Saturday Night--Triumphal Arch

A meeting of the WOmanS Democrat
ic club occurred yesterday afternoon
in the woman's club room of the city
and county building, at which much
enthusiasm was displayed over the
coming of the great apostle of silver
and Democracy. The women decided
that as it is going to be impossible to
meet Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan in social
way, that they will remember Mrs.
Bryan IN somewhat the same manner
that her distinguished husband was re-
membered when he visited Utah before.
AT Mrs. Cohen's suggestion it was de-
cided to have a silver pin of the Sego
lily design made, and to have it so
decorated with gold that the 16 to 1
idea might be carried out.
The matter was left with the COM
mittee, consisting of Mrs. j. Fewsen
Smith, chairman, and Mesdames Co
hen, Roundy, Reiser, Thomas, Shea,
Pratt and Miss Lynch. This commit
tee will report to the club on Friday
afternoon at special meeting to be
held at the county building at 2:30.
Arrangements for the presentation will
then be made.
Miss Helen Schwartz delighted the
ladies with a recitation, Henry of
Navarro, after which the hostesses

Regrets From Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan.
Mrs. Frank b Stephens attended the
meeting as the friend of Mrs. Bryan,
and conveyed to. the ladies the regrets
of Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan that they can
not arrange their plans SO that they
might remain in Salt Lake for a great
er length of time.
Later in. the day an order for the pin
was placed with the j. II. Leyson Jew
elry company. The design determined
upon by the ladies is in the form of
bar of silver on Which the lily will be
placed. The whole will be embellshed
with gold. and in one corner a minia-
ture bee hive win be engraved. There
will also be an inscription which will
be decided upon later.
Preparations For Demonstration.
The Democratic committee has secur-
ed S1.00. round trip rate from Ogden
and a similar rate from Provo for the
William j. Bryan demonstration in this
city Saturday evening next. Free ad
mission will be given to the Salt Pal
ace grounds at any time Saturday night
by the presentation at the gate of their
return coupons.
The committee wishes it to be thor
oughly understood that all the gates of
the Salt Palace grounds are to be
thrown wide open to everybody for one
hour Saturday evening. from Z to s
o'clock. During. that hour no admis-
sion will be collected, and the people
will be themselves to blame if they do
not get in free. The inference is that
charged admission before the hour of
and after. the hour of s. -
All indications point to a rousing dem
onstration and preparations for it are
going forward nicely. The enthusiasm
with which the people have taken hold
of the matter makes the preparations
comparativel simple matter The
main thing was to give Mr.. Bryan's
Utah friends a chance to see and hear
him again; all else was secondary.
A move was on foot yesterday to pre-
serve the triumphal arch until after Mr..
Bryan's visit, and have it brilliantly
illuminated in his honor Saturday even
ing There will be many other visitors
in the city on that occasion. This ar
rangement will no doubt be made.
