RUSH FOR PLACES.
Inauguration of Gov. Bailey
Will Be a Big Event.

Things are moving lively in preparation
for the Inauguration of Governor-elect
Bailey and members of the invitation com
mittee are experiencing something like a
rush in the demand for invitations All
the state officers receive a considerable
number of invitations to be distributed
among the out Of town friends. These arc
accompanied by tickets for two persons
and almost every body wants an invitation
for a souvenir But no one living IN
Shawnee county is supposed to receive ore
OF the invitations The home people are
to sit in the balcony while the outsiders
take the best seats which is a generous
way of arranging things
The stage is to be reserved exclusively
for the incoming state officers, the Outgo-
ing state officers, judges OF the supreme
court, members OF the congressional dele
cation and their wives. The seats on the
will be in charge of the seating there in
order to avoid confusion. Tickets cores
pOnding to these seat numbers will be IS
sued shortly before the governors party
leaves the Copeland.
No particular effort to decorate the Au-
ditorium will be made by the Inauguration
committee. There are already some decora-
tons in place and it is expected that some
of the Kansas MidWlnter exposition drap-
inGS Will be in place by that time. There
will be no opportunity to arrange anything
else for the Inauguration. Company
