Powell, of Madrid. Before the hour appointed for the ceremony, the guests to the Lumber of one hun- dred had gathered in the spacious parlors and awaited the appearance of the bridal party. Miss Clara Knapp presided at the piano and pre- cisely at high noon the strains of the wedding march were heard and the bridal procession, led by the Rev. James Thompson, of Norwood, enter- ed the parlor and took their places under an arch of holly and ever- greens, banked with ferns, holly and a profusion of cut flowers. The bride looked charming in white brocade silk with mousseline de soie lace, carrying bridal roses. The at- tendants were the bride's nieces, Grace Louise and Margaret Gage Fletcher, dressed in white with bunches of flowers and holly. After the short but impressive cer- emony was performed, congratula- tions were offered, after which the guests repaired to the dining room where a bountiful repast was served. Many beautiful and costly presents were received, showing the esteem in which the bride and groom are held by their many friends.

Hale, and is well known in tbis vicinity as a young lady of estimable characteristics and worth. Mr. and Mrs. Powell will make Madrid their future home.

At a meeting of the Central Pas- senger Association at Chicago recent- ly, there was a split on the question of mileage books and the Vanderbilt lines gave notice that they would issue a ticket of their own which will be good for transportation when offered to the conductor. Ten roads will follow the lead of the Vander- bilt lines and issue this class of tickets. It is not certain at what date they will be able to get out the tickets, but it is expected that they will have them for sale by the first of the year or within a short time after that. This will be a great advantage to travelers who will be saved the annoyance of exchanging the mileage coupons for tram tickets.
