@HOMESTEADER Wins
AWARDED VALUABLE LAND
NEAR PRINGLE BY
STATE COURT.

Hot Springs, Aug. 5.-A tract of
valuable land near Pringle, which
has been in litigation since 1902, has
by a decision just rendered by the
state supreme court, been awarded to
the homestead claimant, the opposing
claimant having alleged that the
ground was placer mining ground
and subject to entry under the min
ing laws instead of the homestead
laws.
The ease is one of the most notable
of its kind ever before the courts of
the state. The plaintif in the action
just decided by the supreme court
was Hans Olson, the defendants be
ing Frank l.. Kirk, ct al. The Kinks
have been in possession of the tract
of land since 1894, maintaining since
that time that il was a placer mine.
Olson claimed it as a homestead.
After the litigation commenced in
1902 the rights of the various par
ties were considered by the officers
of the United States land office al
Rapid City. ultimately reaching the
commissioner of the general land of
fee and the secretary of the interior
on more than n occasion.
The decisions of these tribunals
were all adverse to the Kinks, but
they refused to give up possession of
the land. Suit then was started by
Olson to enforce his rights. In the
state circuit court judgment was en-
tered in favor of Olson. The Kinks
appealed from this judgment, and
now the state supreme court has af-
firmed the judgment OF the circuit
court and the land goes to the home
stead claimant. Olson by the decision
also cur damages from the Kinks
on account of having been deprived
of possession of the land in controv-
ersy.

harm or good by his example than
could possibly be done in a larger
city. Poor salaries bring Door min
listers and to overcome this poor sal
airy the boara of missions must have
sufficient means to hire better men.
To my mind the place for the poor
men is in the large cities and the
places they now Occupy should be fill
ed by the better class of men. This
is one of the chief problems confront
ing the church in this state"
He then showed how in the last
few years rural life in the state had
been revolutionized by the telephone
and the automobile and how as a re-
suit the country churches had SUIT
fered. Twenty years ago." Bishop
Biller said, the church was the so
cial center of the community. Today,
with the automobile, instead of going
to the church for the evening, the
farmer goes into the city and spends
the evening at the movies. 1t will be
n of the greatest tasks of the
church TO act as a means of present
ing Christ to the people in order that
they may give more of their time to
him and his work"

SUDDEN Death
JOHN NJ. SPICER DIED OF HEART
FAILURE.

way between the city and Lake Mad
ison, at the point known as Spicer
hill. died about IL o'clock this fore
noon of heart failure. Deceased was

The devil
MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 81, AT
OPERA HOUSE IN TOWN.

Many admirers of the Broadway
Players will be delighted TO know
that this excellent organization will
appear in the opera house in town
Monday evening next, presenting on
that occasion a magnificent produc-
ton of Franz Molnar's sensational
dramatic triumph, The Devil. In this
powerful dramatic offering the au-
thor, by a skillful bit of character
drawing, depicts with vivid effect the
subtle influence of evil that sur
rounds us in everyday life and proves
again and again the old. but ever
new, truth that 1.-The spirit is willing.
but the flesh is weak" 1t is a drama
of intense moments and written in
the most brilliant manner. 1t drives
its stern message to the heart with
unerring effect. Each of the talented
members of the Broadway Players
essay roles in The Devil that demand
the very essence of dramatic acting,
and it is certain that a performance
of extraordinary merit awaits theater
goers at the opera house Monday
evening next.

WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Aug Especial: Great
Britain's replies TO the American
notes concerning the detention of
neutral commerce and declining to
be bound by British orders in council
have been made public. With regard
to neutral commerce, Great Britain
refuses to accept the contentious of
the United States and ~justifes the
British orders in council as being
wholly within international law.
Great Britain, it is declared, will
continue to apply the orders in coun-
Gil, but with every effort to avoid
embarrassment to neutrals.
1t is denied that international law
is violated by the blockading of neu-
trail ports to cut off an enemy's COM
merce with foreign countries. and
Great Britain declines to allow the
free passage of goods originating in
Germany and territory under German
control.
Although the Germans and Aus
TRANS along the great battle front in
Poland are declared by Berlin to be
continuing their maneuvers, having
i'm view the development of Warsaw,
the governor general of the Polish
capital was at his post as recently as
Sunday last, and military circles
there were of the belief that if the
Russian line held a week longer the
city would never be evacuated.
Further advances for the Germans
and Austrians along the eastern bank
of the Vistula in the Ivangorod and
Nowo Alexandria sections and in the
Chelm-Lublin region to the southeast
are recorded by Berlin. despite the
fact that the Russians at various
points continue to offer stubborn re-
s~istance to the advance. A large
number of prisoners and numerous
cannon have been taken by the leu
tonic troops.
On the western line, in France and
Belgium, there have been several in
fantry attacks, hand grenade fighting
and sapping operations. in which the
official reports of Berlin and Paris
are at variance. Berlin asserts that
in the Argonne French trenches were
captured and that in Champagne the
borders of craters caused by mine ex-
plOSlOhS NtIt ". TIE hCi~
mans. Paris asserts that the mine
explosions did no damage to the
French trenches.
Bad weather is ~hindering the OPP
erations on the Austro-Italian fronts.
Unofficial Italian advices are to the
effect that the Italians continue to
make progress near Roverto, in the
Arsa valley, and on the Carso plateau.
In the Cargo region ii is asserted that
an Austrian regiment was virtually

port that an allied attack near Ari
Burnu was put down with very heavy
