rUNEHAL OV JAMES R. DICKSON
Dr. HcLeod Conducted Services At
( the Residence.
The funeral of the late James It.
Dickson was held yesterday afternoon
from the family residence on QUlnuy
avemio, and burial was triads In the
Duntnoro cemetery. Meart-breaklngf, In
deed, wns the final scene, where the
father nnd brother, crushed with Brief,
nnd the sister, so doubly bereaved in
the rmst year, were surrounded with a
multitude of weeping friends who do
plorcd this calamity.
Tho funeral services were conducted
at the residence, which was fairly
bloomliiftr with flowers, the last tribute
to tho young man whose llfo was so
like a flower In Its beauty.
Kov. Dr. McLood made brief remarks,
In which he spoke with emotion of the
dead, who, ho said, deserved tho title
of a model young man. The sudden
Providence which had removed him
from earth would not be understood
until the day of clear vision, when sor
row shall bo Interpreted and the night
of gloom bo transformed Into sunshine.
"A life of such character," Bald the
doctor, "though put out In sudden
death, must be snld to be absent from
the body, but present with the 'Lord."
A pathetic feature of the services was
the singing by Miss Pomeroy, of Troy,
Pa., of tho last song which James Dick
son heard in life. It wns u sad llttlo
song from the German, "Conceal Those
Hopes," to which he had listened the
night before, when calling at tho home
of Dr. MoLeod, where Miss Pomeroy
has been a guest. John T. Watklns
sang "My Redeemer," by Dudley Buck.
Among those attending tho funeral
were many men connected with the
Hillside Coal and Iron company offices.
Those offices were all closed In defer
ence to the deceased. The honorary
pall-bearcrs were from tho engineer
corps to which he belonged. They were:
H. E. Yewens, A. E. Yetter, J. W. Page,
John H.. Williams, Matthew Jeffrey, J.
R. Travis. The active bearers were
Princeton men, collegemates of Mr.
Dickson. They were: H. C. Cochrane
and Clarence Hastings, of New York;
Harry W. Lathrope, George Haines La
thrope, Harold Watres and Frank
Linen, of this city. Interment was
made In Dunmorc. Director Price was
In charge of the funeral.
Among the out-of-town friends pres
ent were: Rev. and Mrs. James Stuart
Dickson nnd son, of Philadelphia; Rev.
and Mrs. Spencer Dickson, Miss Mitch
ell, of Mt. Carmel; Mr. and Mrs. Leslie
Wilson, Thomas Wilson, of Blngham
ton; Miss Julia HIckok, of Marietta:
Miss Roe, of Philadelphia; Mrs. David
Stone and son, of Wllkes-Bane.

WEDDED FIFTY YEARS.
Rev. and Mrs. Joseph Madison Cele
brate Their Anniversary.
Rev. Joseph Madison nnd wife cele
brated the firtlcth anniversary of their
wedding yesterday, at their homo on
Olive street. Greatly beloved In Elm
Park church, as In nil the communities
where they have lived, this devoted pair
lu the evening of their lives Were affec
tionately remembered by their friends.
Rev. Joseph Madison and Phoebe
Wnllace were united In matrimony by
Rev. Henry Needle, May 22, 18G2. If
there Is anything in a name, they were
well-Joined together. A needle Implies
thread. A needle and thread imply a
binding together.
On the fiftieth nnVilveraary of their
wedding day, Dr. C. M. Glftln, pastor of
Elm Park church, and wife came to tho
Madison residence, 723 Olive street, and
In behalf of his congregation presented
the bridegroom with a golden orange In
tho form of a bank containing ten five
dollar gold coins, after which Mrs. Olf
fln, In a pleasing manner, handed the
bride a Jewel box, ahd on opening It
found five ten-dollnr gold pieces, making
the bride equal to the bridegroom.
Tho children of Mr. and Mrs. Madi
son remembered their parents with a
purse of $25. Tho only relatives present
were Mrs. Puscoo, their daughter, and
Miss Louise, their grnnddaughter.
A number of friends of the counlc
came In the afternoon nnd congratu
lated themf after which they were
served light refreshments.
Mr.1 and Mrs. Madison wish, through
the press, to thank all who contributed
so liberally to the occasion,
root hollow Fas
troubles op its own
Matrimonial Mix-Up That Is a Rec
ord Breaker Causes the Arrest
of One Man for Bigamy.
Root Hollow, In Wyoming county,
has a matrimonial mlx-up that Is caus
ing all kinds of conjecture and excite
ment in that quiet community.
Sixteen years ago Miss Ida Cooper, of
Root Hollow, was wooed, won and
wedded by George Camp, of Lemon,
also in Wyoming county. A daughter
was born to them, who lives with the
mother In the Hollow. About a year
after the marriage, Camp disappeared
and about eleven years ago his wife
was notified by his mother that he had
died in a Western state.
Mrs. Camp supposed herself a widow,
and when, some time later, Coray Al
len asked her If she would, she said
yts and she was married for the second
time.
Several children resulted from this
union and everything wont well until
last summer, when Allen left his wife
und last November married Alice Cap
well, a widow, without thci formality of
securing a divorce.
Yesterday Mrs. Camp-Allen apeparod
before Justice of the Peace W. S. Kutss,
of 'Junkhannock, and swore out a war
rant for the arrest of Allen on a chaiae
of bigamy. At the hearing, All.m
called several of Camp's relatives, who
testified that ho Is not dead and that
he paid a visit to friends at Factory
ville last winter. Upon this showing,
Allen was discharged and a search is
now to be made for Camp.
Mrs, Camp-Allen has two families,
but no husband and AUpn has two
vives, one real and the other only an
alleged widow.
PROPERTY OWNERS TO
RESIST PAYMENT
Believe That Under Sturges Decision
the North Main Avenue Pave
Is Unjust.
A number of North Main avenue
'property owners yesterday took legal
steps to resist the payment of tho
portion of the cost assessed against
them, on the ground that the assess
ment was not properly made, inasmuch
as it provides not only for the payment
of the cost of the pave, but for keep
ing lt-in repair for a period of ten
years.
Tho Supremo court decided in the
Sturges case recently that tho city can
not ask the property owner to assume
the cost of keeping the pave In repair,
which it virtually does when it makes
the contract with tho understanding
that they must keep tho pave In repair
for a specified length of time.
Those who began proceedings yester
day were William Blight, Thomas F.
Reese, Edward Roderick and the
Uriah McDonnell estate. Tho latter has
two cases. All of tho above aro repre
sented by Attorneys H. S. Alworth
and Charles E. Olver. City Solicitor
Watson, when teen after tho suits wqro
begun, said:
"There Is between $10,000 and $50,000
still duo on tho North Main avenue
pave, but this amount Is protected by
liens. The people of that thoroughfaro
wanted a pave, they were given a pave
and I say to you that they will pay
for that pave. Tho litigants aro look
ing for a loophole to escape the pay
ment of their shato of that great Im
provement. They will be convinced
later that they cannot uvoid tho pay
ment of a just claim In that way."
