MARRIED AT MARION, o.
A. w. Dickson and Mrs. Eugene G.
Robinson Welded,


Alexander Walker Dickson, of this
city, and Mrs. Eugene Covent Robin
son were married on Wednesday at the
residence Of the brides mother, Mrs. d.
$. CoVent, in Marion, o. Rev. James
Stuart Dickson, OF Philadelphia, as
sisted by Rev. yelling Z. Thomas, OF
Marion, performed the ceremony. After
a brief journey, Mr.. and Mrs. Dickson
will return to their home on Quincy
avenue, where they will welcome the
friends who are happy to offer con-
gratulations.
Mr.. Dickson is one of the foremost
citizens of Scranton, honored and re-
spected beyond the favor that falls to
the lot of most men. Those residents
of this city who met the bride during
the sessions of the General Assembly
of the Presbyterian church at Mime
apolis last May are looking forward
with much pleasure to welcoming her,
since If one-half the nice things said
about her by the people from her home
town are true, she will be a most de-
sirable acquisition to Scranton.
The marriage is the outcome of
little romance, as a year or two ago
the lady who is now Mr.. Dicksons
bride was passing through the city,
when her father, who accompanied her
became seriously i'll, too i'll, in fact, to
travel farther He wished to see n
Presbyterian clergyman, but as that
was the date of clerical vacations, none
could be found. Mr.. Dickson was fn-
ally asked to visit the sick man, who
soon after died at the hotel to which

demeanor was committed on December

While common council was passing
the Lackawanna telephone ordinance
on third reading last night, select coun-
Gil was engaged in the passage Of the
following resolution.
That the following amendment be
added to section IS, article 6, page 10
In manual of councils: That no reso-
luton or ordinance, which Is in sub
stance, in nature, or in intent and
purpose, the same as one once reject
ed by this council, shall be Introduced
during the same fiscal year"
Common council passed the telephone
ordinance and select council adopted
the resolution. The telephone ordin-
ance was defeated in select council
the last time it was running the gauntl-
let.
Mr.. Coyne. chairman of the commit
tee on rules introduced the resolution,
but says he does not know that It is
loaded for any particular measure at
present anticipated. 1t was handed
to him by another member of council.
Mr.. Lansing moved to indefinitely
postpone action but his motion was
defeated by an overwhe lining vote.
There was no roll call on the adoption
OF the resolution and it will not be
surprising if the question is raised that
the resolution is imperative because
the necessary two-thirds vote is not
recorded in its favor.
