DAILY AND THURSTON.
They are Invited to Assist in Lay
ing the Corner Stone.
Mr.. Bogue Approves the Date Sc
lected and Will Aid.
The Day will End with a Reception
at the Capitol.

Everything indicates that history
will be made at the laying of the corner
stone of the new Union Pacific shops.
The significant event will occur July 10,
in the morning of the second day of the
Colorado and Wyoming iremen's tour
nament.
The date indicated was selected some
time since subject to the approval OF Chief
Engineer V. g. Bogue, of the Union Pa
cifc. The gentleman passed east in his
private car yesterday morning. While
here he gave committeeman Jno. +. Car
roll, t. A. Kent, j. K. jeffrey and f. E.
Addoms an audience and at once evinced
a lively in the corner stone project. The
date fixed was, he said. entirely s~atisfac-
tory. Mr.. Bogue kindly volunteered to
assist to the extent OF his power in max
ing the affair a success. That the citizens
first interested themselves in the matter
seemed especially gratifying to the gen.
tleman.
A special meeting of the corner stone
arrangement committee was hurriedly
called fo- 2 O'Clock p. IN. at tie office OF
the secretary of the board of trade and
all of the members were present when
Chairman jeffrey raped for order. The
Bogue i%nterviewers reported and were dis
charged with a vote of thanks.
Now commenced an interested discuss
ion on ways and means. Chairman jeff
rey submitted two letters of invitation to
tho committee. One was to Hon. VIM.
DAILY of Rawlins. grand master Mason Of
Wyoming, and the other to Hon. John
Nj. Thurston, the distinguished Nebraska
orator and general attorney for the Union
Pacific. The former was requested to lay
the corner stone according to the Masonic
rites; the second to deliver the grafton of
the day. 1t is almost certain that the
gentlemen will favor the committee and
crafty the citizens with favorable re-
sponses. Each will receive private letters
on the subject from Cheyenne friends.
Mr.. Thurston Is an exceedingly able and
eloquent thorough western man who is
very friendly to Wyoming and Cheyenne,
while the exalted position held by Mr..
DAILY is a guarantee of his fitness for the
performance of the duty to which he has
been called.
1t is probable hat at the suggestion OF
the committee Governor Werren will hold
a reception in the executive department
the evening of July 10. In conjunction
there will be a promenade concert and
light luncheon. This will give all the Wis
itors an opportunity to meet the gov
ernor and view Wyoming's ~statehouse,
which will be brilliantly illuminated on
the occasion.
All military and civic ~socities are in
vited to participate in the ceremonies.
These committees we're appointed and
will proceed to business at once.
