SANTA Rosa, Sept. 9.-At9 As o'clock the
train pulled out of Tiburon for the run TO
Santa Rosa. The trip was made without
mishap, except the usual misfortune which

At Petsluma a vexatious delay occurred.
1t seems that the keeper of the bridge over
the raging Petaluma River had not been in
formed OF the special, and the draw was
open wien the train arrived. Some time
was consumed in swinging 1t shut, which
delay gave some of the enthusiastic natives
a long-Sought-for opportunity to scramble
out into the municipality of Petaluma and
howl for pure unadulterated 10y.
1t lacked but few minutes to midnight
when the double headed special of fifteen
ears pulled into the depot A wild burst OF
huZZas and red fire greeted its arrival.
mixed with vociferous words OF welcome.
In fact the pyr0technies opened before the
train reached town. As she whistled Tor
the station lone rocket whlZzed up from a
bayfield, about a mile to the right or the
track, thus giving ample evidence OF the
fact that tie rural native was fully ap-
prised of what was going on in the city.
The San Francisco delegation was cor
daily greeted by Vallejo. Sonoma and the
two Santa Rosa parlors and also by the
entire population of Santa Rosa, which
remained up to witness the demonstration.
The local natives were armed with torches
and were formed in line in the middle OF
the street, facing uptown.
The populaee was armed with nothing
more formidable than good will and cheers,
which they delivered spontaneously from
the edge of the sidewalk as the visitors
marched by. When Marshal John Nc Mimi
Jr. gave the word to start the bands began
to play, skyrockets shot across the heavens,
large bombs exploded in the distance and
the procession moved eff up Fourth street
in a gigantic blaze of glory.
As the torch bearers moved away the
procession fed itself, as it were, from the
train, and when the van reached the gen.
eral headquarters the rear was still in the
vicinity of the depot The visitors were
marched to the headquarters, where the
room committee undertook the hereulean
Job of finding beds and hunks for the crowd.
Hotels and private houses were taxed to
their utmost capacity, and late applicants
for slumber were glad TO wrap their folding
cot about them in Railways and on back
porches. All who really desired to sleep
found quarters, but in the more thiekly
populated portions of the town they did
not sleep much. But then people who seek

SANTA Rosa, Sept. 9-Only one incident
worthy of note occurred on the trip across
the water. Soon after starting the boat
was noticed to have decided list to port.
She heeled over to such an extent as to
make steering matter of some difficulty.
The captain sent the mate below to investi
gate. In few minutes that official re-
turned with the statement that the lop-
sided state Of affairs was caused by tile
Duffields.
"1he what?" echoed the captain.
'Duffields There's forty-seven of 'em,

yelled the skipper as his understudy disap-
peRred from view.
The mate delivered the captains mes

of the party. There were forty-two of
them, aggregaiing nearly three and a
hall tons of Duffields, all the lineal de-
scendaDts of George Duffield, one of San
Francisco's most diligent pioneers. There
was Henry and half dozen or so of his
brothers, a few uncles and aunts, some mar

a Little Celebration That Finally Grew
Into a Big One.
SANTA Rosa, Sept s.-The first consign-
ment Of delegates to arrive were the Vallejo
and Sonoma parlors, which came in at 7:3O
o'clock Thursday evening over the Southern
Pacific Vallejo Parlor No. ", President
Z. B. Hussey, mustered twenty-five strong,
and President julius Pope headed the
same number from SOnoma. They were
met at the depot by the Santa Rosa and
Marshal parlors and escorted to the Sonoma
County headquarters in the Byington build
ing. The hall was layishly decorated with
evergreen, varl-colored bunting and large
banners with grizzly bears on them.
Pending the arrival of the San Francisco
delegates these four parlors opened the
festivities in mild way and kept it up until
the arrival OF the visitors.
The usual delay was experienced in get
ting away from the city and it was nearly
Q o'clock when the big steamer Ukiah pulled
out from the slip with 1000 excursioBists
aboard.
A goodly portion of these were women
and children who came down ahead of the
procession and secured quarters In the cabin
of the steamer for the long and perilous
passage across the bay. There were young
girls and old girls, and matron: with babies,
carrying baskets and bundles of flags,
flowers and decorations. The veteran fire.
men were there 125 strong with the old
machine, Young America" which they
guarded with jealous care. When the
natives came aboard bedlam broke loose.
The young men with drums couldn't keep
still, and high above the clamor of tongues
sounded the rattle of the snares. San Fran
cisco Parlor turned out its Chinese band
armed with those instruments of torture
with which the musical Celestial is sup
posed to discourse sweet sounds. They
opened with choice Chinese selections the
. moment they got settled.
Their limitations of Chinese restaurant
music were very clever and afforded much
amusement. While the boat was pretty
well crowded, yet there was sufficient room
for every one except the standard bearers Of
the different parlors. These young men
early eyinced a restless spirit and went
roaming around the decks with flag poles,
armed with spear-head at one end, tucked
under their arms. No eyeballs were re-
ported missing on the trip, but loud CON-
plants were heard from numerous unfortu-
mates who got prodded in the stomach with
the blunt end
Before the bay was crossed the boat
pulled out of the fog and into the silvery
moonlight which gilded the classic shores
Of Iiburon. Some hailed the moon with
demonstrations of great joy but others did

cooling pairs on the upper deck, in the
shadow of friendly Lighthouses. The moon,
which is popularity supposed TO inspire the
divine passion in the human breast, broke
up these private seances.

the band Hon. E. f. Woodward welcomed
the visiting Native Sons.
In the course of his remarks the speaker
said: at becomes my privilege as Mayor
of Santa Rosa to extend to you the freedom

y. +. Doekery, chairman OF the general
committee from San Francisco, was to have
responded to the Mayors address, but was
too i'll to perform his part.
More music followed. and then Miss

in black silk neglige shirts and yachting
caps. They were q fine-loOking body of
young men, and were quite popular with
the ladies. One feature Of their part in the
parade was pack mule laden with CON-
plete camping outfit such as was used by
the early pioneers n crossing the plains.
The OK team OF 1e49 was also an entertain
ing feature for the present generation
which has been brought up on bicycles and
streetcars. Eight numbering, sad-eyed oxen,
with bowed heads and detected mien,
dragged an old fashioned prairie schooner,
filled with little Santa Rosa emgrants stick
ing out from under the cover in front and
behind. Altamont Parlor represented old
time pioneers on horseback, clad in the
miscellaneous garb of the frontier.
One of the finest turnouts was Sebastopo!
Parlor on horseback, wearing huge straw
hats. They also had fancy float contain
ing handsome display OF fruit.
The veteran iremen, In two companies,
made fine showing. The long tramp was
rather trying to some OF the old men, but
they bore up and made the rounds with the
youngest of tho marcbers.
The machines were gayly decorated with
flags, ribbons and sundry small boys, who
owed their position in the parade TO the
fact that they were related by marriage TO
some of the men on the ropes. They were
the envy of several thousand small boys
whose fathers were not lucky enough to
run with the old machine.
A company of mounted Mexicans in their
picturesque garb took part In the parade.
All the parlors were gotten up in their best
uniforms presenting varied and dazzling
variety. Some of them carried Japanese
parasoIs and managed 10 keep comfortable.
Others spOrted long linen busters, with the
regalia slung over one shoulder.
There were twenty-five carriages In line
containing officers of the order and dslin-
guished citizens. Following Is the form OF

They Remember California, Though
They Are Far Away From Her.
CHICAGO. Sept. 9.-The forty-second an
niversary of the admission of California as
a State was celebrated at Washington Park
to-day by members of the Western Associa-
ton of California Pioneers, their friends
and relatives. 1t was jolly crowd of aged
citizens that gathered under the trees for
picnic. The early days OF Califor MIA were
discussed by the 0ld-time comrades who had
been principals in many ad ventures, and suf-
fered great hardship during the days of
1S49 and 1850. The great prosperity of the
State gave them cause for qualification, and
not little boastful talk about Coroett was
INDUCED in by those dignifed old fellows
who would not mention the prlZe-fight at
home. That queen of the turf, 70 Tambien,
was also an object of pride.
BY invitation the Mexican Veterans were
also on the ground. and they joined heartily
in the fun. They told OF Mexican rule in
California as they remembered it; Of Ere.
mont'S army of siXty-two men battling for
American supremacy: OF the eventful tri-
umph Of the stars and stripes, and the
holding OF the constitutional convention,
and the final admission OF the State into
the Union. All were proud of their age
and events in their early life, and the
Mexican Vets" supplied much that the
'49eis had forgotten. Among the speakers
were Governor Winans of Michigan; Rich
ard j. Oglesby, Ex-Governor Of Illinois
Mayor Leper of South Bend, Ind. and
j. Nj. Studebaker of this city. They all
talked more OF less upon early mining ex-
petitions on the Pacific Coast, and there
was no more interesting theme than the
discovery Of gold by James Marshall at the
old miIlrace In Ell Dorado County, Cal, on
February 4, 1848. Their addresses took the
listeners back over nearly half a century of
time Major Ben Truman added many
thrilling tale to those other speakers, and
Colonel Monastery told of deeds on the Mexi-
can frontier.
Following are the officers of the associa-
ton: Charles Jackson. PRESIDENT; Addison
Ballard, first ylce-president; Thad =. Sears,
second vice. president; John B. Kerr, secre-
tary; David w. Miller, treasurer.

oLD-TIME FLAGS.
Such a Raising MS Was Never Seen Before
In California.


In California.
SACRAMENTO, Sept. Q. - The principal
feature of the evening at the pavilion was
the raising of the various flags that from
time to Tina floated officially over the State.
The exhibition was striking illustration
of the vicissitudes through which California
has passed. The pole used in raising the
flags was the one upon which Commodore
Sioat raised the first American flag ever
raised by official command IN California.
On the platform around the pole were seated
representatives Of the early Spanish and
Mexican families, many of them in the cos
tunes Of early days. and Native Sons and
Daughters of the Golden West
The Spanish colors were raised by Senior
Carlos de la Guerra, a grandson of one 0f
the early commandments of California. 1t
was roundly cheered. while the band played
the Spanish national air, and the captain. the
old Spanish chiettain, rang the old mission
bell of San Bernardin0, cast in 1902 Sonora
Coronel of Los Angeles also rang one Of the
early mission bells.
The Mexican flag was next raised by Don
Antonio Coronal, aud afterward the bear
flag by Ben Welch, Native Son.
When the bear flag was handed down the
flag carried by the California volunteers
throughout the Mexican War was sent up
to the very top Of the pole amid deafening
roar of applause, while the band played

THE COMING CIRCUS.

Commotion In Happy Households Over
Its Approach.
There Is mingled feeling of joy and
trepidation in many happy homes in San
Francisco. The cause is the near approach
OF Robinson's great circus.
The children are filled with joy at the
prospect, and the old folks with trepidation
over the demands for the outlay which
must be endured when family visits a
circus.
But as everybody Is going, and as Robin
sons circus brings with it an aggregation
of attractions never offered under canvas
before, no father is stern enough to resist
the opportunities Of his children for leave
to follow the crowd.
The circus 0ptns On Monday evening at
Central Park. In the afternoon there will
be grand street procession.
Eleven hundred people are to appear in
the great spectacular representation Of the
picturesque biblical story of the visit of the
Queen of Sheba to King Solomon"
The Eastern press has highly exrolled the
beauties Of the grand exhibition. Ger
tainly the like of it has never been wit
messed before. and once seen it is never for
gotten.
1t is the principal feature OF the great
show, which Is said not to be lacking in any
of the other tme-honored accessories of a
big circus, such as the menagerie and aero
bats, clowns and equestrian riders.
