lists, team drivers, molders and help
ers, coremakers, typographers, press
feeders, bakers, leather workers and
the retail clerks turned out the largest
numbers.
Organizations Turn Out.
There were in all fifty unions in line,
and most of them numbered at least
100 members. The parade was divided
into seven divisions, each one headed
by a band.
At the head of the procession came
the team drivers. There were 200 of
them in all, mounted. Of this number
about half were mounted on white
horses.
The unions generally had a uniform
dress of some character. Many of the
unions wore caps of the same style and
color, others wore bright new jump
erS and overalls, while many were at
tired in shirtwaists of bright and pref
ty colors. Canes seemed to be the rule,
as nearly all the men in line who were
not mounted carried light walking
sticks. Each union had a distinct de-
sign of stick, which added to the gem
eral uniform effect of the different or
CARNATIONS.
Altogether the parade was credit
to the organizations that participated
and formed very pretty spectacle
as well as demonstration Of the
strength of the unions in st. Paul.

ed the most attention was that of the
meat cutters union. This union had
mounted on trucks miniature msat

to be dressed and all the tools for per-
forming the work. Even the Gash reg
lister was in evidence and occupied Il
prominent position on the float. None
of the beef was carved, but the small

sages from time to time, to their great
delight and to the amusement of the

The float contributed by the Wait

fact that the walters are at present

turnout, which consisted of a, lunch

the picnickers preferring to bask in the

the island, but this fact did not prevent a

In the point of numbers the carpen-

scented a pretty sight, arrayed in a
uniform garb, the foundation of which
was neat white shirts.

crowded with people, but the crowds
were orderly and good-natured and
gave the police but little to do. The

Ten thousand men in line, over 70

To the parade must be accorded the
honors, for never has there been a

men stretched into the distance until
the estimate of it's length was lost in
the mass of streets over which it
marched and countermarched.

whole, and their music, with the steady

The picnic at Harriet island, the use
sof which was rendered by Health Com
missioner Ohage, began with the break
ing up Of the monster parade, though
It was long before that hour when the
crowds began to gather and take refuge
and seek enjoyment on the grassy
slopes and in the wooded groves.
& With the breaking up of the parade,
however, the bulk of the crowd made
its appearance and for fully three hours
the wooden bridge leading to the island
was a mass of moving heads and shut
fling feet.
At 2 o'clock those in charge estimat-
ed the number at 10000, but an hour
later the ranks Of the strolling, loung-
ing pleasure seekers had increased until
$4,000 was a conservative estimate.
Some of the leaders considered that
10000 was more nearly correct.
No Liquors Are Sold.
Unlike previous years, not drop or
Intoxicating liquors graced the occa-
sion, and though it's absence made quite
a difference in the revenues accruing to
the management by reason of it's sale,
the loss was fully compensated by the
thousands of women and children who
were enabled to attend.
The addresses of the day were con-
tributed by Gov. S. r. Van SAINT, D. w.
Lawler and John J. Leighton. Unless
it was Mr.. Leighton, none of them
spoke at length, a brisk wind was
blowing and the hoarse roar. emanat-

were playing and the young people
dancing so taxing their voices that they
were glad to desist.
Senator Clapp was to have made the
principal address, but owing to a death
in his family he was unable to attend
and D. H. Lawler contributed in his
stead. Mr.. Lawler, in speaking of the
substitution, paid pretty compliment

large crowd for several minutes about 6
Peter street by telling a soldier with real
brass buttons and blue clothes what he
thought of anybody that would try to
drive him off "his corner as he called 1t.
The trouble started when the soldier
and two companions stopped at the cor
ner to wait for Fort Smelling car The
newsboy was busy selling his papers and
asked the soldier if he did not want to
buy one. The result was that the soldier
told the lad to leave the corner and seek
another field.
The boy, however, did not relish the
way in which the soldier spoke to him
and, swinging his boot backing box IN
the air, said:
