Orvis, has gone to Washington, ID. c.,
to represent the tribe of Yankton
Sioux in their case against the United
States government, in which the In
dams will seek to prove their legal
right to the Pipestone reserve, in
which is located the famous pipestone
quarries, from which from time i'm
memorial the Indians have made their
pipes and many things lin an orna-
mental way. This tract Of land was
reserved by the Yankton Sioux when

in question is much interested in the
suit as the land in dispute is sacredly
regarded by them.

EASY DIVORCE TIMES
RECALLED BY EFFORT
TO SET ASIDE WILL
Heiress of the Aston Millions
Devises Wealth Away
From Children.

Sioux Falls, s. D., Nov. 6.-The sc
curing of evidence In Sioux Falls BY
w. G. Blythe, an attorney Of Boston
Mass, In the celebrated divorce case
of Nine Margaret l.. De Steucrs vs.,
Alphonse Il. l.. De Steuers, tried dur
Ing the palmy days Of easy divorces
In Sioux Falls and South Dakota, Is
preliminary to what promises to be one
or the most noted will contests in the
history OF the American courts.
Although Attorney Blythe would not
talk for publication before his return
to Boston few days ago, the report Is
IN circulation among local attorneys
that ex-District Attorney Jerome. OF
New York city, and his associate, At
torney O'Brien, in the approaching will
contest will represent the two children
of Baron De Steuers, who were left out
OF the will OF their mother, which left
her millions to her son by her second
husband. Count Elliott Zoboroski, the
boy now being 16 years Of age. The
fight In behalf Of the Zoboroski boy
Will be directed by the New York law
firm of which Secretary Of War slim
son is member.
After Baroness De Steurs secured
her divorce In Sioux Falls and became
the wife Of Count Zoboroski, they de-
parted for tour OF the world, finally
taking up their residence in France,
"hCIC tie CouIil was hillcu u
car accident on April 1, 1903. and
where the baroness countess herself
died later.
In retaliation for the action OF the
two children by her former marriage
in siding with their father, Baron De
Steuers, in her divorce suit against
him, claiming that they already had
been given some Of her property, she
cut them of and left her millions to
the son born to herself and Count 20
boroski.
1t is stated here on apparent good
authority that the suit to break the
will Of Countess Zoboroski will be
brought on the ground that at the time
Of executing the will she was insane,
and had been for some time before that,
and, therefore, was not In a fit mental
condition to dispose OF her property.
The De Steuers divorce case was one
of the most celebrated Of the numerous
celebrated cases Of the kind disposed
of in the divorce courts during the
years that easy" divorces prevailed in
Sioux Falls and South Dakota. The
baroness before marriage was a Cary,
and was closely connected with the
Astors.

TODD AND WASHABAUGH
COUNTY LANDS NEXT

Chamberlain, S. D., Nov. 6.-With the
Mellette and Bennett registration
scarcely in the clear, active operations
have been commenced for the opening
of Todd and Washabaugh counties.
MAJOR Mclaughlin, who has negotiated
all of the recent treaties for the open
ing Of Indian land, now Ia out In Todd
county ascertaining what terms can be
made with the Indians for the unal-
lotted land in the only remaining coun-
ty Of the Rosebud and for an additional
county In the Pine Ridge reservation.
The bill for the opening Of these two
counties was introduced at the last
session Of congress, but final action
cannot be taken on the measure until
the consent Of the Indians has been
secured. 1t Is the apparent intention
to have the matter in shape for final
action at the coming session of con-
gress and the formal opening probably
will be scheduled for some time next
summer.

students are expected to attend, these
entertainments are open to the public
Those present last night comprised
the students, largely, with few from

appears that a musical awakening IS
being manifest at the college and in
dications are that the music depart

the end of the term than ever before

was mostly in the high thin air OF the
