wreckage. Upon the crushed bow was the name Nurnen.
 ''I awoke with a start and lay there shaking with fear for several min utes. I tried to forget the dream, ing crushed bow. I finally decided to desert the ship as soon as it reached port. At Montevideo I re- quested the captain for short leave to go ashore. I had previously told a Russian sailor of my plan to de- sert, and he, frightened by my story of tho dream, said he would go with me. The captain said we could go ashore if the first mate of the yes sel would go with us, for he had great deal of trouble to keep crew.
 "I did not like to leave all my per sonal effects on the ship and run away with six months pay coming to me, but I could not drive away the fear of being wrecked. The Rus sian, the mate and myself rowed ashore and went to barroom. The Russian and I slipped into the base ment and hid. The mate returned to the ship and reported that we had run away, and some little att tempt was made to apprehend us, but the day for the departure of the ship came and we had not been seen by mate or captain. Three days after the Nnrnen cleared the port for a trip around Cape Horn we returned to Montevideo. We called upon the Swedish consul there, but ins stead of getting aid we were arrested and locked in jail. We were told that we would be held until the Nurnen returned, which would keep us in a cell for about three months. They wouldn't listen to the story of the dream. >.
 ''The Russian and I remained pris- oners week after week. Two months after the vessel had left the consul called at the jail. He came to my cell and said:
 Well, I guess I'll let you out of here
 "'Why is that?' I asked.
 Well, word has just reached Montevideo that the Nurnen was wrecked at Cape Horn during g storm. Another boat found part of the wreckage, but all the crew went down.
 "Yes, sir, believe in dreams, and I would have been on the rocks with the rest of the crew if it hadn't been for that little snooze on the roof of the cabin'

Resulted Nm Death of Fem Pep@0ns
 at Minneapolis.
 MINNEAPOLIS, April 24.-It has been ascertained that ten persons, eight men and two women, were killed by the explosion at the plant of the Northwestern Star Oil company at the foot of Sixth avenue yesterday.
 The explosion came without an i'm stant's warning, and a second after the concussion the walls had been thrown down, and the entire structure was a mass of flames. Not a person in the office escaped alive.
 Although the cause of the explosion has not been determined, it is said that some of the employees of the com pany were emptying some oil tank cars into the tanks ill the basement of the building, and 1t Is possible that sparks from a switch engine ignited the in f1ammable fluids.
 Several explosions followed in quick succession and made the work of the firemen difficult and dangerous. The men could not approach the ruins, and the water thrown on the flames was without effect. The department could do nothing but allow the flames to burn themselves out.

A DREAM SAVED HIM.
Remarkable Story Told by Charles
 Nelson, of Chicago.
He Once Had Vision of n Wrecked Ship, on Strength of Which He Deserted and Preserved
 HiS Life.

"Do I believe in dreams? Yes, sir rec, and I have good reason to be- Heve in them, too, for if it hadn't been for a dream ! would have been in 'Davey Jones' locker a long time ago." said Charles Nelson, 40- Clark street, to Chicago Inter Ocean re- porter. "A dream saved my life, so l should like to know why should not believe in them.
 When l was young fellow l was a sailor on the old Norwegian bark entine Nurnen. In May, 1879, l shipped as seaman on the Nurnen, Capt. Christensen, from Copenhagen, bound for Montevideo, South Amer ica. When the vessel was within four days sailing of it's destination I lay down on the roof of the cabin to get a little sleep one night. During my sleep I had 8 frightful dream. l thought I had been marooned on a lonely island in the southern Pacific. In my dream I was a regular Robin son Crusoe, for it seemed there was no other person on the island. 1 dreamed I was standing on the beach scanning the sea for a sign of a sail.
 Finally saw a square-rigged ship, with every stitch of canvas set, fly ing like a bird before the wind. l screamed and waved my arms, but the vessel soon passed below the horizon. I dreamed stood there dazed, but in a little while spar appeared. It seemed to rise out of the sea, and though it bore direct ly toward the island I could discecn no hull beneath it. Soon an empty water cask foated in and rolled upon the sand, but stranger than all soon afterward the crushed bow of ves- sel drifted rapidly shoreward and fell upon the sand, a tangled mass of

LOVE IS VICTORIOUS.
Few Obstacles Can Thwart Cupid's
 Well-Laid Plans.
Phon OEraph PIays Important Part in the Romance of MT. and Mrs.
 Bush-MarrdaEe Service by TelephOne.

There are more ways than one of get ting married, and that is said without reference to the different customs pre- vailing in different countries. There are more ways than one of getting married in this country, where the ap pearance of bride and groom before minister or justice with marriage E- cen@e is accepted as the proper way.
 Accident has stepped in to prevent some of the weddings in which the persons chiefly concerned have refused to be delayed by circumstances and the marriage services have proceeded un- der difficulties and in strange forms, but still being marriage ceremonies.
 Of all these, one of the strangest is that of MT. and Mrs. Allen Bush. They were to meet in a city where the bride had friends and were to be married the following day. Both carried out this part of the agreement, but two days before that set for the ceremony the bride was taken i'll with diphtheria.
 The house of the friend with whom she was stopping was immediately quarantined and the bridegroom was refused entrance. That looked like a. postponement of the wedding, but the bridegroom thought differently. He set his wits to work and hit upon a plan.
 Two photographs were secured. So were marriage license and minister. Two cylinders were used. In one the clergyman propounded the questions to the bridegroom and the man gave his answers. The other cylinder was left untouched.
 Both instruments then were taken to the brides sick room by the nurse. They were placed on table and the wedding began. One photograph spoke the clergyman's questions, giv-

ing at the same time the bridegroom's answers.
 When the clergyman addressed the bride, through the photograph, she am swered into the cylinder of the unused one. When he asked questions of the bridegroom, tho answers were given at once through the photograph.
 The minister and the bridegroom in reality were sitting below in the parlor of the house, probably smoking cigars and wondering how the ceremony was progressing upstairs.
 Finally the nurse brought the two instruments downstairs and they knew that the service was over. They knew that the other cylinder con tained the brides answers and her final ives" The clergyman shook hands with Mir. Bush and congratu- lated him on being married man.
 Any time MT. and Mrs. Bush wish to hear the wedding service repeat ed all they have to do is to set two photographs to going and the whole affair is gone over again. That is a useful institution to have in household on wedding anniversaries and the like.
 Miss Agnes Charter was telephone girl. She was engaged to marry Kansas man and the wedding was to take place in her home town of Denver. On the day set for the wed- ding several of the telephone girls were taken suddenly ill, and Miss Charter was obliged to work.
 Charles Carver, the bridegroom, was travelling man. On the morn ing of the day set for the wedding he was ordered to take train for Omaha in three hours. It admitted of no delay. The two were confront ed with the necessity of finding some way of holding the service or of post poning 1t for month.
 Miss Charter could not leave the office, but Carver thought of plan. He placed the minister at a telephone and himself stood at the side. The minister went through the essential portions of the service rapidly. Miss Charter gave her answers from her seat in the telephone exchange and he from his position beside the min ister. The minister, with the receiver in his ear, heard the answers of both bride and groom. The bridegroom had to take the word of the minister for the fact that his wife had ac- cepted him.
 The short service over, the bride groom took the telephone, told his wife to take a train as soon as she could for Omaha. and then left the city. She joined him in two days.
