That there is abundant interest in the
proposition to celebrate in this city this
fall on an extensive scale, was evidenced
last night by the representative body OF
merchants, horticulturalists and citizens
who gathered at the Park opera house to
make the final decision as to the advis-
ability of celebrating Peach Day.
For first meeting, judged by the
meetings which have been held prelimi-
nary to other Pc ch Day celebrations, it
was large and enthusiastic, and, best OF
all, unanimous and harmonious.
DR.. E. F. Eldridge, by virtue of the
Craftsmanship OF the last executive COM
mite, called the meeting to order. He
announced that the first function OF the
mass convention was to elect a tempo
rary chairman Joseph M. Sampliner
being placed in nomination his selection
that of the temporary secretary, Joseph
p. Sweeney.
Immediately upon assuming the duties
OF the Craftsmanship Mr.. Sampliner called
upon l. N. Bunting to present the OBJ
ject OF the meeting and to discuss infor-
mally the proposition to celebrate IN
some form the annual fete day known as
Peach Day Mr.. Bunting reviewed the
history of the various celebrations which
had been held in time past, iu running
sketch and the advantages which had
accrued to the city from the almost un-
purchasable amount Of advertising re-
ceived. He presented the causes which
should impel to a proper and rousing
celebration the present year, paming
particularly the immense fruit crop and
the fact that the Festival Of Mountain
and Plain, which had detracted from
celebrations in the last two years would
not be held the present year.
Various other speakers then addressed
the audience at the call OF the chairman,
prominent OF whom were G. w. Steele,
the we'll known horticulturalist, G. +
Bliss, William Bonn gardner, DR.. r. F.
Eldridge, A h. Sampliner, A. L. Wbar-
ton, j. M. Graham, A. A. Miller, Edwin

Store BurgIarized.

Some one broke into Slocomb's hard
ware store last night and carried away
considerable goods in the way OF cutlery
Officers Of the law are right on the trail
Of the thieves
The place where the burglars entered
the store, was from a rear window in the
main store room. They cut out the put
ty from the glass and reached in and
slid the catch holding the window.
They soon ransacked the cutlery case,
the location of which they seemed to be
familiar.
The strange part Of the whole affair
was that the clerk of Mr.. Slocomb slept
in the rear room and heard the men at
work, but thought that it was Mr.. Slo-
comb, who has ofGen come into the store
room at night, after attending lodge
meeting and the man thought that it
was his employer at the time.
The less in knives and raZors amounts
to about $4,000.
A reward OF twenty-five dollars has
been offered by Mr.. Slocomb, for the ap-
prehension of the burglars.

The character OF the celebration was
the theme which was most thoroughly
discussed. 1t seemed to be the concen-
sus OF opinion that besides the sports
which have generally been INDUCED
in on Peach Day that some sort OF street
fair should be held, which would mass
the people as near the centre OF business
as possible, This proposition Tor street
fair met with considerable favor.
President William Bomgardner of the
Mesa county horticultural society IN ade
the gratifying announcement that it was
more than probable that the state horti-
cultural society would hold the state ex-
hibition in this city. He said that the
society in this county had sufficient
funds to pay all the premiums necessary
and that the society would be glad to
second any movement whatever looking
to the holding OF grand horticultural
exhibit which should take on the nature
OF state fair.
A sentiment prevailed throughout the
whole meeting that an exhibition which
would combine grand fruit exhibit
which was to be made by the county
horticultural society, and the features OF
a county fair would about fill the pro-
gram for the proposed celebration.
After full and free discussion motion
was made by 1. N. Bunting to test the
sentiment of the meeting regarding the
holding OF the celebration.
The motion vas put to the house that
it be the sentiment OF the mass conven-
ton then assembled that it WAS the
sense OF the meeting that grand Peach
Day celebration and Horticultural fair,
with features OF county fair, be held.
Upon this motion the chair announced
that it was carried unanimously, rising
vote being taken.
1t was then moved that the meeting
proceed to the selec lion OF chairman.
But one nomination was made, Mr.. JOS
eph NJ. Sampliner, and his choice was
made by acclamation,

OVER A CATARACT.
Half a Hundred People Drowned
in the British
Guiana.

Kingston, Jamaica, June 16.-Particu-
lars OF the catastrophe which befell the
river steamer Mabel and three other
boats recently when they were swept
over the Tumatumsri falls IN the Dema-
rara river, British Guiana, have just been
received here. 1t appears that the Mabel
left Potaro landing in the gold bearing
district FOR the landing at the head OF
the Tumatumari falls, with three boats
il tow There were 12O passengers al
together. When the boats were within
200 yards OF the Tumatumari landing it
was found that the currant WAS likely to
carry them beyond it. A line thrown to
the shore fell short and Captain De Camp
a passenger on the steamer, volunteered
to swim ashore with it. The passengers
then became alarmed and many Of them
jumped overheard.
Some, it is said, got in the way OF Cap
tain DeCamp, who only escaped being
drowned by catching hold OF tree. All
hope Of saving the boat was now past,
amid the heart-rendering scenes OF the
passengers, they were swiftly swept to
the cataract. As soon as they reached
the rapids two OF the boats were smashed
against the rocss and sank. The rope
holding the third boat to the steamer
broke and the craft shot throgh the
rapids safely, her occupants being none
the worse for their terrible voyage. The
steamer, as soon as she got into the rap
ids, blew up and went under.
The cries OF the passengers at this
time were most awful. The angry waters
carried many of them to their doom,
their bodies being dashed with great
violence against the sharp coral rocks.
Fully one-half OF those on the boats were
lost, among the victims being DR.. u. Z.
Taylor, an En9lishman, who was making
a tour of the West Indies, and j. B. Tays,
an American gold miner, who had been
prospecting on the Potaro and Mime
haha rivers.
