1t is distasteful to many people to see their names in
public print as indorsers Of proprietary remedies. They
feel a natural aversion to having their ailments published
in the newspapers. At the same time a feeling of human
;ty prompts them now and then to say something that may
lead to such relief Of other sufferers as they have them
selves experienced. This was the case with one Of New
York City's merchant princes, a man who stands at the
head of his particular line of trade. Not long ago he de-
clared that Ripans Tabules were simply admirable" for
that they sweeten the stomach, that they gently move the
bowels, and that they give quick relief from the distress
that accompanies indigestion. This gentleman says that
he will never again allow himself to be without a supply.

Then followed Colonel W. P. Sullivan Jr.,

Following next in order came Brlgader-
General William r. Shafter mounted on
heavy white charger. The general APP
peared for the first time in the uniform of
his new rank. He was accompanied by
the adjntant OF the department. Colonel
J. d. BabcocE, his aids de camp, First
Lieutenant r. H. Noble and First Lieu-
tenant ]. d. Miley, and the members of
his staff. After these came the First Ar

Behind the troop and closing the first

war Heiyei, now In port. There were
eighty of them, not including the officers

a whole looked much better than on occa-
sions when they appeared in service uni
form, and the men would have presen ted
a much more striking appearance had the
ms i1ritV oi the men been attired in uni
form coats that fitted them. The fault
was not with The men, but with the coats
furnished them.
Troop A, First Cavalry, had to appear
in service uniform, for the reason that the
m m bers are not provided with full-dress
uniforms and that fact being taken into
consideration their appearance was very
credltable.
ThA signal corps, Captain Perkins COM
manding, in full uniform and mounted,
were the beau ideal of national guards
men. Their dark blue uniforms with Or
ange trimmings, helmets with orange
plumes, and perfect soldierly bearing,
made them a most conspicuous feature of
the division 10 which they were assigned.
The United States troops were at the
rendezvous before the appointed time,
ready to fall in at the hour announced for
the moving OF the column, and so were
zations but the start was delayed for thir-
teen minutes by the non appearance at the
point OF formation OF the National Guard.
The delay was annoying and brought out
not few unpleasant remarks from those
who were most interested in the moving
of the men.
At a quarter past 10 the advance was
sounded, and the mounted police m owe d
on the north side of the street. half of
Market street being blocked with a line of
cars which had not been checked at Sixth
street, as had been intended. Then fol-
lowed thirty men of Company A, First Di-

partments while On tour OF inspection

tain Spillane, thirty men, these two COM
panies being preceded by the Park band.

Carriages containing the various City

beamed patriarehal smiles at the specta-

The Health Department made good
showing. Mem bers of the Board of Health
in carriages followed the Receiving Hos
pital am bulance, which had been gayly
decorated for the parade. The employees
of the Health Department followed in
uniform commanded bv Chief Food In
spector J. P. Dockerv. The division was
closed by the County Hospital and Aims

The fifth division was commanded by

A. d. Chelgrew, aids. First came the
Austrian band, followed by the Austrian
military company under command of G.

lieutenant; A. Gargare, second lieutenant.
They were followed by civilian members
of the Austrian Benevolent Society, led
by M. Sabadin, president. The gay green
and gray uniforms of the members of the
company, and the glossy black feathers in
their hats made a very conspicuous and
pleasing contrast.
Veterans OF the Mexican War followed
in carriages. Following were those who
turned out to take part: President G.

wore head-dress similcr TO that worn in
the United States navy. On the band
were japanese figures which none OF the
spectators sought TO decipher. taking t for
granted that it meant that the men were
natural born Japs, and that 1t was no
he." The men-who are all small
marched with a peculiar gait, but their
movements were very correct, and tney
too, drew forth many favorable COM
ments; at many points on the line of
march they being cheered by men and
given marks of approval by ladies, who
waved their handkercbiefs at them. The
men were under command of Captain
Uyemura and lieutenants. After them
came two carriages containing the Jap
anese Vice-Consul and officers OF the
cruiser.
The second division had in the advance
Brigadier- General WarfeId, Lieutenant ].
G. Giesting and the mem bers of General
Warfeld's staff. Brigadier General Shat
ter, who was not in command of his brig
ade, allowed his sword, while in line, to
remain in its scabbard, but Brigadier
Warfield, who likewise was not in COM
mand of the brigade as there was no brig
ade out, had his sword drawn while on the
line OF march.
The First Regiment band followed the
Signal Corps and then came the three bat
talions of the First In antry, Second Brig
ade. headed by Colonel j. r. Smith IN
command and accom- panied by his staff.
OF the three majors of battalion Major

only the first named was in the parade.
The several companies in the regiment
made creditable turn out as to numbers.
Company c, Captain Drumbell, having
the largest number in the ranks. Troop
A, Captain jerks, closed this division.
The third division, comprising the First
Regiment of the League of the Cross
Cadets, formed on Front street. They pre-
sented very neat appearance as they
swung into Market street, after the Ma
tional Guard division had passed. The
League of the Cross band. consisting of
forty pieces, headed the division. The
musicians made splendid appearance in
their bright red uniforms. Next came
corps of drummers in dark uniforms.

procession. Promptly at 10 O'Clock the
line started TO move up Market street,
where thousands OF people lined the side
walks, craned out of windows and crowded
upon every available vantage point to
view the great procession. All along the
line of march the boys in blue received an
ovation from cheering multitudes. On
Van Ness avenue the crowd was particu-
larry b ok, and the broad stairway lead
ing up to st. Mary's Cathedral was turned
in to a temporary grand stand for the hun
dreds who congregated there.
The Japs from the Heiyei attracted
much favorable attention, and the unique
display of day fireworks from the float of
tn" California japanese Society drove the
ubiquitous small boy into ecstacies.
Tue fishermen and sons OF fishermen in
their natty sailor costumes gave a salty
favor OF old Father Neptune which was
altogether pleasing to the eye after the
long, stiff columns of the military had
passed.
On the whole the procession was among
the best ever seen in the City, and many
of the Objectionable features OF former
parades were omitted. The prom ptness
with watch Colonel w P. Sullivan Jr.,
the grand marshal, started the parade
was especially appreciated and praised by
the thousands OF spectators who thronged
the line OF march.
The line OF march was as follows:
From the place OF formation, Market, Davis
ana BeGle street; thence up Market TO Mont
gomery, 70 Bush. to Kearny, to Market. TO
Golden Gate avenue, TO Van Ness, south on
Van Ness to Market street, countermarch
north on west side OF Van Ness avenue and
review by Brgadier-Generai Shafter, U. s A,
and the grand marshal st Post street. After
passing the reviewing officers the various
organizations were dismissed.
The military division of the parade was
the feature of the procession, and the ap-
pearance of the regulars from the Preside
and other posts in the vicinity, and the
members OF the National Guard in full
dress uniform was favorably commented
upon by the many onlookers who crowded
the sidewalks along the line Of march. 1t

it was really the fifth was cele-
IN brated in this City yesterd with
as much noisy enthusiasm as
ever. A booming National salute ushered
in beautiful clear day, with only enough
breeze to open the folds of o d Glory.
Thousands watched the parade in the
morning, and the parade was well worth
watching, and thousands shouted and ap-
g., plauded during the literary exercises in
the afternoon. And a good part of the
City's population gathered near the park
in the evening TO witness the magnificent
display OF fireworks which set the very
heavens abaze.
The youngsters performed undisturbed
their patriotic duty OF shooting off fire.

or interfere with firing them, and all over
the City from morn until midnight the
fusillade continued. Young America had
