In the big parade Tuesday there was no float more artistic and attractive, and which received more attention and praise than the Cottage Grove float, a monster affair mounted on trucks and very cleverly designed. It had a great canopy top sup|>orted by four mass ive columns, one at each corner o f the car. In the center and under the canopy was a monster big red apple upon the side of which was inscribed, "Cottage Grove, Nes mith county and a Greater Ore g on .” The other decorations on the float were very appropriate aud artistic, including a great floral heart. Seated on the car was Mrs. Alta King and little son, Mrs. De- lure Hemeuway, Mrs. H. 11. Veatch ami Misses Nettie Burdick and Neva Perkins. T he float was a great credit to Cottage Grove and a splendid ad vertisement for this city and the proposed Nesmith county. One o f the most brilliant specta cles ever witnessed in the metrop olis was the electrical parade of Thursday and Saturday evenings, which included 16 gorgeously con structed and illuminated floats mounted on street car trucks, rep resenting a . 1 00,000 candle-power electrical display, which was sim ply dazzling as it moved slowly along the various street car lines on Portland’s principal streets, twelve brass bands aud one Scotch bag pipers band furnishing the music. The parade was headed by the King’s float, "R e x Oregon u s" being seated upoit Ips tlfroije. The other floats were the Durbar o f India, Titania, Aurora, Oueen o f Bees, Cinderella and the Silver Slipper, Winged Charioteers, Oueen of Sheba, Cleopatra, Human Rose buds, Don Quixote, Neptune, Miss Portland, Oueen o f the Sea, The Comet and Venus, all great fan tastically constructed floats carry ing beautifully gowned men, worn en and children and fairly blazing with every conceivable color of electric lights, ft ty 9 s •? scene never to be forgotten. Among the many interesting pleasure resorts about Portland affording amuse ment for the visitors, was Council Crest 1S00 feet above the city with its observatory and powerful tele scope which brought Mt. Hood, St. Helens and the Columbia river as if within a stone’s throw, the scenic railroad, the Itoatiug canal and various uickle attractions. Then there was the city park with »ts herd of elk, bqffalo, deer, lions, tigers, liear and smaller animals, and hundreds o f domestic and water fowls, ornamental shrubs aud flowers. There was also tbe Oaks with its scores o f amusement attractions and the daily steam boat excursions up the Columbia beside the down town programs and attractions. A good ineal could lie had for 25 cents and comfortable rooms at from $1 to 2.50 per day except at the large hotels. While the hotels were crowded private houses were open ed to the visitors and they were well taken care of.

She was the soloist at a rausicale given by Mrs. Rose Block Bauer in Filers hall, Portland, last Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Susan F.nsley aud daughter Miss R.
