LARGE CROWD SAW
CORNER STONE LAID

The laying of the corner stone of
Montpelier's s25, 900 city hall last
Monday afternoon was witnessed by
an immense crowd of people. The
procession formed at the corner of
Main and Eleventh streets shortly
after one o'clock, and led by the
Montpelier band, marched to the
site Of the new hall. where the pro-
gram as published last week was
carried out.
After selection by the band, in
vocation by Bishop HofF and the
singing Of the Star Spangled Ban
ner" by choir of 30 or more voices,
Mayor Sneddon introduced ]. F..
O'Connor, who has been identified
with the interests Montpelier
since before it was Incorporated as a
village. In the short time allotted
to him, Mr.. O'Connor could but
briefly review the early history Of
the city, but he did this in his usual
pleasing way. He referred to the
proceedings incident to the incorpor-
alton of Montpelier as a village, and
spoke of those who composed the
first board of trustees. They were
Jas. Holmes, Jas. H. Kinnersley, s.
A. Mills, c. A. Hoover and ]. f.
O'Connor.
He also referred to the succeeding
administrations and recalled many
interesting incidents in connection
with some of those who helped 10
govern the city In It's early DAYS.
Acquainted, as he is, with the history
Of the city. it was impossible for
Mr.. O'Connor, In the short time al. /
lowed him, to give proper mention
OF all who have had a part in the
city's administration, but of few
Of the pioneer officials he made brief
mention and in closing paid a warm
tribute to all of the pioneers of
Montpelier and spoke of the spirit
Of good-fellowship which prevailed
among those who had to do with the
upbuilding Of the city.
After a selection by the band,
Mayor Sneddon introduced Bishop
W. W. Clark, who gave a very inter
esting twenty-minute talk. He re-
ferred to that sturdy band Of pio-
neers, who first settled In Paris In
1868 and to the company of thirteen
families who located in Montpelier
The following year. He recalled
some of the prophecies made by !
Brigham Young, who laid out this
.ity and named it after Montpelier.
Vermont, the capital Of his native
state.
Mr.. Clark said he was pleased to /
note the splendid growth Montpelier
has made in late years and be be.
ieved that there was bright future
IN store for the city. He felt GER /
tain that the erection Of the city hall
would stimulate the growth of the
city and In many ways it would be
benefit 70 the public. y
After the singing of America"
by the choir, the corner stone was

Then followed decorated autos
and business floats.
When the parade ended at the
pavilion, the crowd gathered there
expecting to see the public marriage
ceremony. but in this they were dis.
appointed as no couple showed up
to have the nuptial knot adjusted.
The exercises In the pavilion were
listened % with interest by an audi.
ence which taxed the capacity of the
hall.
J. +. 0'Connor ofIiciated a mast.
er Of ceremonies, and he delivered
a most pleasing address Of welcome.
The oration Of. the day by Prof. Roy
Welker of Paris. was a mastery
one, and was appreciated by the
large audience.
At the conclusion Of the exercises
the refreshment committee handed
out 1900 sandwiches TO the hungry
multitude, who quenehetl their
thirst with free lemonade.

noon was the bail game. and nearly
1900 people had the pleasure Of See
ing Staley's Colts defeat PocateIlo

citing contest from start 10 finish,
and the score was tie at the end
OF the eight inning. pocalello made
desperate effort 70 break the tie
In their half of the ninth. but failed.
The agony was soon ended when the
Colts went TO bat for the last time
for the first man up scored In short
order.
While the ball game was IN pro-
gress, several hundred children en-
ioyed the free dance at the pavilion
while several hundred more, both
young and old. sought the free pir-
tnre shows.
At o'clock the sporting events
were pulled of on Main street. but
the lack Of time and type prevents
Us from publishing the names OF
the winners in the various contests.
The days events ended with the
grand ball at the pavilion, and that
spacious hall was taxed to les capac.
