6TH. STREET Brother of Former Minnesota Governor Claims Bride Coming From India Served With Salvation Army's Front Line Forces in France as "Doughnut Boy" From the trenches in France, Nicholas G. Van Sant, 72-year-old Salvation Army "doughnut boy," followed Cupid's trail to Omaha where he was married yesterday to Miss Daily Wood, 49 years old, who traveled from Calcutta. India, to become his bride. Van Kant is a brother of uel R.

Van Sant of Minneapolis, former governor of Minnesota, and has several nephews living in the Twin Cities. Relatives Not Surprised-But Mr. Van Sant didn't surprise his relatives or intimate friends by getting married, lie became engaged to Miss Wood just before leaving for France last winter and she promised to leave Calcutta, where she had been principal of a government school for the last nine years, and come back to America after it was all over. When Mr. Van Sant reached New York last September after months of activity on the fighting line, he told Miss Wood that it was time to leave India forever.

She sailed in December and a week ago arrived in San Francisco. The couple met at the home of Mr. Van Saut's older brother, A. Clark Van Sant, in Omaha. With bis bride, Mr.

Van Sant will leave in a few days for Sterling, 111., where he is president of the Sterling State bank. It was in Sterling almost a year ago where tho three-score-and-ten banker felt his pulse quicken with eagerness to get into the war. Bound to Get to France. Ho was too old for tho army. lie was a veteran of the Civil war, fighting side by side with former Gov.

ernor Van Sant as soldiers in an Illinois regiment. Mr. Van Sant realized only one thing he had to get to France. So he abandoned his banking business and, aided by some experience as a scientist, he joined the Salvation Army overseas force. Mr.

Van Sant is believed by war workers to be the oldest man who lived in the trenches. For months tho veteran toiled in a wine cellar within rifle shot of the Huns and slept in a dugout. Everyone called him "dad" in France. Ho was known all along the line. Mr.

Van Sant, his age tho only indication that he had fought on Civil war battlefields, became a young man in France. His spirit inspired every soldier who met him. In September, 1917, Mr. Van Sant's former wife was killed in an automobile accident in Iowa while enroute to Sterling, and he was severely injured. Hi rade SALE STARTS SATURDAY, JAN.
