ALL ARE ASTONISHED.
Tele graphic Pictures as Published in
1.-THE CALI Are Watched With
Great Interest.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, April 19.-The
CALL Of Thursday morning came to Los
Angeles to-day. 1t contained the picture
OF the Fresno float, the big steamer laden
with fruit, illuminated with her own cleo
tric lights and otherwise up to date. The
float did not arrive in Los Angeles until
Wednesday afternoon and appeared to the
public for the first time II the Illuminated
parade Wednesday night.
1t would therefore have been impossible
to have gotten even an idea of it to San
Francisco by mail. This fact was patent
to everybody, and therefore when the CALL
of Thursday morning, the morning after
the float had made its public appearance,
came to Los Angeles with perfect picture
of it as it appeared in the night parade in
the park, with the setting of fireworks in
which it figured, the fact that the CALL
had done the thing that only few years
ago would have seemed impossible, accom-
plished that which no other journal in the
world has before attempted, was recognized
as absolutely proven.
For everybody in Los Angeles saw the
thing in fact that was portrayed in the
picture and doubt had no chance Inter

longer an experiment, is quickened and

the Queens throne with their long soldierly
swing, the cadence OF which was as regu-
lar as the drums beat, the officers on
horse and foot saluting, the scene was most
inspiring and the applause was constant.

Gently been made to appear so ridiculous

which certainly must appeal to the artist
in colors.
The gong and tum-tum and the treble
basoo were everywhere in the line, Of
course, but they are old friends, If the
term may be allowed, where mere men,

line, bearing great circular banners like
tents, held in the air by the center-pole, or
other long banners borne by the ridge-pole
on the shoulders Of three or four, were all
dressed in cardinal colors, reds, yellows
and greens, with q great variety OF head
gear, the whole making splendid picture.
a second float of little less magniicence
than the first presented the eight mytho-
logical genii of Chins-good spirits OF air
who perform good offices in time of need.
The genii were represented by galaxy of
Chinese children fancifuliy dressed. Two
other floats were devoted TO alleged musi-
clans and their gongs.
The fourth division was led BY Marshal
Perry Howard and was composed of the
Fire Department. The engines and hose
carts and wagons of the entire department
were in line, all trimmed with flowers,
making beautiful showing, all under the
charge OF Chief Walter s. Moore Mayor
Roder, the Fire Commissioners and visit
ing chiefs rode in carriages and tallvhos.

conducted it with so much energy that he
made the proprietors of the other ne VS.
papers rustic" The gentleman referred
to was C. NJ. Shortridge OF the San Fran
cisco CALL, and he believed the people
present would like to hear him.
Responding TO the invitation to speak,
Mr. Shortridge addressed the meeting at
first slowly, but he warmed TO the subject
with increasing rapidity. His speech was
eloquent, and his remarks were delivered
with so much earnestness as to attract the
closest attention.
He, as well as others, he said, had come
from the north bearing the olive branch OF
peace. There was no geography in him
by which TO divide the State of California.
He had come TO this State without
means, and through the generosity of the
State he had been provided with at least
the foundation of an education. 1t was
not the north nor the south that had done
this, but the whole State. He felt grateful
for what the State had done for him.
The speaker went on TO refer TO the de-
velopment OF other portions of the State,
and using the term "silurian," said that
the individual known by that term is the
clog in the wheels OF progress.
The siIurian cries out for the dollar
limit of taxation and generally lives in q
palace with magnificent furniture costing
thousands of dollars. He viii, however,
swear before the Assessor that the same
furniture is worth only $3.50. Such indi-

And now comes the Chinese continge Mt,

as gorgeous as golden fables, and the recent

years engaged in war, at which neither

In view of this they met at designated

important diplomatic gathering that the
display represented. The two Kings were
seated in float, which was gilded and

million Club delegation meeting was
held this morning at the Chamber of Com
merce, attended by representatives from
surrounding towns. There were about
sixty present. Chairman Bunker OF the
Half-million Club delegation on calling
the meeting to order said:
I'VE may thank Los Angeles again and
again and repeat the thanks the year
around and still be in her debt. She has
lifted our spirits to ecstacy, touched our
pride and clinched our friendship"
His speech, which was of some length,
was heartily applauded, after which
Director-General Mayberg of the fiesta
spoke brity, expressing hearty approval
OF the movement TO bring the various por-
tons OF the State into closer unity. f. w.
Dohrmann Of San Francisco was called
upon. and he spoke along the same line.

viduals, Mr.. Shortridge remarked, are op-
posed 10 such improvements as are pro-
posed to be made in the near future by the
issue of bonds for park and other improve
ments.
The bonds should be voted and the parks
improved. Perhaps it might be said, he
continued. that he (Shortridge) had no busi-
ness TO make such remarks or suggestions
as 70 what should be done. To such a
statement he would reply that he claimed
the right to do so as citizen of the glori-
Gus State OF California. Thirty years ago
brave men OF the nation fought 10 save the
union.
The same injunction that rested on them
to preserve the unity OF the North and
South now rests on the people OF this State
to fight for united California.
Before concluding the speaker remarked
that it is the rich tax-shirkers that want
waking up. There was vigorous applause
as he resumed his seat.
Mr.. Shortridge was followed by Presi-
dent Patterson of the Los Angeles Cham
Der Of Commerce, who warmly echoed
back the eloquent words Of Shortridge.
Chairman Bunker alluded to the society
of Native Sons as having worked in favor
of United California, and asked ex-senator
Del Vale, as a member of that organiza-
tion, to speak. Mr.. Del Vale said in re-
gard to State division that nine tenths OF
the people are opposed to it. There are,
however, few people, he said, who have
little 10 do and they are. TO greater or
less extent, harping on the question.
The following resolution was presented
and adopted unanimously:
"Resolred, That the interests of Cali
fornia demand united and concerted action
for State development, and that we, the
representatives of the various sections of
the State here assembled, hereby pledge
ourselves to work for new united and pro-
gressive California"
On motion it was decided TO have COM
mittee, consisting of fifteen members, ap-
pointed by the chair for the purpose OF
securing permanent organization 10 work
for the unity of California. The meeting
thereupon adjourned.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, April 19.-The
search for Ansel White, the early day
pioneer, who has fallen heir to 81, ,00o, 600
estate in New York, has so far been
barren OF results. Pioneers who know
White say that thirty years ago he sold
his place near this city for 5000 and with
the money went to San Francisco, where
he stopped at the ST. Louis House, a
sailers' boarding house on the water front.
At that time his friends believed he met
with foul play, as he had money with
him. friend who was on intimate
terms says that White would have surely
