HEAR OF LIFE
in OLD MEXICO
Speaker Tells Grace Auxiliary
MexiCanS Know How to
Cook

Mexico" provided a pleasant hour
for members of Grace Auxiliary Of the
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society
yesterday afternoon. A visitor who
was afterwards enrolled as a member.
Mrs. +. n S. Woolston, had lived in
Mexico for seven years, and gave a de-
lightful account of every day doings
of Mexican life. She spoke OF the
excellent cooking, and told the correct
way TO make tamales. The Mexicans.
she said, never fry or roast meats. they
chop the meat into little pieces and
cook it with vegetables.
The speaker said President Diaz had
started an excellent system of free
schools. Diaz had been described as
cruel. she said. but it seemed to be
the only way for him to rule the peo-
pie. Mrs. Woolston also told of the
perils endured by many missionaries.
who had frequently found their lives
in danger i'm times past. There were
quotations in regard to missionary
work in Mexico given by different
members of the auxiliary. The pro-
gram was illustrated by a little Mexi-
can wooden figure which adorned the
chairman's desk.
Mrs. Mullin reported good prospects
for the bake to be held on Saturday by
the auxiliary in the east class room

ing and will be held in the evening on

gram will be i'm charge Of Miss Dora

FOR U
viii Decide Whether Primary Nomi.
nee is Eligible

Pierre-One of the more important
cases before the supreme court is the
hearing of the state in relation to L.
ca Ochsenritter VS.. c.. E. Blegen, audi
tot of Day county. The Ease deals
with the candidacy of L. A. Hetley for
county superintendent of Day county,
who was nominated by the republican
party at the June primaries. Hetley
has formerly been superintendent,
but a short time ago his necessary
first grade certificate expired, leaving
him destitute of qualifications to hold
the Office. During the primary cam
paign, the opposition to Hetley failed
to file a statement to the effect that
Hetley was disqualified to run for the
office in accordance with paragraph 2,
chapter 80, laws OF 1909, which says:
That if any person shall file state
ment on oath, with the county audi
tor fifteen days prior to the holding
of any primary election or any other
election, hat any person whose name
has been certified to the county audi
tor as a candidate for county upper
intendent upon any ticket is not quail
ined under the provisions of this act
to hold the Office Of county superin-
tendent, said candidate shall within
five days after being notified Of said
statement being filed, file with the
county auditor full proof that he is
qualified to hold said ONCE, and if he
fails to do so, the name Of said per-
son shall not be placed upon the Of
fetal ballot as a candidate by the
county auditor.
The question comes up whether or
not after having run the gauntlet OF
the June election, a man can be dis
qualified for the finals. by filing proof
of disqualification against him. HaV.
ing been nominated, even though con.
trary to statute, is his nomination
valid? The action before the court Ia
for an order to prevent the placing OF
Hetley's name on the official ballot q

BABY'S SKIN TORTURE

when our baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat, but which gradually
grew worse. We called in a doctor.
He said it was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in Atchison
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands we're a solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to
keep him from scratching. He never
knew what It was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until he
was cured. He kept US awake all
hours Of the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right thing.
FINALLY I got a set of the Cuticura
Remedies and I am pleased to say
we did not use all of them until he
was cured. We have waited a year
and a half to see If it would return
but it never has and to-day his skin
is clear and fair as 1t possibly could
be. I hope Cuticura may a " some

Real Test Of Character.

You cannot read a man so well dur.
ing his busy hours as by what he
does after supper, or from the closing
hour Of business to bedtime. You can
not gage his character so we'll by the
money he spends for ne~cessaries Of
the living Of his family, as by that let
tie overplus of money which Is left
after the necessary expenses are paid.
What does he do with his spare
money. that margin left owe from
business and from living expenses?
What he does with that margin will
throw a wonderful light upon his char
acter.
The largest part Of every active life
must be devoted to getting a living.
attending to ones affairs, and this Is
done by most people in a routine sort
Of way. You cannot tell much about
the real man during these hours, be-
cause he has a system, his regular
daily routine, n he does very much
the same thing every day. But the mo-
ment he is free. he is quite a different
man Then his real propensities come
out. People are not natural until after
they are free from restraint.
Watch the boy and the girl when
they are free from their regular du-
ties. and see how they spend their
evenings, what society they keep,
what companionships they form, what
they do. This will be q pretty good
test of their character.-8uccess.

INDIAN
Government Will Attempt to Recover
Property Of Its Ward

S'
Property Of Its Ward
Sioux Falls-United States District
Attorney Wagner will go to ROSEBUD
agency e week to take the depo-
sitions of certain Indians. in a civil
action which the government has he
gun to money belonging 10 an
Indian ward, High Star, by name,
from Edward B. Kelley, former In
dian agent at Rosebud agency. +. J.
Dehell, who was at one time Indian
trader at Rosebud, E. w. Coultis, who
was in the employ of Debell, H. But
terfield of Madison county, Nebraska,
Harm Johnson Of Meyer county, South
Dakota, and John Moritz of Plymouth
county, Iowa.
The charge against these men IS
attempting to defraud the United
States of title to lands which title ii
held. in fee, for High Star, one of its
wards.
This charge is based upon a ruling
of the secretary of the interior of the
United States that whenever an In
dian is competent and capable OF
managing his own affairs, he may ask
the government to deliver to him a
patent to any land which is being
held in fee for him.
The allegation contained in the
complaint is that the interior depart,
ment. acting upon the statement OF
Edward B. Kelley, then, in 1908, a-tine
as Indian agent at Rosebud, that High
Star, a Rosebud Sioux Indian, was
competent the secretary Of the inter
Tor issued to High Star a patent TO-
section %, township SO, range "a,
comprising Gas acres.
That the application forwarded u
the government and purporting to be
the application Of High Star, was OBJ
tanned by fraud, in that High Star
was not competent to judge Of the
yalue of the land. which he had secur-
ed patent for. That the real value OF
the land is $4,000.
1t is also charged that after the IT,
tie to the land was obtained, High
Star was induced to go before Debeli,
who was a notary public and sign
deeds, conveying that land, for the
sun of $4,000. to E. w. Courts.
That COURTS then sold the land to
w. IL. Butterield for $4,000, who sub
seuuently sold one-half of it to Nor
itz for $1,000, showing the value OF the
entire section to be something like
SIG 600.
The government sues to re o er
$40, 900 for High Star. which IS the
price paid by Butterfeld for the land
and which is $4,000 more than Debell
paid High Star for it.
The suit was filed in the fedora
court December 7 last year.
All of the defendants have filed an
swers to the complaint in which they
set I'D defenses of various sorts and
kinds, all alleging that High Star was
competent.
