Ildigestion is often taken for con-
sumption. The word consumption
means wasting away, and dyspeptics
often waste away as badly as con-
sumptives.
The reason people waste away is
because they either don't get enough
to eat. or they don't digest what
they do eat.

CHANGE THE ROUTES.
Funeral Professions Through Narrow
Business Streets Should be
Tabooed.

In conversation with Light re-
porter recently regfiarding the passage
of the ordinance tabooing advertising
signs being carried about the city on
wagons or by other carriers, Capt.
Shardein, city marshal, expressed him
self as being also in favor of placing
only certain of our widest streets at
the disposal of funeral directors
through which to lead funeral process
sions.
The suggestion is a good one and
cannot but meet with the approval of
every citizen, especially of those who
ride on a drive or walk across our
narrow business streets, in buggies,
carriages, on street cars or bicycles,
and are compelled by ordinance to
stop until a long funeral procession
goes by, on its way to the cemetery.
Often times these professions need
not come through the business portion
of the city at all, where services are
held at some suburban church and
none need ever come through Com
merce street, from Soledad to Alamo
streets at least.

Columbus boy.
Appropriately Celebrated By The
United Italians.
Street Parade Through Our Princi-
pal Avenues, With Columbus And
Queen Isabella In The Line.

The celebration of the 405th anniver-
sary of the discovery of America by
Columbus was auspiciously opened
yesterday afternoon by the United
Italian Columbus club of the city with
a street pageant through the princi-
pal streets, headed by Mounted officers
| Brown and a brass band.
The procession formed on Washing
ton square and began the march at
o'clock, in the following order:
Mounted police, grand marshal, Pietro
Bruno, and aides, F. Pizzini, G. Bar
celona; band, ship representing Column
bus first voyage, Veteran Garabal-
dian Bartholomeo 0briotti and family,
carriages representing Queen Isabel
and maids of honor, society Morelos,
Society Hidalgo, Society Christopher
Columbus, invited societies, carriages
containing city and county officers,
carriages containing press, orators and
general committee.
Acting Mayor Ronse, City Clerk Vim
Ike. Alderman Denny, Recorder Lewis,
Auditor Vinck and Collector Max SUI
tor represented the city. President
Macaluso occupied a seat in the may
or's carriage which was drawn by four
black horses. The press was repre-
sented by a Light representative.
The, county was represented by
County Judge Jonas, Commissioners
Salliway and Guerguin, County clerk
Thad Smith, Collector Cassiano and
Assessor HUH.
The procession moved from the
err
Military plaza and Main plaza, again
through Commerce street to Alamo
plaza, thence through Houston street,
Main and San Pedro avenues to San
Pedro park, where a salvo of q guns
(petards) announced the beginning of
the celebration.
The landing of Columbus took place
at the steps of the rOstrum in the low
er grove and he was received by Queen
Isabella, Miss Marie Borell, and maids
Misses Saladino, Sara Barcelona and
Louise Fornasini) The stage made
pretty picture of the old time court
scene with the queen, the sailors, Co
lumbus, and the Garibaldians dressed
in gay costume, and the officers of the
society, the orators and invited guests
grouped about.
After paying court to the queen Co.
Iumbus, (Mr. Pietro De Gorna) an
nOunced that the formal opening OF
the festivities would take place at 1870
o'clock with the speeches and then
procession was formed to the upper
hall where Queen Isabella received Co
lumbus' report of his voyage and con-
graduated him and his sailors.
At 1880 o'clock the speaking COM
menced and the following contributed
addresses: MIR. Salvatore F. Bum
balo, in Italian; Mr.. James Routledge,
in English and Sig. NJ. G. Dena, in
Spanish. The dancing began at $3.50
o'clock in both upper and lower halls
and continued until 1870 this morning.
| The celebration continues today and
| tomorrow.
The field marshal for the day was
Mr.. NJ. Volino, aids, David ECcel, Pr
fari Cannata.
A great deal of disappointment was
expressed by the arrangement COM
mittee because the fire department
was not in the parade, although invit-
ed by the committee to participate.
There was a mistake somewhere.
