"Spirit of the Golden West"
Enthusiastically Received
by Many Thousands.
Did you see HT How the knockers
faded awayl There wasn't one left In
Portland last night The parade and
the crowd and the enthusiasm took the
wind out of their sails and the breath
out of their lungs till there wasn't a
thing left for them to do but to get In
with the other 160.000 cheering onea
and hurrah for the Rose Festival.
There were a good many doubting
ones on hand last night waiting for the
first parade of the festival. Thoyhave
been so Used ' to doubting that they
went Just to confirm their ' first Im
pression. -;. They, could hardly got
through the : streets , because of f the
crowds, they couldn't get on a car to
save their lives, and they wondered
why there were so many fools in town.
Then down the street came the van
guard of the parade, : the fireworks and
Roman candles, the Quickening music
of the bands,;, the. gleaming rifles of
the militia and they . began' to thrill
In spite of themselves. Arid , before
three of the '20 handsome floats had
passed , they were yelling themselves
hoarse for Portland and the festival.
"The Spirit of the Golden West" got
hold of the crowds -mm it deserved to,
and from first to last It was a big suc
cess. Everyone who could get down
town came. The streets beaan to fill
up early in the evening and by o'clock
when the parade under the capable lead
ership of Brigadier-General Planer
started from Thirteenth -' and Davis
streets the police and reserves had
their Jiands full keeping the pavement
clear for the passage of the spectacle.
Struts AD. Thronged.
Every office building along the line
of march had its windows and fire
escapes pressed Into service as ex tem

stand Itself on the Pennoyer block fao
lnr Morrison street was packed. The
side streets were crowded with auto
mobiles filled with enthusiasUo sight
seers, and so deep were the crowds on
the sidewalks that three and four tiers
of boxes for spectators to stand upon
were placed before many of the down
town stores. . ' .

of the flambeaux, the red fire torches
and the fireworks gleaming on the pol
ished rifle barrels and the trappings of
the horses and men. the martial music
of the bands, and the joyous spirit of
the carnival seemed to awaken the.
hearts and imagination of the people
and put them in a proper mood for
the floats that followed.
Ploats Wanly Applauded,
An early days' stagecoach, with ' a
guard of cowboys In regulation cos
tume Increased the enthusiasm. Next
came the first of the floats showing
Sacajawea. the Indian maiden, escorted
by a large band of Indians, standing on
a mountain top pointing the way over
the valleys and forests to the Pacific
ocean. Then followed the Louisiana
Purchase float, showing a room in the
palace of Napoleon, the ambassadors of
France and of the United States, with
the treatv on tha table between them.
ready for signature. A large number
of pages and court attendants in the
costumes of the first decade of the last
century were shown on the noat, wnion

like all the others, drawn by six capari
soned horses, each with its cowled rider.
Following the treaty float and carry
ing out the historical sequence of the
history of the northwest came the early
settlers' float, showing a number of
Indians, with two tvrpoes and stuffed
cougars, bear and other animals of the
northwest. The coming of the White
man showed a band of pioneers engaged
in clearing away the forest, building a
little log cabin and clearing a home In
the wilderness,
Portland's First eeidenee,
The first float of the second di
vision, which was under command of
Captain T. T. Strain, showed the orig
inal Portland home a lor hut. the first
building erected on the site of Portland.
Then came a float showing Father Mo
Loughlin, ascending the Columbia In a
canoe with a number of Indians ss his
guides.' The completing of Oregon's
civilisation was typiriea or two rose
floats one showing the children plant
ng the bushes in an elaborate garden
and the other a huge red rose an espe

in the heart of the flower. .
"Division three of the parade under

: Hood. River's" cornucopia, the horn' of
plenty, pouring forth -a golden store of
fruits and grains and farm products,
was perhaps the most elaborate float In
the parade.' It was presided over by a
queen of the festival. Astoria showed
two huge sea serpents holding the key
to the Columbia In their laws, and a
mlnlatu; yacht entering the Columbia
river. The - -King of the Columbia"
float showed an enormous salmon, and
attracted .much admiration. .. . , -w

The rear float was that of Seattle,
and showed the proposed Oregon state
building at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
exposition. The float called forth a
great deal of applause at every point
on the line of march.
All th. floats were well constructed.
and were undoubtedly the handsomest
ones or their kind ever seen on tne ra
clflo coast They were each drawn by
six horses and were Illuminated by
flambeaux and torches carried by cos
tumed guards and by cadets from the
Hill Military academy.
Crowds Stay TTp tate.

Saxons Can Join Masons.
. Dresden, June 8. For ft years Sax
onya army officers. Irrespective of
creed, have been forbidden on pain of
dismissal to JoOi the Masons. That pro
hibition has been revoked by the king,
a fact which occasions much comment,
because Frederick is a stout Catholic
and the church's ban , against Masons
nas never neen revoxea. .
- The Expert Shoemaker.
The expert shoemaker, is In his way
a tort of Sherlock Holmes. He can tell
by looking at a customer's shoes some
thing' about where the customer lives,
and this not by mud on the shoes or the
absence ofvlt, or any such commonplace
evidence aa that, but by the manner in
which the shoes show wear. But he is
not Infallible. -.
Here, for Instance, la a woman who
wears the soles of her shoes very thin
up at their forward end. at their very
tips, there, at the toe; and to her:
"Tou live in the country," says the
shoe expert
"No." says tha .woman, "I live in the
city. Why did you think I lived In
the countryf
"Because your shoes are worn so at
the toea. I thought you walked on ma
cadam roads."
So here the expert slipped, misled In
this case by not making due allowance
for a habit of these shoes' wearer; but
usually he can tell. . - -
