carriages.
the handsomest, most artistic and most
unique decorations.
An effort will also be made to have the
business houses and residences on the
route of march decorated with flowers on
that day.
A misapprehension exists among the
singers in this town that the massed
choruses will consist entirely of members
of singing societies or church choirs.
Everybody who can give satisfactory
proof of vocal power to sing in the chorus
is requested to communicate at once with
Director Charles e. Day. The first re-
hearsal will take place this evening at
O. clock at Maccabee Hall on Main street.
The music committee has received ap-
plications from eighteen bands to furnish
music during Fiesta week. As the vari-
Gus committees have as yet made no re-
port as to the band music required by
them, the committee is unable to make
any contracts for music. The applications
come from all sections of the state.
The Chinese merchants have held
conference with their countrymen regard
ing their appearance in the parade. Ihe
outlook for their participation is excel
lent, although no positive assurance TO
that effect has been made. 1t appears
that there are three organizations OF
Chinese in this town and one of these has
informed the Board of Trade that its mem
bers are willing to turn out and do any
thing the merchants desire.
Owing to the present unpleasantness in
the Chinese quarter the other organiza'
tions have failed to meet and consider the
proposition, but an answer from them IS
expected in few days. Indications are,
however, that the Chinese pageant of last
year will be repeated in a more gorgeous
and extensive manner.
The Fiesta committee are greatly con-
cerned about "all FOOLS night" the last
Saturday evening of the carnival. While
they are in no way connected with that
part of the programme, they feel yet that
they will be blamed if the scenes of last
year are repeated. An ordinance will be
presented to the City Council making the
throwing of -four a misdemeanor.
In order to attract the crowds as much
as possible in different directions, the
Amusement committee has provided an
excellent athletic tournament at Athletic
Park that evening. Those who desire
can come Ell mask. The park will be
brilliantly lighted with electricity, and it
will be as light as if the sports took place
during the day. Prizes will be awarded
and a popular admission charged. In this
manner it is proposed to diminish the
crowds in the main streets.
