The fourth and greatest eruption of steam and smoke from the new opening near the peak of Mount Lassen at the foot of the Shasta range occurred late today. The smoke, .column, .reached an estimated height of 2500 feet. The first spurt of smoke was seen at 3:15 P. M; A great column rose above the. snow of the mountain top and semed ' to stand in the sty for half an hour. It gradually subsided, but was followed by puffs and jets at intervals as long as the watchers were able to see the outline of the mountain against the sky. The first outbreak at Lassen occurred May 30, and broke a hole In the side of the mountain near the peak.

Great Crowd la Convinced. So a great part of the crowd was skeptical last night; that Is, before the parade. After the parade It went home convinced. There was less of the real flashy ma terial on last night's floats, but, on tho whole. It is probable that they could be called more artistic They were sim pler tnan those of former veara but- equally Impressive. One thing that aiDealed to th.

CABINET LASTS ONE -DAY New French Government Defeated ln First Issue Before Deputies. PARIS, June 12. The new French Cabinet, of which Senator Rlbot is Premier, was defeated today In the first division taken in the new Chamber of Deputies by a vote of S06 to 262. The Premier had asked for a vote of con fidence. The Premier immediately resigned. An inspiration to patriotism, a lei- son in Industry and an appeal for so cial happiness were contained in the parade at noon yesterday that marked the climax of Rose Festival activities. The great military section, represent ing all arms of service op land and sea, could not fall to arouse a feeling of enthusiasm, confidence and loyalty for the state and Nation ln the hearts of the thousands who watched the pro cession as it passed for three full hours through the city's principal business streets. All Oregon Activities Glorified. The industrial sections combined to glorify, in Impressive review, all the dynamic activities against which the energies of Oregon's sons are directed. The fraternal section, in contrast with the others, depicted the peaceful element of society. It represented fra ternal brotherhood, art, literature, music and all elements of human en deavor that niak,e for social happiness. Neither was the spectacle without its humorous side. There were many comi cal and entertaining features. It was entertaining as well as instructive. It surely was splendid!" exclaimed Queen Thelma after seeing it pass in review. Pageant Four Mllea Long. A score of hands and numerous other. musical companies, whole regiments of military bodies, hundreds of commer cial and Industrial exhibits and a long line of civic, fraternal and social ag gregations, together with dozen after dozen of attractively decorated floats, formed the four-mile column of pageantry. A light rain fell for a period of 10 minutes Just as the procession was ready to move, but did not affect the participants nor diminish the size or enthusiasm of the crowd. Again, while the pageant was at its height, a shower started, but was checked before it did any damage. No one budged from position. The marchers kept right on marching and the watch ers kept right on watching. It would have takena a mighty hard downpour to drive the paradera to shelter and a still harder one to force the spectators to cover. At any rate, the light rain was better than would have been a clear sky with plenty of strong . sunshine. SIOOO Prises Are Awarded, More than 11000 was distributed by the Festival Association ln cash prizes. Competition in nearly every depart ment was keen. The prize of $200 for uniformed fra ternal organizations was awarded to the Woodmen of the World for having the largest number of uniformed mem bers In line. The prize of $50 for the greatest number of any Individual camp, lodge or court, uniformed, went to the Span ish War Veterans. The Transportation Club won the prise of $150 for the most artistic float. Regarding tho prize for the civic or fraternal organization having the greatest number uniformly dressed in line a contest has arisen between the Transportation CUib and the Loyal Or der of Moose. This dispute wit be adjudicated this morning at 10 o'clock at 640 Morgan building, when J. IS. Werlein and others will represent thu Transportation Club and representa tives of the Moose will be heard. The hearing will be conducted by Charles MacDonald, John B. Coffey and Colonel James Jackson, the Judges. The prize of $50 for the most unique uniformed body went to the Clan Macleay. v The Transportation Club's showing was an excellent one, as all who saw it agreed. The series of floats provid ed a true representation of the progress of rail and steamship transportation from the earliest period of Oregon's development until the present time. The club had 421 men ln uniform. Several scores more of transportation men rode on their floats. Officials Decline Their Priaea. Among the participants awarded prizes by the judges were the Union Meat Company, which won second for the most artistic advertising float, and the Packard Auto Company, which took first prize for the most unique ad vertising float. Both these awards were declined, however, as C C. Colt, president of the Festival Association, is president of the Union Meat Com pany, and F. C. Riggs. a governor of the association, is manager for the Packard Auto Company. On account of their connections with the Festival. Mr. Colt and Mr. Riggs did not want to compete for prizes. The awards tnen were readjusted to meet this condition. Modesty will prevent any comment on the award for the most grotesque He had held office but one day. tCoouuuod ca Page 7.) r-l
