America were the Jesuit, says LInpir-

mode Of treating the natives was more
humane AMI their plan for the develop
nent and progress Of the country more
advanced than any other attempts OF
that period. They sought 10 establish
a permanent home for their sect with
wealth and splcudor that would equal
that Of the old worlG, and their work
was characterized by prudence, indus
try and wisdom. Other settlers came
only as fartunc-hunting Adventures

VALIDITY OF A TAX SALE
The Deed Alleged to Be Void on
Several Grounds.
CASES IN THE COURTS
Mrs. Maude r. Chase Begins an Action
for Divorce-Mrs. Pistoni Want Per-
mission to Do Business in Her
own Name as Sole Trader.

An action to test the validity of a tax
sale and deed to some property in the
Central addition was commenced in the
district court yesterday by the Cobban
Loan and Realty company against Lau-
ra Il. Slough. The property is described
as a portion of lot 3. block 6. of the
Central addition. The property was sold
for taxes by the county treasurer in
1893 to c. ID. Morgan, and the latter as
signed his interest to 4. T.. Morgan and
he transferred it to the defendant, Mrs.
Slough. 1t is alleged that the tax deed
is Illegal and void. for the following
reasons: The notice of the sale was not
published according to law: the treas
urer did not on or before the third Nom
day in December, 1892. deliver to the
county clerk a delinquent list of persons
and property; the property was not sold
by the treasurer within % days after
the last Monday I'm 1892. as required by
IaW; the treasurer had no lawful au-
thority to sell the property for the taxes

after the execution. of the deed the
plaintiff rendered to A. r. Morgan the
full amount of taxes paid. together with
the penalties and interest allowed by
law. and the tender was refused.
For another cause of action it is al
legged the property was again unlawful
~ sold for the taxes of 1894, and the
same grounds of alleged illegality of
the sale and deed alleged i'm the first
action are set out. The court is asked
to adjudge the tax deed null and void
and that the cloud be removed from
the plaintiffs title.
Josie Pistoni yesterday petitioned the
district court for permission to do bust
ness in her own name as a sole trader.
In her petition she states that she is
married to one John Pistoni, but that
for more than a year he has contributed
nothing toward the support of his fam
lily. She says that he has conducted
himself in such a manner that she
would be entitled to a divorce: that he
has converted means and money to his
own use wrongfully and within the past
year or more has lived apart from his
wife and in open adultery with another

Another symptom of the drift is in

number of people come TO this country
from Great Britain, but the novelists
never heard of it. Micawber and his

QUEER DEATHBED REQUEST.
Prominent Japanese OF No He
Iigious Belief Leaves Direc-
tions for Burial.

Lieut.. Yoshibumi. Funigawa, of the /.
J. N, left behind curious request to
his family few days prior TO his death,
which occurred the other day in his ma
tive district of Hizen. He observed to
his family that as he had never had time
to investigate religious questions deep
ly enough TO enable him to determine
which faith he should embrace he was
neither prejudiced against nor partial
toward any form of religion. However,
be himself was of opinion that his soul
would perish with the cessation of life,
while his remains would crumbie to
dust. Therefore he did not wish to
Lave any religious services performed
on his behalf, says the Japan Times.
The funeral also should be as simple
as could be and flowers and similar
offerings be strictly declined. No an
nouncement should be made of his
death to friends Of his until four or five
days after the funeral. Two or three
weeks after his death his relatives and
friends should be invited TO a banquet,
and they should be asked to enjoy the
occasion as heartily as possible. A
priest might be invited. if the presence
OF such parsonage were deemed de-
sirable. At the funeral also nobody
should accompany the bier, except, if
considered necessary, one or two repre-
sentatives on behalf of the family and
relatives might follow the remains TO
the grave. The tomb was to be of the
simplest description, only his name TO
be inscribed upon it. A memorial tab
let was entirely tabooed.
