ond Infantry Band, which rendered ma
tional airs with all the snap and vigor
possible. Following the band marched
! Company G, of the Second Infantry,
Captain John Zitfinger commanding.
and while many of the boys were some
what sore to thing their excellent or
ganization had been passed over in
| the several calls for troops, they
I marched with the easy confidence Of
seasoned soldiers. and received the gen.
erous plaudits of the people.
! Following the soldier boys came Sum-
ner and Warren Posts, Grand Army of
| the Republic, under command of Col
| onel Kellogg. and the old veterans
| marched and bore their banners as
! proudly as in the stirring days of '61-
| 90, though the forms of many We're
| less erect than in their warrior days
and their steps less elastic.
Then in line came the uniformed
and dununiformedr ranks of the knights of
Pythias marshalled by S. Katzenstein,
numbering seventy-five men. They
made very imposing appearance and
received many compliments.
4 Following them marched the Ber-
sagleri Guard, commanded by Captain
| a. Sbarbaro, whose unique uniforms
added charm and variety to the pa
rade. With the guard marched num-
/ ber of Italian citizens
| 1t might here be remarked that every
/
marched in the parade, carried at least
one American flag, showing that but
one feeling existed. and that all were
Americans to the core. The flags We're
furnished by the Celebration Commit
tee, and were distributed yesterday
morning.
Sacramento Lodge of Elks marched
behind two large banners and was
nearly a hundred strong The Elks
covered themselves with glory (and
perspiration), and allowed their pa
triotism to overflow at every step.
Following came a number of socie-
ties, among which We're the members of
the Bakers Union, dressed out in
aprons and caps, fifty strong Then
came a pretty float, labeled IN. b. E.

by an excellent reproduction of Uncle
Sam" next commanded attention. and
q drum corps enlivened the paraders.
! The Sacramento Turn Verein and the
Helvetia Turn-Verein came i'm for a
large share of applause, and then came
section which would be mistaken no.
where within the confines of the State
1t was composed of the two local par
lors of Native Sons of the Golden
West, and they made the welkin ring
with their outspoken enthusiasm.
A feature of the parade was the
United States letter carriers of this
city, marshaled by Postmaster Fox in
person, and their modest uniforms of
sober gray contrasted strongly with
the flash and glitter that surrounded
them.
The Independent Order of Odd Fell
lows Lodges, as we'll as those of the
Improved Order of Red Men, turned
out large delegations, and the Caleio-
MAN 1lup, With hite, plaiu ana tartan,

Young Mems Institute Councils and
the Foresters each had large delega-
tions in line. and with them passed the
First Division.
SECOND DIVISION.
The Second Division was composed
entirely of sections from the railroad
shops and was marshaled by Master
Mechanic T. w. Heintzelman assisted
by j. G. Camp and thirty-two aids.
The division was led by a band and a
more than life-sized extra edition Of
Uncle Sam: and when 1t is known that
more than 1900 men We're in line the
magnitude of this division will be un-
