ting that Canon City will be treated
to surprise when the time comes to
make the plans public.

Elton Rogers of Syracuse, Illinois,
containing 120 acres.

oped upon it. For this Mr.. Rogers
receives the sun of $500.

Kupperschmidt Wins.

In the case of May E. Case VS.. John
Kupferschmidt, involving the posses
sion of the n. E. / of section lS-l3S-63,
the interior department has rendered
a decision in favor of the defendant,
Kupferschmidt. The homestead in
question is located ten miles south OF
Jamestown. The land has been in
dispute number of times.
February 4, 1896 Gottlieb. Ottinger
filed a homestead on the tract. March
%, 1898 George Bennett filed contest
and the next day Ottinger relinquiSh-
ed the land to Bennett. Bennett was
allowed 80 days in which to use his
preferred right Of entry. During this
period Miss Case rendered application
to the Fargo land office but her claim
was rejected.
Prior to this John kupferschmidt
rendered his homestead application
accompanied by Benefits waiver OF
preferred right. The application was
accepted and placed on record in the
Fargo office. Miss Case appealed from
the decision of the Fargo office and
was upheld by the commissioner OF
the general land Office at Washington.
KupferSchmidt was notified to show
cause why his entry should not be
Cancelled. He tiled an answer recitlng
that he had made $500 improvements
on the land and that both Miss Case
and her attorney Fredrus Baldwin
knew when taking the appeal that he
was residing on the land but gave him
no notice of the action.
1t seems, however, that MISS case
was married Nov. II. 1885, to Eugene
WARREN and the decision against her
in the interior department is based on
this fact. The department holds that
even if she were entitled to the land
her marriage with Mr.. Warren dis
qualified her from holding the land as
her domicile would necessarily be with
him. The application of Miss Case
was therefore rejected and the claim
I awarded to Kupferschmidt
Attorney McHarg appeared for
kupferschmidt and Fredrils Baldwin
for Miss Case.
