THE STICK AND THE CRUST.

A stick and a crust Of bread. Like
the hands of a clock these two articles
told the time O. day for nearly a year
in a certain mans life. Yet, unlike
the hands of clock, they were not
visible at once. When he needed the
stick he had no use for the crust; ana
when the crust was welcome he had no
further occasion for the sick.
Albeit he was young fellow OF
twepty-six, you would be wrong In sup
posing this stick to have been In the

HERALDING THE
COMING PAGEANT

II was not long after the scheduled hour
when star bomb went hurting toward
the heavens from the corner of Market
and Van Ness and heralded the approach
of the pageant. Another and another fol-
lowed, and from the tower across the
street the white shaft of a searchlight
swung along the line of the approaching
column. a mighty cheer went up from
the throats of the vast army spread in
black masses along the street, the re-
stratning ropes were forced outward and
the crowd, mad with excitement, started
TO surge into the street. The police, how
ever, were ready and the threats Of
swinging clubs and trampltng hoofs drove
the people back from the line OF
march. There they remained awhile,
but as the column swung into
Market street and started on its
journey TO the ferry a horse. bearing
an aid. fell heavily to the pavement
Fearful that the rider had been seriously
injured the crowd again broke the ropes
and rushed to his rescue. Again the clubs
were brought into play, the crowd driven
horse to rise and away went the pageant
on its mission. When the fed Men round

hilarity. The members Of Althamos Tribe

toward the center OF the street and Ior
some time the police were powerless.
Finally six patrol wagons abreast cleared
the streets and the march proceeded 1t

men stood helpless in the midst of the
moving mass of humanity. 1t was useless
TO attempt to force the crowds back
walks, and all the officers attempted was
to keep the throng in motion. The police
were a weary, anxious-looking lot Of men.
When a patrol wagon drove along ac-
companied by Chief Lees and q force of
men prepared to stretch wire ropes to re-
strain the crowd there was i sign of re-
lief That crowd was the one thing that
worried those who arranged the celebra-
ton. For time the wire rope plan was
effective, but by twos and threes the peo-
pie broke through the lines, and long be-
fore the lights on the patrol wagons, that
peared creeping at snails pace along
was black with people from curb to curb
No one who viewed that throng from the
stand had hopes of witnessing a parade
that night. 1t seemed almost beyond hu-
man possibility TO force passage through
that human barricade.
At the outset the crowd kept on the go.
People hurried and scurried, without
knowing why or whittier. But this
did not last long. AS the crowd grew
in numbers 1t quieted down, and remained
a stationary mass. When the approach
OF the patrol wagons was announced
along the line, those in the rear fell out
and most of the crowd that could not be
accommodated on the sidewalks melted
away into the side streets and alleys II

NATIVE SONS
IN BIG FORCE

Thirty-four parlors of the Native Sons
were in the first part of the parade. This
display Of this order was one Of the finest
that II has ever made in this city. The
members OF many parlors were attired
in uniforms and all wore the regalia of
the order. Every parlor had out its par
ucular banner, and some of the pariors
had novelties. The members of one car
rled a dry battery connected with bell,
and they kept up a constant ringing. Stan
ford Parlor made a pretty display, having
its name worked in flowers on bed Of
moss. California Camp of the Ancient
Order OF ArgOrauts was in line with
transparancies. At the head of the sec
ton there was a carriage in which rode

which horns and whistles lent their aid.
But the attractive feature was the il
Elimination over the street, the lines Of
incandescent lamps stretching away until
they looked like one broad pathway of
gold ending at the lighted tower over the
bay. To the southwest the dome of the
City Hall bedecked in light cast rays of
gold over the surrounding darkness. To
the north loomed up the towers Of the
Native Sons building and Mark Hopkins
Institute of Art, also shedding light in all
directions.
Suddenly from the dome of the Claus
SpreckeIS building, Illuminated in every
window from the street TO the very top,
a white puff of smoke flew, followed by
a sharp resounding report of cannon.
At the same time the rejected glare of
Roman fire away of by the bay at the
end of Van Ness avenue was seen.
The two announced that the procession
had started. At other points along the line
of march the match was applied to the
pans of powder, which cast a ruddy glow
upward and around. Within ten minutes

SETTLING DOWN
TO CAMP LIFE

Ten o'clock was the time set for the
California men to report back TO camp
yesterday morning, and at that hour they
commenced to come in. The two COM
mands were a little late in reporting all
present, but every one reported within an
hour and nothing was said.
The principal object in having the men
all present was to care for their baggage
and be on hand when the customs officers
inspected it. All through the morning the
trucks were arriving, and in the open
space at the end of the tents of the col
onel and the regimental staff the effects
of the regiment were piled high. The
artillerymen's baggage was put over be-
hind Major Rice's tent at the end OF the
artillery battalion street. The baggage
was inspected and passed right there, and
then each man took his effects to his tent.
There was not much done during the
day except TO entertain the visitors who
went out to the Preside. There were
thousands of them and they were all talk
ative, so the camp was lively place.
AS soon as man had attended to his
baggage he was not called on for any
further duty, but was ordered to report
back at o'clock, so the men might have
time to form for the parade. 1t was un-
derstood that after the parade and ban
quet the men would be allowed to seek
their own homes, SO they were notified
they would turn out without arms or
equipments.
The furlough after the parade and ban
QueL Will De uIllll 1U " ClOCh llifS
The men will all report then and will put
the camp in order before noon. Colonel
Duboce and Major Rice expect that a
great many people will visit the camps
this afternoon, and they wish to have the
place looking well.
1t has not been decided what will be al
lowed in the way of liberty to-day and
this evening, but it is certain that to-
morrow morning the business of muster
ing out will be commenced. The muster
ing officers notified the commanding Off
var n
ing until tomorrow. General Skaters
orders were that until the reception was
well over the men should be given full
liberty.
While the men are awaiting the muster
out they will have but little to do besides
getting fat. There will be no drills and
an occasional dress parade is all that will
be expected from them. BY act of Con-
gress their rattons will be materially in
