TORNADO At WATERFOWL
INTERRUPTED WEDDING

WATERFOWL, 8. D., July 1-Thwart-
ed once by the cyclone that visited Wa
tertown last Tuesday evening, Cupid
won out Saturday afternoon, when Will
liam Barnes and Miss Belle Leach were
married I'm this city. The wedding
brought out the fact that ii would have
been solemnized Tuesday evening had
the cyclone not destroyed the home of
the bride on Fourth street. The we'd
ding hour had been fixed for 5 o'clock,
and both bride and groom were dress
ing for the ceremony when the storm
struck the house. The dwelling was
almost total wreck, the brides trous-
seau was scattered over city block
and all thoughts of wedding were
lost in the anxiety lest some member
of the family had been killed or in
jured. The groom lost his entire nup-
tial wardrobe, including a roll of $3.50
in bills. A valuable collection of we'd
ding presents was also lost. AS soon
as possible after the storm, new plans
were made and the wedding was SOL
emnized yesterday, although upon a
less pretentious scale.

RUSHING HARVEST SEASON

Pierre s. d.. June 29.-The United
States department OF labor is showing
peculiar lack OF information when 1t
officially sends men to South Dakota
70 work In the harvest fields at this
season of the year. Yet every day is
bringing to the state immigration de-
partment at this city men from the
east with a form letter OF the govern
ment department., signed by @. l.,
Green, superintendent In charge OF the
New York branch, specifically stating
that they are sent out for harvest work.
and having an attached card asking for
report OF the state department on
their arrival and going TO work. While
there are requests fled in the depart
ment of the immigration commissioner
for many hundreds OF men after the
middle OF July, the demand at present
is light, and in most OF the cases those
coming have expended all their avail
able means in reaching here, and have
to be cared for in some manner.
