Wedding Gifts Costly.
Upstairs in the brides house one
room was set aside for the wedding
gifts. which, despite limitations from
the White house that nothing be sent
by any other than relatives and close
friends, ran into the hundreds. In de-
ference to the presidents wishes, the
houses OF congress sent no gifts Off
cially, but many members sent per
sonal remembrances. The Virginia
delegation, representing the native
state of the couple, sent loving cup.
Wytheville, the brides home town,

in voting the city dry.
Moreover this difference of s55 in
favor of 1914 is nearly offset by the
difference in feeding the prisoners
while in jail. The expense last year
was more than double that of this
year. 1t is also probable that in the
remaining days of this present month
that the difference in fines will be
entirely offset, as, SO far this month,
the amount received from fines is

sioners four weeks ago, at which time
a resolution was introduced. ordering
paving on Dakota n This reso-

While the exact number of blocks to
be put in Is not known at this time.
