The train was due to arrive at 4 o'clock p. m., over the Union Pacific, and the welcoming band marched to the dtpot to receive the visitors, who arrived shortly after the hour named. The special brought in about 1M of the Suit Lake fraternity. After brief but hearty greetings at the depot, a marching column was formed, preceded by the Ogden Brans band, and the piigount paraded the principal etrtvts, forming a really imposing spectacle, all the marchers being iu regalia and many of them dressed in the beautiful uniforms and accoutrements of the order. Arrived at tne hall, tho crowd was dismissed and the visitors were asked to en- joy themselves as best they might until 8 o'clock in the evening the time set for the dedicatory services. By the time set for tho ceremonies, the large hall was crowded. The gathering was a very fair representation of the best eloments of Ogdea society. The ladies, who never miss an Odd Fellows' event when they can get the pass-wor- d for it, wore there in large number, and lent the occasion the charm and gruce which their presence always yields.

The two rriginal subordinate lodges Union, Na C, and Cresent No. 13, did not remain idle during all this time. While devoting much time to the canton, to No. 5 and the I) lughtnrs of H:bekah, they kept on steadily growing and prospering, and during the year have nearly doubled their membership, and toduy we can sufely claim more than 3tH) members in good standing mostly active workers, and all interested in the success of Odd Fellowship in Ogden, in Utah and in tho world at large. This a.ate-inethows an increase of 100 per cent, in Odd Fellows' organizations .and 310 per cent in membership. At about the time of the talk of organizing these new lodges another movement was projected and at once put in successful operation which will do much more to further the interests of tho order, and which will ultimately bring about a very result, viz: A home it its own for the order in this city. We refer to the organization of the Hall association. The immediate results of this movement, which I think eclipses all other efforts during the peritxl spoken of, ishis large and elegant hall in which we are assembled this evening, and which we have invited you to visit and dedicate for us." It would not be out of place to refer personally to the members of our order in this city who have bent their talents, energies and labors to the grand results which have been achieved within this short period of twelve months, but to do this would require more timo than is allotted me, as their .number is ultrost with the membership. All have, more and in fact, done something--som- e some less, according to circumstances. It has been a strong pull and a pull nil together, and credit is duo to nil alike. And now, Grand Master, members of the Grand Lodge ftnd our visitors, on belalf of the progressive Odd Fellows of Ogden I welcome you to our city and our hall this evening, and I assuro you that we shall do our best to make tho occasion a pleasant and enjoyable one for you in return for the great good and profit which will result to us from your presence and labors this evening. Grand Master, the hall end all its belongings are yours." The responso of Grand Master Whito-lo- y was a vory able effort, nnd the dedication ceremonies conducted by the Grand Lodge were impressive in the extreme. Of the program in general it may be said that every feature was excellent. At tho close of the '"set program" refreshments were served, after which tho time, was spent in the joyous pleasures of the dance and in conversi-tion- . mucli-Uesire- SPECTACLES, PtLYi ASIVT Y oSetm ia Li by lia mty g'y-- c as jut A uri r:irir A!!frti.u i?aiut Ei Pu-luf- Mv boa that1I .! oept Eraploje Tke I'ilrkt ronrt- - a ft Le of a srrei-- t t:-r- pK-kiti- t by the came TLi i the eeeucd p)gmif lUac of Jam time IIiii- - Las U-ia th bands of the b for thij offemav Oa a prviou uecioa be ia pardoned on proa iM that be u!lxufrui to American waya ia tuatrimuGial witters.

The Grand Jury Was Rnsy Yesterday With Election Cases. The grand jury was busy yesterday with the cases of persons charged with IB list Loo t various olirnses ollegod havo been committed in connection with the city election. Of Iheso there were n dozen or more, and about sixty witnesses were fummnned to tell what they krew about the matters charged. The jury made no report yesterday ns to the persons discharged, whim is the only legitimate way of telling who are indicted. 15y deducting the persons re leased from custody or bonds from those Knowu to havo oeen apprehended, siguees can be made ns to what the jury has done, after it has reported. The Commercial printed the trial cal endar of the court, yesterday, showing about 140 civil cases to bo trial at the coming term. Add about fifty chancery cases and it will be seen that the court will have its hands full to dispose of about ax) cases lielween Monday next and the tirst of May. These cases added to the f00 passed upon from Sept. 1 to Jan. 1, 1801, make a total of about 700 disposod of by tho court in right months, and with the criminal trials, which begin in May, and the other hearings that will occupy tho summer, it looks ns though this court will have to handle nearly 1,000 actions within a your, or three for every working day. To bo judge of this court is no Iu fact it is a most arduous position. But Judge Miner eoems to be fully equal to the trying situation. siDO-cur- LADIES1 t How I land Sewed French Kid Shoe for $5.00.
