yer Grove of the fact. A warrant for
the arrest of Johnson was secured, and
he was being taken to South St. Paul,
to be placed in the lookup when he ex-
pired.
Examination of the body revealed

MINNESOTA GETS
RICH IRON LANDS
ttfaE nE@ 5s -sfs41tG-
Tract Worth 100000 Re-
verts to State Through =
Decision of Land Office.

Through the close work of State Au-
ditor Iverson Minnesota has been en-
riched to the extent of 81 900 900 by
the granting of a disputed tract of
forty acres in the Mesaba Range to
the state.
This tract has long been in dispute,
being claimed by two Wisconsin men
named Smith and Bradshaw, who are
represented by Attorney John J. Skuse,
Duluth, but had been claimed by the
state as swamp land, under, an act. of
congress of March IL, 1860.
The history of the tract is a check
cred one. 1t has been claimed by many
persons and under many pretexts. So
called errors in the line of survey have
inquired largely, resurveys have been
made, and technical difficulties have
been evolved, seemingly out of moth
1ngnesS, and all because it was posi-
lively known that the same priceless
iron lead that has made the Sauntry,
Oliver and Alpena mines so valuable
runs through it.
Upon the point Of whether or not
this tract should be considered Swamp
lands" depends the validity of the
states claim. Surveyor General War
ner has had many examinations made
OF all the claimants, and the present
lessee, Mabel Evans; has gone over
the ground in company with State Au-
d1tor lverson, and the result of it all
was that it was selected as swamp
lands"
Immediately upon this decision be-
coming known at Washington at the
United States general land office, the
Wisconsin claimants enlisted the in
terest of United States Senator For
aker, of Ohio, to fight the decision.
surveyor General Warner was in
Structed by the land office officials and
the department of the interior to make
another review of the claims and the
evidence, and the result of it is given

SHOWER Of RICE
SPEEDS THE PAIR
w. j. Gibbons and Bride Meet
With a Surprise at Union RI
Depot. m ~

Station masters, porters and police
men tried in vain to prevent a crowd
Of merrymakers from covering the
floor of the union depot with rice last
night.
The occasion for the showering Of
rice and the promiscuous throwing of
old shoes was the wedding last evening
Of Mr.. w. J. Gibbons and Miss MaTlie
Kenny, daughter Of former Aid.
Terence Kenny, 1877 Marshall ave-
nue.. Arrangements had been quietly
made by the bridal party to leave ST,
Paul at IL o'clock last night, and none
Of the wedding guests had been ap-
pr1sed of this fact. The intentions of
the bridal couple soon leaked out, how
ever, and when the hack containing
Mr.. Gibbons and his bride pulled UP at
the union depot at least half hun
dred young people were there to re-
ce1ve them in royal manner
Old shoes were soon attached to the
baggage of the newly married couple,
and rice was thrown in such reckless
manner that the floor of the union
station was almost covered with it.
Police officers and union depot officials
protested, but in vain. The crowd fol-
lowed the newly married couple as far
as the gates and made life miserable
Tor them until their train was called.
Aside from the numerous old shoes
"AANA clOOA IICu Tic the DrlOdl
pair. two suit cases were placarded
with inscriptions which could leave no
doubt as to the identity of the owners.
On one ofe the pieces of baggage was a
card on which was printed in large let
ters, We Have Just Been Married"
On another was a card, "a Newly
Married Couple. Oh. Me! Oh, My!"
fortunately for the bridal party the
train which was to take them on their
wedding trip was on time. and at II
O'Clock they made their escape from
their friends and were soon on their
way to Niagara Falls in which vicinity
they will spend their honeymoon.
The wedding ceremony was perform
ca at the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Terence Kenny, 737
Marshall avenue. by the Rev. Father
McNuity last evening. in the presence
of large number of friends.

Charles THOMPSON, eighteen-months-

terday morning on Jackson street, near

ST. PAUL STREETS SEEM
TO NEED A DELUGE
One Hundred Thousand Dollars Would
Not Do the SprinkIng Demanded.

It could spend 100000 for sprink-
ling this year and not have enough"
said City Engineer Rundlett yester-
day. Every property owner in st.
Paul, it seems, wants his particular
street sprinkled."
According to Mr.. Rundlett as large
an area Of improved streets is being
sprinkled as ever before, but so many
new improved sections have been adj
ded to the city in the past two years
that it is impossible to care for them
all with the amount Of money allowed,
$4,000.
Minneapolis spends nearly $150,0O0 a
year for sprinkling alone. and COM
plants are just as numerous. In order
to spread the sprinkling the wagons
are made to cover twice the distance
under the old way, but yet that does
not satisfy.
