A HAPPY WEDDING.

One of the quietest and happy little weddings that has taken place in the
city for a long time, was that yesterday at the REVERE house in which miss
Elizabeth DAWE, daughter of Mr. B. DUWE, was married to Mr. Alvin GATES. Only a few
friends of the contracting parties witnessed the ceremony, which was
performed by the Rev. Stephen PHELPS, of the First Presbyterian church.

The bride looked charming in a tan colored silk with empire skirt, and basque
with deep Spanish bretelles(?). She wore a beautiful boquet of white roses
and carried a swansdown fan.

The bridegroom wore the conventional suit of black. Mr. GATES is one of the
popular conductors on the Council Bluffs and Omaha motor line.

A number of valuable presents were received by the happy couple. They go to
housekeeping at once at 2023 Avenue A.

The Nonpareil joins with many friends in wishing them a long life.
