LOS ANGELES.
Arrival of the Merchants Excursion
 Over the Santa Fe.

Yesterday afternoons Santa Fe train hundred excursionists from northern Arizona and southern California. The Merchants association of Los Angeles formed the most considerable portion of the arrivals. At the depot was a committee in readiness to receive the visitors and they were promptly es- corted down town to join in the pa rade and participate in the festivities.
 Concerning the personnel of the party, the Los Angeles Herald says:
 Mayor Rader had intended accom- panying the party, but his illness pre- vents this. The city, however, will be represented officially at the carnival by five councilmen, which delegation forms majority of the council Those representing the municipality are Councilmen Stockwe.l, Kingery, Shy der, Savage and Pesse,l. The mem- bers of the Merchants association who will go are: Max Meyberg, J. s. Salkey, A. Kinney, John F. Francis, J. H. Tolfree, Herman Frank, Carl Selig- man, c. F. A. Last, J. Sunderland, J. A. Fairchild, B. l.. Benjamin, R. w. Pridham, J. A. Henderson, A. c. Jones, J. H. Kiefer, N. s. Hellman, S. Maier, F. w. Braun, s. Polaski, T. B. Newton, Lesser Jacoby, w. A. Kohlman, W. A. Phelps, Newel Mathews, A. B. Billicke, IA. w. Francisco, w. L. Woodward, E. E. Crandall, B. Gordon, G. Stromee, w. l.. Packard, J. J. Bergen, P. Laza- rus, HI. w. Stoll, Frank Simpson, J. o. Johnston, l.. c. Hulburt, H. D. Smith, B: A. Stuart, R. A. Wood, F. F. Stet- son, George Montgomery, c. M Burr, and C. l.. Bisbee. H. K. Gregory, as- sistant general passenger agent of the Southern California railroad, will ac- company the party and see to the con- fort and safety of the gentlemen. Ralph B. Hoyt will also make the trip as The Herald's representative.

facing Washington street are

sidewalk facing Washington street are many lines, appended to which are pennants and banners in countless numbers, forming a regular spiders web. The main entrance of the build ing also presents a pretty sight, for bunting has not been spared to make it as attractive as other buildings in the city. The city hall and engine house, like Joseph's coat, are re- splendent in garments of many colors. The Monihon building and the Ford hotel proudly bear up under yards of bunting of the popular colors and re- rators. The Porter building and the Cotton block have added greatly to the scene of beauty by their very pretty decorations, of which palm leaves take a prominent place in the former. The Heyman corner is decorated regardless of expense, for the entire front is hid den under the gay carnival colors. From the towers of the building large flag made of red, white and vel low sways gracefully in the gentle zephyrs. A line is suspended from the flagstaff of the building to the roof of the city hall, from which other flags of the same colors are suspended.
 The Capitol and Palace saloons are so handsomely decorated that to the observer it looks as if tAladdin's lamp had been brought into requisition and fairy hands had wrought the beautiful scene. The Gilson block is another evidence of the ability of the decorator.
 To describe the many decorations of the Washington street buildings would require columns, but there is one building that is deserving of especial mention, though situated in a part of the city away from the general scene of festivities. The building referred to is the Center street high school. The school board thought that such large building should be in harmony with the other large buildings of Washing ton street and appropriated the money for the decorations The delft hands of the school children did the rest and what they have done can best be ap- preclated by being seen. The Ma tlonal flag, first always in the minds of patriotic young Americans, was sent up Very artistically did the children place the yards of red, white and vel low bunting in order to get the best effect. High over the main entrance of the school large frame with blue background on which is worked in National colors the National school motto: Hope of Our Country" I'm medlately over the entrance is the school motto set in carnival colors: Higher, Still Higher" From all the
 windows float streamers and small flags. It is pity that the school house is not in a more prominent place so that the really beautiful decorations could be admired by the visitors.
 1t would be herculean task to de- scribe the decorations in other than a general way, so suffice it to say that | clad in her carnival robes Phoenix is the finest city of them all.

THE MARKET STREET ROBBERY.
A Policeman Who Doubts the Bank
 Officials Stories.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 19.-The boldest and cleverest robbery known here for some time occurred yesterday when three masked men entered a Market street bank, held up the cash fer and bookkeeper at the point of the pistol, shut them into big vault, raked all the coin in sight into sack and then vanished without leaving trace behind.
 The cashier and boQkkeeper were the only ones in the bank when the masked men entered At the point of pistols the robbers ordered Hands up." Hayshorst obeyed, but Hopkins endeavored to get a pistol from a drawer. IA shot from one of the rob- bers stopped him and he threw up his hands. The bullet did not hit the cashier.
 The robbers then went behind the counter, hustled the prisoners into the vault and then raked the coin in sight, about $700, into sack.
 They then left the building. Po- liceman Dower, who was the first off, cer to arrive, made an investigation of the premises and heard the statements of the bank officials He expresses a doubt that any robbery was commit ted.

 The Arizona Improvement company added to the procession two floats, facetiously termed by the bystanders, Before and after soaking.' The first, '"The Desert" represented an ex- panse of sand, on which had been set cactus of different kinds, greasewood and sagebrush, brown skinned Pima crouched under a bush representing the lord of the plain.

 One hundred and fifty young h. dian school children from Sacaton were led by Agent J. Roe Young, the Butchers association and a couple of hundred horsemen came next and last, 400 mounted Pimas that came in their aboriginal freedom from clothing's re- strictions. They seemed to enjoy the parade and the crowds and did not need to be kept in check Iby the Indian police who headed their line. ..

YEARS DID WELL FOR HIM.
Eo Bought the Boat That Brought Him
 Here Penn:less.


 An interesting anecdote is told of the late Capt. Theodore Julius, whose death occurred recently. Some time ago, says the Philadelphia Record, Capt. Julius went over to q shipyard in Camden to take a look at the old packet ship Tona- wanda, which was being converted into a coal barge. The captain took par ticular interest in the old ship because of his having served as mate aboard her in the early eos. While he stood watch ing the old vessel total stranger ap- preached him and asked: Isn't your narne Julius?" The captain replied iii the afIlrrr2a tive. You were a mate on that ship in the erz2mer of 1G63?" "Yes,'' said the captain. 'sYou don't remember 1ae,'' continued the stranger, ''bus remember you very well. was a steerage passenger on the Tonawanda at that time, being on my way to this country. I've been pretty prosperous and I've just bought the old ship and am going to make coal barge of her, Strange, isn't it, that should come to own the ship that brought me practi- cally penniless to this country?" The captain agreed with him that it was very strange.

BRIGHT, GAUDY ROBES. How Phoenix Looks in
 Postal Attire. Red, White and Yellow are the
 ColorS.
General Description Of the Decora- lions Throughout
 the City.

Phoenix-Such is the name of the beautiful city, and indeed was it ap- propriately named after that fabled bird of plumage, for it has risen" and now, bedecked in fiesta dress, gives a royal welcome to the thousands of wis itors that throng the streets inviting all to participate and make merry in the court of King Carnival, where pleasure wields the scepter.
 In it's bright hued robes the city pre- sents sight never to be forgotten, for in every direction in the business cen ter gay streamers and flags sway gently in the breeze in such profusion that it is bewildering to the eye. Well may the citizens be proud of the many encomiums passed by delighted visit ors on the decorations, for the very wills of the principal buildings are all most hidden behind bunting.
 The carnival colors-red, white and yellow-are visible on every building on Washington street between Second avenue and Third street. These col ors predominate, but diversity is given 'Uy lue uluS1luS Ol JULIET DTlSuI uu6Q colors, contrast both pleasing and in harmony to the aesthetic eye. The National colors, likewise, figure prom inently, but not to the extent of the carnival colors.
 The two arches on Washington street are excellent examples of the decorators art. The background of red, white and yellow, is relieved by palms, which give very pretty effect From the miniature towers of the arches the American flag unfurls proudly in the breeze. The arches are covered with colored electric lights and last night the sight readily reminded the observer of nook in fairyland The electric railway was promptly to the occasion and for several blocks or Washington street the suspension wires are covered with the prevailing colors and from the center of each wire is suspended large stars. Electric lights of all known colors, arranged or the wires, shed brilliant light on the streets below.

THE PARADE.
A Pageant Such as Never Before
 Known in Arizona.

The parade started at 3 from the cor ner of East Washington and Sixth streets. It was led by a detachment of bicyclists wila decorated machines, one being a single wheel with three typical Chinamen mounted. ''se
 Then, the pathway guarded by City Marshal Clark came the marshal of the day, General Ed Schwartz, assist ed by a number of aids and accompa nied by Colonel Scott Helm, Major R. Allyn Lewis, Major Robinson, Captain Wickham and Lieutenant Alkire, of the National Guard.
 The Eleventh infantry band led the three companies of regulars, under command of Captain Gilbreath. The march and department of the com mand was simply faultless, as they tramped in close platoon formation, to the quick, snappy music of the band, bringing hearty cheers from the spec tators
 Col. J. H. Martin led the next sec tion, which was in the main represen- tative of the Indian as he is civilized.
 The Indian brass band was preceded by a veritaible Indian drum major who twirled his staff with the diffident air hardly to be expected of one of his pro fession. linen came seven platoons of boys and even more of girls, who under the eye of their teacher and of Indian sergeants, went through the evolu- tions of marching with all accuracy and a considerable degree of dramatic effect.
 
 The floats of the Indian school were three in number. The kindergarten float was fairly crowded with little tots and was crowned with a cupola in which sat a diminutive brown angel Domestic employment was typified on the next float, showing girls in the varied work of housekeeping, and last came float on which were boys en- gagged in work at various trades taught them at the school
 Company B, N. G. A., turned out un- der command of First Lieutenant L. w. Coggins and was followed by the militia hospital corps.
 The Los Angeles contingent that ar rived at joined in the parade at First avenue to the number of siXty-fve, all prosperous sort of looking business men. They had several banners and most prominent of all a stuffed bear, surrounded by pampas grass plumes and borne upon the shoulders of four stalwart Indians There was a yell, too, something with "Rah! Rah! Rah! Arizona, Ahv' in it and every cheer given them was repeated from the ranks with interest.
 In carriages followed Governor Hughes and Director-General Hatch the city and the county officials and the leading members of the chamber of commerce.
 stArizona, the forty-sixth star of the constellation of states" was beauti- fully typified by Miss Lena Purdy, with all artistic accessories.
 DeMund Bros. had for a float rep resentation of the original Monitor, with a revolving turret and a frown- ing cannon.
 The L. w. Blinn company showed a lumber mill in miniature operation.
 The most elaborate display of all was that of the Phoenix Hay and Grain company. On the first wagon Maud Muller, picturesquely and | charmingly represented by Miss J. A.
