Sioux Falls.-F1Orence Purdee, aged
3, daughter of a prominent resident OF
Platte, was shot and instantly killed as
the result of the accidental discharge
of a shotgun in the hands of her broth
er Willie, aged II. The father had
loaded the shotgun for the purpose OF
shooting at a hawk which had been
lowering over the yard, but the hawk
proved to be out of range, and he
placed the weapon in a bedroom, leav-
ing it loaded SO there would be no de-
lay If the hawk again appeared. The
little boy found the weapon, and it
was accidently discharged while his
sister was not over six feet from the
muzzle. The entire charge struck her
in the neck, and chin, her chin being
practically blown off. She lived but q
few moments.

THOSE INDIAN CASES.
Decision on Jurisdiction of State ana
Federal Courts,

DECISION on JURISDICTION or state ano
Federal Courts.
Sio TX Falls.-Judge Robert B. Trip.
presiding judge of the First judicial
circuit, has rendered an important
jurisdiction as between the state and
United States courts in cases of In
dams accused of crimes committed on
Indian allotments.
Judge Trip decides, in substance,
to the effect that only the United
States court for South Dakota has
jurisdiction in such cases, and that
the county authorities, in the event
OF a crime being committed by Indians
on an Indian allotment, are powerless
to make arrests or take other action
in the case.
This decision will, it is believed, be
pleasing to the United States authori-
ties for South Dakota. who will not
hesitate to take action in such cases,
but it will not be entirely satisfactory
to the county authorities of counties
which contain a large Indian popula.
ton, such as Charles Mix county. AL
ready opposition to the decision has
developed in Charles Mix county, and
it is stated that without doubt an ap-
peal will be taken to the state supreme
court from the decision OF Judge
Trip.
While the counties would be saved
expense if the federal court exercised
exclusive jurisdiction over Indians ac-
cused of crimes committed on Indian
allotments, the county authorities be-
lieve they should have power to arrest
and prosecute such offenders, mas
much as the Indians are permitted to
vote to send their children to the diff
ferent township schools and exercise
other rights the same as if they were
white men.

: A FINE NlGHT-cAP
The Best Thing In the World to Go to
Bed and Sleep On.

my wife and l find that 4 teaspoon
fuls Of Grape-Nuts and a cup Of hot
milk, or some cream, with it, makes
the finest night-cap in the world" says
an Allegheny, Pa, man.
1--WE go to sleep as sOo as we strike
the bed, and slumber like babies till
rising time in the morning.
1T is about 3 years now since we be-
gan to use Grape-Nuts food, and we
always have it for breakfast and be-
fore retiring and sometimes for lunch.
I was sc sick from what the doctors
called acute indigestion and brain flag
before l began to use Grape-Nuts that l
could neither eat, sleep nor work with
any comfort.
II was afflicted at the same time
with the most intense pains, accompan-
led by a racking headache and back
ache, every time l tried to a any
thing. Notwithstanding an unusual
pressure from my professional duties,
I was compelled for a time to give up
my work altogether.
"Then | put myself on a diet OF
Grape-Nuts and cream alone. with an
occasional cup of Postum as a unne
up. and sometimes a little dry toast. I
assure you that In less than a week I
felt like a new man; l had gained six
pounds in weight, could sleep well
and think well.
The good work went on, and I was
soon ready to return to business. and
have been hard at it, and enjoying It
ever since.
Command me at any time any one
enquiries as to the merits Of Grape
Nuts. You will find me always ready
