Presented Many Flowers.
During the progress Of the pro-
gram q very happy incident occurred,
which Is an annual custom on the
part OF the corn palace committee in
the presentation Of flowers to those
VINO have participated in the enter
ta1nment of the people during the
week: w. M. Herbert made the
speech OF presentation. He spoke Of
the success of the palace Of this =
and the fact that the institution
would be out Of debt, and extended
the thanks Of the committee to the
citizens for the loyal aid and support
they had given the palace from start
to finish. Mr.. Herbert presented Dr.
rector Conway with q bouquet Of Aow-
ers for himself and the band, accom-
panying the gift with kindly words
for the band as musicians and gentle-
ment. To the Lyric S~extette the
speaker referred to the excellent
music they had rendered In ensem-
BILE and by the soloists. When Mr..
Herbert called out the vaudeville ar
lists to receive their flowers the two
combination were received with pro-
longed applause, giving evidence of
the really friendly feeling the people
mad for these artists. who contribut-
ed so much to the enjoyment Of the
vast crowds which were in attendance
at the palace.

and Monday had something Of . dis

weather appeared and remained
Throughout the week. Mitchell
seems to be peculiarly fortunate on
the weather proposition, and the
years have been few In all the twelve
that the palace has been held where
rain has interferred with the event.
Out on the street in the evening
There was much hilarity among the
Ithrongs which %traversed up and down
the five brilliantly lighted blocks.
The throwing of confetti was taboo
ed and for the first time this pastime,
left out. But there we're other
things which the crowd was supplied
with to create the usual tun up and
down the street. The crowd was or
derby in the main, although the po-
lice force was increased for the last
night so that any temptation to make
things too wild could be brought UNI
lder quick subsection.
BY 2 o'clock in the morning the
people had dispersed on the midnight
trains for their homes and the last
of the crowd practically got away Sun
day and today.
Conway and his band and the Ly-
rio Sextette, with the vaudeville ar
fists left Saturday for the east. Mr..
Conway and his band closed their
season in Mitchell, and after q short
vacation period they will reassemble
for some winter work.
