Fair weather today and tomorrow is
the joyful announcement made by the
weather man today. AID all those
who are in the city to attend the inau-
guration and those who live here and
are going to attend it anyway, are
blessing the weather man and have
forgotten the cool shocks he sent us
in the past two months.
There is every indication that to-
morrow will be gala day from many
standpoints. First Of all there will be
a big crowd here and in it will be
many distinguished people from all
over the territory. The Palace and the
Claire hotels were filled with visitors
this morning and many private resi-
dences had to be sought for rooms.
Las Vegas, Albuquerque, Ration, Las
Cruces, Roswell and many other cities
have sent on their advance guard
and the most distinguished visitor of
all, the Chief Justice William J. Mills
of Las Vegas, has also arrived. To-
morrow it will be Governor Mills.
The judge is looking exceedingly we'll
and was warmly greeted wherever
he went today.
Governor Curry and officials met
Chief Justice Mills at the depot yes
terday evening. With Judge Mills
were Mrs Mills and Miss Mills. Gov
ernor Curry escorted them to the Pal
ace hotel and there formally welcom,
ed them to the city.
Decorators at Work.
The decorators of the Palace hotel
where the reception and inaugural
ball will be held tomorrow night have
been busy and have erected irritable
arbor from which myriads of incandes'
cent lights will be suspended and
glimmer through clusters of leaves
flowers and branches. The we'll known
artist, Carl Lotave, inspected the dec
orations yesterday and offered here
and there a suggestion.
Tickets Selling Fast.
Those in charge Of the finances Of
the reception were busy Saturday and
today disposing of those $40 ball tick
cts. eve have heard that few smart
persons have disposed of their tickets
at reduced prices" said one of the
committee, "but this is foolish for :
person arriving at the hall will have
to correspond in name and number
with the schedule Every ticket that is
sold is accounted for and there cal
be no transferring. We must raise
$1,000 and that is why this rule has
had to be made"
Aides Getting Busy.
The scores or more of aides of Cap
tain Fred Muller, the grand marsha
of the day, were busy arranging TO
horses and costumes. Khaki or tn
army uniform of drab will be the dc
sired uniform, but as many of tn
aides if not all of them are civilians
procuring uniforms is no easy tasl
There is a scarcity too of suitabl
horses, but most of the equestrian
have found horses that will do for tn
march.

The stores, banks and public built
ings will be closed at noon tomorro,
so that the employees and bushes
men may attend the parade and il
auguration ceremonies.
