Representatives from lei Paso a
Feature OF the Elks' Gathering.
One Of the notable features OF the
gathering Of Elks Is the Quien Sabe
club including representatives from FL
Paso, Tex, Arizona and New Mexico.
The clubmen are nearly 100 strong and
wear pink "Charro' suits of finest elk
skin, trimmed In braid Of gold and sill
yer.
No caballero IN Manana land ever
wore richer costume than one of these.
I'll captain of the club wears an outfit
which cost $1,000, and rides saddle
Of Mexican workmanship OF almost
solid silver, which cost $1,000. In their
special cars the EllIs have four bar
rlles' Of Mexican Ellks' milk and eight
"barriles" Of Mexican Elks' tea. which
were dispensed to thirsty Elks along
the route especially at Denver and
Colorado Springs
At their headquarters In Salt Lake
they are serving visitors tequila punch
made IN Mexican "cazuela" and stir
red with the original prayer stickwhlch
Montezuma carried with him on the
journey from Pacos pueblo in northern
New Mexico 10 the now capital city Of
the republic. This seductive potatlon
Ia being handed around In the mugs
of Mexican make. Four bales Of Chill
pepper and all kinds of concomitants
are carried and their ''mozo" is making
quantities OF chilli to serve visitors.
Tortillas and ahucate salads are also
being served with the lunches
George ogden of III Paso Is the cap
tain of the club and Thomas N. Wilkln-
son. past exalted ruler OF the Albu-
querque lodge, Is one of the delegates.
The pride Of the company Is Sheriff
Thomas S. Hubbell of Bernallllo coun-
ty. N. NJ, whose other name Is Como
Estamos, Sheriff Hubbell leads the
club. wearing vaquero costume and
on fine horse,
1t was suspected that this club was
the successor Of the once famous Nc
Ginty club Of FL Paso, but now de-
ceased The soft impeachment, how
ever, is denied. The Texas contingent
failed to bring "Reck" along with
them much 70 the regret Of the Salt
Lake friends Of Col. Reckhart who for
merly lived In this city and was noted
as an athlete.

Redolcnt Of the old days on the
plains, breathing the atmosphere Of ac-
tlon and stirring courage, Buffalo Bill 8
parade went up and down the principal
streets of salt Lake at about o'clock
this morning and elected the admlra-
ton of thousands Of spectators. 1t
made a hit not only because IT was an
inspiring spectacle In itself, but be-
cause nearly everyone who saw it
realized that It was the greatest thing
the world ever produced IN that line,
and that that world-renowned old
plaipsman Col w. f. Cody was at its
head and It's sponsor.
There was something different in
Buffalo Bill's parade. Ii was not like
other pageants that have drawn the
thousands 10 the curb to gasp and
wonder 1T was not a pageant at all.
m iact, because II made no EFFORT or
pretentions TO gorgcousness or luxury.
IL was real, and therein lay It's charm.
Everything In Col Codys parade,
ike everything in his SHOW. Is exactly
what 1t pretends to be- lie has gath
'red around him Vaqueros from Next
70, and they are real VaQueros. his
Sioux Indians are real Sioux his rough
riders were all In the Cuban war, and
each has his discharge papers. SO it
goes through all the show, and all the
parade.
In the procession this morning were
representatives of the Sioux. BlackfCet,
Arapahoe, Cheyenne and other tribes,
all mounted on Indian cayuses and
wearing the paint and feathers Of war.
There were Gauchos from South
America, cowboys from Nebraska,
Wyoming, Montana, New Mexico, Tex
as, Colorado and the Dakotas which
were interesting because Of their ia
miiarty and because Of the fact that
they depict a troublesome period now
happily passed from the history Of the
country
But Buffalo Bnrs show. as seen by
his parade, is not altogether wild
West" show. Representatives from the
orient were In the parade this morning
In great numbers, and the very best
thing about II was that each one OF the
men was what he was represented TO
be. Wild Arabs from the desert, mount.
ed on their famous horses, German I'm
perial Cuirrassiers. Irish Lancers--
these were all In the parade, and 1t was
an education to see them.
The music was furnished by three
bands, one Of them mounted and being
a real cowboy band of real cowboys.
The music furnished would not have
drawn down the Elks $1,000 prize at
Liberty park, but II was good ana
brassy and blatant and served its pur.
pose,
There were thousands Of people on the
streets this morning. Such a vast
crowd never swarmed over Salt Lakes
business section before--at least not
within the memory OF the Oldest inhabi-
tant Most Of the people had come
down early in order to kill two birds
with one stone-to zee two great par
AIDES on the same morning. This is an
epoch In Salt Lakes history,
And many Of them went on down TO
the grounds this afternoon 10 take in

on every hand expressions Of COM
mendation were heard regarding the
parade. 1t was not a gorgeous page
ant. and there was only one specially
constructed noat-that Of the Seattle
lodge-but ii was a long line Of nattily,
and, In some plates, grotesquely dressed
Elks, and 1t caught the public fancy.
AS 10 the weather Salt Lakes own
residents don't know exactly how to
take It, It Is very peculiar weather.
In fact, It is most surprising weather,
and II has surprised the man most who
came down town without an umbrella,
thinking that the fair blue OF clear
sky meant good weather. 1t used to,
but you can't tell now.
