If the weather changes in the next few days and that change affects the mercury to the extent that it will prance toward it's hole, then we shall have colder weather.

Clement Chase, Fl. J. Penfold, Elmer e.
Bryson, Walter Jardine and o. D. Kiplinger
of the board Of governors of Ak-Sar-Ben ac-
compapied by their wives and knights A.
Guion, Chris Hartman and Ed Dickinson
and Miss Dickinson, and Gus RENEE, who
built the Omaha floats, were in Denver at
tending the festivities of the Feast of
Mountain and Plain" and returned yester-
day. They report having had most enjoy
able time and having been royalty enter
tanned in the Colorado city. On arrival
there they were taken in charge by j. II.
Jordan, a former resident of Omaha, and a
committee CT the order of the Slaves Of the
Silver Serpent" and not only given an oppor
tunity to see all that was to be seen, but
to get all the pointers obtanable which
might be Of use to them in organizing the
festivities in Omaha next season.
Several things were noticed which viii
como in good play next year. One OF them
was that more Of an effort was made to Sc
cure a big showing in the parades which
come before the great festival and final dis
play. The various Colorado counties were
represented by elaborate and expensive floats
on the night Of the state parade. One iea-
ture of this which was not only beautiful
but very interesting to the eastern visitors
was the section gotten up by the local
Cinnamon. For richness 1t was the equal II
not the superior, of anything seen during tho
week of festivities. The military parade was
also more elaborate than In Omaha the
federal troops from all the garrisons within
several hundred miles of the city being in
line, their services being secured by the
festival committee paying the cost of trans
porting them to and from their regular
posts.
Another feature which will in all probabil-
ity be followed here was the holding of a
grand masked ball during the week. TO
which the public was not only admitted al
a moderate price, but was given an oppor
tunity to dance. In addition to this the
last night OF the festival week. the grand
here, was held.
So far as the great parade, which was the
elimination of the weeks gayeties, was con
cerned IL was the opinion of not only the
Omaha visitors, but of others who saw both,
that II was not equal to the one held here.
There were not so many floats by three and
they were not so elaborate or so artistic
in their design. They were more profuselF
decorated with tiDsel, however. In their con
ception they dealt with more commonplace
subjects, very few of them being anything
which appealed TO the artistic sense OF the
people. The street illuminations were not to
be compared with those OF Omaha, the only
effort IN that line in addition TO the regular
street lights being strings OF ineandcscent
lights at the street intersections.
The cost OF the weeks festivities was
about S27 900. the street railway company
alone paying $1,000 toward II.
