MANY VICTIMS
CROSS HOT SANDS
Thirteen Hundred shrIners Make
Merry at Fiesta Park-Thlngs
Doing Later at Levy's
Cafe

The largest class Of neophytes ever
taught the mysteries Of Shrinedom was
taken across the hot sands last night
at Fiesta park by the Arab patrol OF
Ell Malaikah temple. The exact num-
ber of victims was 2s6 and the ghoul-
ish Arabs Of the patrol worked all
manner of tortures on the unfortunates.
1t was called circus and so 1t was,
except for the candidates. For them
it was the inquisition and they were
the victims. Camels from Venice added
to the gayety of the brilliant scene.
Water wagons carried small loads, for
initiation night Is the last occasion IN
the world when a Shriner wishes to be
numbered among the absternfous.
Shrill cries of peanut vendors echoed
through the park. Balloon sellers cried
their gaudy wares and the red lemon
ade stands were swamped with custom,
for verify there was stick therein.
After the unfortunates had been tor
tured to the satisfaction Of the Arab
patrol, HOO of the Shriners Of the city
and the band of initiates proceeded
to Levy's, where they all ate, drank
and made merry. @
Among the prominent men of the city
who witnessed the pains Of the
neophytes were w. J. Washburn, j.

If anything is wanted at Long Beach
when the Shriners reach there the
committee having their entertainment
in charge desires to have all kicks reg
istered and there will be things doing
for the one at fault in permitting such
a kick.
Not only will the auditorium be dec
GRATED, but the streets will be bowers
of beauty and gardens of pleasure.
This has been arranged, by the COM
mittee and if Shriner goes away
without giving the glad hand in appre-
citation of the entertainment presented
it will be about time for him to seek
another cline. For instance, the streets
are to be lavishly decorated in honor
of the visitors, and should present a
brilliant scene.
Three hundred and fifty Fez scimetar
flags on staffs will be used, together
with fifty large red and white camel
flags and numerous strings consisting
each of five emblematic flags.
The auditorium will be particularly
gorgeous, the lower part of which will
be enclosed with canvas, thereby Sc
curing privacy, while the upper part
will be open and used for a ball room.
In decorating the dome alone more
than 1000 yards of white and orange
bunting will be used, nearly as much
on top of the gallery and 1900 yards on
the base. On the bandstand there will
be 300 yards used. No effort will be
spared to produce an exceedingly ar
tistic effect.
One unique effect of these decorations
will be a separate flag for each Shrine
in North and South America, number
ing upward of 1000, and each flag will
bear the name of the Shrine, likewise
