The magpie habit is one of the most

thousand after thousand of men, women
and children, all actuated by the COM
mon purpose of assisting her to cele-
brate her harvest festival.
Nicoliet avenue was dressed for the
holiday. Standing at Bridge square, as
faI as the eye could reach one could see
nothing but waving decorations and
Haunting banners. The very telegraph
poles. those eyesores to beauty-loying
eye. had become things of beauty.
Swathed in bunting of varied bues, they
looked like monuments to pleasure.
Broad strips Of bunting ran hither ana
thither across the street. the gay colOrS
toned down by the quiet ele-
gance of the dyes distilled in Ma
lures own laboratory and used to
color her most valuable fabrics.
Corn, wheat, oats, rye, grasses, woven
into WreathS and arranged in feStoons,
spoke of the prodigality of the harvest
to be celebrated. Store fronts were
hidden behind sheaths of golden grain.
From almost every window the pumpkin
smiled. the squash leered, the apple, the
peach, the grabe, looked on in flushed
interest; the potato blinked his many
eyes and grinned at the pasSer-by. At

Nicollet had been roped off and no teams
were allowed to cross it after 1890.
The people were gOod-natured and I'M
complaining for they we'll knew that all
these precautions were necessary. At
Tenth and Nicollet was the main stand.
1t was reserved for the guests of the city,
the visiting newspaper men and the
local writers. There were the mayor,
the city officials, the chairmen of nearly
all the Harvest Festival committees and
all the visitors. The out-of-town Dews-
paper men and the officials of other
cities were collected at the West in The
morning and supplied with badges
and tickets that entitled them to
all the privileges of the NUM-
cipality. There, too, were the judges
on floats and on the bands. 1t must not
be forgotten that Col. w. S. King was
there, too. He let no one else forget il.
He it was who proposed all the cheers
for the visiting bands and floats from
out of town and the local displays that
were of striking merit and represented
industries of which the city is proud.
Down on Tenth street were two more
big stands and two more on Park ave-
nue.. All these streets were decorated
in the most gorgeous manner. All that
bunting could do. backed by the prod
ucts of farm and garden, had been
done. The aristocrats of Park avenue

business center those streets were not
empty of people. In every house was
small party. Sometimes, indeed, the
party was large one. The stands out
there were crowded. And the sight
SeerS in these localities were just as en-
thusiastic as they who leaned against
the lampposts further down town. All
cheered and cheered again, as the noble
display swept past revealing the re-
sources Of Minneapolis and the glories
of the Northwest.

igation was every Minneapol-
tan's resolve. The Flambeau
club and the Knights of Pythias paved
the way Tor the display of the Mime
aDolis public schools. There was a
float devoted TO statistics on the growth
of the schools, two of symbolic pictures,
"Spare the rod and spoil the child" and
the more modern method of teaching,
two exhibiting work in manual train
ing. and one full of little girls belonging
to the sewing classes. Then came the
banners of the high schools and the
grammer schools. There were forty
seven of them. each one borne by hap
py little fellows. to whom the honor of
having helped carry banner in the
great harvest parade of '91 will ever be
a pleasant recollection.
An old-fashioned stage coach came
numbering along. On the roof we're

The first float carried a miniature park
and statistics on the Minneapolis park

The engineers Office and the health
department were the only city depart
ments represented. The q. A. r. had a
float that evoked cheers wherever seen.
Likewise the Soldiers home. The
county offices were represented bya
miniature court house. In it were all Of
the officers, and all were busy with the
affairs of the public. The county
treasurer looked calm and con-
tented as if there never had been
such thing as June settle-
ment. Individual displays followed
There were real estate offices. imple-
ment shows, manufacturers, and float

the wheat in the old style, while another
was threshing with the frail. Every
implement that is now or ever was used

them were in actual operation.
A favorite form for representing the
wealth OF the community,O the amount

colors known to nature and art caught
he rays CT the morning sun and flashed
hem back, quivering with the light of
estivity.
So it was in the early morning. Then
the people for whom all these prepare
tons had been made came out to look at
what had been done. They, too, were
in holiday attire. Their faces bea med
With happiness, as much as to say, For

were Joined by the visitors from abroad.
Back and forth through the long streets
they marched drinking in the beauties
spread before them, whetting the appe-
tite of the eye in anticipation of the
royal feast to be served later in the day.
Never did Minneapolis see such a
crowd. They came from all directions
and in all ways. They came in from
the surrounding country in wagons and
those who had no wagons came on
foot. Every train was crowded.
They came from distance the night
before and in the morning they flowed
in from all the surrounding towns. No
accurate estimate can be made of the
number of people that came into the
city. Tuesday night all the hotels were
full and the late corners had to content
themselves with a cot or a section of
stairway. They were but the advance
guard. st. Paul,S contingent did not
come till the morning and st. Paul did
well by the demonstration. 1t is eSti-
mated from the loads hauled by the
electric and short line trains that fully
$4,000 came from the sister city. 1t is
more than likely that the correct num-
Der. was much greater. Fully as
many must have come from the other
cities and towns of the Northwest. 1t
is not overStating the matter when it
is claimed that there were fully
100000 Strangers in the City.
These thousands came to celebrate a
great event in the history OF the North
west. And it was celebrated TO a
sumptuouS degree. 1t was no ordinary
parade that wound through the streets.
1t was Stupendous array of beautiful
creations. The parade was not less
than ten miles long. 1t required a few
minutes less than four hours to pass
that given point that always is set up
whenever there is parade of any con-
sequence to be moved. 1t did not move
slowly either. All pvblic demonstra-
tons IN the Northwest are compared
with the Willard parade of 1883 and
measured by that standard. Beside the
pageant of yesterday the Willard parade
sinks to the level of an ordinary process
sion. Yesterdays outranked it in eX-
tent and UNNECESSARILY in magniicence.
1t was beautiful spectacle, beautifully
significant in a beautiful land, and
spread before a great people on most
beautiful day. 1t will rank as one of
the greatest civic pag eants of the world,
if it did not surpass them all. Nothing
like it was ever before seen on this COLI
tinent.

parade to start before o'clock. 1t
started on time exactly, probably the
first time in the history of the world
that big parade did start at the adver-
tiSed time.
Promptly at II 40 the boom of the big
gun at the exposition warned the mar
shals that il was time To start. In
stantiy the streets were cleared. The
marshalS gave their orders quick and
sharp as Of men accustomed to act with
dispatch. The head of the procession
moved off 10 the music of the bands,
the floats fell in in the rear and Within
a few minutes the whole lne was IA
motion.
A few minutes past l the cry. Here
they come" arose on the stand al Tenth
and Nicollet. The bright uniforms of a
band were seen approaching. 1t was
the advance guard. The mayor at the
head of the city officials and the visitors
marched up and took seats in the stand.
A few more minutes and the parade
hove in view.
First came the inevitable squad of
mounted police, with the inevitable
Lieut.. Coffin at the head. The police
departments float followed, covered
! with the fruits of the harvest. Supt.
Henderson on his black horse and in his
new saddle rode at the head of the pa
trolmen. They marched with their
chests in front of them and with the
precision of veterans, even if they have
been drilling but few days. The old
hook and ladder truck of the fire de-
| partment in 1871 trundled along, look
| ing as archaic as plug hat of '49. 1t
was followed by the new water tower
| representing the department of to-day.
! Then the Stalwart fremen stepped
briskly past the stand, as fine looking a
body of men as ever wore the blue.
These boys know how to do some
thing beside fight fires. They had
every pie piece of their apparatus in
the parade, and they eQualled the most
pretentious in their decorations. Every
engine, every hose cart, every supply
wagon, every hook and ladder truck
! was Rerambulating garden of the
| gods. The cleaning nickel and
! the shining brass contrasted strongly
with the wealth of natures provisions
that had been arranged over them
II every conceivable form. No fruit
no vegetable, nothing that grows on the
earth in the Northwest was missing
| from the property of the fire depart
ment. Their exhibit was show i'll
/ itself. Natures most bOuntiful gifts
| were displayed in the most bewildering
manner, yet in a way that pleased the
eye.

THE PRAISE SERVICE.

a Large Audience Attends the
Services at the Grand Opera
House.
The assemblage which occupied the
Grand opera house yesterday morning
during the harvest Festival praise serv-
ice was remarkable in a great many re-
spects. 1t was remarkable in point of
size, the house being crowded to the
very doors: it was remarkable also in
that it was composed principally of re-
ligiOus people who do not usually at
tend the theater, and most of all was it
remarkable in that it comprised people
of all SectS and religions. Although it
was evident that every member OF that
vast thrOng was full to the brim of
enthusiasm, the audience was quiet
and orderly and the exercises were
conducted in most reverent manner.
The theater was pIettily decorated for
the occasion and large banner on the
stage bore the inscription, 1.-The Earth
Is the Lords and the FullneSS There
Of" On the stage sat all the leading
ministers of the city, Rev. j. ii. futile,
late of the Church of the Redeemer,
presiding over the meeting. The eXer-
ciSeS opened with music by the Fort
Smelling band, after which DR.. futile
made few Introductory remarks-ex-
planning that the meeting was held to
lift all hearts in thanksgiving to the
giver of all things.
The boy choir of Gethsemane church
led by Erof. Bass then entered singing
an appropriate professional hymn.
As soon as the choir was seated the
anthem. Praise the Lord, o Jerusa-
lem" was rendered, Master Anderson,
the boy soprano, singing the solo parts.
Tile congregation. led by the military
band and choir, sang the dOxology,
after which Rev. Falk Gjertson led i'll
the Lords prayer.
Rev. j. j. Faude led in responsive
reading, the congregation being led in
the responses by Rabbi Marks. A large
chorus sang the ''Reapers' Charms, I"
from Ruth" and Rev. Francis L..
Hays then read responsive selection.
Rev. NJ. ID. Shutter concluding the re-
read the Harvest Hymn" the congre-
CATION singing it after him.
The God of harvest praise;
In loud thanksgiving raise
Hand heart and voicel
The valleys laugh and sing;
Forests and mountains ring;
The plains their tribute bring;
The streams rejoice.
Yea, bless His holy name,
And joyous thanks proclaim
~ Through all the earth;
81 To glory in your lot
Is comely; but be not
= Gods benefits forgot
-. Amid your mirth.
The God of harvest praise;
-a4 Hands, heart and voices raise
With sweet accord;
From field to garner throng,

Then followed four eloquent and ap-
propriate addresses by Rev. o. a..
Tiffany. Rev. Smith Baker, Prof. D. v
