has taken this as compliment to himself
and promises to spare no pains in making g
the display particularly fine. The num-
Der of bands will not be decided until next
Friday.
The committee expresses itself disposed
to favor the presence Of union men among
the musicians as far as is possible, yet it
may be nece ssary to have some non-unlon
men in line. The Musicians Union has
met the committee in very amicable
manner and has offered to play in the
parade with the non.union men, owing to
the fact that it is a patriotic celebration. I
The Grand Army men are going to turn
out in good force, and the Seven Pines
Circle, Woman's Relief Corps, is now pre-
pairing float of great beauty, the nature
OF which they refuse to divulge. The Vet
eran Volunteer Firemen will be promi-
nently placed in line and will turn out in
large number. The Fire Department will
also have large representation in the pa
rade.
Besides these the League of the Cross
Cadets will turn out with all their COM
panies. The Sons of Revolutionary Sires,
including some of the most prominent
citizens, will be represented. An invita-
tlon has been sent to Governor Budd and
staff, and it is hoped he will be present to
add to the glory and pageantry of the
day.
The staff officers have not all been Sc
lected, as all the appointees have not yet
been heard from, and the announcements
will not be made until all the returns are
in. 1t is provided, however, to have one
chief of staff, five chief aids, thirty aids,
twelve marshals of division and twenty
four aids to the marshals.
The literary programme promises to be
exceedingly fine. The chairman of the
literary committee already has received a
great quantity of poetic effusions, and the
competition for the $50 prize is very keen.
The decoration committee met yester-
day, but decided it could do nothing until
it was allowed $500. ALI committees
are instructed to hand in type written re-
ports OF the amounts OF money they re-
quire by next Thursday, when the execu-
tive committee Will audit them, together
with the reports OF the finance committee
on the amount received. appropriations
will then be made, and all committees will
thereafter work with more defniteness.
A communication was received from the
Retail Hatters' Association, saying that
all the places cf business Of exclusive hat
establishments would close on the Fourth

THE CARNIVAL QUEENS
Four Will Probably Be Chosen to Sit
Beneath Cardinal, Blue and
Gold.

At the meeting of the executive commit
tee Monday of the Carnival of the Golden
Gate the proposition submitted for
charging 10 cents per vote IN the electing
OF carnival queen was defeated. 1t was
decided that aspirants to that honor
should send in their applications to the
executive committee accompanied by
vouchers from two business men of good
standing. The dates for receiving apph-
cations are from July to Septem Der 10 at
10 P. NJ. The executive committee will
directly choose the queen from these
applications.
t There will be probably queen repre-
senting the State of California, one for the
City, one for the Fire Department and
one for the school-childreu.
The colors for decorations and badges
will probably be com blnation of the car
dinal of Stanford with the blue and gold
of Berkeley, which is said to be particu-
larly snowy and beautiful. These colors
were the original suggestions of T. l..
Rosenthal.
A prize of $25 will be paid by the execu-
tive committee of the Carnival of the
Golden Gate for a design which will en-
body week OF festivities and be sym boli-
cal OF San Francisco and its Golden Gate.
All drawings must be done in ink and be
submitted to the executive committee on
or before Monday, July 6, at P. NJ. The
accepted design will become the property
of the com mittee and will be copyrighted.
1t will figure on all the stationery and
badges and be conspicuous in all decora-
tions
1t was deemed advisable to leave the
final selection of carnival colors, badges
and regalia to the committee which Chair
man Warfield appointed as follows: f. A.
Haber, Raphael Well, J. J. O'Brien, w.
d. Harper and William Newman.
Owing to his absence from the City
Major Rathbone resigned and S. H. Fried
lander was appointed upon the executive
committee upon the recommendation OF
the committee on theatrical benefits.

P. J. Gray delivered stirring address
on the advisability of the member of the

that Republican friends were registered as
early as possible. The club was enlight-
ened upon the question of protection by
Richard Downing, Peter Lynch, Richard
McCreedie, Edward M. Sweeney and
9th ers.
The cub will uniform its membe for
the coming campaign, and has engaged a

expectation of having one of the finest drill
clubs in the City. The club adjourned

Burglars BLOW Up Safes.

The ease with which skilled burglars
break open safes, even so-caled burglar
proof ones, causes them to be regarded d
with disJrust as secure places for the de-
post OF valuables. An insurance against
loss by burglars that beats burglar proof
safe is policy in the New England Burg
larry Insurance Company. IL indemnifies
all damages to property caused by the
