Tax TITLES Declared Good.

Des Moines. Ia, May 14.-The su-
preme court has confirmed the title to
$4,000 acres of land in the present
owners, those who hold it by tax
titles, which the heirs Of John Irving
wanted set aside. Irving bought .unim-
proved prairie land, $4,000 acres Of
which he allowed to be sold for taxes.
His children sought to establish that
he was insane and that the law pro-
tected his right to redeem. The courts,
district and supreme, held that Irving
was not insane and his failure to re-
deem within one year after the same
was made confirms the title to the land
In the owners.
