CONCERT LAST NIGHT IN HONOR
OF GENERAL PENROsE.
The Commandment Presented With
n Beautiful Silk Flng-An Occa-
sion Long to BE Remembered.

The concert in the post hall at Fort
Douglas last night will long be remem-
bered by those who were present The
hall was beautifully decorated with
the largest flags in the garrison and
with evergreens and bowers. The seat
ing capacity of the building was taxed
to the utmost, the rear of the room,
the balcony and the vestibule being a
mass of blue humanity The we'll
selected programme was excellently
rendered, each piece receiving an en-
core. The opening piece, as at nearly
all military concerts, was the Star
Spangled Banner and was received
by the audience standing. At the con
clusion of the last piece, the band left
the stage and formed single rank
company extending the full length of
the building in front of the stage.
Band Leader Klein commanded For

moved forward a few PAGES and were
halted in front Of General Penrose.
who, with Lieutenant Colonel Coates,
DR.. Penrose and some visitors from
the city, occupied seats in the front
row. Then Prof. Klein stepped for
ward couple of PAGES and made
very neat little presentation speech,
thanking the father of the band for
the ceaseless efforts he had made in
their behalf and as a result for the
many welcome words of praise that
had been spoken of them by the pub
he; regretting that the day was soon
drawing near when the general would
leave them as a regimental command
er, but were happy to know he would
become a resident of Salt Lake. where
they would at any future time while
stationed at Fort Douglas, be only too
happy to show their gratitude for his
uniform efforts in their cause, and
hoped he would accept flag from
them as a token of their affection.

AN ABANDONED WAIF.
The Wait Left on n Doorstep Last
Evening.

Evening.
Mrs. Frank E. HoagIand and Mrs.
Clark. residing at 175 South First
West street, were about to retire at
1880 last evening when their attention
was attracted by noise from the hall
way. Upon investigation they found
on the inside near the door a, wee little
baby exercising its lung power. No
wonder it did so, for the basket which
had formed a receptacle for the little
tot was upturned, and it was smother
ing from contact with q rude pillow
upon which it's little body had been
placed by its cruel deserters.
The ladies picked up the little form.
and bringing it close to the light, a
piece of paper pinned to the infants
dress was revealed. The card, how
ever, threw no particular light on the
subject
This, together with nursing bottle
filed with milk, constituted all the
babes belongings and everything to
Indicate from whence it came; but the
ladies were satisfied they knew and
fastened to the police station, where
Mrs. Hoagland told about the following
story:
Mr.. and Mrs DIR. Brandt have been
stopping at my house for several
months past. Some time ago DR..
Brandt went to Mercur and engaged in
business there, while his wife re-
NAMED in this city She occupied
rooms at my house. About four weeks
ago Mrs Brandt took in a lady, who
gave her name as Mrs. Brown and
that she was from Springville. Shortly
afterWard this lady was confined and
7 he ctoa
was some poor unfortunate who had
gone wrong. as she did not appear to
be more than 10 years of age. About
two weeks ago Mrs. Brandt accom-
panied the lady to her strange home
at Springville but retained the baby
and we presumed Mrs. Brandt had
adopted it. A week ago last Sunday.
however, two ladies plainly dressed
and heavily yelled came up to the
house and got the baby from Mrs.
Brandt. I presume they intended to
adopt it, but now have got tired of it
and resorted to this mode of getting
rid of the poor thing. That is all [
know about it. l do not know the
child, but I am satisfied it is the same
baby and that its right mother is at
Springville.'
In reply to further questions Mrs
Hoag gland said she thought the strange
lady, Mrs. Brown. was taken from the
White house to the physicians house
The ladies were also of the opinion
that the parties who last received the
child were country people, judging
from their dress.
After everybody at the headquarters
had looked at the little tot which is a
healthy-looking boy. it was given over
to the acting natron, Mrs. Tyler, until
some kind people will adopt it or the
mother turns up.

seIectmen's Junket Said to Have
ResnIted in a Draw


County Commissioners Roberts and
Geddes did not return from their ele
vator inspection tour yesterday as ex-
pected In view of their ostensibIe
anxiety to secure an elevator for the
joint building it seemed a little strange
that they should tarry so long in the
east. but many things are now coming
to light which easily explain the de-
lay.
While it was their intention to pass
on the merits of the motive powers for
elevators, they have evidently become
bewfldered and are as undecided as
ever. They went to Chicago, met
agents by the score. were buttonholed
wined and dined Then they were
taken to New York and went up in the
lifts of some of the sky-scrapers there.
but that did not enlighten them on the
respective merits of the electric and
hydraulic machines. Now it is said
that Mr. Geddes will favor an electric
elevator. while Roberts wants by
draulic one. Mr.. Christopherson is also
inclined to favor the latter, and the
county may, after all. be contented to
ascend to the upper floors of the joint
building on a common, ordinary, every
day elevator.

1t is understood that movement
is on foot among the lSrincipal mine
owners and business men of Bingham,
to get up a map of the district show
ing the producing mines of the camp.
The enterprise is being engineered by
Editor Graham, of the Bingham Bulle
tin, in which paper the map and write
up will be published, and it is proposed
70 send the paper containing this in
teresting data to every city Of import
ance in the United States. At least
10000 copies OF the issue will be pub
lished, and q, great many copies of the
same will be distributed among the
boards OF trade, mining exchanges and
similar institutions throughout the
country.
This is legitimate advertising and
will undoubtedly do the "Old Relia-
BILE a great deal of good. as it is one
of the greatest mining centers on the
American continent
Every man interested in Utah and the
future welfare and growth of the state
should assist in this laudable enter
prise, and we are satisfied that every
Binghamite and many Salt Lakers will
do what they can to bring the great
mineral resources of West Mountain
district into greater prominence.

away the general received the
flag, himself and the audience stand

hand while he now and then stroked
its precious folds with his left he
thanked them one and all for the ap-
prOpriate expression of appreciation OF
his interest in their welfare There
was a little dampness in his voice at
first. but it grew steady after a mo-
ment. He said he did not know of a.
military band in the army today that
was superior to theirs in technique:
that it was now far ahead of his old
brigade band in the war. He said he
would treasure the flag as long as he
lived and on all patriotic occasions
its priceless stars and stripes would
be unfurled.

audience applauded to the echo and
