thus unexpectedly with the sinews OF war
the little fellows laid siege to the different
booths, and all day long the kind ladies at
the sweetmeat counters were kept busy in
filing diminutive but frequent orders Tor
the good things in their care. Nor was there
a greedy streak exhibited by one of them.
They were whole-souled in their generosity
toward other little children, and even the

IN THE AMPHITHEATER.
During the afternoon, in the amphithea-

ton. 1t was for handsome pin-cushion,
which, after holly contested run. was won
by Mary McElroy.
Immediately afterward the bsys of the

There was great enthusiasm in the pavil-
ion over the voting for the gubernatorlal
chair, the rivalry between the friends oil
Markham and Pond being very pronounced.
So close was the contest all the afternoon
that the leadership was cnanRcu WIFI every
few votes, and the adherents of both candi-
dates were kept in continued state OF ex-
element. At o'clock the vote stood:
Markham 675, Pond 703.
VICTORY FOR MARKHAM.
About 800 people were present last night
at the Pavilion. The entertainment in the
assembly hall was one of the best of the series
during the festival. Miss Nellie Kenny.

and was compelled to respond to an encore.
The volin-playing of Miss Fnhrer,
maiden of about years of age was very
clever. The Apollo Male Quartet sang In
good harmony. and the selections by the
Either Club, under the leadership OF Pro-
fesSOr l.. Becker, was one of the most
charming numbers on the programme. ID.
C. NeaIon presided during the evening.
After the assembly had left the auditory
the excitement centered at the booth where
votes were being polled for Markham and
Pond, who were contestants for the
chair. at 10 o'clock over 1000 votes
had been cast for each contestant,
and every additional vote thereafter
was received with cheers. The interest In
the fight increased TO fever height as the
closing hour drew near, and the bulletin
board was surrounded by throng prepared
to spend the last dollar for favorite candl-
date. When the polls closed the vote stood
1884 for Markham and 223S for Pond.

The rugged old pioneer little dreamed OF

kind of any size on the Pacific Coast. Two
weeks after it was laid its strength was
tested at pressure of 465 pounds to the
square foot, and it only DETECTED one-six-

durability. There was saving of $4,000
over any other style of flooring that might

Closing Day of the Fruit and

Thousands Of happy children attended the
Fruit and Flower Festival at Woodward's
Gardens yesterday and joined in many a
pleasant game with the little waits in whose
behalf it was gotten up. Being school hol-
iday the children present were almost legion,
and how far into the thousands they went
would be hard to say,
OF one fact, however, there is no doubt,
that between 2 and o'clock there were
fully 1900 school children within the gar
dens enjoying themselves as only children
can In viewing the sights and getting up im-
provised picnics in the shady hooks which
the rapidly decaying grounds still afford.

TODDLERS In COURT.
Three Little Children Arrested for Dis

turbing the Peace.
Florence and Freddie Ponquist and George
Lundberg, aged respectively 7, ID and years,
were before Police Judge Lawler yesterday
to be tried for disturbing the peace. They
had been arrested on the previous day on
com plant OF ii. Allari of 513 Geary street,
but when. he was called in court as the
prosecuting witness he did not respond, his
mother appearing in his stead.
Judge Lawlor, as, indeed, all the officers
OF the COURT was very much surprised when
ne saw the Kids toddling into court and
Indignantly inquired how it came that such
small children were brought there to be
tried
The clerk who issued the warrants said he
had no idea who the accused were or he
would never have issued the documents, and
while Mrs. Allari was trying to explain to
the court what bad children they were
tho Judge ordered them discharged from
custody.

and find them correct with the exceptions
Of items noted in memorandum marked

Have also examined and compared the

carefully, and as far as the condition ol
their record would allow, have been able
to make the annual statements shown on

Owing to the laxity Of the monthly
comparisons between the officers, as spec

GRAND SCENERY.
Railroad Engineers Make a Survey of
the Colorado Canyon

Railroad Engineers Make a Survey of
the Colorado Canyon.
DENVER, March 27th.-Chief Engineer
Robert B. Stanton, who left here with a
corps last November to make the prelim.
mary survey of the Denver, Colorado Can
yon and Pacific Railway and grand iupc-
ton to the Gulf of California, through the
Grand canyon of the Colorado river, re.
turned home to-day from Needles. Cal.
for couple of weeks rest.
Mr.. Stanton and his party are the first
men who have passed through the danger
GUS canyon since Major Powell made the
trip, in 1869.
In conversation tonight he said the
construction of railway through the can
yon was perfectly feasible, and that from
Grand Junction, Col, to the Needles, a dis
tance OF 300 miles, the grade need not at
any place exceed over twenty feet per mile
and for the greater part of the distance
would not be more than from five to ten
feet per mile, while the curvature, contrary
to general expectation, would be very light.
and were results much better than he an.
ticipated.
Mr.. Stanton has gathered considerable
data upon the resources of the country ad-
Jacent to the canyon, but as yet the greater
part is undeveloped. 1t is a difficult matter
W put thein lHto ueHnlte shape. between
the head of the Colorado river and the
end OF Grand canyon he passed over $40
rapids.
He graphically describes his passage over
rapid No. 465, below Peach springs, during
which one of his boats was damaged by
coillslon with rocks, end he was washed
overheard by wave and thrown into a
whirlpool. He was sucked and drawn
downward into what seemed a bottomless
river. He finally came to the surface fiftv
feet from where he went down, and was
rescued by his men.
The rapids are many times more dan.
gerous than the onewhere President Brown
and two men lost their lives last season.
but on account of the present party being
supplied with life preservers, no man dur
ing the whole trip has been in danger of
drowning. He considers this canyon from
Peach Springs to be the grandest and most
wonderful of the whole canyon, the
scenery surprising anything in America,
even the Grand Canyon in Arkansas and
the Black CANYON of Gunnison.
He spoke in the highest terms of the
braverya nd faithfulness of the men who
accompanied him on the dangerous Jour
ney. Stanton returns to the Needles in two
weeks to complete the trip from there to
the Gulf of California.
