hands Of the grand officers heretofore

The fact that the weather Yesterday

UlatiOn. Early in the morning the
weather prophets Of the order were up
scanning the skies and many opinions
we're offered as 10 the chances for the

would fall in the morning was gener-

handsome float and every well drilled
canton was given its full share of ap-
plause.
Washington Cd. c. Canton was given
the place or honor in the line, at the
head of the column, after the police
and general staff. The patriarchs exc
cUted many drill maneuvers on the
march and were cheered repeatedly. All
Of the crack drill corps that took part
in the recent contests at Mechanics

and cheered as they marched steadily

and the countermarch Of the procession

incident occurred at the turning point
OF the parade at Van Ness avenue and

the ladies who participated in the deco

place at the Pavilion Wednesday and
Thursday evenings. The officers of the
Grand EncamDment did not ride with

tenth division. Shields with the names
Of the States and Territories Of the
United States and foreign countries
represented were attached to each car

Ontario and many other of the British
possessions were displayed frequently
with. Of course, the Stars and Stripes.
Many Of the floats We're very elab-

by four horses, was an exceptionally
good feature. The Oriental float at

Immediately following the parade
