An interesting wedding took place at 4 o'clock this afternoon in Augustana Lutheran church, when Miss Cecilia Nelson and Rev. J. E. Hedberg of Up-sala, Minn., were married. Miss Nel­son is better known as Sister Cecilia, as she has been at the head of Mission cottage and of the deaconess' work of the Augustana church for eight years. She came to the city nine years ago and for the first year was occupied as the pastor 'B assistant. She received her training at the deaconess' home in Omaha and Stockholm, Sweden, and was especially well fitted for her work.

Augustana church was prettily dec­orated with palms and roses for the service, which was read by Rev. Carl J. Petri, pastor of Augustana church, assisted by Rev. E. A. Jfogelstrom, di­rector of the deaconess' home in Oma­ha. J. Victor Bergquist was at the or­gan and played the "Lohengr in" bri­dal chorus for the processional and the Mendelssohn march at the close of the service. The bride was attended by her sister, Miss Elsie H. Nelson, and two of the deaconesses, the Misses Hulda Hultquist and Caroline Frank. Miss Nelson wore white and the deaconesses were in their regular garb. The bride was in a tan gown and she wore a rose in her hair and carried white roses. Eben Nelson acted as best man.

While admiring the new shade, which comes near to an electric blue, Mrs. Roosevelt conceived the idea that jif doves were woven into the goods, i t would make a handsome gown for the inaugural. When the design was com­pleted according to her ideas, it repre­sented a flock of doves flying diagonally across a blue background.

The largest dove is a little less than two inches from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other. They decrease in size until the smallest is very minute. The doves are woven in gold tinsel and in such a manner that, as the goods are held up to the light, and slowly turned, the doves seem to sink into the back­ground and slowly disappear. The work of weaving the goods was begun three weeks ago.

ONE MILLION FOB INDIANS

Negotiations with Turtle Mountain Ohippewas Entrusted to Agent Davis. BBLOOURT, N. D.—The last session of con­

gress appropriated $1,000,000 to pay the claims of the Turtle Mountain band of Chippewa In­dians for 8,000,000 acres of land lying west of the Red river and "south of the Canadian line. The Indians' claim had Men passed upon by a commission appointed by congress, headed by Senator P. 3. McCumber, which found that th!« band of Indians had as good title to the 9,000.000 acres as any Indian title known.

The act also provided tor the resubmission of the treaty to the Indians for rectification. These matters are usually bandied by some ex­pert from the department, but.the secretary de­cided to entrust the entire settlement to In­dian Agent Charles W. Davis of the Fort Tottcn agency. He caUed a council of the tribe at Belcourt for Feb. 15.

Almost every male Indian of the tribe was present. The council lasted three days, and after Agent Davis had thoroly explained every detail and effect of the act the entire band, without a dissenting vote, agreed to accept the million dollars, ana executed unanimously the release and quit-claim required by the govern­ment.

The claims had been pending about thirty years. Undoubtedly no agent of any reservation in the United States was ever Intrusted with so large an undertaking by the government. The attorneys for the Chippewas, ex-Oongressman O'Grady of New York--and C. 3. Maddox of North Dakota, have other meritorious claims for this band which congress will be requested to pass upon" later.
