moment when the climax of enthusiasm
was reached within the hall which rang
with shouts of "Vivc Loubet."
On reaching the summit OF the stair

al the scenes about him and then en-
tered the Salon OF Honor, where the

NJ. Millerand's peroration was espe-

OF applause.
President Loubet then replied, and
the speaking part of the function here
ended.
A GRAND SPECTACLE.
The spectacle that met President
Loubet's eyes. when. amid the resound-
ing strains of the Marseillaise, he
stepped to the front of the Presidential
dals on his entry into the Sale des
Fetes was probably never seen before
within the walls Of any building. The
vast circus was filled with 81 sea of
human beings, who overlooked the bal
comics jutting out from the sides. The
decoration of the interior was a
triumph of artistic skill. with hand
some stained glass dome, through
which the rays of sunlight filtered down
uupon the concourse below, and a color
scheme in mutual painting with the
strinkingly executed frescoes of appro-
pirate allegorics in brilliant relief. The
galleries and balconies were draped
with red plush and the hall was pro-
fusely adorned with trophies of tri-
color flags, opening fan-llke from
Shields bearing the letters ''R. f."
AN ATTRACTIVE GROUP.
The group among the great assembly
which was the most attractive was the
body of foreign representatives in pic
trresque attire. Since Victoria's jubilee
or the Cars coronation, no such con-
gress of strange and gorgeous national
costumes has been SEEN
AN IMPOSING SPECTACLE.
On the conclusion of President Lou

friends Of the members Of the club.
The parlors of Mrs. Kings home
were very tastefully decorated in hell
trope and cream, the club colons. In
the dining room, where Mrs. Bullock
presided at the table, the effect was
especially beautiful from the masses of
viOlet5 which formed the table decora-
ton. Two little girls, dressed in white,
served punch in the hall. and a mandO-
lin club dispersed delightful music
throughout the afternoon and even
ing.
An interesting feature of the even
ingS entertainment was a guessing
contest. which was participated in by
all of the guests. The prize was won
by Mrs. Sam Schwab.
Music was furnished during the even
ing by Miss Peterson and Professor
Lund- Miss Peterson, in her usually

r. c. Weber, who VIII be present in
Paris during the exposition, to repre-
sent the clubs of Utah.

Saltair on July 8.
A letter was read by Mrs. Lund from
the chairman of credentials of the gen
eral federation asking for the number
of clubs in Utah belonging to the gen.
eral federation, with the membership
of each and the names Of their presi-
dents.
The most of the discussion at the
meeting was directed toward plans to
improve the financial condition Of the
State Federation. Whether to depend
entirely on the dues or to
find some other way to bet
ter its financial condition was
seriously considered. It was finally de-
cided TO defer action till after the BIZ
ennial in June. as the reorganization
of the general federation viii be con-
sidered at that time and whatever ac-
ton is taken might interfere with plans
made now for the benefit of the state
Federation.
Before adjOurning it was decided 10
accept the withdrawal of the w. c I.
T. from the federation and also to hold
the annual meeting in this city the last
