FISHERMEN PROTEST.
The X. L. Resolves Against Mr.. Rah'

L
sons Fishery Bill.
Deep Sea assembly, K. L., com
largely of fishermen at-~Gloueoster,
passed long preamble and resolution
demning the fishery bill which Hon.
Babson is endeavoring to have passe
congress. The fishermen complain tn,
der the provisions of the proposed mes.s~.p
an American schooner, amply supplied with
tackle, ETC., could go to the provinces and
ship a crew who would tax the bread out Of
American fsherm EMS mouths, evlding the
law against imported contract labor The
preamble says that the bill, if made law,
would force small dealers out of business,
Gloucester fishermen on tae streets. and
lessen the landing, or fsherman's price of
fish, depriving him of his honest share of the
profits of voyage, without cheapening the
price to the consumer. The reso! buttons say
that the action taken by the supporters of
the Till is seriously inconsistent with their
advocacy Of protection and they appeal to
all fishermen TO oppose and protest against

African Tribes at War.

News has been received of an outbreak be-
tween the Ausha and Nasal tribes The
former tribe had enticed the Nasal warriors
into making cow-lifting expedition, and
during the + absence the Aushas raide d
the Nasal settlement, massacred the
old men and women and children,
and seized the younger women for con-
cubines. They also carried off 14,00o head
of cattle. The Nasal warriors, returning
from the expedition and finding their homes
devastated lamented for three days, and
then commenced war against the Aushas,
which will probably last for three years and
result in the devastation of the country west
of the Kilimanjara mountain.

were horribly and cruelty executed in the

the bodies left where they had fallen, ex-
posed and unguarded, until the evening of
the day of execution. The sultan has also
ordered that "a prisoners, including

representatives wore the regalia of the
order, and it was plain to see that body
of men thoroughly representing the bone
and sinew of the United States was pass
ing by. The fact that the delegates from
North Carolina and South Carolina occu-
pied the same carriage led to the usual
comments regarding the interchange of
ideas between the Governors of the two
States. The past Grand Sires and the
officers of the Grand Lodge of California
were next in line and were followed
by the Mayor, the City Council,
the Board Of Supervisors and
the Executive Committee, all of
whom rode in carriages. The ladies of
the order OF Rebekah excited great in
terest and were followed by two four-in-
hands who preceded the coaches con-
tanning the Veteran Odd Fellows, and
then the procession was over.
1t was an elaborate affair from firstEto
| last and will always convey pleasing
"reminiscences to those who witnessed it.
1t is estimated that there were fully 4O,-
600 on the streets, and the length of the
procession can be surmised from the fact
that it took forty-five minutes to pass any
one point. The route selected was one
well designed to show the visitors
the vast business orbit of the city and at
the same time it afforded an excellent
opportunity for all to witness the parade.
Itran as follows: From Fourth on Main
to the Plaza, thence counter.march to
the left to Spring street, thence on
Spring street to between Sixth and
Seventh and thence westward to the
encampment grounds, where it was dis
banded. A good many of the visitors
from the surrounding towns remained in
town over night, and at 12 O'Clock last
night hotel accommodations were at a
premium. The order instructing the
Chevaliers to be in dress parade at 5 p. NJ
was dispensed with owing to the fatigue
of the day, and as result the streets
were crowded with sightseers until late
hour in the evening.

The Parade.

From an early hour yesterday morn
ing it was evident that there would be
the largest crowd that ever assembled in
Los Angeles, to witness the grand parade
of the Odd Fellows. The trains from
the local towns were filed to overflo wing
in spite OF the fact that many extra
coaches had been supplied, and the
highways leading into town were
thronged with vehicles of every descrip.
ton. Chief Cuddy had made every ar
rangement to insure perfect order being
kept, and the efficiency of his force was
best evidenced by the fact
that not single instance OF
riotous disturbance occurred throughout
the entire proceedings. By II O'Clock
the streets were crowded to such con-
dition that it was necessary at some
points to form single file professions for
those desiring to proceed in any certain
direction. Shortly after noon the strains
Of music coming from the encampment
grounds gave evidence that the prepara-
tions were commencing and by O'Clock
the points at which the different assem-
blies were to be called presented q very
animated appearance. The following is
the manner in which the various detach-
ments we're prepared for the parade:
