In every direction flags and banners met the eye, and at 9 a. in. the band serenaded the princiof the city. pal parts At 10 a. m. the citizens met at the Tabernacle and crowded it to its limits. The house was magnificently decorated and the committee received congratulations from all sides for their splendid work National colors were displayed everywhere. Outside was a large arch over the gate upon which was thejpotto Utahs Star Shines. On the inside in front of the sta nd was the motto in silUnion and Lioerty, One ver letters, and InseDerable, and at the back of the one side stand Hail Star of Utah on of the galleries was 1817 Ring out the the other pide was 1896 oldl17,,on m 1896 New the and in front ef Ring the stand were five young ladies dressed in white with silver stars on their beads, the ccnfer one represented Utah and the other four represented the adjoining sister states. The programme, as printed in The Blade Jasfc wek was carried out in a splendid manner. The peeches were good, particularly that of Judge Chappell. The Binging was excellent and the male quartette was all right. There were too many speeches which made the meeting tco long, but we scarcely see how it could be shortened. In flie afternoon there was a grand sleigji parade and over a hundred sleighs turnfd out. The head sleigh vras occupied by 27 young ladies each had a banner,, representing the , different counties, of the State. The children also had a dance in the Opera house. In the evening at 7 p. m. the business portion of the town was lit up by bonfires, and the different business houses, and public buildings were richly illuminated with wax candles and different colored paper. The most attractive of the public buildings being the Court house which was lit up by four hundred candles. There wa3 also a grand Inaugural ball in the Opera house which was well attended. Altogether the whole affair was a genuine success.
