Although the South Dakota divorce Indus
try Is not very actlxe t prestnt , the SlouT
Indium who formerly paid no attention to
laws relating to marriage or divorce , are now
reaching the conclusion that If they wish
to be strictly "up-to date" they must , when
unable to llxe peaceably with their htiHbands
or wlxea , resort to thu divorce court and
procure separations In white man style. In
this they arc encouraged by the Indian
bureau and by the Indian agents , the policy
of the government being that xvhen an In
dian and his wife cannot agree they must
eek lawful relief In a divorce court Instead
of rtlmpl ) sepirattng and marr > ing In the lax
faahioti prevalent among the Sioux up to a
fexv jcars ago At a recent tcim of court
In this city three divorce casen , In which
members ot the Sioux nation were principals ,
were trle-l before Judge Smith C C. Mortow
j of thl. ? city being the attorney In each of
( the case * . The cases attncted great Inter
est The one having the most lomantlc fi.v
turtu was tint of Appearing IJarth against

married at Crow Ctook agenc > by United

Both belong to the Crow Cieek reservation
All went smoothly In the First Born limiHe-
hold until about two jpirs ago xxhen a
jjung Sioux beauty named Good Natured
Fool Hear appeared on the rtcene The ted
kiiined beauty had been attending an cistern
Indian chcol. and had returnel to the res
ervation to pass her xacatlon. when she and
Plirtt Born met and formtd u warm attach
ment for each other Naturally the jeal
ousy of the patient wife waL < aroused. Then
the recreant hii'hand and the xoung char
mer decided to elope They fled to Yaukton
agency but x ere followed by Indian police ,
who had been put on their trail by the de-
se-ted wife , and forcibly can led back to
Crow Creek agency , whpre they were thrown
In Jail. After remaining In Jail for a time

Stuart , of thj >
city , agalnn Fim Born , charging him with

served by a deputy marshal. At the pre
liminary e.xamln itlon the attorney for the
accuse 1 maintained that the United States
was without jurisdiction In the matter , as
the man-iage. ccremon > constituting the act
of bigamy was performed outside the Crow
Creek reservation , and therefore only sub
ject , to tlie state statutes. The commissioner
concurred In this xirwand First Born was
released HU laxvful wife then instituted
I'ivorco proceedings against him , and won

nlfi-ant name of William Trulhteller
Nexev Ml"es and Her Cane were the prln-
cipls In another of the cases They were

together until the spring of Uiat jear. when
after numerous affiays they epjrited On
