La Crosse. Wis, is proud of its To-
cation on the Mississippi River. 1t lies
in cup, surrounded by magnificent
bluffs. and la Crosse men, after travel
ing all over the world in search of
beautiful scenery, have invariably
come home disappointed at what they
have seen. East of the city lies range
of hills, the highest of which is known
as "Grand Daddy" From the top Of
this bluff three states and five differ
ent counties lie stretched out under the
eye. The location Of La Crosse makes
it perfectly secure from the attack Of
cyclones or tornsdoes. The bluffs
which surround it act as tenders, and
many severe storms, which did great
damage elsewhere, have passed over
the city. Five miles north of the city
lies Rice Lake, and here hundreds of
the citizens of La Crosse make their
home in the summer time.

be substituted In Soutter's place as the
owner of an eighth interest In the rein
vestment of the $4,000 which he had orig
inally paid for the property, but this
does not seem to be in accord with legal
views.
There are further complications The
trustee, in reinvesting the proceeds of
the sale, altered the terms of the trust,
by giving trust deeds for a life interest
in the property to each of the four heirs,
the trust deed to Mrs. Soutter being for
a one-fourth undivided interest for life
and after her death to her son, James T.
Soutter.
Her husband, Robert Soutter. having
died, Mrs. SOutter married the Duke
dAuX. incidentally, the New York papers
had lengthy accounts some time since
of the differences between the Duke and
his wife and it was mentioned that the
latter was very much given to lawsuits.
In 1887 the Duchess borrowed a large sum
of money from Mrs. Pauline A. Durant,
a lady of considerable wealth and promi-
nence in Boston, giving mortgage on her
interest in the Lamar wharf property.
Failing to repay the loan, suit was brought
in the Superior Court of this county, and
a judgment was given in favor of Mrs.
Durant for $6,3475O The decree provided
only for the sale of a one-eghth undi-

the property of the Duchess. This was
sold and bought in by Mrs. Durant for
$1,000. She has since held the title there
for and collected the rents thereon.
AS the matter now stands, the one-eighth
interest of the Duchess D'Auxy in the
property has been sold and purchased by
Mrs. Durant James T. Soutter, having
disavowed any partnership in the pro-
ceedings leading to the sale of the original
trust property, and having obtained his
share in the property from Eugene Kelly,
the question is who is the owner of the
one-eighth interest which would have been
James T. Soutter's had he consented to
the sale.
The object of the suit which has been
just decided by the Supreme Court was
to determine the ownership Of this eighth,
but the decision of the learned body leaves
this question in as much doubt as ever.

Supreme Court Leaves "A Long Mooted
Question still in Doubt.
The decision of the Supreme Court, af-
firmlng the decision of the lower court in
the case of Pauline A. purant. against
Charlotte Duchess D'Auxy, leaves a pecu-
liar state of affairs as to a valuable piece
of property, the status of which the courts
do not seem to be able to fix.
The property in question for which an
owner is desired is a one-e.ghth interest in
the Lamar wharf property in Savannah.
On July 2, 1885, the late Gazaway b. La
mar conveyed to his SON, G. deRosset La
mar, certain real estate in Savannah for
the use and benefit of himself and his three
sisters, one of whom was Mrs. Charlotte
A. Soutter, now the Duchess D'Auxy. The
deed was construed by the Supreme Court
to create a fee simple estate in each of
the unmarried daughters, and an estate in
common to Mrs Souteer and her son.
James r. Subsequently, upon the petition
of the heirs, with the exception of James
T. Soutter, who seems 10 have been over
looked q decree was granted by the Su-
preme Court for the sale of the real estate
for $50 coo. the late Eugene Kelly being the
purchaser, and the row of buildings known
as the Kelly Range being erected thereon.
The proceeds of the sale were rein
vested in the Lamar wharf property Sub
sequently James T. Soutter entered suit
against Eugene Kelly for his undivided
one-eighth interest in the property deed
in trust by his grandfather on the ground
that he had not been made a party to the
proceedings for leave 10 sell the same.
He was successful in this suit and Mr..
Kelly was required to pay him the sum
of $500. By rights it would seem to the
lay mind that Mr.. Kelly was entitled to
