Whole Blocks to be Made a Bower of
White, Red and Yellow.


Mrs. c. S. Sutton proposes the dec
Grafton of the streets during the Fall
Festival in such a manner that it viii
give the city a gala appearance
The plan is to string wires across all
of the principal paved streets with the
exception of Kansas avenue, about Il
CT Is to each block, and on these wires
hang a continuous line Of small half
diamond shaped streamers similar to
the streamers used in the decoration
of Hamilton hall for the Pure Food ex-
position. Instead of running the wires
across Kansas avenue it is proposed to
stretch two wires, two and half feet
apart, on both sides of the avenue from
Tenth to First street, and on these
wires run strips of bunting two feet in
width, the half diamond effect also be-
ing carried out in the avenue decOra-
ton by gathering the pieces of bunting
alternately at the top and bottom wire
All of the bunting used would of course
be in the festival colors, red, white and
yellow.
The streets proposed to be decorated
aside from Kansas avenue are Quincy
street, Jackson street, HARRISON street,
Topeka avenue, West Sixth street from
Kansas avenue to the end of the pave
, ment, East Sixth street from Kansas
avenue to the west end of the viaduct,
Fifth street from the Santa Fe depot
to Topeka avenue, Eighth street from
Quincy to Topeka avenue, Ninth street
from Quincy street to the capitol
grounds and from the capitol grounds
street from Quincy street to Tyler
street.
The cost of putting up these decora-
tions has not yet been determined, but
it will be little more than a dollar from
each resident 1t is Mrs. SuttOn's idea
to collect from the business men and
residents in each block to pay for the
decorations of the respective blocks.

Guards at Fall Festival Assured.
The presence of the Kansas national
guard and regular army troops at the
FAN Festival is now assured. Adju-
tant General Hiram Allen. acting IN
der orders from the commander-in-
chief of the guard, Governor Leedy. has
issued a general order or permission to
the various companies in the guard to
participate in the Fall Festival
The expenses of the encampment will
be paid by the Committee of Fifteen.
The troops will go into camp at the
fair grounds, as they did last year
while the regular army camp will likely
be in the same place as it was last
year.
The regular army is required by the
regulations to attend encampments of
the national guard, instruct the mem
bers of the latter organization in drill
and camp life. This arrangement NOT
only gives the members of the militia.
an opportunity to enjoy an outing and
participate in the Fall Festival. but also
affords them the privilege of securing
practical knowledge of the Camp life
and duties of a soldier.
The assignment OF regular troops for
the encampment will now be awaited
with great interest. The presence of
the militia will bring over 1000 men to
the city.
