HE DON'T GET 1T.
How Henry Tatge Gave UP His
Property--Supre me court Il uling.

Henry F. Tatge of Rice county, as cyl
dence submitted to the supreme court shows,
was given certain property by his father
and mother, Otto and Engel Tatge, in con-
sideratior of which he was to support them
in their declining years. Henry, 1t also APP
pears, had fears that certain woman was
about to claim him as the father of her lille
ultimate child. He decided that it could
not be proven and refused to marry her,
and to avoid any payment of damages made
over the property to his mother, who told
him she would give it back when he had
settled with the woman. Henry settled.
Then he wanted his property back, but his
mother refused to give him deed of it.
An appeal case on his part was yesterday
decided in the supreme court, which refuses
to recognize his claim. The court, speaking
of the nature of trusts which Henry claims
his mother created for him, says that a
married woman cannot create a trust unless
her husband join her in the deed. Further,
it says that his mothers failure to keep her
promise to give him back his lands, because
it was not in writing. are not fraud that the
court will recognize. Accordingly the de-
cision that Henry cannot get back his prop
erty by law is affirmed.

THIS ICE CARNIVAL.
Interesting Communication From
the SnOvyshoe Club of winnipeg.


The winter carnival and ice palace is at
tracing more and more attention at home
and abroad. The Snowshe club, which
started with such asboom last week, will
have another meeting tonight in the Ryan
hotel, and the Scandinayans are thinking
of organizing another one. Mr.. Hutchinson
of Montreal, who has built all the ice pal
aces of that city, is now probably on his
way here to consult with the managers
about the one for st. Paul On the subject
of snowshoeing clubs, Mr.. Tallmadge, the
general manager. received letter yesterday
from Mr.. Holloway, former secretary of the
ST. Georges SnOwShoe club of Winnipeg,
in which he said:
Your letter was read at the annual general
, meeting and can assure you that there is a
desire among all the members to go down to
st. Paul not only to see the carnival and to
meet you all in a friendly way, but also to
help you in your enterprise. The whole mat
ter will hinge on the transportation, and
prefer waiting until your deputation arrives
here before even stating my views in the
matter privately. Our club committee and
some other gentlemen will meet you on your
arrival and feel satisfied that the citizens
of Winnipeg as well as the SnowShoe club
viii join in heartily and assist their American
cousins in their undertaking.
1t was with mu ch pleasure / heard that ST.
Paul had established branch st. George
Snowshoe club. 1t WILL am sure, seal more
closely that band of friendship which exists
between the Americans and the ''Canucks,"
and at any time that any member of your
branch or other United States branch may be
visiting any city in Canada where a branch is
formed q letter to the secretary or other Off
Ger will insure him friendly welcome. That
is one of our reasons for spreading this
clubs branches all over the Dominion. l
think / may say that at your carnival next year
IL convention OF the different branches
might be held, when large number from our
mother club in Montreal and other branches
in the Dominion would attend.
