up of autos and floats of local con-
Germs. the Robinson's circus parade
presented an interesting procession.
Daylight fireworks were set or at
noon. and the ball game and circus
divided the attention and held the IL
terest of the crowd in the afternoJf.
Many were turned away from the Eh-
trance Of the circus at the Afternoon
performance.
The evening display of fireworks
held the crowd until late in the even
ing. The park and the streets for
several blocks on either side of the
court house lawn were packed with
people who wanted to see the evening
display. A demonstration by the Twin
Falls fire department just preceding
the fireworks display, was especially
interesting. A bonfire was set in
'front.' of the court house, and the fire
alarm turned in. The fire depart
ment was on the scene and ready to
turn the water upon the flames in less
han five minutes.
The crowd was orderly during the
entire day and entirely devoid of the
rough house rowdyism which often
accompanies the celebrities of such an
occasion. 1t is said that the absence
of liquor in large quantities Is re-
sponsible for the saneness of the peo-
pie.

The parade in Twin Falls at 10
O'Clock in the morning was one of the
best of its kind ever presented in this
part of the country says the Buhl
Herald. Patriotic floats, competed for
prizes and everyone entered into the
spirit of the occasion. One of the
patriotic floats receiving the most
comment because of its patriotic inn
pressiveness, was the one presented
by the Pleasure Producers. An arts
tically decorated platform was con-
structed on an auto and the imper-
sonatiOn of Abraham Lincoln stood
upon the platform. Kneeling at the
feet Of Lincoln was negro, enslaved
in the bondage of a pair of handouts
The man who impersonated Lincoln
stood above the kneeling form of the
negro with hand outheld in benedic-
ton, and in the other he held the
emancipation proclamation. This float
was awarded second prize. First place
went to the p. E. o., woman's or

u. S. SENDS ANOTHER
NOTE TO GREAT BRITAIN
Washinqton AGAIN Asks the Release Of
SO Germans Seized on Steamer
China.

Washington, April 29.-Secretary
Lansing announced on Thursday that
the United States had sent another
note to Great Britain demanding the
release of the 80 Austrians, Germans
and Turks taken from the American
steamship China by a British cruiser
off Shanghai The note was dispatched
and will be given out for publication
later.
Great Britain contends the men were
engaged in intrigues and plots against
the British government and, having
been discovered were fleeing to Ma
Mia, where they intended to continue
their efforts which would have embar.
raised the neutrality of the United
States.
London, April 29.-The British note
replying to the protest of the Amerl'
can government against interferences
with the neutral trade, which asserts
the right OF Great Britain to regulate
the admission to a neutral country or
goods evidently destined for the en-
envy, caused little surprise IN diplo-
matte and legal circles here, as its
conclusions had been discounted by re
cent decisions of the prize tribunals.
A summary of the views of the mem
bers of these circles may be expressed
as follows:
They do not believe the controversy
will be carried much farther during
the progress of the war as no vital
concessions have been made by either
side since the first note was written
Therefore, the shippers of detained
Cargoes who can afford the delay will
await the conclusion Of the war To
have their cases settled by an inter.
national tribunal in the belief that
such a court will grant them full dam
ages.

Gates
regular army of 100000 men at

600 men in war strength. The bill as
it passed the senate fixed tie peace
strength at 100000 men.
The agreement on the size of the
army is tentative and dependent on
settlement of other features of the bill
still in dispute.
