The North Conway Coaching Parade

Now that the Bethlehem parade is over the
coming coaching parade on the east side of
the mountains, which takes place tomorrow,
is the absorbing topic of interest. 1t is to be
the first event of the kind on Conway side.
and few visitors will leave until after the
parade. 1t includes North Conway, Kear-
sarge village adjacent, Intervale and Lorne,
Bartlett and jackson. Probably coaches
from other places will come. but it is ex-
pected that all the hotels from the places
mentioned above will send some sort of an
equipage. No prizes are offered for decora-
items as at Bethlehem, 1t being the object of
the executive committee to discourage elabo-
rate and costly decorations The prizes are
for the best general effect, but of course the
decorations must be considered If such are
made, and that they will be made, and on an
extensive scale in some quarters, there is
abundant indication. There are offered first
and second prizes for the best coaches, and a
prize to the winning ball team, 1t being ex-
pected that a team from this side of the
mountains will compete with one from the
other side.
Trains over the Maine Central, including
the morning special from this city, will take
passengers from Portland for one fare the
round trip.
