LA FIESTA NOTES.

one is permitted to get a peep at them,
however. as they are not to be put on

which particular design shall be ac-
cepted as the official poster of the Fiesta.
of 1897.
Competition is lively The first de-
sign for poster submitted came from
San Diego. Bakersfield, Pasadena and
other Southern California towns have
been heard from. Many local artists re
competing, and at least one design is
coming from beyond the Atlantic.
Secretary Walton says some of the de-
signs entered in the competition are al
together unique and the committee will
have a fine collection to select from.
Designs for the Fiesta emblem or coat
of-arms are not coming In so rapidly.
The reason, perhaps, is that the prize
offered Is not so great But something
unique in this line will give the success
full competitor more advertising than the
poster will, as the emblem will appear
on all Fiesta stationery, badges etc,
1t Is not true, as has been reported.
that the Fiesta tribunes will be located
at the old Washington gardens. 1t is
true that the executive committee has
filed lease for the grounds with the
county recorder. 1t is not intended to
make show place of the premises, how
ever, but simply to construct the floats
there, as was done last year. Work on
the floats will soon be commenced. The
location of the tribunes has not yet been
decided upon.

There was an unusual amount of ac-

terday afternoon. Carpenters painters,
paper hangers, gas men, window clean
ers, etc., were working as hard as pos

paper, hammering and saving told that
the carpenters were busy. A sign writer
was just lettering the windows with
volunteers Of America-Meetings Ev-
cry Night-All Welcome" The re-
porter then stepped in and found Cap

work in this city, and who decided on
the favorable location and fine appear
ance of the Volunteers hall. The cap

Angeles deserved the best the Volun-

visit of Mr.. McCarger to Southern Cali

finest city he has had the pleasure of
visiting. and as he has travelled with
