The mountains are clothed hi mists through which the homo awav oil somewhere appears borne on tho no es of the republic's song of jubilee. lho streets, too, aro more densely thronged today than upon anv preceding preced-ing day. If it were not uneomfortablv warm anyway there might be an excuse for saying that thev are uneomfortablv packed. But then everybody bears the discomforts with a degree of good nature na-ture which marks all as lovaf subjects to the king of pleasure. The fakir is out in his glory. Demon children blossom from tenis at every corner; the man with the pale blue tapeworm exterminator is busy unliin-benng unliin-benng his jaw and the other attendants upon great crowds have worked their way in. Kvery other house has a lemonade lem-onade in front of it and the invitations in big fat Uomaii characters lo come in and get a cup of coffee like your mother used to make is freipicnt. The hand of the lord high chamberlain is seen in unexpected' places, too. One particular particu-lar warning is. couched in tho following terms: j IN" THK KING'S SKBV1CK. : '.

The sleeping accommodations are as good as could be expected. Every house is a hotel, and it would be safe to take another view of an old war proverb which says every man is a host. Vacant rooms in business blocks have been provided with cots, and nobody no-body need walk the streets for lack of quarters, unless it bo tho two quarters which go to make up a half dollar. An enterprising citizen has laid out an entire en-tire village of tents iu Lester park, and all the glory of camping out, together with the low, passionate snoring of the fat man from l'rovo in the next tent, is to be found here. The trees, tho grasses and the touts make up a very pleasant combination. "lour majesty. I also desire to pre-sent pre-sent this badge or royally, the scepter of the queen, wilii that coiilidence woman inspires in ail undertakings and tho devotion she entertains toward her liege, so that, when your royal consort calls upon you for advice 'he will find you ready ami willing. "And this standard, most noble King, I oiler, that you may plant it on the highest peaks of the Kooky mountains and say" Al this juncture a cowbov. unable to longer restrain himself, cried a mighty " hooray!" For a moment Col. Behah was caught, but it was for a moment only. " Yes. and cry hooray and hooray again, so that as that hooray descends the mountain side and through the great canyons, gathering force and strength as it rushes with the velocity of tho winds across tho deserts, the cotton picker, resting from his labors, the sugar cutter, the rice gatherer in our glorious southland may hear it and know it for the echo from its king's farther domains. This is the only Hag of royalty wo shall ever permit to bo planted on the shores of the great American continent. "And now my task is accomplished. We have journeyed far from the lands where birds forever sing, and flowers bloom for aye, from the land of the sunny south. Accomplishing his purpose pur-pose King Kex I. bids you as his royal cousin to observe that'true royalty will always find respect and esteem if administered ad-ministered solely for pleasure. The king has commanded that certain favors be bestowed on three whom he thinks deserving." And in concluding, the chamberlain made the royal appointments, appoint-ments, presenting the insignia of otlice to the favored: His majetty' conferred upon Governor Thomas a decoration and the title of "The Duke of Utah." Mayor Keisel and Mrs. Keisel were created grand duke and duchess of the sunny south, and were called to the foot of the throne to receive their decorations. jo carnival ball.

The talk of the town in retrospect is the excellent drilling last night of the Louisiana rilles and the Donhalter rilles of Salt Lake. Tho latter body divided houors in a manner quite satisfactory to themselves and Salt Lakers with the men from the Crescent city. Today the cowboy again took his knife and with it opened the day. Ten iu the morning was tho timo set for starting in on the lasso practice nnd exhibition ex-hibition of expert horsemanship, butlhe dissipations attendant upon the crown-i crown-i ing of the lirst queou held the boys over an hour or so into the day, and it was 11:30 before the boys finally got away iu the tournament. The course had been provided with a seating capacity of many and many thousands, but this was nearly all occupied when the tirst of the leather-leggiii crew dashed down the course aud began proceedings. The exhibition was purely one of cowboy daring and skill, and was such a one as few of the visitors and not a great many of tho natives had ever before seen. King jousting was nothing to it. There are among the boys here many riders whose skill and expertness have given them a wide reputation, and well did they acquit themselves. This afternoon's exercises consisted of laying the corner stoue of the Utah Wesfeyan university For tho time there was a feeling i little deeper than that of simple pleasure. Tho exercises were quite, impressive. The royal tournament iu which the twelve knights previously chosen participated par-ticipated closed the daylight exercises. The knights of the round table were not in it with tho knights of Netherlands, Hatfield, Mountains, Plains, Monte Cristo. San Juan, 15ek Hara. Malgnyn. Kirk Walls, Pocalello, W asatch and Aztecs. . . ..... The prize for the winning knight is the privilege of crowning the queen at the tournament ball and heading the march.

The air of secrecy which surrounds the carnival is almost impenetrable, but a page from the court, who, like Echo talked freely, fell in the way of Thk '1'ijies and conducted its representative repre-sentative through the looking glass to the land beyond.
