men and numerous other clubs and
organizations that went on foot added

unquestioned, although some of the ve

Another interesting spectacle was the
Wells-Fargo stage coach, filled with
veterans of the stage coach days. On
the front seat sat C M. Kellogg, wnu
drove a Wells-Fargo stage out of Salt
Lake City -In 1864 and 1865. Now he
lives in Harney County and still rides
on a stage coach when he travels. He
has a contempt for railroad trains.
Thomas H. Reynolds, who has been In
the employ of Wells, Fargo & Co. for
40 years, acted as "shotgun messenger."
He rode on top of the coach, with a
shotgun leveled across his knees. The
regulation strong box stood beside him.
Mr. Reynolds began as a messenger at
Salem and has served in various capa-

cities since then. Now he is a clerk
in the Portland office.
Inside the coach rode F. X. Matthieu,
the beloved Oregon pioneer and sole
surviver of the Champoeg convention.
"It reminds me of old times, riding in
here,'" remarked Mr. Matthieu cheer
fully. Beside Mr. Matthieu sat Alonzo Per
kins, a Mexican War veteran, who has
traveled thousands of miles In stage
:oaches.
Pony Exprflti Typified.
Preceding the coach, which was
drawn by four horses, was a young man
mounted on a pony, typifying the pony
express, which the stage coach super
seded. In the rear came a modern
Wells-Fargo delivery wagon, such as
is used in Portland today.
The old coach is one that the com
pany preserves as a valued relic of the
early days and was brought to Port
land from San Francisco for this occa
sion. T. A. Woods, superintendent for
the company at Oakland, who is a
member of the Royal Oaks drill team,
together with A. E. Muncey, general
agent In Portland, arranged the novel
display.
Following the police band and a squad
of marching policemen rode -H. L. Pit
tock, the grand marshal. His aides
were F. O. Downing, A. L. Barbur, E.
M. Lazarus, C. C. Bradley, W. G. Eaton,
J. E. Rudersdorf, Arnold S. Rothweli
and W. H. Warrens.
Captain Riley, who has had charge
of the work at the police station
throughout the busy week, was out In
command of the officers along the pa
rade lines yesterday. The success of
the parade was due largely to his work
in keeping the crowds from encroaching
over the curb lines.
Indians Applaud Liberally.
The Blackfoot Indians, who are here
from Glacier National Park, viewed the
parade from the curb in front of the
Empress Theater, on Broadway. They
applauded most liberaly when the mail
carriers marched by and laughed more
than once at some of the horseback
riders, whose efforts they must have
considered amateurish.
As the parade passed the Meier &
Frank store on Morrison street rose
petals blown through a pipe were
showered upon the marchers from an
upper window. The street became cov
ered with flowers.
Right of the line in the pageant was
the honor accorded the Knights of the
Tournament of Roses of Pasadena, and

Knight' Uniforms Brilliant.
In the car of F. C. Riggs. of the
Royal Rosarlans. was borne the banner
of the Pasadena organization of knights
and King Drummohd of the Tournament
of Roses, rode in the car, accompanied
by J. H. Pearman and Colonel W. J. Ho

brilliancy to the line which was not
surpassed In any other organization
that was entered.
Thunders of cheering swept along the
crowds marking the progress of the
Pasadena division, while the king and
his peers bowed in gracious recognition
of the popular tribute.
A display of marching evolutions that
called to memory the pageants of the
Elks' Convention last Summer was af
forded by the uniformed teams of the
various organizations which followed
the Pasadena riders.
Royal Oaks at Best.
The Royal Oaks, who have represented
tbe Oakland delegation in nearly every
parade in the Festival, were at their
best in this pageant. Every man in
the white uniformed squad wore a pink
Caroline Testout rose on his left lapel.
Leslie F. Rice is captain of the "Oaks,"
with F. E. Reed and Kenneth MUliken
as his aides. The Oakland boys' band
led the drill team.
Vying with the Royal Oaks In their
graceful marching evolutions were the
Radiators of Eugene, under Captain J.
M. Williams, and the cheers of applause
that greeted the white Oaks' team swept
over and merged Into the applause for
the gray-uniformed Radiators.
Close behind the Radiators marched
Captain Krohn's crack team of Royal
Rosarlans, followed by the "awkward
squad" under the command of C. C.
Chapman.
The Portland Hunt Club mustered a
division of 75 men and women, beauti
fully mounted. Edgar Lazarus headed
the Hunt Club with Chester G. Murphy,
William Walters, Mrs. James A. Crans
ton and Miss Gladys Ross as his aides in
the foremost file.
D. O. Lively, livestock director of the
Panama-Pacific Exposition, rode in a
decorated tally-ho, with Miss Berthine
Mathison, of Portland, Miss Florence
Jacobsen, of San Francisco, and W. H
Crawford, the Portland business repre
sentative of C. C. Moore, president of
the Exposition. This was the entry of

the Exposition and the Portola. The
tally-ho was massed with evergreen
upon which blazed hundreds of bright
California poppies. "William," the offi
cial "1915" trumpeter, rode behind.
The Mall Carriers' section was the
most imposing in point of numbers In
the entire pageant and presented a
beautiful pioture. In advance rode
Postmaster Myers, in a carriage, ac
companied by his little son, the mascot
of the parade, by Assistant Postmaster
Shellenbarger, and J. M. Jones, super
intendent of the mall carriers.
L. C. Auld, in the character of Uncle
Sam, led the marching division. The
Mail Carriers' Band appeared for the
first time in this parade and was hon
ored with applause along the entire
route. O. C. Senger is director of the
band, and W. F. Daugherty captained
the marching division. There were 200
letter carriers in the division, march
ing four abreast. Their mail pouches
were filled with rose blossoms and, as
they passed along, they tossed the
flowers to the crowds along the ropes.
The Women's Band of the Artisans
followed the mail carriers' division and
close after these came the Italian drill
team of the Bresselagrae. Thirty-four
men were in the marching squad, all in
Italian military uniform and wearing
the helmets with their flowing plumes
of dark feathers. The .rtoyal Highland
ers, under Captain Gildersleeve, closed
the division of the parade in which so
cieties and organizations were repre
sented. Symbolic of progresslveness was the
pioneer prairie schooner followed by a
pioneer with old-fashioned gun, powder-horn
and dog, representing the
suburb Lents coming Into the city lim
its of Portland. The family in the old
wagon portrayed a living picture of the
early days, when settlers crossed the
plains by team. This was very par
ticularly appropriate, as Lents will be

The float entered by the Chinese Be
nevolent Association was the most
costly and beautiful creation in the
line. Symbolic of the victory of the
revolutionists and the establishment of
the new republic, a group of Chinese
soldiers stood about a field gun in the
front of the float. A warlike group
it was, the bugler wounded and wear
ing a blood-stained bandage about his
head, but still at his post, and the
Captain of the piece standing with his
sword raised In command. Behind this
group a beautiful Chinese girl typinea
the spirit of victory, with hands up
lifted above an embroidered banner.
Under a pagoda In the rear of the float
stood a soldier and a statesman clasp
ing hands.
Thp whole float was brilliant with
tinsel and color and the flag of the
Chinese Republic was interwoven with
the flag of the United fatates.
Chinese Band Reappears.
The Chinese boys' band, which made
ita first appearance in the parade of
the preceding night, marched in front
of the float, under the leadership of
Director R. C. Beach. An American flag
and a Chinese flag were borne before
the band and in automobiles draped
with the flags of the two nations par
ties of prominent Chinese citizens fol
lowed the float.
In carriages following the float rode
the following prominent Chinese resi

"Oregon Dick," the veteran workhorse
of Fisher, Thorsen & Co., was a distinct
hit. t In spite of his 26 years, he looks
as flrie and as tit as a 7-year-old and
showed just as much mettle. On a
