In the Evening.
,Cyrene oommandsty K. T., Of this city,
has reputation nearly national for It'd
enterprise and public spirited dispOSition
LIS last move was the entertainment yester'
day Of tho Ohio Communicates whose
names we give below.
The hall had been splendldly decorated
and over Grubb's jewelry house was AZ
immense cross with the talismanic words
SIN Hoe signo vincess' and also over the
door OF Washington Hall, the card "Wel
come Sir Knighs." Many houses in Thu
city were decorated and the city wore
holiday appearance.
At 10 o'clock the Knights Of Cyrenl
Commandery and such visiting ones as de
sired, assembled at Masonic Temple or
the corner Of Twelfth and Market streets
and shortly after left for the B. & o. depot
under command Of L. q. NJ. A. Chandler
and headed by Kramer's full band. A
the depot the knights, while awaiting tht
arrival OF the train, were put through TIL
various eyolulions and sword exercises o
their drill, all Of which were well execut
ed. Upon the arrival Of the train the re
representatives. Of Lancaster, Cyprus ant
Ely Communicates were fttingly re
ceived and marched TO the New Mcclure
by way OF Sixteenth and Market streets
and attracted general attention and I'D
miration at the facility with which the!
performed the incidents Of drill and stree
maneuveH.
Attic Mcclure House the Cyrene open
cd ranks and allowed the visiting Com
manderies to pass through to the hotel
The knights were then dismissed unit
the parade at $50, at which q large mum
her, estimated at fifty, OF our home Com
manderies besides the visitors, again as
gembled at the Temple and took up theil
line OF march through the following street.
with Kramer in advance:
Up Market 10 Ninth, down Ninth t.
Main, down Main to Twenty.second, az
Twenty.second to Market, up Market tc
Sixteenth, up Sixteenth TO Chapline, al
Chapline 10 Twelfth, down Twelfth to thu
Temple, and then dismissed.
The procession was one OF the finest erel
seen In this city, and certainly no more
imposing one ever took place. The turn
ont was large despite the muddy streets
and the weather Of day or two previous
TIE BANQUET.
At five o'clock the Sir knights formed
in line in the vestibule without the dining
room, and marched to the banquet hall
Here an appetiZing scene presented ITSELF
The table iairly..groaned-groaned is the
proper term, we believe under The
weight Of the delicaces and substantial'
spread upon the board. Epicurus, had he
gazed upon the feast, could not have sug
gested any improvement, nor longed tol
any dish that was not there.
10 Mr.. Norton and his assistants the
greatest need OF praise is due for the taste
lul arrangement Of the tables and the
beautiful decoration Of the dining hall
Among the floral displays, the most note
worthy was that prepared by Mr.. John
Piarr, OF Pleasant Valley, and grazing a
prominet point in the extreme end OF the
hall. Everywhere the eye was directed
something beautiful met the gaze.
OF the menu, none but those who par
took can testify to It's excellence, and from
the relish with which everything was at
tackled, we have no hesitation in saying
that the universal verdict, il It could have
been recorded, would have been par ercsl
leRce. Below weGiye the @
