Mr.. John Mcguire, the famous western
actor and manager, now at Butte, Mon,
told me some of his early theatri-
cal experiences, says a writer in Har-
per's. He went from Salt Lake to
Phoebe in Nevada by stage, under an en-
gagement for a weeks performance.
instead OF a theater-this was in the COS
he found a big shack OF logs, chlnked

No Vacant Honses.

Two years ago when every man who owned
an unoccupied lot built or started to build a
house upon it, with the result that hundreds
of residences of all grades were added to the
number OF the city's homes, the pessimists
declared that the growth of the city in
this respect had far outgrown its actual
growth in population. They predicted that
the result would be harmful for
many years to come, that blocks of
vacant houses would stand as a monument
to over enthusiastic enterprise and injure
the city by reducing values. 1t is very graf
flying that not n single one of these predic-
tons have been fulfilled. On the contrary,
there have been rs many houses built this
year as in any year OF the city's history, and
IN spite of all this there are fewer vacant

If this indicates anything it surely indi-

Six stylish black horses drew the
| float contributed by the BONN Manu-
| featuring company. 1t was novel dis
play. Everything was constructed in a
| rude and rustic fashion. The front was
huge locomotive constructed of plain
logs, and to this was attached cab of
the same materials. The locomotive
exhibited unusual talent and ingenuity
in architecture. The wheels, piston, es-
cape, driyers-all were there, and the
bell of metal rode complacently in its
place. The second float that this COM
pany presented represented its box fac
tory, and it was picture of pas senger
coach. constructed entirely of boxes.
The whole was hand somely adorned by
coiors and banners. Fifty men were in
charge.
The Walter A. Wood Harvester COM
pany came next in the line of the pro-
cession. The large float was drawn by
four dashing black horses, and the har-
vesters, mowers and other implements
that have made the institg ton famous
throughout the world were displayed in
artistic ways. Wheat. oats and other
grains were the embellishments of the
float.
The Kennedy Bros. astonished the
people who viewed the display by an
exhibition of q monster steam boiler.
1t was seemingly too. large and too
heavy for the big six bay horses that
hauled it in the parade.
The st. Paul Foundry company had
possibly the largest float in the line, al
though it did not weigh as much as
some of the others. 1t was AL feet in
height, and 1t represented an infinite
nuf5Ner of machines and other appli-
ance.s, and the whole was artistlcaliy
painted and decorated with flags and
bar srs. The second float presented
by bis concern was representation of
thesnachine and blacksmith shops of
the ihouse, with big crew of workmen
at their respective duties turning out
meebanisms galore.
JfT. Mcmillan gave an idea of the
pork packing industry and the magnI-
tude to which it has grown in the gate
city to the great West. There were
huge barrels and little barrels, bearing
the names of the cities of the nation
that look in measure to st. Paul for
their supplies. Lard pals were arranged
about the float, and there were num-
Der of experts in the business on dress
parade. This float was drawn by six
spanking black horses.
The Towle Syrup company had a
so to speak, of the. typical
maple sugar camp. The great float had

them for the use of business men, show
ing "St. Paul the center of North Amer

with the A, B, G. Completing the float
was the triumphant figure of the job
bers' union surrounded by casks, bar
rels. crates, boxes and packages, all in
white and gold. This float, following
the brilliant pageant of the varied
c0lored floats, did not fail to elicit the
marked approval of all observers.
Minneapolis had two really fine floats
in line, the first representing the milling
industry in complete and tasteful man
ner, with the hand stones of 1880 years
ago being manipulated by two girls.
The second was Greek galley, hand
somely decked, Mercury at the helm,
and the God of Commerce in the waist.
Minneapolis, handsome female figure,
was seated aloft, and bore a torch to
signify progress. These floats received
marked attention, and we're worthy of
the admiration bestowed.
Grand Forks was well represented.

city. His daughter Rosa is the first
female child born in st. Paul; she per-
son ated Queen Victo ria at the celebra-
ton held in this city in 1858 on the occa-
sion of the laying of the Atlantic cable.
The first postoffice OF st. Paul, eStab-
liShed in 1916, was represented. and was
Surmounted by all eagle and escorted by
the ITO carriers in the city.
The float representing the Virginia,
the first steamboat TO come to st. Paul,
was very attractive 1t represented the
river as being rough in 1928, when it
reached here, commanded by l.. d.
Wilkes.
The float representing Locomotive
No. II, OF the Chicago, Milwaukee IL
st. Paul railroad, was drawn by four
horses. This engine drew the first
passenger train to the city from the
East via Prairie du Chen. Austin and
Faribault, Oct. Is, 1858. The miniature
was decked out with flowers and had
groups of statiSt les on shields at the
sides.
The Chicago, ST. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha had an attractive float with a
miniature of the Old-fashioned engine,
and on the front of the float was camp
scene with the tea kettle hung over
ire on a crane.
One of the most attractive floats was
that representing Engine No. 342 of the
Great Northern system. The engine was
mounted on track that was bordered
with sods, grass and border OF oats in
sheat, while the engine was covered
with sheayeS of wheat.

The great day is over.

L hC UudH 10 ONcIs
AS is everything attempted by st.
Paul, it was superb success.
Not drawback or accident occurred
10 mar the symmetry of the demonstra-
jon, which passed along, according to
programme. with the accuracy of clock
work.
The weather was perfection. The
day daWned cloudIess, and the heat of
the sun was tempered by strong and
steady breeze that came in refreshing
draughts from dawn to darkness. 1t
was an ideal day, and smiled upon a
city as fair as the enterprising hand of
man could devise. Never has the Ter
race City looked lOvelier. The beautiful
lawns from which the name is derived
have Just attained perfection of appear
ance, and the foliage so rich and plen-
tiful about the city is now in the fitness
OF its summer glory. 10 the stately
beauty of the city was added the mag
nifcent decorations, which never before
Paul shone with all the beauty and
grace OF bride in the flush of her
browning triumph. And the browning
touch was deftly added by the breeze,
which allowed no flag nor streamer to
play laggard in its duty, but kept each
extended and ever fluttering and rest
less in the dancing current of exhllarat-
Ing ozone.
The crowds were simply phenomenal.
Early i'll the morning the railways be-
gan debarking eXcursionists from every
part OF the state, while the Interurban
lines deposited crowds faster than the
sidewalks could afford the means of
distribution. BY noon the streets had
become Surging masses of struggling
humanity. The VicinIties of the several
arches were favorite rendezvous for the
sight Seers, and the utmost eXertons of
the police were necessary to keep a
thOroughfare. But it was holiday
crowd, good naturally bent on enjoy
ment and the blue-coated Myrmidon
found exercise for no other function
than that of road maker.
Nobody could complain of a lack of
punctuality. Every detail was so ably
handled that the dual procession started
almost on the dot of time. and was COM
pleted in season to permit the throngs
to return to their homes before night
fall.

The City of st. Paul.

One float carried a large model of the
portation line" The splendid depot of
the Great Northern at Grand Forks was
7 presented on the second float while the
| third had as its main feature bread
basket OF colossal size, and the staff of
life was strewn all about to sustain the
motto, I'VE feed the world.'
| CrOOkStOn'S design was caravel,
with pretty girls at the oars, which
were labeled ''stock, lumber, wheat"
| and it made an extremely fine appear
ance.
A square and massive granite build
ing design told of st. Cloud, the "Gran-
lite city," In its recesses workmen
were busy cutting stone. This float
was fine conception in all respects.
Moorhead, the Key city, pictured her
normal school and the dOrmitory, or
ladies' home, soon to be erected. At
the same time she paid compliment to
Hill by carrying his picture, labeled
"Minneso ta's First Citizen"
Devils Lake relieved the line of same
ness in colors by float with orange
and black trappings. The main feature
was large map showing the location of
the city with reference to the Great
Northern. Old Nick had high seat at
the rear end, and his imps lined the
sides of the float, scattering pieces of
the staff of life supposedly made from
Dakota grain.
Kallispel was in line with two floats.
The first bore map showing the loca-
tion of the town in the Flathead valley,
and representing the gold. silver copper
and coal mines of that region. as we'll as
the petroleum and timber. High up on
the second float this booming town was
presented as queen of the Flathead val
ley, with three queenly women from that
section as the benign sovereign and her
maids of honor. In every detail the
floats were magnificent and surprisingly
we'll gotten up.
Go-ahead Everett, the point at which
the Great Northern touches Puget
sound, had three unique and artistically
arranged floats in the procession. The
first showed a map of the territory
through which Mr.. HIPS road travels,
with st. Paul as the eastern, and Ever
EFT as the western terminus. At the
bottom of the map were the talismanic |
words: ''From Puget Sound 100 miles
nearer st. Paul and the East than by |
any other transcontinental route"
Then followed float with a beautiful !
structure, the Temple of Industry"
built OH series Of steps with f1uted
columns of white and gold, the whole
surmounted by 9 canopy. which had a
most pleasing effect. Upon the steps
were placed samples of the work of
the different industries located In the
