slant applause. eI
Float No. 8 was of the same order, repre-
senting the Zuni cliff-built city of loyal
lahnah.
Float No. 10 represented the huts, with
some native samples OF the Colorado River
Indians
The founding of a mission came next in
historical sequence to the conquest by the
Spaniard. 1t represented the conquest by
peaceful means of what had hitherto been
attempted only with the sword. A bit of
old mission architecture, with the gray
clad priest and group of his swarthy dis
ciples, made the next picture.
Then came picture of old Spanish life

been passing for some time. The "Grand
.Aleut" was seen sitting on top of his own
icy home surrounded by ice caves and
bergs so faithfully done as to quite per-
ceptibly cool the atmosphere, which had
grown very warm.
Robinson Crusoe, hackneyed subject
that it is, was presented next in very
attractive picture, the thatched-roof house,
Robinson, Friday and the parrot all being
set amid the richly colored verdure OF the
tropics.
Some red-shirted miners led the next
float, which brought the story back to
California again and gave very correct
representation of modern camp, with a
stamp-mill hard at work. Next came a
counterfeit of Suffers old mill, with some
more red-shirted miners.
The last of the series which have COM
prised two divisions of the procession IS
the car of the angels designed for the
queen herself 1t was certainly regal
affair, well fit for the queen of the angels
festival, but she had other plans. A sub
stitute was sought among the Angel City s
most beautiful young women and one was
found. She sat high up under a spreading
shell-shaped canopy of blue and around
her was group of other angels scarcely
less beautiful.
The front and rear of the great royal car
was elaborately embellished with rocco
and renaissance ornamentation in bur-
nished gold, the whole producing an effect
of pale blue, gold and silver, designed to
link heaven and earth in the spectators
fancy.
This closed the series of specially de-
signed allegorical floats and the second

picturesque suggestive and yet historically
faithful representations gave evidence.
The seriessof floats were led by that of
the gilded man, "El Hombre Dorado"
which is spoken of as the'Amercan golden
fleece. 1t represented an old Indian Gus
tom of South America, in which chief,
powdered with gold, at certain day every
year spraug into lake, the gold being
washed off, settled to the bottom as an Of
fering to the gods. The custom became
linked with myth and fiction, was respon-
sible for wild stories of golden men and
cities, to find which exploring parties
searched and explored the continent.
The birth of the Inca of Peru was repre-
sented in the second float, showing an
Inca palace of cyclopean architecture,
with the head Inca, in the presence of a

tanned. The newspaper men entered the
city with fiesta cry of their own, which
runs like this: "Hey- -Hey-Hey." "Hey-
Hey Hey, G. P. A. Fiestap'
A press had been brought along and the
excursionists issued from it the first num-
Der of "La Fiesta Jaunt, which announces
in its salutatory that it HAS come to

ated to permit of no division of attention
or interest by the spectators, and allow
ing their artistic merit to be properly
measured.
The fourth float represented the next
scene in the story of Atahualpa. The
Inca had offered Pizarro gold enough to
fill his prison if he be given freedom,
planning all the while to overthrow his
captors. The float represents the natives
bearing their golden vessels into the
room, which is already half filled and con-
tains the Inca's golden chair.
Float No. 5 shifts the scene from South
America to Mexico and represents Monte
yuma; the great warchief of the Aztecs,
surrounded as he is represented to have
been at the City of Mexico, by all his bar,
baric pomp and magniticence.
No. is entitled, 1.-The Aztec Sac
rifce," representing the terrible slaughter,
which, before the coming of the Christians,
characterized the heather method of ap-
peasing the gods, all conducted by their
bloody priests.
In the fgure-piece the priest is seen in
his official robes on the summit of the
Teocalli, with the unhappy victim before
him, while 9th ers bow before the priest.
No. represented bit from the seige OF
the City of Mexico, representing the high
walls of the city, over which the Aztecs
with their weapons appear.
No. was very fair representation OF
the house of the Pueblo Iryiian cliff
dwellers. A band of Pueblo Indians, the

Good
Reputation

Is plant of slow growth, and
this is especially true of a bust
ness firm.
Then, too, the good reputation
that a firm has been years in
gaining can be swept away by a
few unbusinesSIike transactions.
We do not preach honesty when
we say that in the ten years we
have been in the shoe business in
BrattlebOrO we have fully appre-
ciated the above facts.
We make every sale as though
the next depended upon it, and
rather any time lose the sale than
to lose a customer.
This is the reason why we carry
the Crack Proof rubberS when
we might sell other makes and
get a larger profit; but then we
shouldn't get the same reputa-
ton.
We have heard shoe dealers say
they wouldn't sell them for the
reason that a customer would
wear out two or three pairs of
the ordinary make to one Of the
Crack Proof. That is just the
reason why we sell them so as to
give us a good reputation.
Now any one coming into town
with a lot of old goods dear at
any price, or owning, in any way,
boots and shoes for more than
they are worth, and expecting to
stay but a few weeks, wouldn't
feel that his reputation was at
stake.
Then, again, they wouldn't be
here to fulfill a warrant such as
we give on every pair Of boots
and shoes we sell, and we expect
to be here as long as we live to
make it good.
If any one is looking for bar
gains we always have them as
cheap as the cheapest, and for the
next few months we shall make
low prices to make room for
spring stock.
1t is always safe to buy your
footwear of

why Farmers Are Not Prosperous.


"Do you know why our farmers are
not more prosperous" asked Jim Nc
Cue, the Marin county rancher, poll
tician. horse doctor and philosopher.
swell, I'll tell YOU" he continued
without waiting an answer. 'It is be-
cause the farmer, rancher and dairy
man thinks he must sell everything to
the commission merchant or the re-
taller He drives into town with q
wagon load of butter and eggs or water
melons, sells them in ten minutes for
whatever the stOrekeeper will pay,
plays pedro the rest of the day and
goes home with a couple of plugs of
tobacco, bottle of whisky and some
bad cigars. Then at the end of the year
he wonders why he has made nothing.
Once q San Rafael butcher went to
a neighbO of mine to buy a steer.
What do you want for him? asked
the butcher
"'Oh, about $50

"'AIl right; take him.
I can't take him right now. Be-
sides he's too poor TO kill
All right; leave him here till you
get ready to take him away
The butcher left him till fall and
then he weighed about zoo pounds.
When he took him away, the farmer
said:
When you kill that beef I'd like
TO have a quarter
All right; I'll send it down
"a few days later the farmer stopped
in at the butchers shop to settle up.
oh, yes; glad to see you. Got your
bill all made said the butche, and
he handed out this statement: 'Mr
Farmer. creditor, by one 400-pound
steer, at 4 cents, SIG; debtor, to one
hind quarter of beef, 1S5 pounds, at 10
cents, $3.50; balance $3.50
THE farmer had given his beef and
$3.50 for a hind quarter rather than
put in a day slaughtering, and then he
wonders why there is no money in
farming. If he could just raise a crop
of brains he would be all right"
