CUPID WAITS FOR FOUR
a- MONTHS AND WINS
License to Marry Taken Out Long Ago
Is Good.

Frank Plug and Miss Clara Hoehne,
OF North ST. Paul, were married by
Court Commissioner GaIlick yesterday
morning on a marriage license issued
last November. The Wedding was not
a family affair; in fact a sister Of
the groom remained outside the court
commissioners Office and declared that
her new sister-in- law should never
darken the door Of their home, While
PHug.s mother, who opposed the union,
IS reported to have been too i'll to ia
terfere with the match.
The young couple met in North st.
Paul, where both reside, last summer,
and after brief courtship became en-
gagged. A day was fixed for the we'd
ding, and a license was secured Nov.
-. When the young mans family
heard of the matter they entered such
serious objections that the marriage
was called off, and the license secured
at that time remained unused until
yesterday. While Plug, Influenced by
his mother and sister, was willing to
call the engagement off altogether, Is)t
50 with Miss Hoehne. She said Plug
had promised to make her his wife
and she insisted that he keep his
promise. Her inSistence was of no
avail, and yesterday she caused his
arrest.
The case was to have been called
before Judge Hine yesterday after
noon, but when it was reached the
court was informed that the complaint
had been Withdrawn upon the young
man keeping his promise to marry the
girl. The sister of the groom tried
her best to prevent the marriage, but
Plug took the young woman to the
Office of Judge Gallick and producing
the marriage license secured almost
four months ago had the ceremony
performed.
