GREAT CROWD AT DANCE.

One of the most successful public
balls ever given in the city was tn at
given last night at the Auditorium
under the auspices of Mesa Lodge
No. 592. International Association OF
Machinists- The great hall was beau
tifully decorated with Christmas
greens, bells and other decorative ef-
fects.
The dancing began about O'Clock
and continued long after midnight.
Over 200 couples were in attendance
and never was a dance more thor
oughly enjoyed. The program of
dances was well varied. the music
was splendid and the floor was in
excellent condition. The arrange
ments could hardly have been bet
ter.
The committees having the ar
rangements in charge are to be con-
graduated.
The following were the commit
tees that are largely responsible for
the complete success of the big
dance:

This was the fifth annual ball CIV
en- by this lodge, and every ole of
these dances have proven immensely
The Machinists certainly under
stand well the art of entertaining.
and it is not to be wondered at thar
their annual balls grow in popular
ity from year to year.
The program used by the dancers
were among the most unique. origi-

dance. They were greatly admired.

1t was the night for the more than
locally celebrated &c. A. R Wedding
The arrangements perfected by Com
mander II. S. Groves and other offic-
ials of the association. were admirable
and worked out very successfully and
pleasantly.
Melville Jones, aged 81 years, OF
Fruita, one of the best known citizens
of the lower valley and secretary OF

rived in the city Monday from her

the elimination OF pretty romance,
the couple have known each other
for many, many years but not having
met until this week for long, long
period.
The marriage was solemrized in the
small hall of the Odd Fellows build
ing. The Knights OF Pythias rendered
the G. A r. Post the use of the large
hall but the invitation was not accept
ed in view of the fact that 1t was
found that the small hall could ac-

The hall was decorated with flags
and presented very pretty appear

Shortly before o'clock the Drum
corps of the local post and delega-
tion of about one hundred veterans
escorted the prospective bride and
groom to the hall where there had
already gathered over one hundred
guests.
Many veterans from Fruita, Delta
and other neighboring points were
among those in attendance.
About S:20 o'clock the handsome
couple entered the hall accompanied
by Rev. Ramsey, pastor of the Metho-
dist church OF Fruita. and few close
friends. As the couple advanced to
the platform at the end of the hall
wedding march was rendered. The
couple took their station on the plat
form and behind each n stalwart vet
eran took his stand holding aloft
very large American flag. The scene
was exceedingly good to look upon.
Around the room were lined scores
of uniformed old veterans. well wish

Very impressively Rev. Ramsey pro-
nounced the words that Joined Melville

bonds of matrimony.
When the ceremony was finished the
friends pressed forward and showered

there been over fifty cases. and at

JENNY, NOT
TOMMY BURNS

A correspondent thinks that the in
depreciation of the cabled message
that Cans has been matched to fight
Tommy Burns is incorrect, inasmuch
as Burns is a heavyweight and Cans a
lightweight. 1t is suggested that the
Burns referred to is most probably Jem-
my Burns of Los Angeles, lightweight
fighter. This is probably correct, as
Cans, no matter how willing Il fighter
he has proved himself to be, would be
unlikely to take on such an unequal
contest as matching himself against the
man who floored Squires three times
within three minutes and delivered a
knockout to the Australian champion.

NATIONAL A.A.U.
CHAMPIONSHIPS

The national and all around cham
pionship of the Amateur Athletic Union
of the United States. took place on July
at Celtic Park, Brooklyn, and its most
notable feature was new record by
the winner, Martin j. Sheridan, of the
Irish American Athletic Club. His
total for the ten events was 7130 Il
points, and this fine bit of athletic work
eclipsed the old total of $500 IL points
by Sheridan himself in 1905. Richard
Cotter, Denis Murray of Ireland, j. j.
Dalton of st. Louis and j. j. McLaugh-
lin of this city were the other contest
ants. From the start Sheridan simply
waded through the program. Sheri-
dan beat Cotter by nearly six yards in
the 100 yards. The shot was won by
Sheridan with put of 43 feet, and this
was his nearest approach to the maxi
mum of 1000 points, the score being
sos points. In the running high jump
the pair tied at a height of feet
inches, and both tailed for 736 points.
Sheridan sent the hammer 108 feet s
IL inches. Sheridan s pole vaulting
was another of his strong points, he
getting over the willow at 10 feet rs
inches and he made a good attempt
at II feet. The following are the
summaries: 100 yard run-Won by M.
]. Sheridan; time, 10 As seconds; 700

MONEY COMINGI
IN FREELY
Over a Thousand Dollars AL
ready Received for Yacht
Building Fund.

The last of the circulars soliciting
subscriptions for the Hawaiian yacht
to meet the pick of the Pacific in the
coming transpacifc race have just been
mailed today, but already the money
is commencing to come IN in response
TO our request said E. A. McInerny
yesterday, who looked as pleased as
he said he felt over the prospects for
the Hawaiian yacht. II do not know
the exact amount we have so far re-
ceived, but it is already over one thou
sand dollars. This is a good start
towards the twelve thousand we need
to build our boat.
cit is especially gratifying to note
the liberal responses met with from
the residents of the other islands Some
of the first subscriptions we received
came in the inter-island mail and the
letters we are getting from our friends
outside are mighty encouraging. So
far none of the subscriptions have been
for sums of over one hundred dollars,
although that amount has been reached
by some. One yachting enthusiast,
tourist here, sent us a hundred.
IF everybody would send in a
small sum the aggregate would come up
to our maximum need and the Hawai-
ian entry in the great,race would be in
every way then a true representative
of the islands. The plans for the yacht
are almost completed and should be
ready next week. Then the contract
will be given at once to Sorenson &
Lyle and the work on Hawaii's yacht
will be begun at once
The interest in the second transpa-
cific race is growing among the yachts
men of America. In recently received
letter from Commodore Sinclair, of the
South Coast Yacht Club, it was stated
that six yachts from Southern Califor-
MIA would probably sail in the 1908
event, while five other entries, including
HdoI AAoAh 1AdNdAIy NtiC pIuDdb1E. l. HS
outlook for the race was bright and
the Los Angeles people would see to
the booming of it as the time for the
starter s gun drew near.
In local yachting circles things have
taken on a rosy hue also and the inter
est in the sport is on the increase. Yes
terday the Beekley cup race, for Aug
ust 4, was discussed and the plan of |
the regatta committee of the Hawaii |
Yacht Club to charter the steamer John |
A. Cummins for the race was put into
practical form. The steamer is to act |
as a tender for the racers and will also
carry as passengers all who desire to
follow the yachts over the course.
The Fred Macfarlane trophy was yes
terday delivered to the regatta commit
tee, although no date has as yet been
set for the race nor the course named |
by the donor of the cup. The trophy
itself is q particularly handsome one,
in beauty of design even
the Governor s cup. This is to be raced |
for by second class yachts.
