Merchants decided to keep their
places of business closed. Mayor
Carson declared that the city hall
should cease business for the DAY
and called upon the people to join I'm
huge parade at 1870 o'clock Mon
day afternoon. Thousands answered
the mayors call and gathered in
front of the court house at the ap-
pointed hour. The parade, which
was the largest held in South Bend.
marched through the principal
streets OF the city. II is estimate /
that there were at least so, 900
men, women and children in the
line of march.
Every conceivable contrivance for
making a noise was brought out
and used. Wildly waving thou
sands sang the star Spangled
Banner" and other patriotic airs.
During the early hours of the
morning each of the many process
sions would stop at each corner and
the band would play the national
air, and the crowds would sing.
Dance at Hotel.
Nobody wanted 10 go home. Some
gathered at the Oliver hotel at
noon and danced in the hotel lob
by. A hurriedly summoned orches-
ira furnished the music.
Everybody carried a flag. and
everybody blew a horn or whistle.
Thousands Of automobile horns
joined with the factory whistles and
church bells I'm creating the biggest
and most prolonged noise ever
heard in south Bend.
Later In the morning, more
parades were held. County officials
carrying the huge service flag that
hangs in the court house represent
ing the $500 St Joseph county
boys who are in the service. led one
big parade in which were represent
ed thousands of factory workers,
men and women.

Thirty thousand shallow wicker bas-

this is great consideration when the

Never in the history OF the country
were there more well paid cons
in the North, with more people in bet

before. Wage earners in countless
numbers, who heretofore have been
accustomed to regard anything but
absolute necessities as being in the
luxury class are now having daily

garded as holiday tit-bits.
THE clear cut indication is that
there will be no surplus of Florida
citrus fruits, regardless CT the abun-
dance. The West Indies crop will be
out of it on account of the scarcity of
ships, and that is seen in the fact

vile tobacco market, one of the larg-
est in the world, will begin the 1888
season Thursday, Aug. Is, with the
prospect of breaking all previous rec
ords. The increasing world shortage
in tobacco and the fact that the man
ufactured article has come to be a
regular ration for the American
troops in the field lead dealers to be-
lieve that the prices of last year will
be eclipsed.
Knowing the demand for tobacco
planters are culling each leaf care

at the base of the stalk which in years
gone by were frequently left on the
field, are being picked one by one and
saved.

Adoo that the period of government control

the Senate Committee Interstate Com
merce on January 2 to explain why he thinks

tending the period of control. From what
he has already said it is evident that he
