THE FOURTH'S PARADERS,
SaSheS and Badges to Be Worn
by the Officers of
the Day.
AIDS TO THE GRAND MARSHAL.
A Request That the New Young
Lady Bicyciists Be Given
Representation.

The celebration of the National day this
year is to be the grandest that San Fran
cisco has seen for several decades. Thus
far funds have not come in as rapidly as
the committees had hoped, but those who
have the celebration in charge are conf
dent that the needed money will be raised
every department..
No money will be wasted, however. The
auditing committee spent yesterday after
noon in scrutinizing bills and prices. Sew
erai cuts on claims were made, but the
claimants declined to accept them.
The regalia committee has prepared a
report of the sashes and badges it has
chosen for the officers, aids and marshals
of the celebration. The report is not yet
complete, as no badges for the ladies have
been selected. The members of the COM
mittee claim, however, that the women are
not going to be left out, and emphasize the
statement that the souvenir to be fur
nished Rev. Anna Shaw will be particu-
larry distinctive and appropriate. The Sc
lections thus far made are as follows:
Grand marshal-Purple silk sash with golo
bullion trimmings, National shield over heart,
bearing dates 1776 and 1895.

| The executive committee has requested
the grand marshal to select young lady
to represent the new young lady bicyclists.
She must be dressed in the most modern
uniform-corduroy boomers, shirt, vest
and white straw hat with yellow band.
The prevailing opinion among the COM
mitteemen is that a native daughter of this
City should be chosen.
