Another striking feature of the pa
fade was its uniformity. Not man
was in line who did not wear the white
cap of the society. Members of singing
societies that do not belong to the union
were not allowed in the line.
They formed in lire at NOrmanna
hail at 1890, and marched down Fifth
street to Cedar avenVe, down Cedar aV-
enue TO Washington, up Washington to
NicOllet, and up NicOllet to Eighth
street, and across to Hennepin avenue.
Everywhere they were greeted with
cheers, especially on Cedar avenue and
lower Washington avenue, where nearly
every building had been deco
Eighth street they marched
down Hennepin to Fifth, and wheeled
into line past the West hotel. Upon
The balcony stood Mayor Winston, sur
rounded by prominent Scandinavians of
Minneapolis and visitors from abroad.
Every society had a cheer for the re-
eeiving party as it passed and received
Dne in return. From the West the BOYS
marched to the exposition building and
dispersed.
Yesterday afternoon the members of
the various societies were busy looking
over the city. In all the big Office
buildings, at the lakes, on all street
ears, IN the parks were seen the snowy
caps in groups of from three TO a dozen.
The Swedish Singing society. of chi
cago, which has already been conceded

the W est for the musical people of the
city. Prof. John Ortengren. director
in chief OF the festival, is musical direc-
Tor OF this society. He has brought
Them to high plane of excellence. All
members OF the Scandinavian TYPO
graphlcal union were entertained at
Danla hall in the afternoon.
Friday evening, after the concert OF
he coliseum, the societies marched to
the West hotel and serenaded John
LindblOm and Mrs. Ole Bull. They
sang first a Danish song, then a Nor
wegian, then a Swedish composition.
Mr.. LindblOm replied from the balcony.
Mrs. Bull could not make herself heard.
Instead of speaking she presented the
Berenaders with an address. as follows:
