A very pretty wedding occurred on
Wednesday evening at the home Of Mr..
and Mrs. Ralph Robinson, on Susque-
hanna avenue, when their only daugh-
ter, Isabella, was married to John Pyne.
The ceremony took place at 8 o'clock
in the presence of about one hundred
and fifty guests. The nuptial knot was
tied by Rev. Robert r. Thompson, pas
tor Of the Baptist church, of which the
bride was a member. William Pyne,
brother of the groom, acted as best
man and his wife was bridesmaid. In
keeping with the wedding march, play
Cd by Mrs. Kent Jones, the bridal par
tY entered the parlor, the groom and
best man preceding and followed by the
bridesmaid and then the bride leaning
on the arm OF her father. AS the
words which made them man and wife
We're pronounced 80 Promise Me" was
played by Mrs. Jones on the organ.
The house was very prettily decorated
with running pine and after the cere-
nOny was over a bOuntisul repaSt was
$ rived to the guests. Mr. and Mrs.
Pyne were tho recipients of many pres
cnts. They will, for the present, make
their home with the brides parents.
The burglars, who have been disturb
ing the peaceful slumhers of our towns
people have apparently became relig-
iously inclined. Their entrances this
week have been made in the Presbytar-
ian and Methodist churches, evidently
in search of the silver communion sets.
Nothing of great value was taken by
them at either time. 1t would undoubt-
Cdly be a good thing for these thieves
If they would go into churches more
hut at times when divine services are
held. They are certainly in need of
religious instruction and worthy mis-
siOnary subjects. The pastors and pCo-
pie Of all the churches extend Il hearty
welcome to these ramblerS of the night
to come within their churches when
stated services are being held, and will
endeavOr to bring about reformation
within their lives that may save them
from less years of life behind prison
bars than now awaits them in their
present course.
