Port Dodge, Feb. 9.—The entire po
lice force was called out this morn
ing to quell a riot in the Illinois Cen
tral yards, a number of sons of Italy
threatening to kill a switchman toe
cause of an aocident to one of their
fellow countrymen.
A gang of Italians has been at work
in the yards for some time past,
cleaning out the switches and doing
other work. This forenoon as as en
gine was switching, on# of the for
eigners was run into. By a queer
freak of circumstances the wheels did
no pass over his body, but the man
wn rolled over and over for about
two rail lengths before the engine
could be stopped.
As soon'as the cars were brought to
a standstill, he at once sprang to his
feet and was quickly surrounded by a
gang of his fellow countrymen. The
man who had been bowled over seized
a 'piece of coal, and with exclama
tion, "Me killa you," hurled it at the
awitchm&n who had been standing on
the footboard of the engine. The lat
ter quickly took to his heels. He was
pursued by a shouting gesticulating
gang of Italians all yelling, "We killa
you I We kllla you! Tou maka da
Dago getta killed 1"
Trainmen in the yard now came to
the assistance of their thoroughly
frightened friend and it looked for a
time as tho there would be blood
shed. However, the foreigners were
overpowered by superior numbers and
were quieted. It is said that they
have avowed vengeance, however, and
the chased switchman has been in hid
ing sine* the occurrence.

FEARS A HENRY COUNTY JURY
Change Will Probably Be Granted, as
Henry County People Are Greatly
Incensed Over the Crime—Doubt as
to the Extent of Gimmsr's Confet*
Special to Times-Republican.
Burlington, Feb. 9.—The February
term of the Henry county district court
convenes next Monday, when the grand
Jury will meet. The principal cases to
be considered will be those of Zlninicr
and Grimes, the men who are held
charged with the murder of John Gav
in, and who are at the present time
confined In the local county Jail. Thers
is little doubt but what the grand Jury
will find a true bill against both men,
charging them with murder in the first
degree. It will then be up to their
counsel to prove that they are innocent
or guilty of a lesser crome.
Ex-County Attorney Frank Thomp
son, who has been retained by Zlm
mer's relatives to defend him, states
that he will seek a change of venue for
his client from Henry county to Des
Moines county, on the usual grounds of
not being able to secure a fair trial. It
is quite likely that the change will be
granted. In that event the case would
not be tried until the April term of
court. Grimes has not yet secured
counsel and It is quite likely some at
torney from the Henry county bar will
be named by the court to act for him.
In the meantime nothing further has
been given out by the Henry county
authorities concerning the confession
Zlmmer made last Saturday. It is now
stated that he did not admit striking
the first blow, but confessed that he
had helped to finish the Job by killing
Gavin.

Chicago Couple Run^ way From Par

Davenport, Feb. —Sadie Eberly,
pretty, petite and fWenty, and Kenith
Boyd, 24 years old, both of Chicago,
were married by Magistrate Roddewig
at the boarding house of S. G. Robson,
628 Main street, and thereon hangs
a little romance that had Its beginning
In Chicago and in which an irate fa
ther and a rich bachelor figure.
According to the story that the
couple told the magistrate, Kenith
and Sadie had been sweethearts for
several months past, and some
weeks ago decided that some time in
the future they would establish a lit
tle home of their own.
It seems, however, that the elder
Eberley did not take kindly to this
plan as he had others and what he
thought more alluring arrangements
in mind for his daughter. This plan I
was none other than that she should
become tho bride of a New York
man who is 40 "nrs of age and has
some $500,000 or more with which he
could buy the young girl luxuries and
fineries.
Gold and Jewels did not count when
weighed in the balance with her
young sweetheart, however, and Miss
Eberley steadtly refused to become
the bride of the elder man.
Things came to a climax day be
fore yesterday when the bachelor
from New York came on to Chicago,
evidently with the intention of claim
ing his bride. It was then that the
girl telephoned to her sweetheart and
they decided on a plan that would
outwit father and the bachelor.

signatures of Indians on the Rosebud
reservation to the treaty embodying a
compromise bill to be Introduced in
congress In lieu of the Burke and Gam
ble bills, has returned to Washington
with the signatures of hundreds of In

Tripp county possible.
The opening of this county alone will
cause from 5.000 to 6.000 farmers to
take up homes in South Dakota. More
of them will go from Iowa, Nebraska
and Minnesota than from all other
states together. It means 1,000,000
acres of new forming lands, and the
land agents are already getting busy to
locate homes for settlers in the new
territory. Six or eight new towns will
be opened In the county and a large
new trade territory opened to the Sioux
City market.
When the strip of reservation was
opened near Bonesteel in Gregory
county in 1904, more than 100,000 peo
ple registered for claims. The tract
which it is now proposed to open is as
large again as the "Rosebud country"
opened three years ago. Tripp county

Are You Without
A Bank Account?
Even if .your business Is
such that you have gone along
without a Bank Account—the
idea is worthy of your care
ful consideration.

transaction.
It saves you a lot of bother
to have a Bank Account.
