Supreme Court Hears Mandamus
Proceedings Against State
Auditor.

Pierre, May 19.-If the supreme
court of South Dakota may not have
jurisdiction in a case in which its
members are personally interested,
who, pray tell, is to conduct such a
hearing?
That was the question put to coun-
sci for State Auditor Handlin in the
mandamus proceeding brought by
Justice Mccoy of the supreme court,
against the auditor to show cause
why members of the supreme court
should not enjoy their April $50 ex-
pense account. 1t followed the con-
tention of Handlin's counsel that
members of the supreme court were
not competent to conduct a hearing
in which they had personal interest.
Justice Mccoy did not sit in the
hearing.
After arguments the court took the
case under advisement and will an
nounce its decision at a later day.
Handlin recently notified the SUI
preme court judges he would not

LOVE DISAPPOINTMENT
Death of Wealthy Hermit i'm Hamlin
County.

Hayti, May 19.-Farm land and
personal property to the value of
more than $4,000 is awaiting a
claimant as the result of the recent
sudden death of John Cannon, a pio-
neer settler of Hamlin county, a bach
elor, who was found dead in the mod
est little cabin on one of his farms.
The county authorities, after a search
for relatives of the dead man, located
a sister in New York city, and the
property left by Cannon doubtless
will go to her.
The larger portion of the estate of
the dead man consists of two quarter
sections of farm land-320 acres
which is valued at not less than $40
an acre.
The dead man was something of a
hermit. During the more than thirty
years that he resided in Hamlin coun-
ty he was very ~secretive, never allud-
ing to his relatives or other family
matters or mingling with any of his
neighbors. 1t is believed that in early
life he was disappointed in love and
decided to strive to forget the pas
on a homestead.

Bohac, the retiring treasurer. When
the first quarterly balance was struck
April /, Mr.. McBurney discovered
that the balance had been forced. and
he became suspicious that there
might be previous irregularities in

appears TO be that 1t will be found
the irregularities are the result of
carelessness and neglect of duty due

The work has always been popular

Many Of the women and girls were

that It takes years Of work to make

In previous courses some women
