ORDER OF NEPTUNE.
1t is Established and the Officers
Named.
AN AMUSING TIME AT THE BEACH.
The Reception and Street Parade-The Drill
of the Louisiana Rifles-Eccles
Present-Notes.

The busy Ogden depot was more than
usually alive yesterday morning at 10
o'clock when the royal retinue, the Louisi-
ana Rifles, Mayor Kiesel, the city council,
and an Ogden band arrived ON the plat
forms to take the special train which was
to convey them to Salt Lake. The playing
of the band, the flashing of the uniforms,
the screaming of the engines and the
shouts of the crowd made up pandemo-
mum of sights and sounds long TO be remem-
bered, and one could almost forget he lived
in Thomas governed Utah and imagined
that he was watching the progress OF some
real king and princess through their loyal
dominions; it was remarkable how the
spirit of burlesque that one would think
should pervade whole affair of that sort
was swallowed up and turned into the
most earnest kind of zeal by the general
enthusiasm.
The train consisted ofe five coaches
crammed to the platform: the run was as
swift as that of HERALD special on the
other road; at Woods Cross the Salt Lake
reception committee, consisting of Mayor
Scott, Mr.. Treweek, president of the min
ing exchange, Mr.. Whitney, of The HER
ALD and Mr.. Sleater, president of the Fed
Grated Trades, boarded the train and were
ushered into the royal presence, being pre-
sented by Mr.. ingalls, of the Union Pacific
and Mayor Keisel; with uncovered heads
the Salt Lake quartette stood, and endeav
ored to be heard above the combined thun
der of the train and the polka the band wa
playing three feet away. The welcome
was understood if not heard, aud few
minutes later the screech of the engin,
announced Salt Lake, and the hustle O
preparation ensued.

The Queen and Kings Identity.

The publica ton in THE HERALD of Fri
day morning of the names of the king and
queen created the biggest kind of sensa-
ton.
Our last guess proved to be correct
one. For some reason, however, known
only to themselves, at the last moment,
John Q. Cannon resigned and his place was
filed by J. Henry Behan, of New Orleans.
The greatest curiosity conferred in the
queen and when the mask was removed
and Miss Minerva Anderson was named as
the queen, there was great rejoicing and
she was most cordially welcomed with
hearty applause.
After this several OF His Majesty's loyal
subjects were called up to be decorated.
Hon. A. H. Nelson received the title of
First Prince Of the realm and was invested
with the brilliant star of the Orient.
Major Levy received the order of Duke
of California.
! MIR. Ridgley, Duke of Kansas.
! Captain Foy, KiLg of the Cowboys, re
ceived the title OF Duke of American plains
amid great applause.
Mr.. Ben. Rich, Duke of finances.
Mr. Wadsworth, Duke of Morgan.
d. Fl. Adams was created a Duke of the
realm.
Miss Josie Pickles was created Duchess
of Orleans.

ON GARFIELD'S SANDS.
The Order Of Neptune-The Numerous Titles
and Honors Conferred.

When it was known that the royal party
was to leave the depot at 2:45, the rush to
the station was immense. Everybody
wanted to see Rex III and everybody's sis
ter wanted to see the queen. The royal
party were little tardy, but when they
reached the spot the ''ohs'' and ''ahs" re-
minded one of country fair balloon as
cension. isn't she pretty?n and "What
a nice looking man he is" ooh n.y. what
splendid looking woman 'Isn't he hand
sonnet" and thousand like expressions
greeted the ear. The royal party were
soon seated and away went the train. It
consisted of five coaches and was crowded.
The governor and other territorial officials,
the mayor and city council of Ogden, the
mayor and council of Salt Lake, the boards
of trade of the two cities and the Louisiana
Rifles made up the party.
The run to Garfield was made in an In
credibly short time with no events worth
mentioning, and when there the royal party
at once Invested itself of it's clothing and
plunged intosthe vast expanse of natura
pickle. Allbut the queen. Her gracious
majesty contented herself with stand
ing on the pavilion and gazing at the
frantic efforts of her royal consort who
struggled alternately with his bathing suit

the salt pillows which insisted on rushing
up his nose and adding much to his dis
comfort.
But finally the royal magnate Grief

through the sand, took a shower oath ant
after changing socks appeared once NOR,
before the multitude.
A crowd King of Egypt then was NOR,

They gazed and gazed at the pair O
kings ard the queen. They sized up TIL
maids OF honor and passed sundry remark

would rush off for pop corn.

Was the Carnival a Success.

The idea of the carnival was to advertise
Ogden by associating the name of the city
with as big an undertaking as the produc-
ton of the Mardi Gras and to bring many
thousand people to Ogden to sell them real
estate. The number of visitors from the
outside was disappointing. At no TINA
was the city crowded, and the carnival
palace was only comfortably filled on one
evening during the carnival. The people
of Ogden were led to believe that $4,000
strangers would be in the city and on the
strength of these big predictions they
made preparations to feed 10000
people. The proprietor of one
of these restaurants, investing all his
money in the venture, finding that he had
been grossly deceived and was financially
ruined, committed suicide. After this
restaurant was closed the others had
scarcely enough customers to pay expenses.
The attempt to spread the festivities over
five days was criticised by people who
came for one day, who OH finding that the
only day entertainment was a contest of
knights fitting, which was not as interest
| ing TO them as a game Of base ball would
have been.
The people took the Mardi Gras feature
too seriously, failing to catch the spirit of
mythology and fiction, but looked on the
performance as matter-of-fact realism.
Even the balls were heavy affairs, the
dancers at no time relaxing into the wild
abandonment peculiar TO Mardi Gras balls.
The cowboys and Indians We're understood
and appreciated, and the exhibition given
by the Shoshone and Bannocks smacked
more of the Mardi Gras spirit than any
other feature. The knights fitting tourna-
ments, both in costume and riding, was q
very creditable presentation of the ancient
paStime, though the lack of enthusiasm
among the spectator rs made it tame and
tedious.
The preparations for the carniva! were
elaborate and well carried out The car
nival palace was large enough TO seat 6,0Ct
people and had splendid dancing floor
though the decorations were rather sparce
AS representation of the Mardi Gras the
effort was in "a great way failure but as
hippodrome affair with Indians and cow
boys the show was q success.
The intense heat did much to mar tn,
pleasure of the occasion. The merchants
who paid out their money like water ar,
now counting up and asking, did it pay:'

The royal party was exquisitely dressed
and some of the costumes rarely beautiful

MONEY ALL GONE.
MANY Pensioners Will Have to Wait tt

Many Pensioners Will Have to Wait Till
July Threat Increase of Allowances.
WASHINGTON, June cit is stated at
the Pension Office that the deficiency in
the amountof funds in the hands of the
different pension agents, which has re-
suited in the announcement by the
agent at indianapolis that large num-
Der of pensioners will be compelled to
wait until July l for the payment of
their pensions, has been caused by the
unusually large number of allowances
made by the Pension Office under the
present Administration and particularly
since General Raum's term began.
The great amount of allowances has
been largely in original cases. There
have been issued alread 1000 more orig
inal pensions than were issued during
the last fiscal year. r-
Another drain upon the appropriation,
it is said, was the act of March 1, 1890,
which increased to S72 per month all
pensions for total disability requiring
the aid and attendance of another per-
son. The number of these cases is
large and involves the expenditure Of a
large amount of money.
The final payments by the pension
agents will not be completed until about
June 20, and those who have not been
paid by that time will be compelled to
wait only few days until the appropri-
alton for the next fiscal year becomes
available July 1.

Masked Men Hold Up q Train In North

Masked Men Hold Up a Train In North
Dakota.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 9.-The North
ern Pacific eastbound passenger train
which arrived here last night was
robbed by masked men near New Salem,
N. D., Saturday night.
Two miles east of New Salem and
twenty-five miles west of Mandan the
engineer and fireman were surprised by
two masked men climbing over the
tender and backed by big revolyers, or
dering the train stopped. The COM
mand was obeyed.
Express Messenger Angevine, hear
ing shots fired forward and suspecting
something, hid $500 in money from the
safe, locked the small safe, put out the
lights and ran back to New Salem.
The mail car was first tackled by the
robbers. Only one mail agent was in
the car and he Immediately obeyed
orders by turning over the mail matter,
consisting of forty-seven mail pouches
and seven registered packages. Anum-
Der of registered letters were rified and
then the two robbers turned their at
tention to the express car. This they
found deserted much to their chagrin,
and installing the fireman for the mes
senger, ordered him at the point of
pistols to open the safe. He protested
that he knew nothing about it and
finally satisfied the robbers.
Then the train backed to New Salem
and finally came east. The express
messenger remained incognito and got
on the train as it left New Salem.
The passengers were not touched.
One put his head out of the window
during the delay, but was told to get his
head back and a bullet whizzed past his
head as reminder that orders had bet
ter be obeyed.
A posse of men with the sheriff,
mounted and armed, left Mandan on a
special train for the scene of the rob-
berry.
The robbers compelled Engineer
Kiimartin to break in the door of the
postal car. Only two masked men were
seen at any one time, and suspicious
are rife that only two were engaged in
the work ..f.
