P Vanatta Makes the Opening Acfclress- A Repe tition of the Drill by Twenty Young Ladies. By 7 o'clock last evening there was a surging crowd for several blocks from the opera house; doors awaiting the time for the doors to open that they might gain admission to witness the. ex ercises of the evening and hear the pa triotic speeches of the boys who wore the .blue, and of others whose sympa thies were with them through the strug gle which saved our country from slavery and rebellion and gave to lis a free and prosperous republic. Many were disappointed not being able (o gain admission to the hdl, it being crowded to its utmost capacity. The hall was rapidly tilled as soon as the ! doors were opciv.d, and as soon hs the S presiding officer got the vast throng ' down to order he iLtroduccd Colonel S. P. VanaUa of this city, who in an elo- quent address bade the old soldiers wel come to our city and homes, evincing by his feeling remaiks that when speaking of the h roi-m and loyalty of the union soldiers lie was speaking of the subject nearest his heai t. The war gov; rnor, Alyin Saunders, was then presented to the audience, and i maue a very liueresimir taiK to ina vet erans, as did also Major laddock if I y . l omana. T he 'iee elut rendered some excellent music which vas followed by the reci ! tatiou of "The Ve.ti.nu ;u Police Court" by Charles E. Burmeister of Omaha. Colonel Ginger was then called upon for the Nebraska young ladies' drill, which va3 performed in a most satisfac tory manner and the audience showed great appreciation of the same. Hon .T. B. Strode of Lincoln, Colonel Colter of Topekn, Kan., and Colonel Majors gave some war reminiscences and "cross fires" which furnished the fun of the evening. Governor Thayer made the concluding address of the evening. Tonight occurs the distribuion of the presents of the fair, and reserved seats are on side at 10 cents at J. P. Young's store. The fair and reunion are voted a crand succrs-t.

The sicond annual reunion of the First and Sacond Nebraska region nts, will be brought to u cloae with a banquet for the loyal and brave boys who barttl tlieir breasts and faced the Southern storm of shot and shell during the dmk days from '0"1 to 't;4. We are glad in deed that so many have been spared, and are able to be with us today. The hearty gre tings between some of the members of the regiments who had not been each other for years, was pleasant to look upon. The work of the Grand Army fir has been most admirably con ducted by Col. Ginger and his zealous lieutenants and gives promise of being as great u success financially as the re union has been socially. The genial, warm hearted Majois, Governor Saunders Major Pearman, Governor Thayer, Col. Coulter and ninny others from abroad, have added much to the pleasure and gord feeling among the old veterans by their presence and kindly greetings.
