derstood. Every employe in line car
ried the usual flag and japanese UNI
brella and no uniform could have pre-
eented a neater appearance than the
white shirts and straw hats which
formed a portion of their costume. The
division was composed Of five sections,
and with each section was one OF the
five hose carts with which the railroad
shops are furnished. The decorator s
art had triumphed over the unattract-
i've carts, and the national colors SO
covered and enveloped them that they
were not only artistic but really beau
tiful Each cart was drawn by forty
firemen, and that of the first section
was surmounted with miniature Lib
erty Bell, done in red, white and blue,
that was attractive and had patri-
otic ring that was in keeping with the
day. The cart of the second section
was surmounted by miniature Of the
battleship Maine, and the other three
were also attractive.
The first section was composed of the
apprentices from the several shops, the
foreman and the men from the black
smith shop and the rolling mill; the
second Of men from car shop and
others; the third of the employees of
the boiler shop, machine shop. copper
foundry, spring shop and brass foun-
dry The fourth section was composed
of men from the car shop foundry,
store and other departments, and the
fifth and last of men from the car
machine shop, cab shop, plating de-
partment, yard and paint shop.
THE THIRD DIVISION
Was composed entirely of school chill
dren, marshaled by City Superintend-
ent o. w. Erlewine, assisted by School
Directors c. A. Elliott and @. G. Per-
kins and the children were, to use an
expression of the street, "all right"
Their uniforms, simple in the extreme,
were natty and appropriate, and the
caps and sashes, alternating red, white
and blue, was a sight good for Amer
lean eyes.
Nearly if not quite 1900 school chill
dren were in line, and most of the
schools were led by their respective
drum corps The marching of the little
people, girls as we'll as boys, was fa-
vorably commented on. The little pa
triots had been we'll drilled, and
showed to good advantage. The divi-
sion was led by the Institute Band.
whose members made a handsome ap-
pearance in their new uniforms.
Every school in the city was repre-
sented. The girls from the Harkness
and Sutter grammar schools were re-
markably proficient in their drill, and
noticeable as to costume. They were
clad entirely in red, and marched in
the formation of a cross-the "Red
Cross"
The children from the Foundlings'
Home were in line, though, as many
were too small to walk they were
given seats in a carriage.
The gallant drum major Of the Union
Primary School caught the fancy of
the crowd, and was really an expert
with the baton.
The pupils of Kinney Dictrict rode
in a nicely decorated vehicle. Those of
San Juan District marched with a
miniature float bearing a representa-
ton of the battleship Maine which was
a skillful piece Of work.
