 At o'clock yesterday afternoon MT. S. Browne Gibson and Miss Marie T. Mill ner were made man and wife in the parsonage of St. Johns church, corner of Seventeenth street and Avenue E. Rev.

This plan did not suit the etemperamentS of the young peo- pie, and they took matters entirely into their own hands and were married as stated above

He has the implicit confidence of his superior officers and numbers his friends by his acquaint- ances The bride is a daughter of MT. James Milner, the well-known stock deal- CT, of the Southside.

A Confusion Of Names,

although Scotia is now known to
mean Scotland, it once was the name of
Ireland. Two centuries before the birth
OF Christ Ireland was known to the
Greeks as Juvenca. Caesar called it Hi
hernia, as did also Ptolemy in his map
OF that island. It is said the Phoni-
clans first gave Ireland the name Of Hi.
bernla, meaning thereby utmost Of
last habitation." for beyond that land
westward the Phenicians never extend
ed their voyages. Toward the decline Of
the Roman empire the country began to
be called Scotia, Il name retained hy
the monastic writers until the eleventh
century, when the name Scotia, having
passed to modern Scotland, the ancient
lame OF Hibernia began to be again
used.-San Francisco Chronicle.

he declined. His reason was that he had
to be i'll London on a certain day be-
cause he had made an engagement with

learn whether Lord Leighton had actu-
ally kept this engagement, and he
found that when the artist was ascend
