LA FIESTA NOTES.

Some OF the NotabIs Sido Issues Seen
and Hoard.
The Chicago guests at the Westmin-
ster hotel erected handsome large
sign upon which are the words: "Chi-
cago congratuiates Los Angeles" The
sign cost 500 and was erected by E. F.
Cragin, who is connected with the
Nicaragua canal project. Judge Horton,
]. @. Shsefer and other Westminster
guests. 1t is beauty.
During the fiesta, on each day at the
hour the procession begins to move,
street cars will be kept from the center
OF the city 80 that the parade may be
as imposing as possible and the ranks
unbroken. The street railways deserve
great credit for such CONCESSIONS.
Two masked revslers got into fight
on the street last night during the pro.
cession, and were taken to the station
and locked up for n short time. II was
q case of innocent sport ending in blows.
1t took more than cheat OF oats to
induce the horse to go with the small
cart in the last division. The wheels
were glued.
A FIRE in Cabrillo's boat when it ar
rived at Spring aud First streets caused
more rumpus than conhagration on a
ship in mid-ocesn.
Many of the gentlemen on the street
wore two noses. How many more they
had ere they got homs ia matter of
uncertain conjecture.
The small boy was in his glory for
some time. Delays in the arrival of the
procession was no cause OF regret TO the
average urchin.
The country towns were well represen.
ted among the spectators, but they
weren't in it with the home talent
clown.
Ths opportunity for wearing two false
faces was improved by many in the pro-
cession.
The Chinese pageant was sadly missed
was that the celestial brethren
Qua costumes. In this they were right.
There were no accidents Of any conse
quence during the evening. Chief Glass
said the absence OF serioua accidents
and other troubles was something re-
markable for Huch q large gathering OF
people. 1t is estimated that rs, 900 peo-
pie were on the streets. Never before
was there such thronR in the city.
A masked orchestra, calling them
selves the operstic quintette. serenaded
the HERALD last night. 1t was COM
posed of Fred Knopf, Fred Price. A. G.
Gibbs, 8. ii. Perine and I. Call.
Moye g. Norton, who was one of the
aids in the parade last evening, saved
himself from serious injury by his mas
terly horsemanship. While passing the
Los Angeles theater, the horse becoming
frightened by the discharge of Roman
candle, sprang into the air and fell
PROSTATE on the pavement. Mr.. Norton
retained his seat in the saddle, and with
the assistance of his Spanish bit pulled
the horse up. The whole affair occu-
pied but an instant and was very excit-
ing.

The ticket agents quickly assmulated
with the thousands OF visitors and tine
homo people and every train that ar
rived in the city during the day added
to the people who were guests OF this
city. In fact there are more people in
Los Angeles who claim residences else
where than the whole population of the
municipality. The decorations which
were considered as most lavish and ar
tistic by the visitors were even further
augmented yesterday and where there
was a vacant space it was filed with a
cluster OF palms or a group OF fags.
superintendent of Decorations A.
Howard, who has apparently not slept
for two weeks, seemed to be tireless in
the work of contributing to the beauty
OF the city from spectacular point OF
view.
The hotels OF the CITY are filed to
overlooking yesterday. Indeed standing
room was at premium. Every room
was filled with two or three strangers
and the corridors were filed to overflow
ing. Every room In the apartment
houses was filed and the capacity OF
Los Angeles was strained to the utmost
to entertain'the guests Of the carnival,
but they were entertained. 1t was q
point of honor with every AngeIeilo to
see that each and every stranger was
properly provided with aecommoda-
tions, and 1t is matter OF qualification
to all our citizens that the visitors 10
the city enter go heartily into che spirit
Of the carnival.

1t was q day of kindly Gratulstions. of
the pleasant interchange of the ameni-
ties OF social life, OF merry-makinga and
the reception OF friends and the cement
ing of old acquaintanceships
The spirit Of the carnival seems to
have taken firm and abiding hold on
the people of Los Angeles and they
entered most thoroughly into the spirit
OF the fete with'a hexibiIity and resdi-
ness that indicated that thsy were
thoroughly in accord with the leading
idea OF the dogmss enunciated by the
queen OF the revels.
In fact the good ctizsns OF Los
Angeles ushered in the second day OF
the carnival with an enthusiastic de-
termination to make it day that would
be alike pleasant to remember to their
friends and themselves. There was but
little pretense OF looking after the ordi-
nary avocations, the business affairs OF
life. Everyone realized that the time
had come for play. and the Angelef1oa,
drawn from every part OF the union,
united in commemorating the fact that
1t was their privilege to live in the most
favored region in the world-the chosen
city Of the peerless queen of the ma.
tives--and accordingly they unloosed
the latch strings and each and everyone
constituted himself and herself COM
mittee of one to afford entertainment to
the thousands OF strangers within the
gates OF the municipality.
The leading thoroughfares, Spring
street, Main street, Broadway and other
favored avenues were thronged with
thousands OF people from an early hour.

cries of clowns, imps and hobgoblins.

A few minutes after o'clock the
mounted police crossed Eighth street.
The grand mavshal, chief of staff and
the mounted staff followed.
Then came Marshal A. M. Pasche,
head of the frst division, and his long
staff OF aids oostumsd as Roman

went up as the line started, the front
division wheeling into line from Tenth
street with Grandma rshal Covarrubias
and Chief OF staff Teod at its head.
AS the head OF each division was

feature of the whole parade followed. 1t
was the band Of 800 bicycler5. They
we're the most marvelously attired peo-
pie in the whole parade. Every nation
known wac represented, and not con-
tent with that they represented many
more not known. Well in front was Uncle
Sam and his wife and then they came in
pairs. There were Corsicans, Turks,
Spaniards. dudes, farmers, Irishmen,
Dutchmen, priests. imps, sprltes, devils,
and whole lot OF others. The bicycles
we're marvelously decorated. Some had
cornucopias aud from them hung Chi
neee lanterns. Parasols Of fiesta oolors
were carried by others. The slow pace
was irksome to some of them, but they
were kept we'll in line by Aid Pudhan,
who was ON foot to attend to that.
The float OF the Turnveyein had its
band of ''Turns," grotesquely gsrbed
and seemingly as active and daring
in their performances as ever.
The miners' float with its band OF red
shirted miners, the Prosperity float,
with q crowd Of red imps aboard, and
then the fife and drum corps. The X.
K. Of p. float was escorted by the uni
formed ranks Of the K. of p. of Pasadena
and Los Angeles. 1t was fine looking
body OF men, with plumes waving
and saberssgleaming in the light. The
Los Angeles Business college float pre-
ssnted the same busy scene, and the
floats of the Smith-Premier and Thur
low typewriters followed. "On to
Washington" was presented, presum-
ably az mild ridicule of the Industrial
army.

THE last time | went To Europe"
said an editorial friend of mine, Il
went in very distinguished company.
Among my fellow passengers were
George Gould and family, Widener,
Elkins and Yerkes. the street railway
millionaires, and l don't know how
many more rich men.
ION the second day out there was
the usual drift of fellows CT sporting
Droclivities toward the smoking room
and very soon several games were go
ing on. A very gentlemanly person
who looking on like myself asked me
if ever played poker I said: Yes,
now and then If the stakes were small
After little further conversation we
found three other men, took a table,
and began to play dollar limit game;
some of them wanted to make the
limit higher, but [ was firm and we
kept it down. We played pretty
much all day and then again at night
without any very big hands or any
great variation in luck. Finally, how
ever, [ struck big hand and so did
my gentlemanly friend, who was in
deed quite the most agreeable man at
the table. We backed our hands for
all they were worth, and perhaps in
my case for more, for [ lost. The
same thing happened several times
and the result was that small as the
game was got up from the table $50
out of pocket. The next day we play
ed again but there was very little life
in the game ond finally we gave it up.
THE matter had almost passed out
of my mind when the man who had
won my money came to me one day
as we were nearing the other side, and
said:
Il think 1 ought to give that money
back to you"
Il don't see why" said l. IF [ won
your money | should have taken it."
Yes, but this is different"
How different? | don't under
stand"
well, the fact is l don't mind tell
ing you that am professional"
We'll, if had know that [ don't
think [ would have played with you.
But if you won my money fairly keep
it."
That's just it." he said. Here is
your money. Yon are not the sort of
game | am after l rang in a cold
deck on you during a deal l am one
of the few who can do it."
! Then he went on to tell me, alter
had taken the money, that he had
come aboard expressly to pluck
George Gould or one of the street rail
way magnates, but had given up the
job. The fact is" he said, rich men
nowadays are not like they used to be
So soon as man gets big pot OF

stocks or grain. Sometimes we get
a sucker that has come into fortune
by luck and he is good game, but that
sort is getting scarcer every day.
