TOOK MARITAL VOW
AT GATE OF DEATH
But Love Promises to Save the
Life Of Charles Mel
son.

While Charles Nelson lay suffering
agonies from a serious accident and all
present believed that he could not live
more than a few hours, Mrs. Anna Elk
strom. became his wife at the home Of
the bride IS mother, Mrs. Anna johnson,
610 Twenty-third avenue S, yesterday.
Since the ceremony Mr.. Nelson, tenderly
gaining strength and today it is be-
: Mrs. Ekstrom is well-known for her
work among the poor in the twin cities:
For several years she was connected
with the Salvation Army, and when as
ISOLATED with the St. Paul CORPS she she was vas
When a girl, attending school at
Cambridge, MINI, Miss johnson be-
came acquainted with a schoolb2oey
named Charles Nelson, and there the
romance began.
But when the girl came to Minneapo-
lis she met Mr.. Ekstrom and another
courtship began, which ended in mar,
rage. After a year the husband died
and the wife, devoted herself to re-
| ligious work. Several months ago she
heard that Nelson was in the city. Her
interest in him prompted search, and
she learned that he, too, had been ask
ing after her. 1,-.-. ?,
The Old Love Revived.
| They met about two months ago, and
as Nelson was not satisfied with his
boarding place, he asked to be taken
into the johnson home. Two months
of association with the girl whom he
liked so well in childhood revived the
old love, and they. became engaged.
Last Wednesday was named as the we'd
ding day.
But Saturday Nelson slipped on the
! icy sidewalk and broke his leg. Com
plications set in and the physicians
Feared a fatal issue. Mrs. Ekstrom
first suggeste dto her betrothed that
the wedding take place as arranged
Nelson, who had not dared suggest
such a thing, believing that he would
die, gladly assented, an dthe bride-to

tails. which usually fall to the in

i She went to the marriage license
clerk and after explaining the circum
stances prevailed upon him to issue the
paper hen she found the preacher
Rev. Mr.. Gambol. In the presence OF
the BRIDES mother and sister, and 9
few friends the ceremony was per
formed at the the appointed hour. Il
was pathetic, despite the struggle Of
| the sick man to be cheerful, and many
of the guests wept. Now, with the
prospect Of the recovery Of the bride
groom they are all happy.

DELAY IN APPOINTMENT
Wynn Fails to Take Papers to the
White House. =. 80 ~.
BY w. w. Jermane,


=, Washington, Jan. 20.-The telegram
from St. Cloud asking that * the people
be. heard'' against the appointment of
James A. Martin as postmaster of that
city reached Postmaster General Wynne
this morning. That official did not
take Martins commission to the cabi-
net meeting today, so nothing will be
done in that direction earlier than next
Tuesday, when the cabinet will meet
again.
Meanwhile there will be time for the
st. Cloud protest to reach Washington
by mail or for the people, to come
here in person. The telegram Of itself
is not sufficient to hold up the commits
sion.
Hot on Goodnow's Trail.
The man Curtis, who is hot on the
trail Of John Goodnow, hardly seems
likely to make much Roadway in his
efforts to have Goodnow impeached by
congress. After he had submitted to
Judge jenkins, chairman of the house
Judiciary committee, the mass of evi.
dence which he has secured against
Goodnow, Jenkins told him the com
mittee could do nothing unless directed
by the house, and Curtis is now looking
for some member who will introduce
a resolution calling upon the commit.
tee to act. In view of the fact that
Goodnow is now on his way home to an.
swer the charges, it is unlikely that
the impeachment matter will assume q
serious phase.
Emden Case Dismissed.
In police court today the case against
Victor Emden Of Minneapolis, son-in
law of Ben Aarons, accused Of CRANE
larceny, was dismissed. Emden ha6
pawned his wife's Jewels to friend FOL
$775. Subsequently he borrowed then
several times that his wife might weal
them. The last time they were not re
turned and warrant was sworn out
Now, however, the Jewels have beer
returned and the case is dismissed.
Indians Million Held Up.
The secretary Of the interior ha,
decided that the Turtle Mountain In
dians Of North Dakota have not com
piled with the law passed last white
under which they were to receiv,
! ST. 100000 for their lands. It seems
according to the secretary, that tn
Indians have failed to file q proper re
llinquishment Of all further claim
against the government and until thi
has been done the money will not b
paid. Probably an agent Will be sen
/ to the Indians to call council to &c
cure this relinquiahnent. d
