NOW WISHES HE
HAD FOUGHT JAPS
RUSSIAN DESERTER ARRESTED
ON NONsUPPORT CHARGES.
He Escaped from Russian Guard, Came
to Minneapolis, Married Woman
Who, He Says, Proposed and Offered
Him Money, Houses and Children -
Now He Repents., .e.@@ - w..

Harry Bronstein, who was in police
court this morning charged with nonsup-
port, was a member of the Kozloyskv
regiment Of the Russian army, but de-
serted at Odessa last April while the re-
serves were on their way to join the
main body of the. regiment in Man
churla. He and four comrades made
their way to Warsaw, across the German
frontier, to America and thence to Min
neapolis.
Bronstein says he had served his three
years and eight months in the barracks,
as is required Of every Russian. He
was then placed on the first reserve list
and allowed to return home. When the
war with Japan broke out his regiment,
which is also known as the One Hun
dred and Twenty-third sharpshooters,
was ordered to the front. Heavy fight
ing reduced the ranks so that it was
necessary to call out the first reserves,
and Bronstein was taken from his home
and put in the barracks at Koursk in
central Russia. Shortly afterward the
reserves were started for the front.
There was a mutiny which reached a
climax at Odessa, and Bronstein and
four companions stole away in the night.
They changed their uniforms for
civilian dress and escaped from the
country, Notwithstanding their descrip.
reward for deserters offered.
Branstein came to Minneapolis three
months ago. He was without money but
found friends in the Russian settlement
in Northeast Minneapolis. There he
met widow who, he says, told hin,
that she had $500 in cash, two houses
and six children. He declares that she
asked him to marry her, and as he was
without money and friends he con
sented.
For time he worked as a peddle1
but could make no money. Last week
he got SIS a week job in a harness
shop. He had worked but four days
he says, when his wife ,swore out war
rant for his arrest, charging him with
nonsupport.
Bronstein was much disguised this
morning when he found that he would
have to lie in jail until Monday anc
says that he would prefer to be with his
comrades, and indeed is sorry that he
deserted,

PRIDE ROBBED MANY OF
GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY

An old pair of trousers of famboy-
ant colored cloth and ancient architec-
ture has been offered to many appi-
cants for clothing at the rooms Of the
Humane society. No matter how i'm
pecunious or needy the applicant might
be, the aggressive pattern of the cloth
has brought about rejection of the
garment. :....
This good taste, sartorial, proved bad
business judgment. Today a young man
entered the Humane society's office and
asked for "pants.' The screechers -
were handed out The man thanked
those in charge and left. An hour later
he returned with S. gold piece. He
explained that he had found it tucked
away in a corner in a pocket of the
offensive trousers and wanted to return
it. The cash was accepted.

MAKES RARE SORT OF
PLEA FOR A CITY JOB

A remarkable petition was presented
to the council last night by T. j. A:
Gluba, who informed the council that IT
a good workman was needed. in any
city department he could be found at
720 Dupont avenue N,
The petition was elegantly worded,
and at the bottom were attached two
photographs of the applicant. If it
pleases the general aldermanic intelli-
gence, he says, he would like work inn
mediately, as it is very unpleasant. to
be idle. He thought the ever
municipal vineyard ought to have room
for him, as he had worked for the city
faithfully before.
Mr.. Gluba did not say what kind of
employment he preferred, but left that
also to the "aldermanic intelligence.
His letter was referred to the commit
tee on Bethany home.

FIRE FOLLOWS ASSAULT.
Rhinelander New North

The Rhinelander Boat Comp
any's plant IN the south end OF
the city was destroyed by fire
shortly after midnight Monday.
Previously, Frank Sayner the
proprietor was attacked by
thugs, who after assaulting hing
relieved him of his watch, about
ninety dollars in. money and
three hundred dollars in checks.
Mr.. Sayner was detained in the
plant at an unusually late hour
doing inventory work. While
on the second floor a noise from
below. attracted his attention
and with a lamp in his hand
started down the stairway to
investigate while on the bot
tom step be was hit on the head
with what he thinks was sand
bag. The blow rendered hum
unconscious. He was found
some time later, within a few
feet of the factory, a handker-
chief bound about his mouth and
his pockets empty. Mr.. Sayner
thinks that the handkerchief had
been soaked In chloroform.
When attacted the lamp which
he carried fell on the floor and it
was from this that the fire org
mated. Mr.. Sayner had several
new boats in the building. at the
time which were DESTROYED.
After dragging their victim out
side the robbers locked the door
of the factory and the flames had
made considerable Roadway be
fore an entrance could be forced
into the building.
The loss was. about $4,000.

bers had made their escaye. How

in hiding near the city.

Not a Fade River Ght.

There once lived a girl who
was a great .theorist. She had
theories on housekeeping, diet,
education, dress and love, which
she took great delight in ,ex-
pounding to her family and
friends.
Now, it so happened that, dur
ing so.jou'n in a distant city,
she met a very nice young man
who became enamored Of her
and whose affection she was in
.clined to return. But as she had
pet theory concerning engage
ments, she withheld a de fnit
answer to his .entreaties that
she become his wife, and said:
although I love you, | can
not answer you in the af1rma-
&5ive until your affection for me
has undergone test. From
vhat yop haye told me of your
self, you have associated but
little with girls. How, then,
can you be sure that your love
for me will endure? Therefore
leave M for one month";. during
which time no communication
shall pass between US; associate
with other girls as much as
possible, and if at the end ofthat
time your heart is still true to
me | shull become yours for all
time"
The young man protested and
pleaded With all the ardor OF
aove, but the theorist remained
firm in her decision. Finally the
dover bade her a reluctant adieu,
and was off to keep compact.
The weeks went by and the
end Of the month came. The
theorist who by this time, it
must be confessed, had become
exceedingly Lonesome for the
nice young man, attired herself
in her most becoming frock and
awaited with futtering heart
his coming.
A bounding step was heard on
the porch. The theorist sprang
to the door. A messenger boy
handed her a telegram. 1t read:
