of the town of North Stonington The situation presented to the court was mos unusual in that the will was made over 45 years ago and also hat Mrs. Brown died over 40 years ago, in 1875, at North Stonington, and her will was immediately thereafter ad- mitted to probate by the probate court for the district of North Ston- ington.
 The real basis for legal acion at the present time arose out of the fact that in the second paragraph of her will her daughter. Nelanna, with a remain der over her children. . and in case she died without issue, then it was to be equally divided between two other daughters, Ellen Brown and Celipha Brown Thompson of Providence or the survivors of them.
 Nelanna became a telegraph oper- ator at the Westerly railroad station and later lived in Arctic. and about 1879 wrote her brother, Nelson A. Brown, that if certain litigation went against her she would never return home. She was later reported in Cal ifornia, but for over 37 years. in spite of dilligent search. she has never been heard of.
 Ellen died in 1891 and Thomas E. administrator. The question pre-
 senteds before the court was whether Nelanna. was dead, and if dead, the date of her death. and whether she left issue surviving her.
 The case turned on presumptions of law, in which many western cases were cited in the trial. judge Burpee ruled that Nelanna Brown died in 1886 and without issue, and ordered the fund paid as follows: One-half to Cilipha Brown Thompson of Provi- dence and one-ha1f to Thomas E.. Ty,,o ady jet, at0r 04. of Ellen Brown. The trust fund. now under the Jurisdiction of the North Stonington court. will be paid out in accordance with this opinion

LAW PROVIDING
$40 ACRE FARM

The long expected government rul-
ing, which will provide $40 acre home
steads in certain localities and under
certain conditions, has at last passed
both branches of Congress and is now
awaiting the signature of President
Wilson. Numerous bills with this
provision have been up for considera-
tion within the past two years but up
to the present time proper measure
was not drafted which could be made
to apply generally.
w. B. Dickson, register, and E. j.
Hughes, receiver, of the local land Of
fee, have received a great many in
quiries recently regarding the new
measure but they will not be able to
give out any information until the
text of the law has been officially re-
ceived. It is understood, however,
that large portion of the vacant
land in the Dickinson district will
come under the new ruling, particu-
larly the region along the Missouri
river and in the Bad Lands, adjacent.
During the past year or since the en-
larged homestead entry act went into
effect, great deal of this land has
been taken up but it may be pos
sible under the new Ferris law for
the entrymen to make additional en-
try to adjacent vacant land.

MP. ROUND HOUSE
NOW BEING REBUILT

Work was started late last week on
the new round house building to re-
place that portion of the building
which was recently destroyed by fire.
The old rubbish has been cleared
away and concrete and brick construc-
ton started on the foundations and
side walls. The new portion of the
building will have brick walls between
the stalls in order to make the
building as near fire proof as pos
sible. The carpenters are framing
the extra heavy timbers which go into
the roof supports and in spite Of
the severe winter weather the work is
progressing as rapidly as possible.
#1t will be about two months before
the new building is completed.
The approximate cost Of the new
portion Of the building will be $4,000
and will be Of sufficient size to house
ten Of the large type engines. The
new portion Of the round house under
construction prior to the fire is COM
pleted and has been put into use.

YOUNG JOY RIDER
SOON APPREHENDED

Michael Scherich, son of Mrs. Anna
Scherich, who lives in the country
south of Richardton, had an expert
ence last week which has landed him
into the clutches of the law. The
young man, who is just past the legal
age, went to Glendive last week and
purchased a new Ford car, paying
for it with check drawn on a Glen
dive bank under an assumed name.
Immediately after getting possession
of his new purchase, so it is alleged,
he started for his home. When he
reached Wibaux he needed gasoline
and his check book and the assumed
name came in handy again. At Bel
field he was SO jubilant over his new
possession that he ran into and dam
aged a Studebaker car and his check
book and assumed name repaired the
damage-temporarily.
For several days past he had been
JOY riding in the vicinity of his home
until few days ago when Sheriff
Trucible came down from Glendive
and, together with Sheriff Geo. j.
Brown, went to the farm home and
took the car and the joy rider back to
the Montana city. It is doubtful if the
young man gets out of the escapade
very easily. rs

PAROCHIAL SCHOOL
AT new HRADEC

Father H. 3. Tomanec, who recently
took charge Of the parish at New
Hradec, is interesting the people of
that community in a parochial school
and was in the city on Wednesday
interviewing contractors regarding
building matters. A meeting was
held at Now Hradcc few Gays ago
to discuss the possibility of such
school and a large number of resi-
dents Of that community have signi-
fled their willingness to lend support
to the project. There are about $50
families in the parish and it is
planned to maintain a school suitable
for the needs of 200 scholars by as
sessing each family a proportionate
share of the running expenses, the
necessary supplies to be furnished
from the farm homes. There has al
ready been satisfactory amount Of
money subscribed to the building
fund to warrant further investigation
into the matter and plans of struc-
ture to cost in the neighborhood of
$4,000 will be considered
Rev. FIR. Tomanek, who comes from
a German-Hungarian parish in Phila-
delphia, thinks there will be no
trouble in raising the funds and also
that the plan to maintain the school
will work out very satisfactorily. He
also stated that the land owners at
New Hradec would dispose of por-
ton of their holdings for building
lots if residence or business locations
are desired.
Present plans are to start the
building in the early spring and
when completed the school will start
in with five competent teachers.
