Best opportunity you've seen today!
The Dakota Territorial Museum is seeking applications for a full-time paid intern (pref. upperclassman or graduate student) to work four months during the summer of 1998. The Museum, which is located in Yankton, SD, focuses on the history of Dakota Territory and Yankton's role as the first Territorial Capital. 20th century County history is also heavily emphasized. The approximate working dates of this position are early May to early September; starting and ending dates are somewhat flexible. The possibility also exists for an extension to five or six months for those who need an extended internship.
The internship will afford significant opportunity to work with exhibits and educational programming, and a background and interest in one or both of these areas is highly preferred. An interest in working with objects and programming related to American Western history is very desirable, as well as a willingness to work in a small museum environment. The ability to direct volunteer workers who will assist with programming and exhibit work is required. Also some day-to-day operational work.
Interested parties should send a letter of interest and a resume to:
Director Dakota Territorial Museum P.O. Box 1033 Yankton, SD 57078
Questions pertaining to the position may be directed to Mark Morrison at

I am a graduate student attempting to finish up my thesis on the 'Identification and Classification of Historic Toy Marbles for Museums and Archaeologists'. I am inquiring to the people who know of any such objects in their collections to briefly outline: Quantity Materials Provenience (if known!) References used to identify them as such and If spheres of stone, glass, clay or metals under 1/2 ' in size...what other object names have been given?
I have received some good information or 'not found here' replies and thank you all for the well-appreciated use of your time and collections databases. This is mostly a simple guide for under 1000 total marbles. Diane Rice, currently Program Coordinator at the Garden City Library, ID
