mettlesome steeds, will be re.
mem bered as memorable and
fitting celebration of the Nations
Birthday. The displays of the
different organizations were con.
ceived in excellent taste and re.
fected great credit on their de-
signors. A detachment of the po-
lice rode at the head of the column
and in their new uniforms, each
with u tri-colored sash, made very
fine appearance. The triumphal
car of the Thirty Fights was u
work of art, being finely decorated
with evergreens, bunting and
trophies of the Company. The
seat of honor was occupied by
Miss Maggie Mcclellan, dressed
to represent the Goddess of Lib
erty, and supported on either side
by the two little sons of Capt.
rhOm, in continental costum mes and
bearing miniature muskets. The
typicsl fireman was represented by
little Willie Dugan, who occupied
a position on the front part of the
vehicle, wearing a slove.pipe hat,
one leg of his pantaloons tucked into
his boot-top, a spanner and re-
volver in his belt, u set OF whiskers
glued to his chin and u cigar in his
mouth. He appeared every inch
u b-hoy. Confidence Company'-

Among the decorations was large
photograph Of the running team Of
the Company--tifteen members.
Miss Roweua Lanfianco pers0n-
i ated the Goddess, and was support.
I'd by Willie Gard and Master
douglas. Tue exempt horse Steer,
ridden in the line by Master Kear-
ney, was a noticeable feature OF the
parade. The new banner Of the
Company, bearing the motto
l"Faithful to our trust" was also
attractive. Park Hose Company:
carriage was grsced by little Mis-.
Chauvin, arrayed in the patriotic
tri-colors and wearing the always
recognizable cap of liberty. The
Los Angeles Guards exhibited good
drill In the line of march and WERE
thoroughly military In every re-
spect.
