Sometime during the hours when
the household was Slumbering Satur-
day night a thief entered the home OF
NJ. l.. Syyerud out at the end OF 9TH
street and proceeded to do a neat and
daring bit of robbery. The thief went
through every room in the house but
one and examined all the pockets he
could find. Mr.. Syverud seldom car
ries money in his pockets but for some
reason or other he put a five dollar
bill in his pocket before leaving the
store Saturday night and the thief
found it. He also found about $40 in
a pocket book belonging to Mark
and a little change in the pockets
Of two of the boys. Mr.. Syverud
thinks the thief must have entered
the house through the cellar and left
by the same route. The fellow who
did the job will land in the peniten-
tiary before long yet he will feel like
a cheap bum theft when he learns
that Mrs. Syverud's pocket book was
lying on the table in the bedroom
with $50 inside. One of the little
boys had two cents in his little peck
ct book and the meaSly sneak robbed
the little boy of his pennies. 1T is
certainly too bad that this sneaking
scoundrel can't be caught and If
caught in the act of robbing his hide,
should be filled with lead.

wilson Ostrander and a Bronco.

Mr. and Mrs. Wilson OStrander
we're in town the other day ana tney
favored the LEADER with IL call. VIZ
Son was complaining Of feeling q III
lie stiff and finally told how he came
by the stiffness. =,

bronco as we'll as | could in wal times
when we used to hunt for a dead cav
alrvman but / had a sad realization
that il was a mistake"
.sYou see,n said he, "the caltIe
didn't come up and the boys were
gone and | jumped onto a bronco
without saddle or bride ana vent
after the measiy critters. everything
vent well until the bronco nad 10
lump a ditch then the run began;
The brute just then realized tllat !

then came a buck and IA hump ana
vour uncle was sitting e a the tail.
Another buck and Il hump and Il WlllfI

watching and felt better for thai
Then | got. up and limped to the
house saying in effect that h cattle

convinced me that | was out or the
cavalry class and not as Timber as

Wilson is Ct and will soon claim a
Sl5 pension under the new law. lie

good things that come his way.

Divorce Law Referendum.

A petition asking for a referendum
OF the divorce law passed at the last
session has been circulated in Canton
and signed by one hundred or more
who want to see il submitted to a
vote OF the people.
The mercenary motives 50 common
among rich people In contracting
! what is termed a marriage condition
needs a free and easy divorce law to
Gus ambitions.
When the married insists seek sep
aration through Sordid motives it is
lust as well to unite them because a
divorce IS the only solution of their
troubles be they honest or otherwise,
and it makes little difference Wheth-
er they get separated at Canton. 500
Fails or Oshkosh. A speedy disslu-
ton Of the bonds that hold the mis-
fits together, only in name, is better
| than forcing them TO seek, unlawful
~, perhaps, conditions not recognized
i'm society.
Would Bishop Hare force a man
and woman TO live together when Nv
ing together means Il hell upon earth
to both, or would he favor a compul-
sorry fraud upon society by refusing a
legal separation when they have part
C' " S'V'.
The divorce evil is a condition
| which must be met. You cannot
make a man and woman live together
when they have decided to part be
the cause what it may. Then what
is left?
Those who come to South Dakota
seeking a release from Il hateful
union are people Of mean and in
most cases they come to avoid a home
scandal. and in nine cases out Of ten,
the divorce court is satisfactory TO
both, because, if there is a man in
the case there is likely to be a
"woman i'm the case" and there you
are.
Marital troubles can not be
healed by law, but law can give them
a chance to mend their ways and i'm
prove their conditions, perhaps.
If a six months separation finds no
latent spark of affection left, then
let them part and go their way in
peace. :,
There is one thing that every trial
Judge should do and that is to make
all trials public.

BEAUTIFUL NAVAJO GIRL DIES
 IN MISERY.

TUBA, Aril., Sept. L. The death ot a beautiful Navajo girl took plare near here under peculiarly distressing circumstances.
 The girl had been partially educated in one of the government day schools and was an especially bright and sen. siblo Navajo. She had been thc means of getting her hcathcn relatives Co send her little brother and sisters Co the boarding school at Carlisle, Pa, and had done mucn t0 assist her pcu. pie in educational ways. Not long ago she was taken with a complaint which caused serious illness, and developed n fatal nervous attack from which she died.
 But the pathetic side of Inc ease il, developed from the fact that this poor girl, who was educated far be yond her people was hurried Co death hy the crude and innuman acts of the medicine men \ helpless witness 'o the scene saw her surrounded day and night by these hidcous priests. The hogan was kept dark with smoke from burning juniper weed, and with th" charcoal from half burned wood the priests made n black paint which they kept continually applying to her body while they kept up their chanting, a'' compancd by the tom tom of n skin drum.
 IL was relief to this worn ou'' nerve sick girl, when, at last, amidst the shreks of the shamans, she found escape by death from surroundings which by nature anl her education 'ho was far above. The sending of ;h' educated Indian children back again to the tribal life is one of the crying snamcs of the government policy. Oi ten times the Navajo and Moqui girl are obliged. after years of the refining and Chris,ianizing influences of the school life ,to go back not only to 'hc hogan life. but to bc traded by their parents ,o some greasy buck for pony or n dozen sheep.
