1b. Enthusiastic Boys Did Lots OF Yelling
and walking, and Are Now stin and
sore-The Times Float.

A, ,bs business men OF Richmond went
O. thcir several pursuits yesterday either
,ron the cars or on foot. there was in
,beir faces an absence Of that lightsome-
moss and hcalthfulness which are the
usyal embellishments.
The parade OF the night before had left
as traces either in the swelling eyes OF
those who looked on the red fire when 1t
burned. or those who looked on the red
wine while II fixed.
The merchants. bookkeepers. clerks
bankers. manufacturers. took up the ends
az business with no little reluctance ana
sehs coupled with remorseful remarks s

with so few accidents
several street cars after the paraue
found Il no easy matter to move east

An went well until the Seventh-street
hUl was reached, and then It was that
both motorman and conductor had 10
onnlv themselves 70 the brakes until
Franklin was reached.
one car went down Seventh all right,
hut on the Ninth-street Hill the two EN-
Rtneers"-the motOrman and conductor
lost control Of the car and it was by the
r9rrowest possible chance that the car
did not sail into Rueger's saloon. For-
tunafolv. the car was crowded ana
tha heavy weight kept the car on the
rails. and the conveyance proceeded peace
fully on its way.
After the parade the swell clubs were

II was a funny sight to see many OF
me clubs from Richmonds eastern pre-
ciucts return 10 their homes. Banners
transparencies and all similar decorations
we're used as fuel for bOnfires on lower
Main street and long after the parade had
disbanded the merry-making Democrats
I'm the vicinity Of The Times Office were
Yelling for Cleveland, and kicking up a
ROYAL good time in the middle OF the
street -
The splendid showing by the Demo
cracv Of Richmond and surrounding
places was the talk Of the town yester-
dav morning, and everyone was OF the
opfnion that Richmond never in her his
tory made such a splendid showing. All
classes and conditions Of men were loud
I'm their praise, and some, poor Ieilo"s'

BUSINESS will now settle down In the
old ruts. save where progressiveness puts
fbe enterprise on better grounds, ana an
agree that with Cleveland in the presl-
Dental chair the country Will have -FOUR
wears of peace and prosperity. ALREADY
We see evidences of 1t.
Two trains of ten coaches came In on
the neninsula line Of the Chesapeake and
visitors TO the demonstration. on the
Allegheny road they crowded on from
Clifton Forge all the way down the
line. and spent much Of the time in sing
iuc patriotic songs and hurTahlng Tor
Democratic sentiments.
The cuts OF the floats and Transparent
cies I'm the parade published yesterday
we're furnished the papers by the South
ern Engraving and Stamp Company as
q token OF their joy at the Democratic
victory They We're made under heavy
pressure, but were good representations.
All along the line of march The Times
font caused much admiration. and yes
tcrdav many took occasion 10 congratulate
the paper on the excellent display Some
even insist that IL was he best IN the
Parade The framework Of the float was
made 10y Mr.. r. Sitterding in a splendid
manner. and the painting and decorating
WAS done by Mr. oliver MOuntcastle'
whose place Of business is on Main street
near Seventh. Mr.. Mountcastle did the
whole work I'm ten hours. and proved him
sef 10 De not only a perfect master OF
bis own trade-that OF a sign-p ainter-but
also a decorator Of no mean ability ana
taste He did hard work on the float and
dd IL quickly and In good taste, and
deserves much credit. This The Times
