Weber, a popular fireman on the Altoona side of the middle division, and Miss Helen Graham, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Graham, the florist, of 2019 Cameron street, were made husband and wife.

The highest number of domestic money orders heretofore issued in one day was 150, but this was far exceeded yesterday, as the following record shows: Two hundred and thirty-three domestic orders, $1,456.06; fifteen international orders, $105.26 eleven remittances received from other offices, $1,392.00; forty one orders paid, $493.88.

There were sold at the stamp window cards, stamps and envelopes to the amount of $297.84. -------------------------------------------- An Entertaining Lecture Dr. F. Crisston lectured to ladies yesterday in the opera house, the audience being well pleased and this appreciation was given expression afterward in words of hearty approval. His theme was the beauty, form and physical culture of woman, and his argument was too many women think that after they are married it matters not how they look or dress. He said the reverse was the truth, and that she should take measures to be always attractive, so the husband will never cease to court his wife, even in old age. His remarks on physical culture were particularly instructive. He will lecture again this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. ---------------------------------------- Annie Whiteman PABlair Rootsweb List Administrator Annie Whiteman/Steve Patz Blair County Coordinators http://www.rootsweb.com/~pablair
