THE PARADE.
The Fine Appearance of n Large Body
of Trained Men.

The formation and moving of a pro-
cession on a day like Yesterday was no
mean task, but was very successfully ac-
complished by Grand Marshal Jeffrey, as
sisted by Walter r. Stoll as chief of staff,
Lieutenant G.H Roach, senior aid. J.D.
Gill. Maj. Talbot, A. D. Kelley, Capt.
Smith, Frank Bon and Sterling Bir-
mingham. The chief and his mounted
staff presented a very fine appearance.
The detachment of police detailed to
head the column consisted of Officers
Nolan, Ingalls,, Sullivan and Griswold-a
striking quartette.
Next came the marshal and his aides
on their prancing steeds.
With the arrival of the Cheyenne &
Northern train from Fort Russell came
tho major portion of what developed into
a very large procession. This addition
was the entire 18th infantry led by their
famous band of tweuty-three pieces and
Gen. Henry r. Miner and staff in full
uniform. There we're these companies
under command of the officers named:
A company, Capt. Van Horn and Lieut..
Burns; B. Capt. Green; G, Lieut.. Walker;
f, Capt. Clarity and Lieut.. Brush; f.
Lieut.. Rubbing and Lieut.. Dashiel; G.
Lieut.. Druien; |, Lieut.. Muir; II, Lieut..
Howe. Col. Ofley, Mai. Casey, Adiutant
Ogle, Quartermaster Chynoweth and As
sistant Surgeon Ives were Gen. MINERS
staff. Capt. Bennett and Lieut.. Grum-
ley we're in charge of the post during the
absence OF the troops.
The Wyoming militia was the second
division. The gray phaldnx was led by
company A of Laramie, commanded
by Capt. Knadler and Lieut.. Hesse.
They had sixteen men in line. The
Cheyenne Guards, Go. B., were fondly
referred to as 'our boys" 1t was con-
coded that they eclipsed everything in
sight save perhaps the regulars. Capt.
Sitter and Lieut. Adams handled their
thirty seven men splendidly and the boys
made a record for themselves Yesterday.
The territorial militia was headed by a
strong drum corps.
Now the veterans wheeled into line in
compliance with the orders OF Com
mander Fisher. Thirty members of the
G. A. r. braved the storm and seemed
happy marching through the mud in
honor of Comrade Warren. Capt.
Thompson was on hand with his incom-
parable drum corps. The banners car
ried by Reynolds Post were the finest
seen in the procession.
The Emancipation club had been des-
ignated a place as the fourth division, but
President C~ushinberry was unable to mar
shal his forces, and the society was not
represented in the parade.
Chief Warlaumont had exerted himself
to the end that the fire department might
make a good showing Yesterday. With
the co operation of the foremen of the
various companies his efforts we're crowned
with success. The city band had been
assigned to the boys.
The companies were given positions in
the order of their ages, the seniors in ad-
vance. The reliable Pioneer hooks had
the post ofhonor SO well earned. Twenty
members marched with Foreman Joe
Dillman. Eighteen untIring and ready
Durants came next with Foreman Henry
Dllman. Following we're eleven natty,
sprightly and prompt Alerts under Fore
man Frank Roedel. The sturdy Phil
Sheridans, from Camp Carlin. to the
number of seventeen, brought up the rear
of the fourth division. Foreman Mark V.
Draper commanded this fine body of men.
The J.. T. Clarks, the active South Side
hose company, did not march for the sole
reason hat uniforms long since ordered
have not yet arrived.
Mayor Riner and tie city councilmen
and municipal officers in carriages were a
portion of the fourth division, preceding
the fremen in line. They were out in
spanking rigs. as beftted the officials of
the magic city.
