friend of both the contracting parties
Miss Matte Dickinson acted as maid
to the bride while Chas. 0. Gilfillan OF
Gilfllan Siding, supported the groom
At nine o'clock sharp the bridal party
stepped to little nook in the south
east corner of the parlor and directly
in front of the minister. They stood
on floral rug of roses and other flow
ers. Mr.. Sinclair used the short form
Presbyterian services, and after pro-
pounding the usual questions, pro-
nounced the happy couple man and
wife.
The bride wore a gown of cream
woolen goods, trimmed with lace and
ribbons, white gloves and slippers. A
single bridal rose adorned her dark
hair and she carried beautiful hand
bouquet of similar roses. Going tc
the minister's station she rested light
ly on the grooms arm and the couple
made decidedly charming wedding
spectacle.
The maid of honor, Miss Dickinson
wore costume of pale blue silk, trim
med with cream lace and chiffon
Pale blue chiffon in waves around a
medium low necked gown, contrasted
by yellow roses in the maids hair and
a bouquet of the same roses in he1
right band, ornamented a maid o1
which the bride had right to feel
proud.
The groom and best man were at
tired in conventional morning we'd
ding costumes.
After the ceremony the bridal couple
received the congratulations of their
relatives and friends present, after
which the entire party sat down to a
sumptuous wedding breakfast. Later
they were driven to the st. Louis de-
pot where they took the east bound
train for St. Paul and Minneapolis
and points in Iowa. The travelling
gown of the bride was of imported
brown silk and wool goods, manufact-
ured in coat style, and trimmed in
silk, with velvet buttons Hat and
gloves to match we're worn.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tyson will be at home
after May 1st in their residence on
Ramsey street, at the juncture of
Broadway and Wyoming
The bride and groom are both we'll
known in this city and surrounding
country. Mr.. Tyson is known to be
an indefatigable worker, not only for
himself but for the interests of the city
and country, and while acting as com
missioner he was considerate in all
things. AS President of the agricul-
tural society he piloted the annual
fairs of that institution through pro-
gressive and retrogressive seasons.
Mrs. Tyson has resided here for many
years, and has earned her own livli-
hood of late years in pursuing the art
of tailor dressmaking and other sew
ing. Of late she has been more or
less prominent in social circles.
Mr.. Tyson met his bride for the
first time some months ago. A mar
ried sister of the bride resides with
her husband on Glendale farm, and it
was on visit to her sister one time
that Mr.. Tyson and Mrs. Tyson we're
first introduced. After that Mr.. Ty-
son was always pleased to have Miss
McKeleheer call on her sister, and Mr..
Tyson was always a great deal more
pleased to take Miss McKeleheer back
to Redwood Falls. 1t was these rides
to and from Glendale, and the tete-a-
tetes at the farm, that finally gave Mr..
Tyson courage to ask the final ques
tion.
