The face of Elearora Duse to the casual observer is not beautiful, save
in moments of animation, when it sccms to be able to express every step in
tho gamut of human feeling There are times wien looking at her one secs
only an almost plain Italian woman whose youth is past At these mo-
ments she resembles the poor, tired Italian mothers that one see some
times in the cars, with huge, msshapen bundles in their laps
The great tragedicnno5 wonderful eyes have the same look Of pathetic
WEAKNESS, OF stond endurance, and there IS the same pathetic droop of the
mouth. But on the stage, animated by the genius which few, II any, dis
pute, nuse changes in one moment from the tragic world-weary woman to
the incarnoion of youth and passion. Then her features, which in rcposo
are irregular, and even somewhat coarse seem beautiful.
Buses eyes are never ordinary, however. Sometimes they seem more
wonderfully varied in expression than in her Quieter moments, but the fire
OF genius shoulders in them always.
Her figure is not particularly symmetrical, and she looks best in the
long, flowing gowns which she generally affects on the stage and in private
life.

TITLE TO FORTY. ACRES
Last of Disputed Section 80" Land,
Involved in Suit, Decided by
-. Judge Lochren. 49,.

The title to forty acres Of land near
Ely, Mimi, which may prove very valu-
able, is involved in decision given yes
terday afternoon by Judge Lochren Of
the United States district court. The case
was an offshoot Of the well-known sec
ton 80 case," which has been before the
courts for fifteen years.
The land in dispute is 800 acres in Sec
ton go, in Lake county. 1t is sthe pre-
sumed' site of one Of the richest bodies
of iron ore in this state.-~ The half section
was claimed by various persons, who had
secured their title by filing various sorts
used Sioux scrip; A. NJ. Miller, who
assigned to the Midway company. used
"Valentine' scrip, and the Minnesota Iron
| company and Others used "Quarterfeld"
scrip. :. The title to 2S0 of the, 800 acres
has already been determined by the United
States supreme court The Sioux scrip,
said this tribunal, took priority, and the
| $50 acres belonged to F. w. Eaton, r. H.
Pagan and Leonidas Merritt Of Duluth and
G. j. Lonstorf Of Milwaukee. 1t was to
fix the ownership of the remaining forty
acres that the action decided yesterday
was brought by. F. w. Eaton, the Nika-
Miss company, r. II. Pagan and Marga-
retha Lonsdorf, against the Midway com
pany, James Belden and c. w. Hilliard.
| Judge Lochren, who had heard the ar
guments at Duluth, announced yesterday
that he could not distinguish any differ
ence between the status of forty acres and
| that Of $50 acres. He would accordingly
| follow the decision of the supreme court
and award the title to the plaintiffs.
| It is possible. however, that the case
will be appealed to the circuit court and
thence to the supreme court.
