The following is a copy nf ii circular of instructions that has been issued regarding the opening of the north h .If nf lbe reservation : "Homesteaders cannot make actual 'settlement before noon on October 1(1, I'OI. Otherwise th-y would lie "sooner* and if found out would lose their olalm*.

A homesteader can live It months from date of entry on his Innd and then pay foi it al $1.50 per acre, When a claimant is seek! ig title iu lbe least time, he will adopt this alternative," The chance* are congress will pas* a ', w within i v.i years, making this land ' free. In thai event a homesteader will ! not have to pay for it. if Iw lives oo it live years, lt is understood that the Timber Act also applies to these land-. Where nil applicant seel', title under j this acl lie piys ^2Ztll per acre. The laud under this law must, he I chiefly valuable for its timber and non- mineral as iu the code of land entered under the homestead law, Under Acl of Oongres* opening the reservation, each Indian, no mailer of what sge, was entitled to Nl acres ol land, and eirb SU acres was in n single tract, If a Ulan ha I a wife and half-a- dozen children, the wife and children received lhe same amount ol hind per capita as I he father and hustiand, At the time Ilie allotment of land to Indians wa* inad» there were only Sim Indians, including half breeds, ou lhe north half of the reservation, so i thai the total amount of land required lor Ihem was 81,000 acres. There are i nearly 1,500,000 arres of In ud altogether | in the north half. Thus il will he seen, lhc Indians absorbed a mere insignili cant fraction of the whole amount, However, it must not hn supposed all those lands are agricultural land*. It is a mountainous country, and onlj the valleys and bench lands are lit fo cultivation, Hut there nre here and ihere magnificent stretches of tine Kt'ji/.ing lands. Much nf th mntry is prairie, and many of the mountains themselves are covered hy a limirianl growth of grass and are free from timber. For twenty miles after leaving Curlew station, Ihe rond leading lo Republic p.is-es through the Curlew valley and along Curlew lake, with thousands and thousands of acres ol fertile prairie land on either side, It is one of the most ferl iie pieces of conn liy ill the noitliwest.'iind will support ji large funning population, The Importance to Midway ot the opening of these lands run scarcely be overestimated. Kor the Inforinatioii of those not familiar with the physical features of the country, it may he staled tlmt the Kettle river crosses the International boundary line ut Midway, and afler making a rough semi circular detour of about 'fit miles reenters Canada al liaison, some ten or twelve miles due east of Midway. Curlew creek, at lbe head of which is the tioiirishltig town of Republic, Wash., joins the Kellie river at Curlew, a small seltlemeie about 111 miles south east of Midway, Between Midway and I'lirlew lhe Keltic river valley is generally wide, open and Well adapted to agricultural, horticultural nod p^s- toral pursuits. The comparatively large urea of fertile land Ibis purl of the valley elnlnvices. as well as that up Toi'iidil meek anil olher streams which on the"1'"' ,ley°"(*i having lo lie through thi town—in relation to much of tho north half that it must, of necessity benefit largely from the consideralile accession ot Industrial population that will follow the opening of Ihe land to white settlement, Thrifty fanners with their families are a material support to a lown, ami now that there is a goml prospect of the nuuiliers of this desirable class who have hitherto done business with Midway merchants being hugely added to the outlook is the COUNTY COURT, BODIE CAMP. A Rich Camp to the South of Midway that Is Coming to the Front. Bodie camp is situated ahout twelve miles south of Midway, Heretofoie little has heen heard about this camp, hut of lale much development work has lieen done and the result* have proved so satisfactory that several companies owning mines iu the camp have decided to get everything in readiness to carry on work throughout the I coining winter, while others will commence almost immediately, and when lhe richness of ihis camp becomes better known it will receive the attention it is justly entitled to. It contain* ledges of free gold, and with a good wagon road from Ihe camp to Midway the cost of transportation will lie comparatively small, and by the time the mines are ready to ship to any extent .the Standard Copper Company's smel- I ter, which is being built near Midway, will I e completed and in a position to treat I he ores, ubich are very suitable for pyritie smelling. Probably the richest mine known in the entire ramp is tho Bixlie, owned hy the IJ'die Mining Company, 'from which samples of ore have ta-eii taken carrying free gold which could easily be seen with tile miked eye and assaying as high as $1,000 tti the ton. On ihis claim a shaft about 120 feet deep was sunk nearly two years ago, and since then little or no work was done nnlil Inst Bprillg, when several open cuts were run and a tunnel started which is now iu 27u feet, and il is expected when this tunnel has lieen run 00 feet farther to lap the ledge at a depth of 'in feet, and should the nre at this level li- found rich enough to prove that, greater assays are attained hy deplh another tunnel, 1,0011 feet long and gaining nearly ;V«l feet in depth, he sl ailed close do,vn to the creek. The property Ims lieen prospected by a series of open nils almut 200 feet apart, showing the ledge to run the entire length of tlie claim. The lirst open rut that was rin -bowed the ledge to he 111 feet wide and giving an average assay of $|IKI in gold, while n seam next lo the hanging wall, which wus ahoul one fool wide, assayed all the way I'i om $.Vm to HU.I0I in gold. About li") torn will be put to work on Ihe property in a few days, and a new shafl house, hunk house and dining lull will be erected, A numher of ore car* have been ordered for the mine, ami nre expected to arrive iu a few days. The Myrtle i* another property that ba* a very fair showing. A til-foot shaft has been sunk and nt lhat depth a ledge ot good looking ore was encountered, hut it. is thought tbat it is not lbe main lead, so an open cot wa* run and another ledge disclosed, which is supposed lo hi a continuation of that running through the Hi*lie, and the next work done will la- to sink a shaft ou this ledge. The Maud Wcst.nwnodhy Biengmuli and Haiti, is undoubtedly the makings of a good mine, ll was loeated ou .Ian, 1st, 1.H1HI, and joins the Bodle on the souih. A ledge 10 feet wide crops out on the sui face, from which all ns- say of $l'2 wns obtained. A 31-foot, shaft wn* sunk on this ledge, ami it wa* found that at t his depth Ihe value of lbe ore lmd increased to $02. At present a tunnel is iu 170 feet, and when another 10 feet have la-en run it is expected to lap the ledge at a depth of over 100 feet, and in all probability the ore al that depth will give good assay values. The Klk has the best surface showing in the camp, but this is no doubt due to the fact lhat it is a galena proposition. From 21 assays taken from the ledge nt dilferent distances across tlie eulire length of the claim, the highest was ii'M). The property bus Three Criminal dies Tried Under the Speedy Trials Act. County court wns held on Monday and Tuesday of last week, His Honor Judge 8pink* presiding. Owing lo three criminal cases being tried under the Speedy Trials Acl iiiid .i time was taken, causing court to last two days.

Six open in^s or crosscuts have been made to show tip the vein, tbe width of which bas not been delimtely ascertained. The thickness or deplh of this oxidized mil ter seems to vary, being in some places about III feel, and under which is found sulphide ore carrying gold li is tiie opinion of many old miners that ibe liars on Kock creek, more particularly the rich White's bar. which is hbt a short distance below the Dayton claim, were fed by this rich decomposed surfnee ore.

The nearest to thnt depth is the Nn. 2 shaft nt the Old Ironsides mine, in Greenwood camp. This new development at the .Mother Lode will he pushed on with so as lo get the work as far forward as possible before the end nf the cm rent year, by which time new and larger plant will have been installed at the mine and Btuping ore to supply the company's smelter, now approaobing completion, hive been undertaken on | a comparatively large scale.

Whereupon Dlnsmore, with ji view to getting more work done, complied with the request, hut nt the snine time Informing Ihe prisoner In words Lhat did nol huve a double meaning, that the removal of the shackles did not in any Way release him frntn six months' hard labor, carrying In wood and performing such household duties as might he required of him.
