part of the work at once. Con
tracts for the excavation and the
furnishing of stone for the founda
tion walls, etc., will soon be let
and the work pushed rapidly for
ward to completion before the
heavy fall frosts set in.

A career grand 'unostentatious

in life and which remains hallowed
and beautiful in death, whose
lofty grandure shines transcend-

and clustering endearingly within

Wah-be-mah-noh-min, Ch'n of
the S. Commission now among
us, and like his brother, his name
and many good deeds towards our
people have won a 'warm spot in
the bosom of the Minnesota Ojib-

as a friend and benefactor, as a
brother.
At the suggestion of Col. T.
Whiting, M. D'., who is the only
member of the S. Commission
now present, the flag was lowered
at half-mast in honor of the dis-
tinguished dead.
Bishop Marty's Illness.
Rt. Rev. M. Marty, D., one
of the members of the S. Com
mission, now here, to negotiate
with our people, contracted a cold
when on his way to Red Lake some
three weeks ago, which gradually
developed into an aggravating na
ture. ^And a few days previous to
his departure from Red Lake and
on his return to this agency the
indisposition manifested serious
features, and when he finally ar
rived here on Tuesday the*Rev.
Gentleman was a very sick man.
He'was at once conveyed to the
Catholic parsonage where every
thing was done to make him com
fortable and alleviate his agony
and suffering which were intensi
fied by a tedious journey over a
rough road, covering a distance of
some 180 miles, through the s-ultry
heat of a broiling sun. A the
time of our going to press, this
Saturday, ,we are pleased to note
that his condition, is' much im
proved and the fairest hopes are
entertained for- his speedy recov-

GROWTH OF A BI ROOK.When
Webster's Unabridged was first pub
lished in one volume, it was a compa
rative small book. Some years aftei
an addition was made of 1500 Pictori
al illustration, a Table of Synonyms,
and an Appendix of New Words that
had come into use. A few years later
came an entirely new revised editioi
of larger size, with 3000 Pictorial il
lustration then after an interval of a
few years, a Biographical Dictionary
of nearly 10,000 names, and a .fiuppfc
ment of nearly 5000 new words wer
added and now there has. come. anoth
er new and most vrluable addition,
Gazetteer of the world, of over 25,00t
Titles. The work is now not only th
best Dictionary of the words of the
language, but is a Biographical Die
tionary. a Gazetteer of the World anr
a great many other good and useful
things in ifca many valuable Tables.
