HUNDREDS TO Be N LINE.
Labor Day Parade Is Rapidly
Shaping Up.
PRINTERS WILL JOIN IN
c. L. U. Committee Meets and Ar
ranges Several Important Details
ofthe eDemonstratio of March
Mapped Out-Nntices of Particfpa-
tion Received.

The Labor Day committee, composed of
delegates from each Of the local organizes
tions affiliated with the C. l.. u, met last
evening at Bricklayers' Hail to discuss
plans for the proper observance of Labor
Day.
Mr.. William Silver, president OF tho
Building Trades Council, was in tie chair
and there were representatives present
from all unions entitled to representation
except one. AT previous meeting it
had been decided that the day would
he observed by !; street parade, in which
all the org aniZations affiliated with the
Central Labor Union would be invited
and expected 10 participate. All the or
ganizations heard from through their rep
rescntatives at the meeting, signiiied
their intention to take part in the parade,
SO it only remained TO arrange the details.
THESE WILL PARADE.
Fourteen of the organizations heard from
have decided 10 parade in uniform, besides
which each member will wear Il badge or
carry a banner embamatic OF the trade
or craft to which he belongs. Although il
has not been definitely decided 1t is ex-
pected that each union in line will lie
headed by a band or music. The matter of
procuring music is one which is causing
the special committees OF the various unions
In charge of the parade more trouble than
anything else. So, to obyiate any further
trouble, or perhaps disappointment on
Labor Da y the general committee last even
ing instructed the secretary to invite all
the band leaders in the city TO attend the
meeting OF the committee on next Wednes-
day evening when final arrangements viii
he perfected.
The outlook for a large turnout-for
parade is very encouraging 1t is Con-
ridently expected that all the unions rep
resented in the {. l.. u. will be out in
full force and besides these some Of the
other local labor organizations friendly
to that body.
PRINTERS WILL 10.
OF these latter it is expected that the
Bookbinders' Association and Columbia
Typographical Union Will swell the ranks
on that occasion
OF the latter organization there is little
doubt of their participation, for it is said
that the union has already made an appro
priation for the purpose.
The parade Will take place at as early
an hour as convenient, both to avid the
heat and also to allow the members of
organized labor TO enjoy in any other way
they choose the remainder OF the day.
The line Of march will be as follows: From
Mount Vernon Place Park, where they
will assemble, south on Seventh street to
Pennsylvania avenue, then west 10 Fif-
teeDth street, north on Fifteenth street to
+ street, east on F street 10 Fifth street
northwest, and thence to City Hall Square,
where they will disband.
AT the next meeting of the committee
the most important matter to be con-
sidercd will be the selection OF chief
marshal and his aides.

UNCLE SANS FINE CYCLE PATH.
But 1t Is Only for Soldiers and Their
Relatives.
Nor yorI D.sxs

Within rifle shot of the Battery there
is one of the finest bicycle tracks in the
world, but you caD't ride on II, dear cIvi lian.
Thattrack is owned by Uncle Sam, a nd is for
the benefit and hchoof of your uncle's
officers and soldiers ''and their sisters
and their cousins and their aunts.'
The track is one and half miles long and
completely eDcircles Governors Island.
In some places il runs under trees, but in
most of its course it is in tie CIen along the
island shore, and the sea breezcs wander
Ing up the bay ,ool The rushing air that
sweeps by the riders as they career around
the hard, smooth pathway. Al nearly any
hour of the day uniforms can be seen flash
ing along the track.
A group OF soldiers scorchiDg as they
race one another will lie followed maybe
by couple of officers or perhaps a SOLITARY
one, going around a a more dignifiod pace.
Perhaps an officer Of rank, age ard aroir-
dupois will go pGDuerously wheeling around
or n merry group OF young women from the
garrison, accompanied by dashing young
lieuteDants, who lave not yet lost their
West Point waists, will go by. 1t is 4
pleasing panorama anyway, and passen-
gers on the ferryboats, If they are bicycling
devotees look On with envy as the wheels
and uniforms go flashing around in the
sunlight.
The hold that bicycling has taken upon
the uttle community vi ooN cIhoF . isidiiu
is firm one. and the exercise OF the wheel
has become a regular part OF life there as
much as If il were a military duty. Every
body on Governors Island tides, even the
children.
There never was such a place for love
making as this government bicycle track.
Take a summer night when the moon
shines bright and the band is playing on
the lawn in front OF the generals house.
Ocean breeZes come up by the winking
lights of the Narrows and play with the
riDglets of the pretty girls hair, while the
moonlight glances from the spinning wheels
and the gold lace of the young officers
uniform. Any officer with q family of
manageable daughters ought to move
heaven and earth and the War Depart
meDt to get ordered to Governors s Island.
At the social gatherings on the islaEd the
army gossip has given place to controver-
sizes over different makes OF wheels, and
that Difference which used to be paid only
to official rank is now accorded to the
man with the greatest number of "cen-
turies" to his record.
The bicycle path was built by the pris-
oDers confined in Castle william. There
are in that dungeon keep" always num-
Der of military prisoners, and they are kept
at work on improvements on the island.
There are now OH Governors Island sixty
bicycles, and prospect of several more
before the month is out. The tennis courts
are deserted, and the wheel is the thing

A REGULATING CLERK
An Employe Who Had q FondneJs for Shir
Wa;Sf0

A return was yesterday made upon a
search warrant which was used on the
I'D of this month by Detective Auble
in the recovery of stolen goods. The
Parry Shirt company, a Spring street
haberdashery, had for some time a
woman clerk working for them by the
name of Miss Mcdonald. Becoming sus-
picious that all was not right with her,
and having missed goods from time to
time. she was discharged and the police
notified of the suspicious.
Accordingly the search warrant was
sworn out and executed. Miss Mcdonald
roomed at 253 South Hill street, and in
her apartment quantity of stolen
shirt waists, etc, was found. Being
confronted with the evidences of her
crime she wilted. but out of considera-
ton for her. and the fact that she was
woman, the Parry company did not
wish to prosecute. The goods had been
recovered, and she was allowed to de-
part. Since then she has left the city
and the facts did not become known un-
til the return of service upon the war
rant was filed.

THE CHRISTIAN ALLIANCE
Opening Of an Eight Days Convention
Yesterday
Delegates From Many Parts Of SOUTH
ern California The Services

The Christian Alliance, an undenomi-
national organization of believers in the
four-fOid gospel, salvation, sanctifica-
ton, healing and the millennium,
through faith in Christ, began q con-
vention of eight days duration in the
First Congregational church yesterday
morning
Three sessions were held. There was
but small attendance at the hour of
opening in the morning, but the audi
ence grew largely throughout the day,
nearly filling the church at the evening
services. Delegates are expected from
many sections of Southern California.
Yesterday Santa Ana, San Bernardino.
Long Beach and Pasadena, with the
local branch of the society, were the
only divisions represented.
The president, the Rev. w. C. Stevens
or Los Angeles, opened the convention
with words of welcome through appli-
cation of the first four verses of Peter
2, first chapter. The adoption of resolu-
lions pertaining to practical operations
of the convention followed.
The Rev. H. c. Waddell, president of
the missionary training school at Beu-
lah, Cal, addressed the convention on
the Personality of the Holy Spirit, from
John 14:15:16. He said: Jesus Christ
had been. while upon the earth, God
manifest to His disciples. He assembled
into heaven that the Spirit might come.
and thereby Jesus Christ should become
God-manifest in the flesh in his follow
erS.
From o'clock to meeting for in
quirers was held by the Rev. r. w.
Flint, secretary of the association. The
regular session of the convention opened
at 2:SO, beginning with a half-hour SER
vice by the Rev. F.. H. Bickford, mis-.
sionary from Bombay Two addresses
followed. Mrs. H. J. Pierson drew from
the lives of Elijah and Elisha the lesson
OF the calling of the Christian to receive
the Spirit from Christ and truly repre-
sent Him on earth in life and in power.
The Rev. Waddell closed the after
noon session from John 16:14:15, taking
for his theme the office of the Holy Spirit
IN glorifying Christ in the being and life
OF His followers on earth.
In the evening the Rev. A. C. Bane of
San Diego, formerly connected with the
trinity M. Il. church of Los Angeles.
preached an eloquent sermon from John
l4:l6:l7. the theme being the abiding
comforter who was sent in answer to
Christ's prayer to the Father in His con-
Germ for our best welfare.
The Rev. Waddell also made a short
address.
Today the program of the conven-
ton will be as follows

While workmen were removing a
brick wall yesterday afternoon at 9
o'clock at the corner of Third and Spring
streets. where a five-story block is to
be erected, a number of bricks went
through the side window of the little
building at No 30S South Spring, occu-
pied by Lee Kwai Sing. a dealer in Ia
panese goods. Some of the most valuable
of his china was demolished. A vase
valued at $2500 was ruined. 1t is esti-
mated that damage to the amount of
$500 was done.
