A COUNTRY 1DYI

''Hnve you dag your grass7" asked n city chap.
of the starting farmer man,
For he thought he would not crush the swain
Beneath lis social ban.
How was your crop when you dug your Yrnss2
Did the weevils hur. your peas2
And did the canker worm destroy
Your young cucumber trees?
81 love, GOOD sir, the country air,
From the town fain would fee
And losc myself in rural dreams
Meath the potato tree
would pluck the triumph from its vile.
Thro' the parsnip meadow push.
And rest beneath the greatful shade
OF the bending cabbage bush.
"oh, faIn would be simple swain
And drive my yoke OF COWS.
And rest at noon beneath the shade
OF the rutabagn boughs.
Oh. I'd hunt the woods for the cocoanut bush
The whole of the livelong day,
Or start mt morn with the rustic hoe
To dig the hills of hay.
''And II at the noopt,ay grew faint
With my labor's strain and rush,
l would mix the milxweeds lucious milk
With the mushrooms lucious mush.
l would pluck the pineapple from the pine
But why has your color tied?"
But the farmer fell with a sickening thud.
The farmer man dead.

Arrival in Salt Lake.

Rex I and Rex II both arrived at high
noon and were given royal reception at
the depot. The various organizations were
in waiting at the station and when their
maiesties arrived they were cheered to the
Echo.
The parade left the depot few minutes
after in the following order: Ten of the
Kings knights on horseback led followed
by the Liberal band, after which were
Grant Bros. Raymond containing their
majesties and consorts and their retinues
drawn by six magnificent horses. Gov
ernor Thomas and other territorial officials
together with the Ogden and Salt Lake
city councils and citizens in carriages then
followed, succeeded by the Liberal drum
corps and the fiambeau club.
| The next body was the Louisiana Rifles,
who attracted much attention by their fine
marching and soldierly bearing. The Og-
den military band headed the cadets of the
military academy, after which came the
| Sixteenth infantry band. The central
drum corps was next and headed the com
mercial travellers who roundly cheered
| THE HERALD as they passed the office
| The Park City band headed the Federated
trades council of Utah and succeeding
| them came citizens in carriages and floats
| The parade marched on South Temple tc
West Temple, thence to Fourth South
east to Main and north to the Walker
house, where lunch was taken.

OGDEN I0ffinOs.

The city is quiet again. The cowboys
are nearly all gone. Our royal visitors
have departed for Salt Lake. The work of
clearing up the carnival grounds has
already been begun. The citizens looked
tired and worn out. A member of the re-
ception committee was seen walking the
streets with eyes half closed and dragging
his feet as if they were made of lead. He
stated that in the past seventy-two hours
he had had less than six hours good sleep.
G. A. Sproal, of the Elko Free Press was
in the city during the latter part of the
carnival.
A little fire in barn belonging to MIR.
Freeman, near the court house, occasioned
some alarm during the carnival parade.
The grand march at the carnival palace
on Friday night, did by q. A. d'Hemecourt
and professor Thompson, eclipsed anything
ever seen in the west.
The police record during the carnival
week shows eighty-nine arrests made.
There were nearly one hundred policemen
on duty during the carnival.
The funeral of John M. Dyer occurred al
o'clock on last Friday, under the auspices
of the knights of Pythias.

A Kick Over the Route.

There was big fund of suppressed
wrath on the part of many who took part
in the procession and any amount of indig
nation fully expressed on the part of those
who waited on the streets-at the line of
march adopted. Instead of passing up
South Temple to Main, to allow the visitors
who were craning their necks for sight
of the church buildings they had read so
much ola view of the temple, tabernacle,
Zion's bank, the Progress building, the
Scott Auerbach building, and the busiest
part of Main street generally, the process
sion switched off West Temple, went south
to Second South, thence to Fourth South
and thence back to the Walker, where they
disbanded, leaving 5000 to 10000 people
iammed on both sides of the street from
South Temple to Second South, waiting In
vain in the sun in the hope of catching
sight of Rex aud Regina and the whole
turnout, and giving the strangers mere
squint of the business, the population and
the decorations. One of the mounted staff
laid the thing on Judge Powers shoulders.

The RoYal Party.

j. Henry Behan, of New Orleans, is Rex
II. Behan is q cotton merchant and is a
well-to-do man. He is apparently about
forty years of age about six feet in height
and remarkably fine looking. He talked
with HERALD man coming in on the train
and expressed great satisfaction at what
he had seen of Utah. He was surprised at
Salt Lake city and said he had no idea that
it was such thriving city.
Major S. p Walmsley, Rex I, is a man
about sixty and is fine looking type of
the southern gentleman. He too was
favorably impressed with what ne had
seen.
The Queen of the carnival is Miss
Minerva Anderson. of Ogden. She is a
tall handsome blonde and in every way
fitted to hold the position. But royalty is
too tiresome she said and she expressed
herself as glad that tits all over.

SQUEEZED IN THE CROWD.
Man Robbed while Returning from ths
Fireworks Exhibition.

Mathew Wild, section foreman Of the
Union Pacific at Milford, came up to wit
ness the celebration, bringing his family
with him. On his person he had a check
for So2 so, which he had previously drawn
from the company, and which represented
his hard earnings for the month of May,
Before leaving his home at Milford he
endorsed the check, writing his name on
the back. Mr.. Wild and his family attended
the fireworks display at Capitol hill Friday
night, and when the affair was over started
toward town, on his return to the hotel at

was the various transitions from tours to
company, but the other movements were
ediocre.
