All Agreeable Surprise and Presenta-
I ton Party at Brigham City.
How 1t Was Managed and List of the
Guests-Grand Ball at Leh1-Func-
lions at Heber and Logan.

One of the most complete and enjoyable
surprises ever given in Brigham City,
took place at the court house Saturday
hight. 1t was given by the iremen, in
honor of their ex-Chief Heber c. Boden,
who leaves for mission to Europe in a
short time, and was a grand success.
Nearly seventy five were present in
Guiding the fire department, and their
ladies, the mayor, members of the city
council, and county court, and repre-
sentatives of the press, and ladies' 1t
was intended to have had the surprise
Friday night, but Mr.. Boden was in
Logan at the time and a message
urging him to return on important
business, reached him just after the last
N1raIa had LETT, and as he was coming down
fhe next morning it was necessary to
mi X up some scheme TO keep him away
until evening. Sheriff Loveland was put
to work and soon figured out scheme to
get AIM to go to Ogden, as he said he was
TO appear before the grand jury to testify
on an important case.
Arriving at Ogden, the sheriff slipped
In ahead of Mr.. Boden and had the ''case'
postponed.
Not the remotest idea of what was going
on dawned upon Mr.. Boden until, under
some pretext, he and his wife, accom-
panied by Marshal Hudson and wife and
Mr.. and Mrs. Glenn Horsley, were ushered
into the east room of the court house,
ana his surprise may be imagined as he
Nbeheld seventy-fve OF his friends seated
Mt two long tables, the full length of the
hall, to bid him welcome. A beautiful
umbrella was presented him, and en-
graved on the handle, which was of silver,
we're the words ''H. G. Boden, from B.
Z. T. DIS
After recovering from his surprise, Mr..
Boden in a few well chosen words,
thanked the fremen and those assembled
Tor the honor thus shown, after which
4 gupper was proceeded with, and various
sorts of amusements were INDUCED in
until midnight, when the crowd adj
lourred, unanimously declaring the sur
prise grand and complete success.
An elegant supper was spread and con-
siderable work must have been spent in
preparing it.

A ball given Friday night for the bene-
ht of the Young Mems Mutual Improve
ment association of the First ward, in the
First ward hall, was a complete success.
The floor is not quite so good as it might
be, for dancing, but barring this fact,
large crowd was in attendance and
pleasant time had by all. Nearly $50
were cleared above all expenses, which
will be Of great assistance to the assocla-
ton.
