suit was filed in the United States Dis

having been unlawfully engagcdin seal
ing III Bchring Sea, is before the United

yond one marine league from shore: and
that the act under which the schooner

restricts free navigation i'm Behring Sea

ST.. PAUL, Mimi. special: Az Indian
was in the city investigating the right
of his sister to secure Il divorce after
the manner of the pale faces. This
is Il novel case from tic fact that there
is no record of an Indian asking for di-
vorcc. at least so far as application to
the civil laws is concerned. He was
advised to go TO the nearest State Court,
which in this case is New Tim. He
stated that his sister had married IL
fearless warrior, who deserted her the
next day and has not since returned to
his tcpec. The deserted has
some property i'm her own right, which
she wants to keep from the interference
nf her unlaithful husband. and to be
free to make such future alliance as
she shall desire.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, special: still
there is 40 word from President Smith
Of the Church of Latter Day Saints.
The meeting ut Independence was not
marked with anything out of the ordi-
nary. and while the laying on of hands
and Amounting of the sick went on the
business session was devoted to hearing
reports of the various quorums and
listening to the testimony of the mcm-
bers who spoke of the revelations made
to them. One member was scored in
the report for the use of tobacco. While
this is the seventh day of the confer
encc. there is no %diminution of interest
taken by the members. and the prayers
and testimony are as fervent as on the
irSt day.

Melbourne papers received show that

places through which Deeming passed
sn route to Melbourne, and people

ports show that the case is practically
the same Us already reported in these
dispatches.
