SOUTH DAKOTA
GERMANS ARE
DECLARED Guilty
Violation of Espionage Act Was the
Charge-Jury Deliberated
For Three Hours

Sioux Falls, S. D., Oct. 24.-Twen-
ty-seven German residents of Hutch
inson county, South Dakota, were
found guilty on three counts of an in
dictment charging attempts at inter-
ference with the operation of the
selective draft, in federal court here
tonight. The jury returned the YER
dict after more than three hours de-
liberation. Sentence will be passed
by Judge Youmans tomorrow morning.
The defendants who were tried
jointly were charged also with having
signed a petition to Governor Nor
beck in August threatening him with
defeat in future elections unless the
draft quota of the county was read
justed. All of the defendants admit
ted signing the petition, but denied
knowledge of it's contents. Most of
them could not speak or read English,
they testified. Evidence introduced
by the government tended to prove
that conspiracy existed among the
German socialists in Hutchinson coun-
ty to obstruct the operation of the Sc
lective draft law.

OVER 1000 PUPILS KEEP UP STANDARD
LARGE ENROLMENT IN DEN
YER OPPORTUNITY SCHOOL.
Principal Griffith Says More Girls Are
Needed to Learn House and
Machine Shop Work.

Days of the week for instruction in
cooking classes at the Denver Oppor-
tunity school have been decided upon
and the instructors have now settled
down to hard work in this department.
The attendance, too, has increased
greatly in the past few days.
The total number of pupils enrolled
with the institution in all departments
is now over 1000 About 1,400 of
these attend in the daytime and the
remaining number at night.
| The general cooking classes will be
held on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thurs
days; lessons in invalid cookery will
be given Monday afternoons at l
o'clock; advanced cookery will be
taught on Wednesday evenings. Fri
day mornings are set apart for the
housewives class and deals with cook
ing in general.
An effort will be made to organize a
larger class of girls who wish to learn
housework, with a view to fitting
themselves for work as domestics. So
far this class has not attracted many
girls, altho it is pointed out by the

at night in the Opportunity school.
