j. P. Grlbben, E. A. Young and D. II.
Moon and NJ. j. O'Connor were appointed
a committee on trades and crafts, to whom
those desiring to make displays should
report without delay.
Messrs. Clark and Rice and Gen. Bishop
were appointed committee on railroads.
A discussion took place at tbs meeting
upon the question of locating the grand
stand from which the visitors could view
the procession, and after lengthy debate
it was resolved to abandon the idea of
erecting platform on Bridge square and
it was decided to reserve the whole of Rice
park for the purpose, which will be pro-
Vided with seats and suitably decorated.
LINE OF MARCH.
The grand procession will start from
Seven Corners, emerging from q splendid
canopy which will cover in the whole space
where the seven streets converge, and from
thence will pass down Third street to the
Metropolitan, around Rice park and again
into Third street.
Down Third to Broadway,
Past the North Pacific buildings to Fourth,
Fourth to Sibley,
Sibley to Seventh,
Seventh to Olive,
Olive to Ninth,
Ninth to Jackson,
Jackson to Seventh,
Seventh to Wabashaw,
Wabashaw to the capitol.
In passing down Third street at bridge
square the procession will pass under a
triumphel marque so to speak, of ever
green and floral wreaths extending from
the gigantic electric light pole to the sur
rounding buildings. At Cedar it will pass
beneath the "Arch of Welcome" magni-
icient structure by G. Gilbert, unique in
design and rich in color. The arch will be
twelve feet to the key and crowned
with splendid gilt dome
and on each side gilt minarets. Swell
come" in large letters will be placed in the
center of the arch, and below this, extend
ing from base to base, line containing
the name Willard repeated nine times. ''St.
Paul Greets the Northern Pacific and it's
Friends" will occupy space on a line with
the center arch. The arches over the side
walks Will bear the inscription, 'Shake
Hands, Portland" Deer and other game,
fruits and grain will form parts of the
columns supporting the arches.
At the intersection of Sibley
street the procession will pass
under the Railroad Arch.r
"a most novel structure, but effective and
striking in the extreme, designed by R. W.
EltYner. 1t will be combination of rail
road, tunnel, locomotive parts, cowcatch-
er, driving wheels, etc., and will depend for
color upon its decoration, which will be
the flags of all nations.

grand cortege will form beneath the "Ori-
entail Arch" splendid design by Mr.. Do
herty. The main structures will be of
of oriental form, supporting an evergreen
arch. Supporting this will be brilliant
Chinese pagoda. The decorations will be
Chinese lanterns, Japan fans, etc.
Immediately upon the distinguished
company arriving from Minnetonka they
will be conveyed in carriages from the de-
pot up Third street, and as they pass the
"Arch of Welcome" the guests will receive
a shower of beautiful bouquets from the
hands of thousand young ladies, who,
robed as we are taught the angels are-in
unsullied white-will be arraHged upon
platforms on either side of the arch. From
this they will be taken at once to Rice
park which will be elaborately prepared
for them and from which vantage ground
they will witness the procession, no one
being allowed to cross over to the park
side of the streets to obstruct the view.
The committee on decorations have ar
ranged that every house in the full length
of the line Of march shall be decorated
and it is hoped the citizens will add to
those decorations furnished by the
