Parade IN the Morning.
During the morning hours the pa
rade of covered wagons and of men on
horseback formed on the south side of
the park, and Just prior to the begin
ming Of the programme the column
marched north on the west side of the
park, and turned In and established a
The parade was led by four mounted
policemen, who were followed by others
on horseback and numerous convey
ances, the covered wagons bringing up
the rear and turning in to form the
camp. The wagons, initiating n train
of emlgrants, formed n circle, and the
occupants unhitched the teams and
made for themselves temporary prai"
RE home.
4 feature of the wagon part of the
parade was that the vehicles were lit
orally loaded down with children.
There were nearly eighty wagons in
the train, and it was estimated that
the wagons averaged at least a dozen
children each, so that there was not
far from 1000 children who took part
In and enjoyed tho parade.
The parade and the formation of the
camp was looked after chiefly by A.
Milton Musser, Hugh Folsom, John NJ.

Lack of Originality in Rigs.
There was lack of originality in
the rigs as TO numbers as compared
with the parades OF recent years, but
some OF the makc-ups were decidedly
original. The outfit that attracted most
attention was one-horse wagon driven
by George 3. Margetts. 1t was COW
cred with canvas and over the canvas
was bear skin. Attached to the rear
cover Of the wagon there protruded a
stovepipe- On the sides were tubs,
buckets, alfalfa and sagebrush. Econ.
omy of space was equally well observed
inside, for there were six occupants.
One of them was John Mcdonald, The
veteran candymaker of Salt Lake, who
manipulated violin to tho tune of the
" Arkansas. Traveller" Others in the
wagon besides the two named were
John Margetts, Ethel Margetts, Ame-
liza Margetts and Alice Stewart, all Of
whom were attired in keeping with the
spirit of the representations, and in a
manner to attract attention. Two boys
were in line with dog attached to n
wagon. They attracted a fair share OF
attention.
Sham Battle Had.

had enjoyed camp life for an hour or
more, the sham battle, which was not
entirely misnomer, occurred between
