(Special) The marriaee of Ed Kraus recently at Boulder Hill. was the culmination of courtship which last ed for twenty-five years, and was made possible only upon death of the groom's mother, past the age of a hundred, according to tne nroiner of the bride, Jerry Vandeventer, who lives in Dixie valley, east of Fal-lon. His sister. Miss Martha vande venter, had waited for twenty-five years for the man ot ner cnoice even after having spent a good part of her life in Central and toutn America, said her brother here this week after receiving an announcement of the marriage.

The romance led to engagement in St. Louis in 1902 when the mother, of Kraus, then past seventy-five vears of age, pressed the son to a promise that he would not marry until after her death. The young people thought to wait but a few years. Kraus moved to California and built a home at Boulder Hill. The young woman, pledged to rnarry him, took up musing and later entered government work which took her into Panama for several years and later to Antafa-gasta, Chile.

The bride-to-be a few weeks ago received a cablegram from her old sweetheart that the mother had passed on, and that a home was waiting her in California. Again she said "yes," but the last time in a cable message, and left for the States on the next steamer to meet her twenty-five-year lover in San Francisco where the marriage occurred.
