6IOUX FALLS , 3. D. , Nov. 23. ( Special. )
in reply to the assertions of Now York
jupcis that IMkotii divorces are Invalid In
eovcral of the states tlio various judges of
the circuit courts of the state liavo explained
why ttils IB true In certain cases. The valid
ity of a Dakota dlvorc * ; llko that of a dl-
, vorco obtained In any other state , depends
Mpon the honesty of the pirty seeking relief.
It fraud Is used ; It witnesses pcrjuro them-
eclves ; If falco testimony is given and forged
jiapcra presented , of course any state would
nullify such a divorce , nut there Is no
> place In the union whcro the courts could
act quicker In undoing such a wrong an ]
punishing the turtles thereto than right hero
In South Dakota.
The validity of divorces obtained In South
( Dakota has never been 'questioned where
rtho plaintiff has acted In good faith. All the
elates of the union recognize the \altdlty of
South Dakota decrees ivliero the defendant
lias been served with process and whcro an
appearance has been made. A divorce ob
tained by default Is contcstablo at any time
oven In this atatc , .where . It Is shown that
the ulletratlons were untrue or tliat the
plaintiff know of the whereabouts of the de
fendant. Juigo ] Smith of the first circuit re
cently set atlilo a dlvorco which was ob-
talne.l by forged acknowledgment of process
anil l.as Issued a warrant for the arrest of
the party , but he has gone to Canada. Judge
Smith seiya there Is no uiuse for alarm over
divorces procured In good faith here. If
it ho parties to a dlvorco practice deception ,
c.hlch Is very rare , and Hie validity of the
tlecrco waa contested In another state , It
would undoubtedly be set aside. Judge Jones
of the sccoml circuit confirms the state
ment of Judge Smith ; as also docs Judge
Amliows of the null circuit and Judge Cuffy
of the sixth. Now York courts have repeat
edly afllrmod the vulldlty of South Dakota
decrees properly obtained. It was upon the
odrlco of learned New York lawyers that
Mia. Yzanga , Mrs. Mlnton Mrs. Blalne , Mrs.
Do Stours and a hundred others cauio to
South Dakota for relief ; and none of these
decrees have ever been contested , because
process was served and appearance made In
ovcry case. i
SERVICE A NECESSITY.
The common nrror made by people seeking
o. dlvorco hero Is that It may bo obtained
with little or no effort end without the
formality of notifying the recreant spoiibe ,
and It Is no exaggeration to say that 25 per
cent of those who come hero attempt to 1m-
uoso uoon their attorneys In presenting their
canes , which only odds to their complica
tions. In the absence of service of process
the law provides a line of procedure In default -
fault , but very few attorneys llko to take
mirli a case , anil the Judges take plenty of
tlrao for developments before granting a de
cree. When this I1 ? done , however , they not
onlv stand ready , but are anxious to sot
nsldo a decree of this kind upon a showing
or fr'aud or'tola ? , testimony. . In no case < lees
lionosty pay BB well as In obtaining a South
l > .ikt > la divorce.
There Is now ( leading before the court of
tnucals In Now York a case which Involves
thn legality of a North Dakota divorce. The
< MBi > . nnlmnortant In Itself , ia extremely Im
portant as Involving the legality of a dlvorco
seemed In ono state , before the courts of
another , and as Involving the legitimacy of
children , thn lights of property , the good
name at pectilo who have been divorced In
western states end remarried In Now York
and other kindred , matters.
In this caae a vlfo left New York and
went to North Dakota , where , after a resi
dence of three months , she secured a. dlvorco
Notice was ocrved on the defendant by pub
lication. It dona not appear even that ho had
actual notice that the application had been
made and bo was represented neither por-
Bocially nor by attorney at the hearing. After
the divorce was granted the plaintiff re
turned to New York and remarried , separat
ing from her second husband In six months.
After his death shu claimed the widow's
nharo of the estate. The Urooklyn surrogate ,
Ixiforo whom the will was probated , rule !
trat Bho was not the lawful widow of the
ilccM/sed. / This ruling was affirmed by the
pppellate division of the supreme court and
IE now pending before the court of appeal j.
The decision In the supremcn court was
'brsed ' on the ground that while the dlvorco
might bo legal and binding In North Dakota
nnd while a romarrlago there might bo roc-
ngnlzi'd by the courts of other states , the
divorce was not binding In Now York , nnd
her marriage was thorefo-o null and told.
The decision of the court of appeals will
bo awaited with much Interest OB securing
the judgment of a high tribunal on a ques
tion which affects many hundreds of people
and probably many millions of dollars. The
old theory was that n dlvorco secured In ono
Eta to was good In every other stnto just as
n marriage1 Is generally recognized to bo.
Tnu divorce colonies of the west , however.
Involving as they do so much deception , bad
faith , and often so much Injustice , have se
riously tempted the courts to abandon this
old ruling.

Rral , organic heart dleoaso Is Incurable * ,
but not one cseo In a hundred of heart trouble
Is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble
arid poor illgititton Is because both orgaiui
n'o controlled by branches of the sumo great
nerves , the Sympathetic and Pncuinogastrlc.
In another way also the heart Is affected
by that form of poor digestion , which causes
KSH and fermentation from half digested
food : there 1s a feeling of oppression and
liravlnerri In the chest caused by pressure of
the distended etoruach on the heart and
lungs , Interfering with their action ; hence
tt-ltes palpitation and short breath.
1'oor digestion also poisons the blood ,
niakco It thin and watery , which Irritates
and weakens the heart.
Thu most sensible treatment for heart
troubles la to Improve the digestion and to
Insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can best bo done by tbe regular use
alter meals , of some safe , pleasant and ef >
fqctlvo and digestive preparation , like Stu
art's Dyspepsia Tablets , which may bo found
at most drug stores and which contain valua
ble , harmless digestive clemeute , In & pleas
ant. convenient form.
It Is cafeto say that the regular , persis
tent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
meal time will cure any form of stomach
trouble , except cancer of stomach.
Full sized packages of the tablets sold by
druggists at 60 cents.
Little book on stomach troubles mailed

HOT SPRINGS , 8. D. , Nov. 23. ( Special. )
Since Judge C.irlan rendered the decision that
the United States courts simply have Juris
diction over full blooded Indians on the reser
vation It has bcon a standing qucstlcu with
the judges of the circuit courts of the state
what their jurisdiction In the matter Is. U
Is generally understood now that all criminal
canes , the crlmo for which lies been enactcJ
on the reservation by persons except full
bloods , rnudt bo tried by the court of the
nearest organized county. There has been
cccisldcrablo discussion among the legal tal
ent of the Hills nbcthcr the state has juris
diction In Its courts to try the cueo of John
Hondo for kilting Hen Tlbbctts on the Sioux
reservation last July. The question came be
fore Judge Gardner at tbu circuit court In
thla city last week and after duo consldcra-
j I lion the judge decided that the case could
bo tried by the state. Dotb men In the case
are whlto men. The present case before
Fall Ktvor county court Is the first to be
tried under the now decision. In order to
defray the largo expense that the county will I
bo put to , the new law enacted last winter
by the legislature , giving the organized coun
ties power to assess and tax the unorganized
counties , will bo put In force.

PIEURE , S. D. , Nov. 23. ( Special. ) There
Is no reason why the cattle on the range
should not come through In good shape this
winter. They start In In the best possible
shape. Feed on the range was never In bet
tor condition , nnd the late rains left enough
water In the streams and sloughs to furnish
water until the snows como. The winter Is
at least a month later than last yoar.wlth
all Indications of a continuance- the open
weather for some tlmo yet. The deaths on
the ranees this season have been the lightest
over known. With plenty of chnlce feed and
water the stock Is getting In bettor shape to
stand winter storms every day , and there
Is no reason why they should not como out In
good shape In the spring.

The total for twenty days reads $1,009,332.93 ,
