HOLLIDAYSBURG HAPPENINGS.

  The Philadelphia Bulletin gives the following interesting information 
concerning a coming matrimonial event: "The engagement of Mr. Sterling 
L. Rhoades, of Philadelphia, and Margaret Clyde Elliott, of 
Hollidaysburg, is announced.  Mr. Rhoades is the son of Isaac P. 
Rhoades, of Trappe, and spent his boyhood in this neighborhood, where 
he has many friends.  By devotion to duty, fidelity and ability, he has 
advanced himself in life until now he occupies the responsible position 
of claim adjuster of that great corporation, the Union Traction 
company, of Philadelphia, in which matters involving immense sums of 
money are submitted to his judgment.  This position brings him into 
contact with the highest lawyers in the city, by whom he is held in 
high esteem, not only for his great ability, but for his courtesy and 
fairness, while always so scrupulously protecting the interests of the 
company he represents.  Miss Elliott belongs to one of the oldest and 
best known families of central Pennsylvania."
