The ride from st. Paul to White Bear
is not devoid of interest to a Stanger,
and after getting out of the depot yards
the first thing to attract attention is
Swede hollow, with its numerous shan
ties, on each side of the Rapidly running
brook, which flows from one end of the
hollow to the other. finally diScharging
Its muddy waters into the Mississippi
river. The people who live here are
principally Swedes and Norwegians,
and, although they pay small rental
for Their houses, they enjoy themselves,
as well as those whose costly mansions
crown the summit of the overhanging
bluffs. One of the shanties is almost
obScured from view by the number of
sunfioWers growing in the garden. Its
occupant does not cultivate the sun
flower to. satisfy his craving for the
aesthetic, but for food. The seeds of
the flower are taken out and dried and
when roasted like peanuts, make very
palatable and nourishing food.
An amusing incident, in which
young man who has made White Bear
his home for number of years, figured
as principal occurred in ST. Paul short
time ago. The young man was about to
be married to an estimable young lady
well known in st. Anthony hill circles.
high noon. The family and intimate
friends had assembled to witness the
approaching nuptials, and the ceremony
was about to begin, when the minister
turned to the groom and asked to see
the marriage license. The astoniShed
ana embarrassed young man searched
MS pockets, but in vain, no license was
forthcoming. 1t was little detail
which, in the excitement of preparation
Tor the mOmentOuS event, he had over
looked. SO an adjournment was taken,
a carriage procured, and after a hasty
drive down town the important docu-
ment was secured, and all went merry
as marriage bell.
