KNIGHTS "PAINT" DENVER.
THE cONcLAVE'S CLOSING HOURS
GIVEN TO GAYETY AND PARADE.
Tho Grandest Social Event Tonight.
Boston Chosen the City for che Next
Grand Encampment.

Boston Chosen the City for che Next
Grand Encampment.
DENVER, Col, Aug. 12-To-day was
visiting day among the knights still in
the city and not engaged in the work of
the grand encampment When the Off
GERS had all been elected and the location
of the,next conclave finally settled upon
as Boston, the main interest in the ses-
sion subsidized and campaigning gave way
to gayety of the liveliest sort.
Boston Commandery had departed long
before the decision was made, but there
were plenty of Massachusetts, people left
and to-day they are busy at the Glenarm
Hotel entertaining their callers and re-
ceiving congratulations. The callers do
not come singly, but in crowds. 1t has
come to be the regular thing for a com
mandery to form at any reasonable hour
and, preceded by its own band, make a
tour of the headquarters.
These professions were on the 60 all
morning Massachusetts, headquarters
probably had the most visitors, but
Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri and
Michigan all had as much as they could
do to care for the crowds that came.
Tonight the festivities will close with
the grandest social event of the conclave
It will be an immense banquet at the
Windsor to be given to the eminent
grand encampment by the Denver
knights. Preparations have been made
to have it on such scale as will be hard
to equal anywhere.
The business Of to-day was to act on
the recommendations of the eminent
grand commander and fix up other
matters which will always be brought tC
the attention of such bodies. Among
other things is the setting Of the time
for the adjournment session at the top OF
Pixies Peak. This is likely to be to
morrow, as the busin IS will be in proper
shape by that time.

tinueS:
''The Illinois corporation has fully COM
piled with the condition OF the law that
10000 900 should be provided, and the gov
ernmenJ commission reports that the
ground and buildings will be the most eX-
tensive, adequate and ornate ever devoted
to such purposes It seems that from
five to eight millions of dollars more will,
in the opinion of the local board and
national commission, be necessary TO pre-
pare the exposition for complete and sue
cessful Inauguration. / have not myself
detailed information as to the financial
necessities of the enterprise which would
enable me to form an independent Judg-
menU of the additional amount necessary,
and am not therefore, prepared to make
any specific recommendation to congress
upon the subject.
Congress ought not | think, to with
hold just and reasonable further support,
If the local corporation consent to proper
conditions Liberality on the part of the
United States is due to the foreign nations
that have responded in a friendly way to
the invitation Of this government to par
ticipate in the exposition, and will, ! am
sure, meet the approval of our people.
The exposition will be one of the most
illustrious incidents in our civic history :"
With the message were transmitted
various worlds fair documents.
