signing a. check for $1,000 this morning.
That amount was voted; last Wedr oday
night upon the Conference: Committees 10
port which was received with great favor
by us" -.
. These words are very reassuring. and in
every way has the breach:;between the two
bodies sealed up, and there is no reason for
the Pioneers and Native Sons not living
and. working peaceably together in the
State. 1t is understood that the Pioneers
are not jointly responsible with the Native
Sons for the payment of the expenses of the
celebration and the $1,000 is only a sub
scription. lin all other ways the Pioneers
are ready.to. cooperate IN. compliance with
a: resolution passed a week ago.
Treasurer Do cookery said last evening that
the Finance Committee lis having better
success than anticipates and that COM
=. meneing with next Monday the lists of
subscription would be published with
their amounts. 1t is estimated that the
subcommittee will require about $4,000.
and fully $4,000 win be needed 10 defray
every item Of expense.
A TIMELY SUGGESTION.
"A timely suggestion was made by Moses
WaSseTman. a Veteran Fireman, who pro-
posed that the Veteran Firemen and
Exempts give torchlight procession on
September 9Th, on the evening that the
several humbeau clubs will have the elbow
out" at Union square.
" " The suggestion: was that the firemen unite
with the fiambeau clubs in a manner to re-
call the grand torchlight procession of
1856 when the news of the completion of
tie, "a tlantic cable reached this city, and
1900, tiremeu paraded with torches.
The Veteran, Firemen comprise men,
bership Of 435, all of whom will turn out.
The. Exempts win also respond in good
numbers:
IN THE INTERIOR.
e. ID. McCabe, writing from Modesto to
the Native Sons, says: 1--WE of Modesto
are no less enthusiastic than our brethren
in ather parts of the. State. Already CON-
mitteeS have been appointed by the parlors
with the view of preparing for as fine &
turnout as 1t iS.posslble for US to get up.
The parlorS are yieing with each other to
see which shall haye:the largest attendance
and the most unique. uniforms. All the
bands in the cOuntry:will be engaged. and
il seems as if it is the intention of almost
every one to be present and participate.
Grand President Miller mas received an
application for a charter from YTeka, Sis
kiyou County. They are DESTROYS of or
ganiZing before Admission day, in which
case delegates will be sent TO the celebra-
ton.
Tuolumne Parlor. with its "a members, is
striving to have every MEMBER esent and
in line in San Francisco,
FIBEMEN IN THE PAI g.
1t has been decided TO have Il delegation
from the Parade Committee walt upon the
Board of Fire Commissioners at its meet
ing tomorrow and ask TO have the entire
Fire Department, or as much of it as posi-
bic. take part in the parade. Assurance
that the invitation will be accepted has al
ready been received. While this will be a
noticeable addition TO the parade it is not
an uncommon thing to have the engines on
parade at public gatherings, Tor which rea-
son the feature may not be as novel as a
good many others will be, though ever at
tractiye.
WHAT TIE MISSION Is DOING.
Mission Parlor, No. IS, has appointed a
Ninth of September Committee composed
of +. o. Waite, Chairman; f. {. Drew,
Secretary, and fifteen others. This com
mittee has been assured that $500 will be
placed at its disposal for the entertainment
of guests in the parlor's booth at the Pa
yiliOn.
The early Mission will be typified in a
float, which will be placed in the process
sion, and another representing the Mission
as it is to-day. Besides, several matters OF
history peculiarly interesting to the parlor
will be embraced in other floats.
Already the committee has secured a
novel feature for its programme to be
enacted in the Pavilion. The services Of
the Belgian Quartet have been secured for
that purpose, and the committee has under
consideration other novel features.
DECORATING AN ADOBE.
An adobe in the Mission will be gayly
decorated by the Mission and Hesperian
Parl0Is. and arrangements have been made
for the erection of a sixty-foot flag staff on
Sixteenth and Dolores streets. This flag
staff, from which a large bear flag will
float, will be duplicated by another not
quite so large on the opposite corner.
These features VIII only stand out from the
other decorations by their being more
pronounced, for it is the intention Of
nine OF every ten houses to decorate, and
the Mission is taking great credit to itself
for the enthusiasm displayed by the 400
Native Sons of that part of the city.
FRESNO HEARD FROM.
A prominent Fresnoite, l.. ,Overman,
called at headquarters Yesterday and stated
that all the parlors in the vicinity of Fresno
have taken up the matter in most graft
flying manner and that the delegation from
the interior of the State will be very large.
at is" said he, 'the intention of the fruit
men to make an exhibit of this county's
produce, and, if undertaken, the effort will
be carried out in every particular"
SHOW UP YOUR MACS.
W. II. Thornley,, Chairman of the Parade
Committee, has addressed letter to the
various livery stablemen asking the number
of horses with military saddles, how many
without and how many saddles each one
can furnish. also the prices, and asking re-
plies to be sent to Daniel Puter, Secretary
of the committee.
FEATURES OF THE PARADE.
Grand Marshal c. l.. Tilden has almost
completed the arrangements for the parade,
so far as its principal features are con-
cerned. The place of honor will be ten
dered to the Pioneers, who will be escorted
by the Native Sons, who in return will be
Second Brigade, n. q. c. Other Organiza-
tons in the parade will be distributed as
found most convenient and best when the
fall number is ascertained.
To ascertain the number aud kind to parti-
cipate in the parade. the Grand Marshal has
hshtu Llldl All pUSNiult lulOTIUdLIOu ABOUT
floats and other features be sent him as
soon as possible. TIE work of organizing
parade to be couple Of miles in length is
a work much more difficult than any one,
not Grand Marshal, would suppose.
About two weeks since the Parade Com
mittee decided upon route for the parade,
commencing near Battery. on First street,
to Market street, to Pine. to Montgomery,
TO Sacramento or California to Kearny,
thence to Market and out Market to Van
Ness avenue. A week later the proposed
route was changed at the request of resi-
dents of North Beach. so that the parade
would pass up Montgomery street to Mont
gomery avenue to Kearny.
AN OLD SEWER IN THE WAY
All went well with the arrangements.
Everybody agreed that the route was we'll
chosen and that the change was good in
every particular. Everybody except one,
for a contractor discovered that he had en-
tered into a contract to take out the old
sewer along Montgomery street. north of
Sacramento, and decided to tear up the
street.
His proposition was first declared a
couple of days ago, and produced consider
able comment and criticism on account of
Its being so inopportune. Ordinarily any
movement on the part of contractor to
make an improvement is hailed with joy,
