by close proximity to the men, The division was headed by Marshal D. A. Ryan, with George B. May, Miss Lu- cinda Hernandez and R. F. Doolan aids. Following the Marine band rode the grand officers Native Daughters of the Golden West in carriages and then marched Buena Vista Parlor, headed by it's drill corps-sixteen young ladies dressed in blue suits trimmed with white braid, blue caps and white collars, set off with red ties. The girls carried miniature muskets, which they handled with the precision of veterans. They presented handsome appearance and were the recipients of continued applause.
 Minerva and San Jose parlors fol- lowed in order, their members attired in white from shoes to hats, and most entrancing they looked. La Estrella, with its star of peace, closed the divi- sion.
 Marshal J. S. Williams and his aids, G. E. de Golia and T. w. Hobson, led the third division, followed by Pied mont Band and Piedmont parlors, Ma tive Sons and Daughters. Exceeding ly handsome Oakland Sons and Daugh- ters looked dressed in white and marching together, the gorgeous ban ner of No. 120 mounted on wheels at their head.
 The splendid band of the Fifty-first Iowa Volunteer Infantry escorted Pa cific Parlor Native Sons, and Orc Fino, Native Daughters, who marched to- gether in column of fours. The ladies were all in white. and the yachting suits of the men were tastefully trimmed with yellow silk sashes.
 The band of the Twentieth Kansas Regiment discoursed music for Golden Gate Parlor, which turned out with full ranks, the members wearing the regalia of the order and carrying par asols, Mission Parlor, in regalia, with its banner at the head of the line. San Francisco Parlor'S drum corps in hand some uniforms and San Francisco Par Tor acted as escort to the Pioneers of San Jose, who filled six carriages. Fol lowing these rode Mayor c. J. Martin of San Jose and Mayor James D. Phe- Ian of San Francisco in an open ba- rouche, while behind them rode the City Council and the Board of Super visors.
 Vendome Parlor, Native Daughters, thirty of the Garden City's /loveliest buds, clustered in a six-horse coach, brought up the rear of this division. And right here 1t is in place to say that those girls are just as courageous as they are pretty. Their hateful old marshal sought to shame them into walking with their sisters by calling them tender feet" and other things. but they just didn't care. It was fearfully warm, the line of march long, a reception of several hours duration was to follow the parade and the ball at night would be a still further tax upon their strength. They paid for their carriage and they'd just bet the other girls would wish they were rid ing, too, before the parade was over. The marshal eXpostulated, the girls were determined and the boys in the Ivy nf I1n 1ty-nx ola +1..o girls. Needless to add, they had their own way-women always do-and no fairer feature was seen to-day than that bevy of girls in white, laughing and chattering as they rode along looking extraordinarily cool and com- fortable.
 Oakland and Stanford parlors, es- corted by Blanchard's band, marched together at the head of the fourth di- vision, which was marshaled by T. A. K. Fassett, assisted by w. E. O'Con- nor and Milton Besser. Both parlors looked exceedingly handsome in their white uniforms, as did Alameda par lors, Sons and Daughters, that fol- lowed. Athens Parlor was dressed in white, with straw hats and parasols.
 Behind the Alamedans and Oakland CTS marched Fl Dorado Parlor escort ing the ladies of Orinda Parlor. The girls, all in white, and the boys In white trousers and black coats, presented one of the prettiest pictures of the day.
 Mp1pt Tamalpais Parlor, of San Ra- faeN1ts members jaunty in showy white uniforms and having its own band, closed this division.
 Marshal T. A. Lane and Aids Frank H. Mills and J. E. Hancock rode at the head of the fifth division. Rincon band and parlor in handsome white uniforms marching at the head Yerba Buena po I'll md Not Do r1n corps all showily clad and cordially received, came next.

Bay City, Mantle and Eden parlors brought up the rear of the division.
 The sixth division, led by Marshal John P. Donovan and Aids L. P. Pow olson and w. F. James, contained many novel and attractive features. First there was the Salinas band escorting Santa Lucia Parlor of that city, one of the finest looking corps in the entire line. Following them were the Colum bian and Hesperian parlors, many in numbers and quite as attractive as the others. Los Lomas Parlor, Native Daughters, attracted much admiration as they marched along in front of the Redwood City Parlor and band AL CdlTdZ ana f1dlcyOn paTlOrS were the last of the division in line.
