Gibbs--Watts.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. N. c..
Watts was the scene of pretty we'd
ding Wednesday night when their
daughter, Miss Leta, became the bride
of Mr.. VIM. Wayt Gibbs, a well known
young Staunton man who now resides
in Washington. Only few relatives
and friends witnessed the ceremony
which was performed by Rev. DR.. A.
M. Fraser of the First Presbyterian
church. Promptly at 9 o'clock the
bride entered the drawing room on the
arm of her father, Mr.. N. G. Watts,
and was met by the groom accompa-
MED by his best man, Mr.. Frank p.
Mcfarland. She was handsomely
gowned in duchess satin trimmed in
real lace and silver. Mrs. Herbert A.
Myer, of Washington, sister of the
bride was the matron of honor and
wore gown of peach colored MESA
line trimmed in gold. House decora-
tions were elegant and were tasteful iu
the extreme. Miss Irene Haislip d.
rected the music. An informal recep-
ton followed the ceremony to which
only the immediate family and few
friends were invited.
The bride is one of Staunton's most
popular young ladies, and the groom,
who is now engaged in business in
Washington, has many friends in his
native city.

Former Augusta Boy Makes Good.

The Washington Herald of Sunday
has the following about former young
Waynesboro man, which will be read
with interest: Among the many bust
ness men of Alexandria none are better
known or more thought of than Charles
Britton Swan, who was born in Way
nesboro, Augusta county, Va, thirty
five years ago.
His father, who was Confederate
soldier, moved from Waynesboro to
Charlestown, w. Va, and thence to
Washington, where the subject of this
article entered the employ of Wood
ward & Lothrop as wag on boy at 81
week.
Mr.. Swan remained with Woodward
& LoJhrop for ten years, rising to the
assistant head of one of their largest
departments.
He resigned his position with Wood
ward K Lothrop to accept one with
John Wanamaker in New York, where
he remained for two years, resigning
his position with Wanamaker to enter
in the city goods business with his
brother, Mr.. w. f. Swan, where for
about ten years they have enjoyed the
confidence and esteem of a generous
public in Alexandria.
He is cIassed among the wideawake
business men of Alexandria, and takes
the greatest interest in all movements
toward making his home town great
commercial center. Mr.. Swan is a
member of Alexandria Washington
Lodge No. %, A. F. & A. NJ, and is
director in the Retail Merchants As

stined to be valuable adjunct to the
wideawalxe Chamber of Commerce of

False Report.

Richmond, March 14.-An official
denial was issued today from the office
of the Chesapeake Il Ohio Railway
concerning the rumors sent ont recent
ly from Richmond and Cincinnati
about changes in officials. This runner
mentioned the names of Mr.. Fuller,
Mr.. Potts, Mr.. Bronson, Mr.. Elicit and
Mr.. Whitaker as among those to be
changed.
This rumOr also mentioned the fact
that the Chesapeake & Ohio had ac-
quired the Chicago, Cincinnati and
Louisville and that this would bring
about reorganization. The entire re-
port is groundless and without any
foundation whatever.

County Schools are Flour1shing.

Yesterdays Leader says: Under the
regime of Mr.. +. M. Somerville, super
intendent of county public schools,
things are looking up in Augusta coun-
ty and much is being done in the way
of better equipment aud new buildings.
A splendid 5000 school house at FISH
ersville has been erected and is now al
most ready for occupancy. 1t is pro-
posed to erect $4,000 building this
summer at Waynesboro, as the recent
ly erected building is inadequate to &C.
commodate the pupils. This school
has grown rapidly and is now about
the largest in the county. A new school
building at Basic will also be put up
this summer, at cost of perhaps 5000
or $4,000. Others are also proposed for
various parts of the county.
Never before have Augusta county
schools been so promising and never
have SO many children awaited them
selves of public school training.

10 Edit Old Dominion Sun.

The Roanoke World of Monday says:
Col. w. 1. Boone of Buena Vista, spent
Saturday and Sunday in the city, en-
route home from business trip over
the Virginian. 1t is learned on the
best authority that Colonel Boone will
assume editorial charge of the Old
Dominion Sun at Staunton, heretofore
published by Messrs. S. Brown Allen
and R. A. Fulwiler. The appointment
of the former as postmaster at Staun-
ton is the probable cause for the change.
Colonel Boone is well known in the
Virginia newspaper field and his friends
predict very material improvement in
the paper under his management.

Rev. Mr.. Str1bling Will Remain.

Tuesday there was a called meeting
of Lexington Presbytery at the First
Presbyterian church. The most i'm
portant matter before the body was the
call for the services of Rev. e. r. Strib-
ling of Waynesboro to the Tabb street
church in Petersburg. Both congrega-
tons were represented by influential
delegations, and both sides made every
effort for the services of Mr.. Stribling.
After hearing the case fully Presbytery
refused to dismiss the popular Way
nesboro pastor. The people of that
town are very much gratified at the
action of the body.

You don't have to be one in order to
mix your own paint when you have a
house to paint. Its mighty easy to buy
4 gallons of l.. & M. Paint, and gal
lon of pure Linseed Oil, and put both
in large pail and mix well together.
You will then make gallon of the best

your house.

Convict Road Camps to be Fewer

State Highway Commissioner Will
son has decided that owing to the re-
duction in his appropriation made by
the Legislature, the number of convict
road camps will have to be reduced
from IA to II or II. The General As
sembly allowed $4,000 for the convict
camps of 1910, and like sum for 1911,
but while this is an increase of $1,000
over the 1909 appropriation, it will not
suffice for the purposes indicated.
These camps or road forces generally
employ from 45 to so men, and there
has been great demand for them.
The Legislature allowed $l5O,OOO for
the State aid fund for 1910, and $780,
600 for the State aid fund of 1911. The
appropriation for 1909 was $3.50, 900, SO
it will be seen that a considerable cut
was made in this direction.

LoRtnER CASE
 ONE OF SCANDAL

The attempt to quietly appiy coat of whitewash to Senator LOT ,o,ar xbose seat in the upper house of congress was bought from cor
 r, members of the legislature, has failed It may be that i'orlnie' ,.iIs .a allowed to retain his seat in the senate, but before the eA honorating vote is taken in that body there is likely to be some interesting debate and needed pup Hcity.
 The report of the majority of the subcommittee named to make an examination of the alleged bribery in connection with the election of I.,ruiner by the Illinois legislature. excsses the senator on the ground that IS his majority was six and only four men who voted for him did so for a bribe. there were suii enough honest votes cast to have given him the senatorship.
 This verdict sets forth the gener- al theory tha, senator is legally elected unless enough purshased votes have been discovered to wipe out his majority This, Of course, will make it rather more expensive for commercial gentlemen desiring senatorial bargains. It will be nee essary hereafter to purchase not a bare majority, but ten or fifteen votes in addition to allow for net tare and depreciation. Ii this is done the purhaser will be eompara- lively safe. A few legislators may cpnfess, and return their brihe rioney. but until enough have been fkposed or confess to bring his votes below the majority, he caE retain his seat and share in the honors due a member Of the upper house of congress
 Considering this opinion advanc- ed by the senate subcomnitte is Il any wonder that the people of isore and more esnphadcsliy the1e ator as a person of wonderful Gr even adequate intelligence
