lilly and in some places Is tro wet to be
worked

city reports have been received from
fortN-three out of fitfy-three organized
counties in the state showing that in
the county conventions of Tuesday the
insurgents secured the senatorial and
legislative nominees in thirty-three
counties and the stalwarts secured the
nominees in twelve counties. Eight
counties have not been heard from in
the detail of giving nominees, but
,neager reports show that in most of the
eight unreported counties resolutions

gents and indorsing Senator Gamble
for reelection.

ents are as follows: Aurora. Beadle,

EMPLOYING JAPANESE LABOR.
Soldiers From Cyama's Army Work as
Hard IS They Einht

Watertown, S. D., Sept 22.-Fifty
Japanese have been added to Water
towns population by the Cisco, Rock
Island and Pacific railway and are now
at work on that line of road out of
this city, while 100 more will soon be
at work for the company between Wa
tertown and Ellsworth
Japanese labor is an experiment with
this corporation, which has heretofore
employed almost exclusively in theila
grading gangs Assyrians, Greeks or
Italians. classed under the general head
of "DagCes." Several hundred of this
class of iaborers have been employed
by the Minneapolis and ST. Louis in
this city in connection With that roads
extension and the assembling of ma
terial for it. West of the Missouri the
Northwestern and Milwaukee lines are
using gangs of Indians on their eX-
tensions. But the Rock Island crews
will beat them all with their Japanese
laborers direct from the army of the
great Marshal Oyama.
When one notices the swiftness and
accuracy with which the Japanese
work it can easily be understood how
1t was possible for them to carry out
the great engineering feats in the
campaign against the Russians, and
the dminutive stature of the oriental
mendous and indomitable will they
contain. The Japs cannot as yet speak
a word of English so an interpreter is
carried to explain the orders given.
From their work so far the roadmaster
is we'll pleased with them, for they
work like soldiers, in fact they never
seem to lose sight of the fact that they
are soldiers still and the possibility
mat they may be called upon again to
fight tor their country so many thou
sand miles away, and all their spare
time is devoted to such recreation as
will make them better soldiers in the
army of the mkado.
All the japanese are athletics and
they keep their bodies supple by con-
stant exercise and gymnastic tricks.
They have their rifles and target prac
tice is one OF their main diversions.
They have no modern rifle range and
targets, so a squad PAGES off forty yards
and holding up buttons their COM
panions shoot them from between their
thumb and finger. One of these hu
man targets lost Il finger nail in the
course of Sunday afternoons practice
and the soldier who hit him was
promptly disarmed. 1t was explained
by the interpreter that he had fly in
his eye.

up'into the thousands. 1t was but a

The money received from the insurance

suspicious manner in which the firm
conducted it's business affairs before

CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED MURDER
Assyrian Held at Sioux Falls For Way.
laYinu His Chief

Sioux Falls SD, sapt.s21.--As the
result Of vicious assault made by
Francis Salem upon Abe Sawyer, a
Sioux Falls business man, tho former
is in the county Jail with the serious
charge of assault with intent to COM
nit murder standing against him.
Sawyer is the official head of the AS
syrian colony in this city, While his
assailant is a member of the colony.
and prior to coming to Sioux Falls he
resided at Manllato Minn, where it is
said he assaulted a brother with a
knife. +
Salem waylaid Sawyer while the lat
ter was on his way home late at night,
springing from the shadow of a build
ing and attacking him with a scant-
ling from which several nails pro-
truded. Fortunately for Sawyer he
caught sight of the descending scant-
ling in time to spring aside. otherwise
his head would have been crushed by
the force Of the heavy blow. The blow
intended for Sawyer's head struck him
on the left arm, rendering it useless.
Salem raised the scantling for another
blow, but Sawyer. Notwithstanding that
his left arm was powerless, grappled
with him. Salem was able to break
away and make his escape for the time
being but it was not long until the
county authorities had him in custody.

MATRIMONIAL ALTAR ELUSIVE.
Former iroquois Minister Gets Two Lii,
censes to We'd, hut of No Avail.

fornef lfoquolS Minister Gets T Wo Lii,
censes to Wed, hut of No Avail.
1roqnois. S. d.. Sept. 26.-Dispatches
from 9ankton give interesting accounts
of the efforts of a former 1roquois min
lister to obtain a Wife. The first chap
ter should have been located in Iro-
quois. the home of the lady whom the
minister hopes to some time make his
Wife.
t,veds Asaaoorian is an Assyrian and
for some time the pastor of the Con-
gresational church here, where his
Wife died last January, leaving three
or four small children. Very soon af-
ter the death of his wife Asadoorian
became infatuated with Jessie Harris,
prominent lroquois lady, and last
April he procured from the clerk of
courts for I3eadle county a license to
marry. giving his own age as 3S years
and that of Miss Harris as 81 years.
Objection to the union being made by
relatives and friends of the lady, the
marriage was not consummated, and
criticism! of the minister's actions was
so severe that it was deemed best for
Elm to locate elsewhere, and according
ly he resigned his pastorate at Iroquois
and took up his abode at Lebanon
People of IrCQuoS meanwhile We're
beginning TO forget the sensation when
suddenly Asadoorian appeared in Iro-
qvolS ana obtained an interview with
his hoped-for bride. The minister's
stay WAS brief, and the next heard of
him he appeared in Yankton with Miss
Harris and applied to the county judge
to be united in marriage. The license
secured in Beadle county was regarded
to be of no value in Yankton county
and the officer therefore declined to
perform the ceremony until Yanllton
county license was procured This done.
Asadoorian and the lady again sought
the judge, and when the ceremony was
about to be performed the bride de-
clared that she had changed her mind
and decided not to be married until
Christmas. This seems to have sur
prised the reverend gentleman, but he
could do nothing but abide his time.
The young lady returned 10 her studies
as student of Yankton college, and
Asadoorian has gone back to his work
at Lebanon.
Asadoorian is an Assyrian. well ed
ucated and quite successful in pastoral
work. but appears to have some pc
culiar notions as to matrimonial af-
fairs. He has held pastorates at Henry
and Centerville, this state. His wife.
who died last January. was a missions
airy to Armenia and there met and con-
vertcd him.

instituted here last week, resulting in
the arrest of A. Aktoersky, a tailor of

rest Of Aktoersky and conference
with him, it appears that settlement
was reached and she has left the city.
Aktoersky did not deny that he and the

expenses of the trip from Russia to
this country in pursuit of her truant
husband and also, agrees to obtain q
divorce from some Jewish Rabbi and
thereby release Aktoersky from his
marital relations SO far as she Is con-
cerned. A year or more ago Aktoersky
