NN~t1CO@SSA
DENVER, Sept. 4.-The great pa
vilion at Arlington park was literally
damned tonight on the occasion of the
Efsteddfod concert, in which the great
number of the successful competitors
took part, including the K P. band
and the Salt Lake Ladies' Vocal club
There must have been at least 10000
people within the walls Of the great
tent, and it was near midnight when
the closing number was given. The
visitors leave for home in the morning,
with hearts full of gratitude to the
hospitable people Of Denver, as a
whole, and while the season has been
one of hard work. there has also been.
considerable pleasure afforded to all
who have attended. This much must
be said: The Eisted1fod has been a
most marvellous success, financially
and otherwise. The Salt Lakers will
leave the Union depot in two special
trains, one going over the Denver &
Rio Grande and the other over the
Colorado Midland. There are many
rumors afioat tonight as to what time
overs have been suggested and may
probably be made. All, however, will
be home, probably by Sunday night.
The Ladies Civic club gave a recep-
ton in the parlors Of the Albany from
to this evening, and a most en-
1oyable time was had. Professor
Stephens and others of the choir
ISSUED THE FOLLOWING
