The reception rendered 10 General
Funston. Charles Gleed and Professor
Blake Friday evening was one OF the
most enjoyable affairs Of that nature
ever given in our city.
The Montczuma club was the scene
of a brilliant assemblagC in evening
dress from until after midnight, and
n large number of ladies lent their
nabpy presence TO the entertainment
provided for the general and party.
On leaving the Castaneda yesterday
the party first drove on the mesa. A
light rain had laid the dust, making the
air cool and refreshing, ana the trip
through the post sites was really a
very agreeable ride. On the mesa the
general was pointed out several avail
able sites and then the party went up
the Sanjuela to hot springs, making a
drive OF about twenty miles. The gen
eral got on, OF the carriage at numer-
Gus places and closely examined not
only the general view. but the comp
stion OF the soil as we'll. He seemed
much interested in the site question,
and. evidently, will be prepared to ex-
press an expert opinion on the availa-
BILE sites, If requested to do so Sy rle

The party arrived at the Montezuma
hotel about 6 O'clock and all hands, in
Guiding the general took a plunge In
the springs to refresh themselves after
tn -four hours ride. The general, as Is
famously known is good swimmer
and said last night that he enjoyed his
plunge very much. He looked bit
faded last night and is not feeling well
Just before he came TO Denver he had
a serious operation performed, his ply
slclan warning him against too much
CSC rcise. and it is probable that the
NJ trip to Arizona fatigued him very
I-Cch.
After the plunge bath the party ad
iourned to the hotel where a delicious
h. .Yt kkHn q
very elaborate one NJ. w Browne

and \. 4. Jones proposed the toast o.
welcome. which was responded TO In ;
