LOS ANGELES, CaL., April 19.—In ac- | cordance with the invitation of the Half- average stage Mikado was not in it for a minute. The display was designed to tell a bit of Chinese history in allegory, which in a fashion is being repeated over the water at this minute. It deals with two legendary Kings, whose domains divided the territory of China. The had been for years engaged in a war, at which neither | side seemed to be making permanent head- way. They cong:lnded to end their squab- ble by compromise. In view of this they met at a designated place and signed a treaty. The place of meeting was a wayside inn, and it is this important diplomatic gathering that the display represented. The two Kings were seated in a float, which was gilded and carved in oriental fashion, the nabobs in it being dressed in gold, while courtiers and officers of the court in wonderfual hats and feathers rode before and behind; others on foot bore golden banners and strange brass weapons, and all the paraphernalia of = L ’ ONE OF THE FEATURES OF THE PAGEANT. | Reproduced in the ofice of the “Call” by photo-telegraph.) million Club delegation a meeting was | held this morning at the Chamber of Com- merce, attended by representatives from surrounding towns. There were about sixty present. Chairman Bunker of the Half-million Club delegation on calling | the meeting to order said: “We may thank Los Angeles again and again and repeat the thanks the year around and still be in her debt. She has lifted our spirits to ecstacy, touched our pride and clinched our friendship.” His speech, which was of some length, was heartily applauded, after which Director-General Mayberg of the fiesta spoke britly, expressing a hearty approval of the movement to bring the various por- tions of the State into closer unity. F. W. Dobhrmann of San Francisco was callea upon, and he spoke along the same line. Albert Castle, secretary of the Half-mil- lion Club delegation, rose and remarked that there was present a man who pur- posed to such improvements as are pro- posed to be made in the near future by the issue of bonds for park and other improve- ments. The bonds should be voted and the parks improved. Perhaps it ‘might be said, he | continued,that he (Shortridge) had no busi- | ness to make such remarks or suggestions | 8s ‘to 'what shofild be done. To such a 1 statement he would reply that he claimed | the right to do =o as a citizen of the glori- ous State of California. Thirty years ago | brave men of the nation fought to save the { union. | The same injunction thatrested on them | to proserve the unity of the North and | South now rests.on the people of this State { to fight for united California. | Before concluding the speaker remarked | that it is the rich tax-shirkers that want waking up. There was vigorous applause as he resumed his seat. Mr. Shortridge was followed by Presi- dent Patterson of the Los Angeles Cham- ber of Commerce, who warmly echoed back the eloquent words of Shortridge. Chairman Bunker alluded to the society of Native Sons as having worked in favor of United California, and asked ex-Senator | Del Valle, as a member of that organiza- tion, to speak. Mr. Del Valle s2id in re- | gard to State division that nine-tenths of | the people are opposed to it. There are, | however, a few people, he said, who have little to do and they are, to a greater or less extent, harping on the question. The following resolution was presented | and adopted unanimously: | “Resolved, That the interests of Cali- | fornia demand united and concerted action | for State development, and that we, the | representatives of the various sections of the State here assembled, hereby pledge I ourselves to work for new united and pro- gressive California.” On motion it was decided to have a com- mittee, consisting of fifteen members, ap- | pointed by the chair for the purpose of securing a permanent organization to work for the unity of California. The meeting thereupon adjourned. ALL ARE ASTONISHED. Telegraphie Pictures as Published in “The Call’’ Are Watched With Great Interest. LO8 ANGELES, Car., April 19.—The Carr of Thursday morming came to Los Angeles to-day. It contained the picture of the Fresno float, the big steamer laden with fruit, illuminated with her own elec- tric lights and otherwise up to date. The float did not arrive in Los Angeles until ‘Wednesday afternoon and appeared to the | public for the first time m the illuminated parade Wednesday night. It would therefore have been impossible to have gotten even an idea of it to San Francisco by mail. This fact was patent to everybody, and therefore when the CaLL | of Thursday morning, the morning after the float had made its public appearance, came to Los Angeles with & perfect picture of it as it appeared in the night parade in the park, with the setting of fireworks in which it figured, the fact that the CaLn had done the thing that only a few years ago would have seemed impossible, accom- plished that which no other journal in the world has before attempted, was recognized as absolutely proven. For everybody in Los Angeles saw the thing in fact that was portrayed in the picture and- doubt had no chance. Inter- est in the CArL’s experiment, which is n: 1o an experiment, is quickened an the resalt of eub'd-ysi work in illustrat- ing the Cary’s story of the fiesta by the photograph system is growing. A sketch of the scene in to-day’s parade,the mo- ment of peculiar interest, where the fire- man ran up the ladder before the Queen and called out the excited piaudits of the multitude, is sent to-day. This occurred at 2 o'clock this afternoon. A sketch also of one of the striking figures in the Chi- nese demonstration, the figure with the trailing Chinese pheasant feathers, is also sent by telegraph.

Mrs. Robb is now in Chicago, being too ill to travel. She was prominently identified with sanitary work among the soldiers during the war. The colonel leaves a widow, son and daughter. FUTILE SEARCH FOR AN HEIR. It Is Thowught Ansel White Was Mur- dered Years Ago in San Francisco. SANTA CRUZ, Can., April 19.—The search for Ansel White, the early day pioneer, who has fallen heir to a $4,000,000 estate in New York, has so far been barren of results. Pioneers who know | White say that thirty years ago he sold bis place near this city for $2000 and with the money went to San Francisco, where he stopped at the St. Louis House, a sailers’ boarding-house on the water front. At that time his friends believed he met with foul play, as he had money with him. A friend who was on intimate termssays that White would have surely written to him years ago were he alive.

Other visitors stayed for | the ball, and spent the morning driving | through Mission Canyon, Montecito Val- ley, sight-seeing generally and collecting souvenirs. The pavilion and dining-room at the Arlington for the ball gu were elab- orately decorated. The colors in both are chiefly white and gold, against which are arranged thousands of pi roses. The floor were covered throughout with can vas, and & promenade 700 feet in length was lined with 7000 potted plants. The circular ballroom was illuminated with electric lights, showing to advantage the handsome toilets and arrangement of roses. The latter were caught in white fish- nets suspended on the walls and round the center pole, from which ropes of roses A brilliant company was present, com- prising over 1000 prominent residents and visitors. Tickets were $10 each. An elab- orate supper was served in the dining hall, which was made to represent a tent. The walls were covered with 5000 yards of lemon-colored cloth and the tent roof | with fishnet 48x280 feet, studded with pink | roses. Potted plants stood on the tables banked with moss. The scene, lighted by 100 incandescents, was softened with yellow shades. The guests began fo ar- rive at 8:30 o'clock, and shortly after 9 nearly all were assembled. As the guests drove up they were struck with the appearance of the Arlington grounds, which had been transformed by stringing Chinese lanternsand fairy lamps from the roof of the house to the surround- ing fence. All the verandas had been decorated with white cloth and hung with | branches of oranges. Arrangements for | uncloaking and assigning places had com- menced. The opening minuet was given to enthu- | sastic applause. Under the direction of | Henry J. Kramer twenty couples, attired | in Louis XIV costumes, the men with cocked hats, powdered hair and knee breeches, the women powdered andpatched, advanced to their places. There were five groups, the central one white in color and the others at regular distances, their exact place being marked with tall pedestals bearing vases full of roses of yellow, pink, green and blue. They came in to the music of Steffano’s gavotte, and after dancing the minuet to Mozart™s “Don Juan’ changed places to the music of the Bocherini minuet. colors were interchanged with indescriba- bly pretty effect; so much so that the spectators insisted on an encore, and again the courtly dance was treaded, the dancers finally forming a full circle round the hall, courtesying to partners and retiring to the gavotte step again. A more perfect dance had never been given. The dancers were the same who participated in the prelimi- nary minuet in the Hazard Villa Wednes- day. - zflet the minuet general dancing was indulged in until a late hour. The dan- cers were costumed in colors by quartets The white quartet which took the center of the floor, consisted of Mr. Whitney and Miss Panchita Dibblee, Mr. Worthington and Miss Colby, Mr. Burton and Miss Douton, Mr. Summers and Miss Everhart. The ladies wore pompadour gowns of white satin with watteau trains, and wore their hair dressed in pompadour style and powdered, white black patches adorning their fair faces. The gentleman wore Louis XIV coats of white satin finished in gold lace and em- broidered knee-breeches and high-heeled pumps. Arranged on the opposite sides of the latter were the green and blue quartets. The green quartet was organized of the following: Dr. Harald Sidebotham and Miss Miriam More, Mr. Cameron and Miss Grace Harrison, Carl Stoddard and Miss Fairbanks, Frank Bliss and Miss Sarah Boyce. The ladies wore pale green satin petti- coats and watteau gowns of brocaded silk falling over them. The gentlemen wore pale green satin coats and’ breeches, with doublets of white satin and trimmings of gold lace. Opposite the green quartet was ranged the blue, the ladies with satin pet- ticoats of the palest blue satin and bro- caded watteau overdresses, with alternat- ing stripes of pale blue and pink with a small figure. The gentlemen were costumed in corre- sponding colors. The yellow quartette was composed of Dr. Thaw and Mrs. Thaw, Samuel Isley and Miss Sidebotham, Mr. Evans and Mrs. Sidebotham, Carl Howard and Miss Ynez Dibblee. The yellow and white costumes were dazzling in effect and the ladies’ toilets were heightened by the pearls they wore. ¢ Opposite. was the pink quartet, the ladies’ gowns being of the palestapple- blossom tint and the gentiemen’s costumes the same delicate shade. The blue quar- tet was composed of Will Alexander and Miss Stoddard, Mr. Hayne and Mrs. Mar- tin, Mr. Vail and Miss Nickerson, Mr. Vance and Miss Gaty. The dancers costumed in pink wera Mr. Dreyfus and Miss Wheeler, Mr. Greenleaf and Mrs. Dreyfus, Mr. Rogers and Miss dF:rnAld, Herman Eddy and Miss Double- y. The ladies taking part in the minuet ANTA BARBARA, Car, April| s ; a!| Mrs. Thomas Dibblee wo re a rich robe of | Half-million Club were obliged to return | Ir this way the | were, without exception, beautiful young women, graceful in figure and movement. So sweeping an assertion conld scarcely be made with regard to the gentlemen. But there were many handsome faces and figures among them, and all were finished dancers, so that rot a single break or gaucherie occurred to mar the poetry of the scene. The effect produced as these various groups moved through the dig- nified measures of the ancient dance, or mingled together upon the floor, was ex- tremely beautiful and called forth the warmest applause from the spectators. ‘When the appointed programme was fin- jished and the waltz began the floor was still left to the ancient perukes and shep- herdesses, for no one seemed ined to mar the break upon the cha: g picture they made. After a short pause in the music the restraint melted awav and the floor thenceforth thronged with dancers. Among the ladies were noticed Mrs. Bar- rett Fithian, attired in a gown of lavender silk, sprigged with a darker shade and with short puffed sleeves of heliotrope velvet. Mrs. Fithian the elder waslalso present, a | dignified presence, in a rich Paris toilet of dark brocade, with diamond ornaments. Miss Caroline Hazard wore a gown of changeable silk, turquoise blue and pink; her ornaments turquoise and diamonds. Mrs. James Otis was attired in figured {gray and white silk, with black velvet | trimmings. | pale ashes of ros Ik of a crepey texture, and richly embroidered in pale blue and old rose, with diamond ornaments. Miss Rogers of Buffalo, soft flowing | ornaments. Mrs. Lawton was attired in heavy white | satin, simply made. Miss Baxter wore a charming costume of | rellow and white figured silk, with deep | rufles of point d’Alencon lace; her orna- , wWore & k of white, without any | ments were red roses. | Mrs. Price Phillips, the gifted singer,a | lovely demi-blonde, was attired in black satin, with anoverdressof Brussels net, pangled with jet. Mrs. W. S. Low wore handsome pink and w! brocaded | satin, with rich point laces and diamond | ornaments. This was an exceedingly democratic as- sembly. Side by side with the million- aire’s wife, who, it must be confessed, was | in the ascendent, both as regards numbers |and prominence, sat the pretty school- teacher, the petty tradesman’s wife, the music teacher, the governess. » A charming feature of the company was | the number of pretty little girls, appropri- ately dressed in pale pink, light blue and white, wearing no ornaments but tiowers. | These little folks were as gay as the gayest, and eagerly took places on the floor when they saw the opportunity. Mrs. Colby, the wife of the president of | the Wisconsin Central Railroad, who is spending the winter in Santa Barbara, and whose eldest daughter took part in the minuet, was present with her two young daughters, the older wearing a dainty pink crepe gown and the younger simply dressed in sprigged white muslin. The three little daughters of another railroad president, Mr. Green of Philadelphia, wore white dotted silk. The belle among the little folks, and who sharply contested her place with some older ladies, was the dainty seven-year-old daughter of Dr. Thaw of Montecito, who was charmingly dressed in a loose gown of | pale pink crepe with arbutus blossoms | about her neck and forming a wreath in | her flowing brown hair. This little woman | was an accomplished dancer. | A noticeable and prevailing characteris- tic of the toilets was their simplicity. { While there were many costly fabrics— and all the famous dressmakers of the world were represented in the costumes | worn—there was little extravagance of style, and the coloring was for the most part light evening snades. Many jewels of dazzling splendor were seen, but more than one ladv who boasts of a casket filled with jewels appeared without ornaments or adorned herself natural flowers in keeping with the | spirit of this springtime festival. More | than one millionaire’s daughter appeared in simple white mulle or in expensive crepe. The staff of the Olympia was present in fuli force, and the navy vied with the laity in capturing the pretty girls for the dances. A very large number of people thronged the entrances to the pavilion, and remained to watch the elegantly at- tired ladies and gentlemen as they alighted | from their carriages. Even after they had disappeared from view the thmnis remained, getting as close as possible to the illuminated pavilion and standing on the dismantl tribunes, CUTICURA Luxuriant Hair With a clean, wholesome scalp, fres from irritating and scaly eruptions, is produced by CUTICURA SoaP, the most effective skin purifying and beautifying soap in the world, as well as purest and sweetest for toilet, bath, and nursery.
