met Miss Bryan when he came to Lincoln
several months ago to paint a portrait of

pointments of the subject of the portrait
the sittings were interrupted frequently and
during the numerous intervals the young
people formed an acquaintance which speed

and resulted in the wedding of tonight.

The Deed Committed Late Last Night
at His Boarding House on North
Delaware Street.
WAS A FRIEND OF WILLIAMSON
BOTH YOUNG MEN DIE BY THEIR
OWN HANDS SAME NIGHT.
They Worked Together for the Bell
Telephone Company and Were
Disappointed In Love.

Marvin j. Welch, young man in the
employ Of the Bell Telephone Company, liv-
ing at sic North Delaware street, at mid
night last committed suicide by shooting
himself in the right temple with a revolver
and his death was instantaneous. The cir
cumstances were much the same as those
which surrounded the death of George B.
Williamson, the young employe of the tele-
phone company who committed suicide early
in the evening.
Both young men had lived in Chicago and
were the best of friends. On Friday night
Williamson called on Welch and the two
held a long consultation, and from the evil
dence it appears they made their plans for
the deeds which were perpetrated last night.
Both young men yesterday purchased new
left any note or letter explaining the motive
for the deed. However, Welch was known
to have been in love with a young woman
in Chicago with whom he corresponded,
but whether his deed was prompted by a
quarrel with her or not is not known at the
present time. Welch's mother lives in
GAINESVILLE, Wis, and a letter which he re-
ceived from her yesterday lay opened on
the table by his bed, indicating that he had
read her letter before ending his life.
READ UNTIL TOO LATE.
He went to his room early in the even
ing and prepared for bed, but instead of
going to sleep sat up and read until
nearly II o'clock. Suddenly a revolver
shot rang out through the halls of the
house and the inmates of the building were
awakened to hear the sound of the falling
body of the young man as he struck the
floor. In an instant the room was filled
with excited onlookers and a doctor was
called. but the man was beyond any aid.
Deputy Coroner Gels and Bicyclemen
Askins and Duncan were on the scene i'm
mediately after the sad affair occurred and
aside from learning the home address of
the young man their presence was unnec-
essary, as it was a plain case of suicide.
Welch's body was taken to Tutewier's un-
dertaking establishment and will be sent to
the home of the mother along with that
of his companion and friend to-day. 1t is
believed by the police that Welch and VIII
hanson died by agreement. as their plans
were laid exactly in the same manner

Seven Persons Killed and Twenty
Five Injured, Many Of Them
Seriously.
NUMEROUS HOUSES RAzED
ENTIRE MAIN STREET OF THE
PLACE Is IN RUINS.
Elsewhere-Severe Storms Through
out Wisconsin.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 3.-St Charles,
Winona county, to-day was almost oblit-
Grated by a tornado. Seven persons were
killed and twenty-eight injured, many of
them severely
The dead-John Ebens, William Ebens,
VIII Adams, Oscar Crimenden, John John
son, Ed Murphy, Ed Peters.
Among the injured are Carrie Ebens,
Charles Crippens, - Blankenberg.
The names of others injured are so far
unobtainable as wire communication with
st. Charles is cut off. The entire main
street of the town was razed. Forty-two
houses were destroyed, and the total prop
erty damage is 100000. Among the build
ings demolished are the Central school
building, the Chicago Great Western sta
tion the Catholic Church and Parsons
wagon works.
The day had been abnormally sultry and
during the morning there had been show
ers accompanied by fitful gusts of wind.
Towards noon the sky became heavily
overcast, but indications of a tornado were
entirely lacking. Farmers had gathered in
large numbers in the main street to do their
saturday shopping. AT 2:30 o'clock the
storm cloud was seen approaching from the
southwest and there was scramble for
places. of safety. The tornado struck the
II
sweep, following the main street and dew
astating buildings either side. Then the
residences further back from the business
center were struck and many of them were
blown away
Four of those killed were in John Ebens's
saloon when it collapsed and they were
buried beneath the wreckage. Two Others
were in a dry goods store, which was
blown away, and they were killed by the
falling walls. Ed Peters was killed i'm the
wreck of the hotel. The telephone exchange
was demolished and Two of the girls were
seriously injured. Mr.. Bankenberg was
the proprietor of grain elevator and he
was caught in the wreck when this was
destroyed.
A relief train with doctors was sent from
Winona as soon as the news of the serious
nature of the storm was received
The storm came UP with such sudden
ness that 1t was filling the air with debris
of demolished buildings before the inhah-
itants fully realized the nature of the ca
lamity.
Many of those injured received their hurts
from flying timbers, while others were
caught beneath the wreckage of their bus
mess houses or homes and remained pin-
ioned down until rescued Another relief
Rochester in the morning with provisions
and clothing for those who are destitute
and homeless. So far no deaths have been
reported from the country adjacent to ST
Charles. The storm seems to have followed
closely the boundary line between Mime
sofa and Iowa and damage to farm build
ings, dwellings and grain stacks with in
jury to human beings and death to live
stock is reported from several points in
that quarter. The fury OF the storm. how
ever. seems to have spent itself in St
Charles.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Oct 3.-Governor
Durbin has written to Prosecutor Wallace
saying that responsible citizens of Terre
Haute had informed him that the street
fair to be held this month can be stopped
by the prosecutor. The Governor refers to
the ''recklessness and brutality of persons
acting under the cover Of the so-called
carnival spirit
He says the location OF the Indiana
Normal in Terre Haute offers a special
reason why public sentiment should de-
mand and the civil authorities enforce al
all times conditions which do not menace
the moral welfare of the young men and
young women whom the State has en-
trusted to your hospitality"
The Governor suggests that the prose
cutor take such action as will preserve tht
laws from indignity Prosecutor Wallace
had already furnished the press with 9
