CIVIL AND MILITARY.

The military have always been well
coined and we'll treated by the people
OF Salt Lake City. When troops com
Ing here have paid any regard to the
rights Of citizens and the peace and or
der OF the community, cordial rela-
tons between the civil and military
authorities have been uniformly srs-
tained. They have their respective
spheres, each OF which should be re-
speeted and both of which can move
forward In perfect harmony II is de-
sirable that these conditions should,be
maintained. They certainly will be, If
efforts to continue them shall be mu-

pAxAMERrcAS CONGRESS,

About week ago the pan-Amerlcan
congress convened in the City Of Mex
leo, with delegates from the United
States and all Of the South American
states, though some of she latter are
in a state Of belligerency. The object
Of this gathering is the establishment
OF better understanding between the
countries Of the western continents
and especially the furtherance OF closer
commercial relations between North
and South America.
The first pan-American gathering Oh
this kind was held at Washington IN
the fall Of 1889, The delegates then
spent over a month in touring the
country and studying our Industrial
establishments, before commencing
their deliberations. Then several pro-
jects wer suggested, including an in
ternationu bank and steamship line,
but the Protects have not been carried
out. stilL II would be premature to
conclude that no good was accom-
plished By that congress. The South
| Americans naturally are suspicious Of
the "Ameicanos." II takes time TO
overcome national prejudices.

An Agreeable Surprise.

Last Monday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
James Kelly were surprised by their
many friends in honor of their forty
second wedding anniversary.
Mrs. Verbeck, Mrs. Kelly's niece,
opened her spacious parlors, where
Mr.. and Mrs. Kelly had been lured,
and when about seventy guests Slip
ped in on them, their surprise was
complete.
1t was most happy occasion-all
present having a lovely enjoyable
evening.
Dainty refreshments were served
about 1880 o'clock, and about 11:3O
the guests departed after bidding
their friends good night, and we know
that each guest carried in his or her
heart the vision of Grandma Kelly's
beautiful face framed in its halo of
silvered hair wishing that Mr.. and
Mrs. Kelly, who are beloved by all,
may live to see many more happy
years of married life.
After Mr. and Mrs Kelly arrived
home two handsome chairs awaited
them as a second surprise. These
were presented them by a host of
warm friends as tokens of their love
and esteem for this most estimable
old couple, whose declining years
throw a most beautiful influence over
AL that know them.
