N HONOR OF GOETHE's BIRTHDAY.

Goethe's l50th birthday celebrated al the Irv
Ing Place Theatre last night by the performance
% his dramatic poem 'IphIgenie auf Tauris," with
Carl Wagner OTcst.
The play had never been produced on the Irving
Place stage and selected for the occasion by
Mr Ccnried because of Herr Waeners European
triumphs in the part for which he cast. The
audience was large and included about four hun
dred students from Columbia and Barnard. The
hoarseness which marred Herr Wegner's acting
previous occasions had disappeared. and he made
mighty favorable impression the audience, which
rewarded him with liberal applause and several
curtain calls
The part of Iphigenie was admirably played by
Martha Schffel. who divided the honors with Wag-
ner. Carl Bender. Eugene HohenWorth and August
Eigen also played the parts assigned to them
in way insure the success OF the performance.
The company will play "Iphigenie auf Tauris' this
evening al Cambridge for the benefit of the stu
dents.
Al the Irving Place Theatre a comedy
titled The Fifth Wheel will be performed this
evening.

MESA COUNTY HISTORY.
An Empire In ItseIf---Read Of The
Marvellous Growth---lts Fu-
ture.--lts Possibilities.

According to the scrIptural narra-
tive, the work Of creation required
only six days. 1t took longer to create
Mesa county, and, in glancing BACK
to the time when the first white man
crossed the mountains and camped IN
der the watchfu eye of a restraining
government, and following the foot
steps of the adventurous spirits VINO
waited for the bugle call of September
4, 1881, up to the 18th OF February,
1888, we see how rapidly history was
made and half a thousand people were
in occupancy of the valley lands. only
a period Of seventeen months, but at
its expiration county was born whose
history places it in the lead as the hrst
and greatest on the western slope OF
the commonwealth. These were the
days Of first events that can only be
briefly touched upon.
A baptism Of blood preceded the
formal opening of the Ute reservation.
At the frontier towns waited an impa-
tient people. The government survey
ors were at work within the borders
Of the land of promise while the In
dams were still in possession. AS early
as May, 1881, these venturesome men

held their lives in their hands as they
drove the stakes marking section cor
ners. Yet on July 4th their patriotism
enabled them to celebrate the day at
the entrance of the canon below Fruita
and 1t marked the first public holiday.
1t was in the following month that the
Russell party sought to pass the bar
riers by stealth, but did not succeed.
Two attempts were made, the second
surveillance until the day came when
out upon the warm September air float
ed the bugle notes that opened the way
down the Uncompahgre and Gunnison
valleys to the intrepid and impatient
pioneers bound for the valley Of Grand
river. At a. IN. September 4th they
met at the cantonment, not far from
where Montrose now stands. -Four
days later they had crossed Grand
river, and about the same time small
party from Utah also entered the val
ley. So the pioneers from the east and
the west met at the junction Of the two
great streams whose waters hence
forth were to flow no longer in sight
only Of savage man and beast, but
were to shed their shining drops to
change a wilderness into garden and
savagery into civilization.
The work Of locating at once began,
and the first record made was by j.
Clayton Nichols. AS but a scan
ty supply of provisions had been
brought, it soon became necessary to
return to the supply point OF Gunnison,

cure safe quarters. as the fusil ade at the
Pioneers camp was deafeninR when it
was attacked aud the defense was made.
The scene was realistic from the very
start When the spectators came upon
the ground they saw typical camp OF
the plains OF the time OF 40 The old
pioneer wagons were drawn up in cir
Gle and the huge camp fire blazed in the
center.
Surrounding this were the hardy pion
eers Of the days OF 40 IN conventional
positions OF ease, talking of the days
events and furtively glancing from side
to side as they apprehensively feared
night attack from some marauding
bands of Indians.
When the attack was made the Pion
GERS showed the stuff of which they were
made and repulsed the Indians, but the
latter were too many for them and be-
fore long everyone Of the Pioneer camp
lay stretched upon the plain, with the
exception of one who was captured and
conveyed to the stake to be burned.
The gentleman who was captured rep
resenting the Pioneers was DR.. Hender-
son. He was finally rescued by band
of United States troops.
The members Of the two orders are to
be congratulated upon the highly artis-
tic and realistic manner in which the
sham battle was carried out The sceDe
was one to remind many who stood
about, of the early days on the plains.
The committee from each lodge is de-
serving of especial praise. Charles h.
Petrie was chairman of tho Redmen
committee and Henry Grubbs for the
Pioneers.
The sham battle added much to the
program OF yesterday and was thorough
ly enjoyed by the people.
THE BIG PARADE.
The events OF yesterday cannot be
passed over without reference to the pa
rade made yesterday afternoon. Men
ton OF same was made yesterday, but
many features were necessarily omitted,
owing to the rush of matter for the day.
In the mercantile floats those OF }.
W. Weyer were especially good. He
had his delivery wagon we'll decorated
and rode himself with his family, and
several friends in handsomely decora-
ted private carriage.
Hardy Bros., the big commissi on
house had a fine float deco rated with
fruit. This was especially attractive, as
there was 30 little fruit displayed, when

and here on the 18th Of the month ap-
peared on the scene the master mind
which was to plan out the magnificent
future and control the earlier dest t'nies
OF a great city. Governor George A.
Crawford, at the head OF a small par
ty, secured the services OF one OF the
returned locatOrs and seven days later
crossed Grand river. On the 10Th, sec
ton IA was formally located as a town.
site by him, and the first log cabin
was soon built to prove occupancy.
From this date, first events followed
each other in rapid succession. The
lands adjoining the river on the north
side We're filed upon as far east and
west as ten miles beyond the Junction
OF the two rivers, which was the cen
tral point from which radiated the
paths of settlement On the 10th of
October the Grand Junction Town

later the legal papers We're tiled in

In all the history of Peach Day cele-
brations in Grand junction there has
never been the crowd entertained in the
city as there was yesterday. No positive
information of the number OF people
who we're in the city can be obtained as
yet, but it is safe to say that there were
at least seven thousand strangers in the
city yesterday. This number would
mako it larger festival day than any
day in the history OF the city, with the
exception Of the Peach day OF 1884.
when the Grand Lodge Of the Knights
of Pythias was entertained in this city,
together with the Uniform Rank OF the
order.
All trains yesterday morning into the
city. including the special run in over
the Rio Grands were loaded to the plat
forms. A merry, we'll behaved happy
thronR took possession Of the city and
held it late into the night. The Main
street was almost impassable on account
OF the crowds and the highway was TAX
on as the only possible way OF making
any headway in pedestrianism.
The fruit in the pavilions and the hor-
ticul.ural display attracted the people
in the early day, before there were any
sports on. A critical examination OF the
varieties Of the finer fruits was made by
the farming element in the crowd and
nothing but the highest words of praise
were spoken OF the beautiful fruit.
There have been larger displays OF
fruit heretofor, but never any more var
iety than was displayed. A specially at
tractive feature of the fruit display was
the exhibition OF the fruit packed from
the new evaporater OF the Grand juno
ton Fruit Growers association. This
evaporated fruit was beautifully packed
and was discussed much by the orchar-
dists.
BY nine o'clock the celebration was in
full swing Bands were playing on ev-
cry hand and the people seemed to be en-
joying themselves.
THE SHAM BATTLE.
The features Of yesterday we're all COW

ton Of the grand sham battle at the

This feature of the celebration was
mcst successful. A great crowd assem-

the evening and waited patiently until

which to make fioe display.

dealer, was out with very creditab le

through the means OF streamers and
hangings.

and to which was attached beautiful

The Bedwell Livery made striking
display and the teams in the procession
we're much remarked about.
Mrs. e. M. Hardy had her phaeton
prettily decorated with the Peach Day
colors. The carriage was an especially
attractive feature of the parade.
The Redmen gave realistic war
dance on huge float presenting wig
wan and other Indian features.
Bungling Bros. circus and the Modern
Woodmen and Odd Fellows, with good
ly number in line of march closed the
parade feature.
BUNGLING BoTHERs CIRCUS.
This aggregation of local talent occu.
pied the boards again last night at the
Park opera house.
Tho performers were all we'll known
local people and, while they did not
create sensation, the fun being little
far fetched, they made very creditable
showing.
Chas. Swaney acted at ring master
and with little more sang froid he
would have made an ideal master Of the
whip.
Leon Chapman, who has a local repu-
tation as pantemimist and comedy fea-
ture man, made a hit in several OF his
songs. He was cast for several other
parts in the program and seemed to be a
utility man, for almost any position.
Ben Moss, genial, good hearted little
Ben was full of fun and frolic and we'll
acted the part Of a clown. Much
amusement was afforded by his antics
on the stage.

parts, notably Japanese part.
Altogether it was creditable perfor-
nance but was too hastily shot together
to make hit.

Hon. Fred T. Dubois, ex-senator from

party in that state, accompanied by
Hon. c. J. Bassett, state immigration
commissions for IdaAo. arrived in the
city this morning from Boise, en- route
for the panhandle counties in the north

pose to do political missionary work for
the silver republican party and incident
ally will repair the fences Of the late SEN
ator. They departed on the west-bound
Northern Pacific today.
Mr.. Dubois tOld an Inter Mountain re-
porter this morning that the silver re-
publicans, populists and democrats would
undoubtedly fuse in the coming CAM
paign. Said he:
1.-The democrats and silver republicans
Joined forces in the last state campaign
of two years ago and won an easy victory
over the old line republicans. The silver
sentiment is just as strong now as it was
then; Bryan is lust as popular; there
have been few defections from any of the
reform parties and the fusion ticket
should win by a very handsome majority.
The best of feeling exists among the
leaders of the three parties and as there
is no disposition on the part of n one
party to secure all the offices, We are
dwelling in harmony together"
Mr.. Dubois was too modest to discuss
his candidacy for the Idaho senatorship.
However, Mr.. Bassett said that Mr.. Du-
bois would undoubtedly receive the NOM
nation for senator at the state conven-
tons of the three parties, which are to
be held in Pocatello July II. He said
ventions of the fusion Mr.. Dubois had
been endorsed for the position and he was
of the opinion h a no other name Woulo
