PELIED WITH HAIL
Natures Substitute for Rice at a
Minnetonka Wedding.
PERFORMED IN STORM
Nuptial Music Was Thunder and the
Puritan's Deafening Steam
81. .srs-. whistle. - .s,. )

A most unusual wedding took place at
Minnetonka Tuesday evening when John
B. Griffith and Anna B. Christofferson,
members of the Salvation Army of Min
neapolis, were married on the steamer
Puritan at 10 o'clock p. m. in the midst
of the severe storm which visited the lake
that evening. A large company Of Sal
vationists witnessed the novel ceremony
which had few features unexpected, even
in such an unusual service. ''. -
The Puritan was approaching the mar
rows when the hour for the ceremony
arrived. The band was playing a pro-
gram of wedding music, when Captain
johnson was obliged to order an abrupt
discontinuance of the program. in order
that the engineer might hear his signals
for movements in the passage of the mar
rows. Colonel Margitts, of the Salvation
Army, had read the greater part of the
service before the boat entered the mar
rows. 1t was time for the bridegroom
to place the, ring upon the finger of the
bride. ..
Through some displacement of the ring,
the bridegroom was not able to produce
1t promptly. When he did at last Sc.
cure the golden band, and just as he was
about to place it upon the finger of the
bride, Captain Johnson, supposing the
ceremony was over, blew a nightly blast
upon the whistle as warning to all boats
to clear the narrows. 1t is said the bride
rose several inches from the deck without
an effort and it is certain that her at
tention to the remainder of the service
was somewhat distract ed. The ceremony
was at last accomplished however, and
to atone for his previous lack~of gallant
ry, Captain Johnson warmly saluted the
bride. ~:
