What Will be Done i'm Honor of
washingtOn,s birthday.
1t is a number of years since ST. Paul has
seen proper to publicly celebrate the 22d OF
February in a manner BETTING the patriotic
traditions of the day, but this year the city
is in a celebrating mood. The enthusiasm
which organized the parade with temper
allure 2Oo below zero on the opening OF
the carnival, and which induced men,
women and children to take such active
part in subsequent carnival demonstrations.
has not subsidized sufficiently to allow the
day to pass without paying proper respect
to the man who is reverCd more than any
other American, and who is constantly held
up as a model for the rising generation.
The celebration is the work Of citizens, and
not Of the Carnival association, although
the latter co-operateS in the affair and does
all in its power to make the day a success.
Separate and distinct from the carnival. the
demonstration is intended TO be a grand
patriotic expression of the city in honor of
George Washington's birthday. The cele-
bration will consist Of parade, which is
the most emphatic manner people can eX-
press themselves in public individually and
collectively, and all military organizations,
civic and benevolent societies and carnival
clubs have been invited to participate. in
Guiding the mayor and common council,
chamber Of commerce, board of trade and
jObbers' union. All organizations who ac-
cepted the invitation by reporting TO Capt.
Bean on or before yesterday were assigned
Il place in line as will be seen by referring
to his general order, and others are igyen
an opportunity to participate in the parade
by reporting TO him at the starting point
1t is expected that among these will be
Company X of Saltwater, which won the
banner at the competitive drill last week
Every organization Of every kind in the
city is appealed to TO join in the exercises
that the demonstration may be made a sue
cess. The Emmett light artillery held a
meeting yesterday at the armOry at which
fOrty-siX members were present and unani-
mously agreed to join in the parade. They
will turn out about iifty-five men, dis
mounted, with side arms.
AS to-day is a legal holiday all the public
offices and banks will be closed, the post
Office will be open only the same hours as
on Sundays, and in the afternoon it is eX-
pected that places Of business will gener-
ally be closed that employers and employees
may have an opportunity to join in the
celebration.

ON previous Sundays, and Sabbath quiet
reigned where high carnival has been the
rule on secular days. Notwithstanding the
gates We're closed there was constant
stream OF people at the entrance during the
day, and on the walks surrounding the fen
ces, as if the mere fact that they could
not enter drew them as near as possible to
