MARTIN - LOWE.

  Mr. Joseph S. Martin and Miss Clara M. Lowe, both of Altoona, were married 
at St. Mark's Catholic church last evening, in the presence of a number of 
invited guests.  The procession march was played by the bride's brother, Mr. 
John Lowe, as the bridal party took their places at the altar.  The Rev. 
Giblin, assistant pastor of the church, at 8 o'clock performed the ceremony.  
The bride's attendant was Miss Margaret Martin, a sister of the groom, and 
Mr. Edgar R. Martin, a nephew of the bride, attended the groom.  Following 
the ceremony a reception was tendered at the home of the bride, 1104 Seventh 
avenue.  The bride was handsomely attired in white and carried a large 
bouquet of bridal roses.  The bride is a daughter of Mrs. Rebecca J. Lowe 
and is a popular young lady.  Mr. Martin is known to every follower of base 
ball and is one of the most popular players in the Tri-State league.  Last 
season he played in the outfield for the Harrisburg team and when appearing 
on the Altoona diamond was greeted with applause, demonstrating his 
popularity.  "Silent Joe," as he is known to the base ball world, has had a 
new home built at 519 Crawford avenue, and which he has finely furnished, to 
which place he took his bride and where they will reside in the future.
