Twenty-Five little japanese brides
demonstrated during two weddings at
the immigration office yesterday that
no matter whether a woman halls
from America, from Europe or the
Orient, she is woman still, says the
Seattle p. l. These little women were
witnesses to a double wedding per-
formed by Rev. H. Full, the Japan
ese Buddhist priest, the two brides
being from among their number.
By the strange ceremony of the
Buddhist religion, Miss IRA Misaka
and Mitsu Uji and Miss Shizu Shin
tari and Isaforo Shintari became two.
The ceremony, conducted in Japan
ese, was adapted largely to the Ameri-
can form, except that instead of
clasping hands the bride and bride
groom stood side by side. After the
ceremony Mr.. and Mrs. Uji took a
carriage and started at once for Pen
ryn, Cal, and Mr.. and Mrs. Shintari
for Sacramento, Cal, where they will
at once begin housekeeping on fruit
ranches recently purchased by the
bridegrooms.
All the little women arrived a few
days ago from Japan, where they
were married by proxy to young Jap
anese who preceded them to Ameri-
ca. They came to search for their
husbands, and as soon as they are
found the American ceremony will be
solemnized and they will be free wo-
men in the new land of their adop-
ton.
For an hour before the double we'd
ding the little Japanese women were
busy making their toilettes in antici-
patton of the ceremony for the two
fortunate young women who were to
precede them to the altar. The
strange party gathered about the two
couples, but there were no tears-all
was laughter and joy 25 tongues wag-
ging merrily in a torrent of words
Hearty japanese greetings followed
the two couples as they climbed into
their carriages and were driven rap
idly away.

NordahI Guilty Of Murder.

LEwIsTowN. June 20.-Ole Nordahl
was this morning found guilty of muir
der in the first degree for the killing
of Mrs. Bertha Schleuter on January
II, last, the penalty being left for the
court to fix. The verdict was agreed
upon by the jury after being out be-.
tween seven and eight hours.
Nord ahl, who is "a years of age.
and q former resident of the Sun river
valley, has resided on the Musselshell
for eight years. Four years ago Mr..
and Mrs. Schleuter and three children
settled there, and Nordahl, whose
place was about two miles distant,
became intimately acquainted with
them. Last December Mr.. Schleuter
died, and Nordahl was prominent
among those who assisted the family
10 their distress. On the morning of
January II, last, 1t was found that the
Schleuter place had been burned to
the ground, and it was quickly noted
there were footprints leading around
the house to the storehouse, where the
coal oil was kept. This, coupled with
the fact that there was q strong odor
of coal oil In the ruins, and that two
empty fve-gallon coal oil cans were
later found In the ruins, attracted at
t%ention. Then human remains were
found in the place, and what was left
of five bodies was collected.
Footprints were traced some little
distance to a point on the Missouri
river, where a horse making peculiar
tracks had been left standing. Nor
dahl appeared at the inquest with his
hair, eyebrows and mustache singed:
and with scratches, such as might be
made with finger nails, on his face
and hands. His o%vershOes were Sc
cured, and it was found that they were
both let's and that they fitted the
tracks. 1t was found that his saddle
horse made peculiar footprints, like
those of the horse that had been lef,
beside the river. 1t was found tina,
bis overalls were reeking with coal
oil, that there wsre blood stains on
them, as we'll as On the bottom of the
shoes, and that a woman's hair was
adhering to the blood on one of the
shoes.
