liable to give either their destination or
his name. 1t is believed the couple are
now on board a yacht on the Medlter-

The whole affair is shrouded in mys-
terry and romantic The future husband
of Nine Calve is described as a rich
American and artist, passionately fond
of music, who for a long time mas never
missed a performance of Mime. Calve,
but who until recently had not sought
an introduction. Just at the time when
the American decided to ask for Nine.
Calves hand in marriage an accident to

guard at the plot. but rumor says It
also is doomed to occupy the sculptor
mans junk pile.
The burning brand Of all to the
feelings of the poor sculptor is the
thought that his fellow tradesmen will
label this nice big 81 400 monument az
second hand" and he will have to sell
1t at bargain sale.
The story back of the Deming trou-
bles dates back over fifteen years.
when Deming met Mrs. Bolton in
Grand Forks, N. D. She was then the
wife of Elwine Bolton, man of mod
crate means.
In 1894 Deming met the woman
again in Rochester. N. T., where, It Is
said, marriage ceremony was per-
formed. The couple then hied them
selves to Los Angeles.
Mrs. Bolton had been married before
to man named Gamble, and had two
children. One of these children, Fred
Gamble, lives in Los Angeles, and made
his home with the Demings. It II
claimed his actions precipitated the
trouble that resulted in the division of
the estate of Mrs. Deming, alias Boil
ton.
Shortly after Mrs. Deming's death.
Bolton entered suit for the estate of
the woman, saying that at the time
of her death. she was still his wife:
that she had never been divorced from.
him.
The suit was threshed out in Judge
Gibbs court. and the son. Fred Gam
BILE, testified that his mother had been
living with Deming as his wife while
she still was the wife of Bolton.
The property Of the Bolton woman.
it seems, had been given her. or. rather
put in her name, by Deming. and when
it finally was decided that as the hus-
band Of the dead woman Bolton should
have half of the estate. and that "the
memory" of the departed one right
fully belonged to Bolton. Deming re-
belled and began operations on the
costly cemetery plot.
Deming has married since the death
of his supposed wife. and Is now living
in Los Angeles in welded bliss, but
this fact is said to have had no bear
ing upon the rebellion of Deming.

Elk GRAND FORKS WOMAN
THRICE WE'D, THRICEBURIED

A Los Angeles dispatch says: The
spading up of a grave and the removal
of the remains of woman whom three
men had called wife, from a costly
plot In the choicest portion of Rose
dale cemetery, to an unmarked and I'M
cared for grave in the poorest portion
OF the burying ground, mark the clos
ing chapter In romance that had the
width of the continent and three states
for its setting.
When Mrs. H. c. Deming, alias Mrs.
Edwin Bolton, and one time Mrs. Gam
BILE, died in this city in July of 1903,
her husband, or the man who thought
himself such, purchased $500 lot at
Rosedole and there the interment took
place. Some time afterward, when
time had sweetened her memory, he
decided to secure more costly burial
plot, and purchased a $500 lot ON the
crest of knoll, where the remains
were reinterred.
Like wine, the memory of the wo-
man he called wife grew stronger with
age, and he later decided to rear
costly monument to her memory. He
arranged for the designing and erec-
ton of marble and granite affair to
cost $1,40O.
In due time this was installed on the
costly lot and Deming had a nice
white granite marker set at one side
of the big shaft inscribed Mamie
Deming." On the other side he had
a similar marker set, beating his
own name, with the place for the date
of his death left blank.
Sudden Change Of Heart
h nd hf, xry{fr
last resting place arranged to his lils-
sion of sentiment
A suit entered for the estate left
by Mrs. Deming. alias Mrs. Bolton,
and it developed that, prior to her mar
riage to Deming. she had neglected to
obtain divorce from Bolton.
Judge Gibbs issued decree that
one-half of the estate should go to
Bolton, and that Deming should have
the remaining half.
This made Deming angry, according
to all reports, and things became live
ly around the costly burial plot In
Rosedale
The grave of Mrs. Deming, alias Mrs.
Bolton. was opened and with scant
ceremony, in fact none at all 1T Is
aVerreQ the remains were taken out
and placed in the poorest portion of
the cemetery and the new grave left
unmarked.
This left the big $1,400 monument
standing alone on the expensive plot.
The monument had not been paid for
and after a deal of negotiating the
sculptor man who stood to lose his
money regained title to the big shaft.
The name of Deming was cut into
the front and sides of the monument
and the marble cutter worked almost
a day cutting these names OF so that
the monument could be resold.
Trouble had not ceased for the mon
ument man. as he could not remove
his $1,400 pile of stone from the lot
owned by Deming. Again the monu-
ment person was up against trouble.
He finally compromised by buying
the lot. and now he says he will use
If for his own last resting place.
The marker bearing the name of
Mamie Deming" was carried away
and lies UNDECIDED among a number of
others awaiting the opportunity to
have the legend removed, and other
one chiseled on its face. The marker
with Deming's name on it still stands
