E.ATTEMPT TO WRECK "A
Y PASSENGER TRAIN. l.. +
John Iverson Shot In the Leg.

Last Sunday night as John Iver-
son was returning from the country
where he had been to make oollec-
tims, and when short distance this
side of Sioux Falls Junction, he
heard someone pounding and prying
atf the railroad track. He thought
nothing of it, supposing it to be SEC
ton hands at work repairing a bad
place. Suddenly he was command:
ed to halt, which he promptly did,
and then started to run, whereupon
two shots were fired-one from each
| side of the track. One shot took ef-
feet in the fleshy part of his right leg,
and the other passed through the
Icrpwn of his hat. The latter shot
ppbably dazed him as it was fired
frbm' close range. After the shots
were fired he remembers nothing that
transpired for some time. After re-
rgaining consciousness he crawled
back to the junction and aroused the
operator Gt was about II o'clock) and
gave an account of his experience.
He found that he had "fell among
thieves, stripped of his raiment, and
left for dead"
Iverson had on his person $4,000
cash and some valuable papers.
Word was at once communicated to
Worthington, and Roadmaster Man
ming, with Sheriff Thorn and others
set out in the direction of the juno
tion. Meanwhile word was received
y! |. h = Until
further orders. Soon after word was
received from the train dispatcher to
proceed slowly to Worthington.
Iverson was taken on board the
train and brought to town and COM
fortably located at the Western
house. DR.. Dolan was summoned and
dressed his wounds and made him as
easy as possible.
An examination of the track show
ed that the plates had been removed,
several spikes drawn and the rails
spread trif1e. No. 2, running slow
ly, did not experience any difficulty
from the unsafe condition of the
track.
Many theories have been advanced
regarding the matter, the most plaus
ible is that an attempt had been
made to wreck passenger train No. 2,
but as the robbers were engaged at
the work of removing a rail, they
We're unexpectedly surprised by a
lone footman whom they feared
would give the alarm soon, if allowed
to go. Undoubtedly they attempted
to kill him, as the bullet thro his hat
would indicate that they meant muir
der. Their unexpected good luck in
securing such large booty probably
satisfied them and they took the cash
and fled. The next morning Iver-
sons watch and two empty pocket
books were found by Sheriff Thorn
near the scene of the robbery.
As we go to press we learn that the
officials of the Railroad company are
in possession of important facts
which may lead to the arrest and con-
viction of the guilty parties.

HAS POSITIVE VIEWS.

Senator Mitchell Of Oregon Talks Of ths
Hawaiian Matter.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15.-Senator
John II. Mitchell Of Oregon has arrived
in the city from Washington. He has
positive views on the Hawaiian question.
In an interview he said he thought the
government might be- better employed
than in trying to resuscitate the defunct
monarchy in Hawaii. The news Of
President Cleveland's intentions had
astounded him and in his opinion the
recognition of the effete monarchy is q
decided mistake. On general American
principles, he said, the purpose was
weak one, and represented a backing
down ON the part of the United States
government. The senator also expressed
himself as disgusted with the attitude
Of the government in regard to anti
Chinese legislation. ,4#

A Pastor to Resign.

At the close of the service at the Church
of the Messiah, yesterday morning, the
pastor. Rev. G.. I. KERN, asked the mem
bers of the parish to attend meeting to
be held in the vestry this evening, at
which he would read his resignation for
them to vote upon. He said the church
which called him last December, and
whose call he at that time declined, had
recently made more urgent call, and
while last year the Church of the Messiah
needed him the most, he was convinced
that at the present time the circumstances
were reversed, and that he could do the
most good to the cause of Universalism
by accepting the call to Charlestown.
The resignation is said to be final. The
Church of the Messiah is in most pros
porous condition at the present time and
all the parishioners, without exception,
will hear with sorrow of the resignation
of the pastor whom they all love.
