during the Gay, leaving their adj
dresses. They will be called fer in
carriages at 10 a. m. Thursday to join
the opening parade. Those reporting
! yesterday were Sewer county, Grand,

! has charge of that department., wants
fifty men to volunteer to ride on the
floats in case OF fire, breaking or any
/ thing OF the kind Those wishing to
do so will please report at room 327
Atlas block to Jake Moritz.
Sixteen colored gentlemen are also
wanted to report at the same place.
Walker Bros. have offered the COM
mittee the use of two fire extinguish-
ers, and if any other firm has any to
| spare they would be accepted with
thanks.
A new float was added yesterday at
the suggestion of a gentleman repre-
senting the Standard Oil company, and
is already nearly finished. 1t is to be
a Is to l float, which shall as nearly
as possible reflect the unanimous SEN
| timents of the people of Utah on the
money question.
The parade at present will be exactly
/ two miles long and will take about an
hour and a half To pass a given point
| There has been quite a time about get
/ ting tie boys in blue from the fort
/
! traffic the street car companies viii
be unable to bring them down IN the
cars, but the committee says that some
means will be provided so that they
will not have to walk.
| From all indications the city will be
! damned. The Knutsford received tele-
! grams for twenty rooms yesterday and
! the Templeton for twenty-five. The
Walkers large sample room contains,
OF +l,ic nd ba
Cullen is making arrangements for a
big rush.
: One kind gentleman bobbed up yes
ter6ay who was anxious to donate
means and substances to the commit
tee, but his offer had to be refused.
M. John Lyle, the silk manufacturer,
offered to furnish homemade SILK
braid, etc, for the quean's court robe,
but her majestys costume is nearly
/ ready for the wearer.
! The committee wishes through the
press to say that the usual 50-cent
rate will be charged to Garfield, and
this will include the bail and other
privileges. This is announced because
the Ogden and other papers have
: stated that the fare would be 81.
SEATS ONLY % CENTS.
] A false impression has gotten around
that the tribunes at the joint building
will cost from 80 cents to 81. This is
not so. The general rate will be but
% cents, with a few reserved seats at
so cents.
The newsboys union, after q. spright-
+ ly struggle with several other organ
/ izations and individuals, yesterday
! scored a victory by securing the vef-
ders' privilege at the exhibition
grounds. 1t cost the lads $50 to "cinch
+ de cheese" as they declare, and they
expect to reap a rich harvest in pea
nuts, popcorn, lemonade, etc.

mittee to meet him promptly at 8
p. m. the night of the 3rd, at Saltair
