ENTERTAINED.

THE STOCK YARDS VISITED.
After a Sumptuous Spread Came
Felicitous Remarks.
A Representative Body of Western Stock
men Inspect the Salt Lake Iards-some
Heavy Operators Among the
Party-Notes and Gossip.

Salt Lake had its inning with the stock
men yesterday, and Manager de Ricqles
put up a good game.
Fifty-two cattlemen-just one-third
more than were present at the Ogden con-
vention-went outin a special Rio Grande
Western train to see what Salt Lake had
to offer in the shape of yards.
They were not disappointed one bit,
either, for the Salt Lake pens cannot be
beat, as far as they go. They are well
planned and substantially built, every
thing about them modern and handy for
feeding and loading and unloading stock.
This was agreed upon all hands, and the
big Kansas City men, as well as the
Omaha crowd, complimented Manager de
Ricqles on the plant.
There were enough cattle in the pens to
give the yards an air OF business, and it
was real stockyard scene as the men
walked the top board on the partition
fences inspecting the punches of steers,
passing their opinion as to their condition
and how much corn it would take to bring
them out.
