HAYES - VARNER.

  At 10 o'clock yesterday morning Mr. Adolph W. Hayes, of Tyrone, and Miss 
Silvia Varner, of McAllisterville, were united in marriage by Justice of the 
Peace C. Irwin Lewis at his office on Allegheny street, the ceremony being 
performed in a quiet manner.  The groom is to become a soldier in the army 
and will leave in a few days for a southern training camp.  While he is away 
his bride will remain at her home in McAllisterville.

BECOMES A BENEDICT

  Early in the year, Adolphus W. Hayes of Tyrone enlisted in the army and was 
assigned to the Heavy Coast artillery and was sent away to Fort Moultrie, 
S.C.  The other day he returned to Tyrone, on a few days furlough.  But 
unexpectedly on Tuesday he absented himself for awhile and when he returned 
he came as a benedict, for at Hollidaysburg, he had the squire perform the 
ceremony that made him the husband of Miss Sila [sic] Varner of 
McAlisterville, Pa., and then on Wednesday he left again for his camp in 
South Carolina. Both young people are well known in Tyrone, and the wish is 
uppermost that the war may come to a successful conclusion at an early date, 
so that this young couple may again be united.
