Fifi j -six years ago Friday the the home seeker and pathfinder of '47 entered the valley of the "Dead Sea of America" and took possession of it in the sacred name of religion and home, and the same lay commenced to plow and plant and lay out a city which has become a noted centre of a mighty state. How well the pioneer builded; their 'rials and tribulations, were in-s in-s arestiijgly narrated in song and ory, at the Meeting House. Just after the stroke of mid-'ht, mid-'ht, on the morning of the V the cannon began to roar, ing dull sleep from the weary senses, and - kept up the d t n u trti 1 the d ay"GTcKl"t S fewKiis glittering darts to pierce the mists of the valley, calling the sons and daughters of the pioneers pion-eers to stand forth and do homage hom-age to the day. At 10 a. m. the Queen o' the Day, Miss Bessie Gudmundson, was escorted along Main street, seated, regally, in a canopied vehicle, ve-hicle, drawn by eight gray and white horses. Threelittle mai'd- tns acted as ladies of honor, and accompanied the royal coach; an - emigrant wagou followed, with pioneer people in costume; all preceeded by the band discoursing discours-ing music by the way. The historic Meeting House, that has been the scene of so many celebrations, was hand-comely hand-comely decorated. Sage brush and sun flowers, reminded the old settlers, both in appearance and by smell, of the valleys fifty fif-ty years ago. There were the choice flowers of today; bunting, sage green, indiau red and sunflower sun-flower yellow, in rich profusion. The members of the choir were clad to represent the pioneer men and women, and they pre-seated pre-seated a uuique and pleasant appearance. M.' E. Craudall Jr. acted as musical director, in the absence of Prof. Roylance, who was ill; he was also Master vof ceremonies. The program as published last week was presented present-ed in a manner true in detail and fully interesting. The pictures pic-tures presented of the trials of the early traveler to Utah; afoot, beside the mule and ox teams, and the hand carts, called up the recollections of the early fifties fif-ties to the minds of the older people who crossed the plains before the iron road spanned the trail where first went the pack mule and prairie schooner. The afternoon was spent in the City park, where the peo pie tried to Iceep cool by eating ice cream, drinking root beer and other rustic beverages, dis-penced dis-penced by the courteous vendois members of the sunday schools. Old members of the "hand cart company hob-nobbed with the pioneers; the Mormon batallion veteran exchanged yarns with the survivors of '61-5; the ind-ian ind-ian trailers of the early limes told the boys and girls about the times when the Walker's band Vas abroad in the land. Gorks popped, the ice cream sizzled, fans rustled, the boys and gills competed for prizes; the Queen was cheered until the welkin raug and everybody seemed full of sunshine. Nothing occured to disturb the equanimity of the big hearted and good natured crowd. There was a large and delighted delight-ed audience at the City Hall in the evening, where the forenoon program was enaceted by tableaux, tab-leaux, calling out much favorable favor-able commendation. The day was terminated 'with a grand hop at I lit Reynolds, 'where the boys and girls swung, and wal zed with their own and the other fellow's partner until it was the next day. ' NOTES. The ''man from Chester Co." with his crown of four scoie and seven years - was out both fore and afternoon enjoying the day. The Pioneer aad Batallion survivers, residents of our City, were at Provo, by special invi tation, and enjoyed the day. Aunt Laura Bird and Sylvia Sanford, the surving lady pitw neers of Springvile enjoyed the celebration. Eastern States Mission. Baltimove, Md., July 20th. Ed. Independent I am now receiving your paper pa-per every Monday, and I assure ybu it is a great pleasure, for it is like getting a letter from home. We get many papers from various sources, but there are nene to tell the home news like the Independent. . I can say that I am enjoying my labors as au elder, and the work is moving along nicely, as new friends aie being made every day. The weather is hot and sultry, which makes tilings appear dull. A cjcloue and rain passed over thecity a few days -ago w hich awakened things up for a while and cooled the atmosphere. A couple of clouds met at the corner cor-ner of Eager and Broadway, and the twister. took out the end of a large dancing Juli, -lifted roofs, taking trees, telephone poles and everything in the way. The force of the storm seemed to strike from the bottom and the top at the same time with great power. Great preparations are being made for the Elks' Carnival, which will be a grand affair. There has been an order made for 50,000 crabs for the lunch, when they make their excursion to Tallchester resort. All the boys have a brass elk pined to their coats, and are celebrating one week before time. I saw one thing here that I never saw at home; that was a mother with a babe on her arm and a pail in her hxiid go into a saloon for.beer; or hold a small boy up to the counter while he learns to drink the poison stuff. A few days ago I took a ride out to Fort Mellenry and viewed view-ed the grounds where the flag pole stood when the Star Spangled Span-gled Banner whs written. It is a beautiful place, and one can get a good view of the city and bay from this point.. , AlTfnends"t?P"reac1i me at 1121) Forest Place, Bakimore Md. Your Erieud, A. M.

Glen, Oregon, July 20th. greeting from the state of Oregon, and claim the privilege as a daughter of a pioneer, pio-neer, of being one with 3-ou, to show my love, if not by my presence, hv my pen, to the pioneers pio-neers today. I say, God bless the noble pioneers pio-neers of Utah, not only the few who are left of the original band of '47, but all those who came later, for did not they make the lame sacrifices and undergo the same hardships aud privations as the others? Then let us honor them all alike, for I know that choice blessings await all. of those who are striving to make the declining years of the pioneers pio-neers pleasant and bright. Yes, dear fellow sons and daughters, Jet us work, and work hard, for no matter how much we do we can never repay them for what they have done for us. If there are tired hands and feet tonight, us a result uf entertaining them, think of the rough roads they have made smooth; of the trees they have planted; of the ditches they have dug, and all the hardships they have undergone, to make it possible pos-sible for us to live in peace and plenty, and then count your work today a work of love and pleasure. As long as there is a decend-ant decend-ant of the pioneers left, let this day be held sacred, is the earnest earn-est wish of a daughter of a pio neer; Mrs. Eva Mutson Perrv.

Syracuse, N. Y. July 21. The Springville Independent: The work of the Latter Day Saints is progressing very nicely nice-ly in the New York conference. In May four elders were asigned to labor in this city during the summer. From January to May, I was in the city of Albany, Alb-any, and enjoyed myself very much while there, in visiting the saint and friends, of whom I found many. We held open air meetings and delivered tracts, also did all else in our power to 1 iy belore the people the principles princi-ples of our Lord and Savior. We find it very difficult, at times to eiiterinto a conversation with the people. At Albany a Sunday Sun-day School and Ladies Mutual Improvement have been organized, organ-ized, which has a great influence in that part of that city. The people of Syracuse seem to be more prejudiced against the Mormons than are the people peo-ple of Albany, which can be ac counted for by saying; the peo ple of Syracuse are not as well acquainted with our principles. The people here treat us with civility if not with benevolence. We are now, dilligently and sys tematically, distributing our literature lit-erature throughout the city, explaining ex-plaining to the people our reasons rea-sons for doing so. We have many friends in the city who fwe can call on . anv time and converse with, about the principles princi-ples of the gospel. Last Sunday morning Bro. Lewis and I attended atten-ded services at the 1st Baptist church, which we enjoyed very much. We remained to Sunday school and got acquainted with several young men, who treated us very well and invited us to come again, it rains here lately almo.-t everv dav, and the wea-ther wea-ther is quite cool. If any of your readers ha.ve friends that they would like the elders to call upon, write uf-at jwd v,-e mof-e than glad to do them t favor. Sincerely Yours; J. R.Hol Springville Dm?

Children and Matches- Another sad ease of death by burning comes from Salt Lake Tuesday, wherein little Lawrence Law-rence Walbum was burned to desj:h, a sacrifice to the childish habit of playing with matches. Some larger boys living in the neighborhood were amusing themselves by burning paper by I he road. iLawrence became attracted at-tracted by the -dancing flames, and suddenly ran over, and in a spirit of infantile bravado, he sprang upon the burning pile and attempted to stamp it out. In an instant the fire caught in the light sum mer clothes and enveloped en-veloped him. A Gentleman, some distance away saw the catastrophe cat-astrophe and ran to save the child, but the little one ran for home, thus fanning the flames to greater fury. As he dashed into the home closely followed by his pursuer -the little three year old was co nplet ely enveloped envel-oped in flame. He was snatched snatch-ed up and wrapped in a rug and Fifty Yccrs I ho Standard CIghist lienors World's Fs!r Elghsst lasts U.S. Gov't Chssslsts miCC SAKINQ KWBIR CO.
