OBITUARY. LaLpANT.

Miss Irene LaPlant, whose iii.
ness was noted last week, passed
away last Wednesday, Jan. x.
1915, IN Minneapolis, MIMI. after
an illness of n few days, With
! pneumonia.
The deceased was born ON Cluev
emo River Reservation, South Da-
ISotn. ON Virgin creek. near what
IS now the town of La
PIant, April 9th, 1899, and
had attended the Agency schools
previous to going to Min
neapolis last September TO attend
the Hoy Angels Academy. In
both schools she WAS studious and
thoughtful and held in high
esteem by her schoolmatcs, as we'll
as by all others who had the good
fortune to become acquainted with
her.
She had been at home to spend
the holidays with her parents, and
returned to her studies again, with
bright prospects of future joys
and happiness; now, while these
have been denied to her on earth,
the Heavenly Father has trans!at-
ell her to His Heavenly kingdom,
where al! her plans and aims will
undoubtedly be realized to a fuller
and greater extent.
The remains arrived at Chey-
cnne Agency on Friday evening.
and the funeral was held on
Sunday, at II a. M, at
t h Catholic church, which
was filled with a deeply affected
audience, including a large mum
Der of the older pupils from the
boarding school and several others
from Forest City.
The services we're conducted by
Rev. Fathers Vogcl, of Eagle
Butte, and Harrington, Pierre,
assisted by a choir of some ten
singers. FIR. Vogel commenced
his remarks by quoting the text,
"But l say unto you, that every
idle word that men shall speak,
they shall. give account thereof in
the day of judgment''(M Matt 1880
and then gage an explanation OF
the meaning of the Mass. as cele-
brated by the Catholic Church, and
also of the prayers for the dead.
He vas followed by FIR. Harring.
ton, who paid a heartfelt tribute
to the memory of the deceased, as
one for whom it was a pleasure
for him to assist in the funeral
service. because of her having re-
ceived the sacraments and benefits
of the Church. FIR. Harrington's
eloquent sermon had many golden
nuggets of truth in it, which viii
undoubtedly linger long in the
minds and hearts Of those who
heard him, and be a source of con.
tentment and satisfaction to the
sorrowing relatives.
The singing was opened by the
rendition Of .sPray for the Dead
with Miss Nellie Peck as organist,
the next one being a vocal solo by
Mrs. Hiram Clark, entitled Face

author, that before the advent of her
fourth child the empress decided that
she would have HER to herself-be
to her what other mothers are to
their daughters. Therefore she de-
cided to take this Marie Valerie away
from the court and bring her up as
any natural daughter. This de-
clares the countess, ''is why was
brought up as was, away from the
COURT"
And now for question Number Two:
Why does Emperor Francis Joseph
refuse to recognize me?"
ct is NOT he who does this" she
says, 'but the court of Vienna! 1T
looks upon me as dangerous. Having
been brought up by my mother in the
free and broad-minded ideas of mod
ern education, l must, suppose, be
regarded as a menace to the tradi-
tons of the imperial house and there
fore recognition must be absolutely
denied to met"
The Countess Zanardi Landi was
born in 1882, in chateau in Nor
mandy. Emperor Franz Joseph of
Austria came to see his wife secretly
there, she says; the court at Vienna
being told that the empress was in
France recuperating from an acct
dent that had occurred while she was
riding. Some little time after her
birth she was taken to Vienna by her
mother and installed in the home of, |
? family named Kaiser, friends of the
physician. There she was born
again"-to Mrs. Kaiser-she says,
through trickery practiced by a doc
tor, nurse and a court diplomat.
Then when she was a little less
than 9, the countess says, she was in
stalled in a court of her own at
Laintz! Finally, through the talka-
tiveness of an old servant, the count |
ess one day began to realize who she |
was. When the old woman finished
her disclosures, the countess saws:

father must be the emperor! Why
had never seen him? What was the
meaning of all this secrecy? 1t my
parents were the emperor and the
empress, must be princess!" :
When next the countess saw her
mother she piled her with all these
questions. "She grew red and then
pale" she says. "She answered sadly
finally, That, darling, is sad story
which you are too young to hear.
But 1 will tell you as much as l
can now" rs.
land you came she went on"
writes the countess, land wanted
you entirely for my own. So"
Thus does the Countess Zanardi tell
of this historical interview.
The self-styled Archduchess Marie
was 16 years of age when her mother
was assassinated She declares that
four years later, discouraged, she
permitted herself to be forced into
marriage with Richard Kuehnelt, a
commoner. AS minor she turned
over to him her dowry of 100000,
which her mother had left her.
After their two children we're born
the husband, by speculation, lost the
fortune. Heavily in debt they left
Austria and went to Montreal, Can
ada. The husband could not support
the family, she said, and they pro-
posed separation. Then the Coun-
tess Zanardi Landi took her children,
went to Vancouver and found work
as cook in hotel to support them!
