PARADE ALONG

Line Will Form at
Eleven O'Clock.

The great question for discussion at the
Preside yesterday was the big parade.
It has been decided to form the troops
at the foot of the old parade plain, their
right resting on the bay and the line ex-
tending up toward the volunteers. This
will bring them facing west. The various
commands have been ordered to be ready
to form at II o'clock, and there will be no
delay.
The order requires "undress" uniform
and this phrase has set commanding Off
GERS talking. Just what undress uniform
is is a little uncertain just at present.
1t may mean leggins and campaign hats,
or 1t may mean no leggins and fatigue
caps; or 1t may even allow the dress the
volunteer regiments have been wearing
very much of late-campaign hats, leg
gins, blue trousers, no blouse and a dark
blue shirt, set off sometimes with red
necktie.

fortunate Girls Attempt
on Her Life.

Miss Lizzie Prue, the young Iowa girl
who attempted to commit suicide in the

Wednesday morning, Is now we'll. on the
road to recovery. Wednesday night she
had several attacks of heart failure. but
DR.. Robinson never relaxed his care for

with Miss Prue in the Grand Hotel, re-

of yesterday. She offered to take the un-
fortunate girl to Benicia, but the yellow
journal came on the scene and for ad-
vertising purposes had her removed to
Lanes Hospital.

for Miss Prue, as all she wants is a good
rest. To DIR. Robinson belongs all the
credit Of bringing her back to life. From

Miss Prue and had it not been for his
skill she would undoubtedly have died.
The would-be suicide was in a much
healthier frame Of mind yesterday. She
now wants to live and is sorry she tried

opinion that she was out of her mind
when she took the poison and Miss Prue
says she remembers nothing but an over
desire to die. After spending n
few days in the hospital she is going back
to her home in Waverly, Iowa.
