adorned with Dlack shirts and neat sash
of yellow silk
Japanese parasoIs were features from
one end of the procession to the other
The members of all parlors were literally
supplied with them. In addition to their
usefulness in keeping off the sun they
were quite ornamental as we'll.
Golden Gate Parlor No. % followed their
brethren of the California and then came
the boys of Alcatraz ParlOr No. 145, Au-
burn Parlor No. SO, Vallejo Parlor No. II,
Sacramento Parlor No. and Sunset Par
lor No. 26. These organizations relied
upon the simplicity of their costume to
WIN the appreciation of the throng, and in
thls their hopes were gratifed. At the
head of this division was Marshal h III.
n. Spring and bis aids A. L. McKendry
and w. Z. Rollins. The Park band dis
coursed appropriate music.
Every member of the order of Native
Sons, according to the constitution, is the
equal OF his brother. Hence the hand of
Fellowship is ever extended. But there
are some parlors who believe in outclass-
ing their fraternal rivals when parade is
under consideration. This fact was evil
dent when E. 7. Sterling, marshal OF the
third division, and his aids, j. L. Greer
and George Scott, led Stanford Parlor No.
70 and Oakland Parlor No. 30 into public
gaze. Professor f. Won der Mehden's
band was at the head of the parlors, and it
must be admitted they presented decid-
edly imposing appearance. They were
clad in dark clothes and blue sashes, and
wore Jaunty white caps of the yachting
pattern. They were deserVedly cheered all
along the line of march.
Immediately behind them came Palo
Alto Parlor No. 81, its members wearing
tailor-made suits of pure white duck, with
white straw hats. This parlor belongs in

rear of the division. Their umbrellas were
held In an upright position by toy balloons

Yardley's Stockton band created no end
OF merrlment at the head of the fourth
division. The musicians came to San Jose
with Stockton Parlor No. and Tracy Par
lor No. 1877, but the natty uniforms were
left among the tules of the San Joaquin.
In place Of them the music manipulators
appeared on the streets as party of hay
seeds pure ana simple. Linen busters,
overalls, jumpers, faded overcoats, decayed
boots and liberal sprinkling of door-mat
whlskers formed the basis of their make
up. Had it not been for the excellence of
their music the band boys would certainly
have been ordered from the ranks on their
appearance alone. The two parlors men,
toned, together with Byron Parlor, were
iod wr-ikh
huge sunflowers.
Hesperian Parlor No. 137, Mantle Par
lor No. 105, Alcalde Parlor No. 154 and

The spectacle of about fifty young Cali
fornians, topped off with cute little baby
bonDets and small paraSols to match, was
one OF the principal features of the filth

Ia the order is possessed by this latter or
ganization, and hardly had the exclama-
tion OF admiration died away when The
San Jose drum corps announced the arri-
val of Yerba Buena Parlor No "a. with
another magnificent specimen of art in the
| form of a banner. The Presidio ''baby"
paror brought up the rear.
Marshal A. II. Bailey and aids. F. n
Buck and j. G. Greer, enjoyed the proud
distinction of leading one of the most
picturesque divisions of the lengthy parade.
Santa Cruz Parlor No. 26, n. D. G. W..

| light and airy. and the mem bers of Santa
! Cruz Parlor No. 80 completed the artistic
effect produced by the ladies' The bows

side Parlor No. 90, Redwood Parlor No.
