 Among the notable decorations along the line of march were those of Dillon & Douglass, Captain William Gleeson, Henry Roth, Captain Doerschuck, Sattig & Ger ner, Captain stelzler, the homes of s. H. Barnes and MT. Disbrow on Howard ave- nue and others.
 Among the finely decorated trucks were those of c. E.. Hart & Co.,, S. B. Merwin 6 Sons, Dillon & Douglass, c. w. Hartung & Go. and Sattig & Gerner.
 s. H. Streets wagon display was fine, attracting general notice, and the H. H. Old's wagon was also fine. All of D. M. Welch & Co.'s teams were out and added materially to the. pageant. Charles Wis sert's wagon was gaily decorated with bunting. On board was a live sheep, trimmed with ribbons and surrounded by baskets of produce. c. c. Andrews & Go. had wagon filled with sheep. Dicker- man, the florist, had 8 large carryall in the parade loaded with flowers and exotic plants, including some of his fine palms, which was one of the most attractive fea- lures of the parade and gotten up in one hours time-lightning express work. L. R. Hemingway's wagon was laden with boys and watermelons and fruit. The boys evidently had good apPetites and en- made fine display. Thousands viewed the procession. In the carriages rode Lieutenant Governor Merwin, MT. Sheiffele and three friends, c. F. Wissert, MI. Adam Sattip, Chris Richards and others. An immense number of people were car ried by the State street horse cars yester- day. Double the usual number of cars and employees were in service from about l o'clock until after the picnic was over. It was busy time for the road.
 The truck and other teams of Strong, Barnes, Hart & Go. were there in great | show. In one great high truck was bay and white spotted OK with giided horns l and parlanded with green. He was a big, l sleek fellow, and to set him off in the most ! attractive way he was surrounded by a | two-barred barrier clothed in red, white | and blue.
 l In another barriered wagon were half a dozen sheep chewing hay and looking death in the face with placid, gentle eyes. l Lee & Hoyt also had another small flock of sheep in fold, their horns tipped with blue ribbons. a
 Notwithstanding the threatening sky
 but little rain fell, only enough to damper the grass little. Had it been perfectly
 clear day the crowd at the park might
 have been bigger yet.
