CONTEST OF THE KNIGHTS. Dashing Gallants Tilt - for Rich Trophles—Balloting for Pretty Babies. HEALDSBURG, Car., May 17.—Healds- burg has reached up ana piaced a stand- ard on the heights-of her history. : For her great day is already in history. Her fu- ture will not look up to this flag to be sure, for Healdsburg never goes back—a height once attained is made secure—but.the flag will mark what agreater step may be taken under - the influence of enthusiasm «and united” effort. Some weeks ago the people of this little city undertook to give a floral show and festival for her own -entertainment. Some one suggested a little elaboration. It was done. Another suggested a further widen- ling of the plan, and day by day the scheme «developed, the momentum growing with each move until some public spirited citi- zen thrqw back his shoulders, took off his “hat and inquired: “What's the matter with Healdsburz?” There was & sudden: chorus, united in the éxpression that “she’s all right.” “Gentlemen,” said the public-spirited citizen, pointing on the map toward Santa Barbara and Los Angeles and Santa Rosa, *‘this festival of ours has got going, and we cannot stop it until it has ridden into line with these others.” And the saying has come true. The features -of to-day’s demonstration were cufficiently distinctive to have invited the enthusiastic attention of even those who have seen all the others, and the crowds that came by the regular and the special excursion trains from north and south and who have trooped into the city by every road leading this way, and in every style of vehicle, are loud in their praise of Healdsburg and her carnival, and will go away to tell the stay-at-homes what fun they bad. The day was perfect, the sky unflecked by a cloud, but the sun’s straight rays were tempered to entire comfort by a cooling breeze. All the morning homra were enlivened with that bustle of preparation that goes before a pageant, the dashing abreast of men on horseback, the tat-tat-tat of drums, the far-sounding call of bugles; the move- ment throngh the streets of detachments of the parade, the tramp. and the slow el- bowing of the good-natured mass on the streets. The procession formed in the streets. west of the park and very shortly after the: hour set the word was given, and it moved away westward, winding through the prin- cipal streets and then returning to the plaza. Sightseers had found favored points all along the route to view the parade, but the peculiar advantages of the plaza, where the cavalcade could be seen for a’ quarter -of ‘a_ mile-of 'its length as it traversed wide. streets, attracted the great mass there and not léss than 5000 people packed the sidewalks and looked from the windows and porches. and awnings, or stood “upon the ‘housetops fronting the beautiful square. The procession was over a milein length, and this despite the fact that many of the floats ‘anticipated as coming from neigh- boring cities did not arnve. Geyserville was the only place outside of Healdsburg that was represented in the line, but she did ‘herself proud. She was given almost the right of line, with a neat little donkey turnout. But to follow the line in its order: The Queen, of course, came first, led, to be sure, by the marshal and his men, the Sotoyome band—a prize-taking organiza- tion—the armored knights with their lances and plumes and the glitter of bur- nished silver and steel. They were the Queen’s guard of honor—and then the Queen'’s float. It was an immense and sub- stantial affair, covered completely with green things and flowers, except the canopy which stretched above the throne at the top. Her four maids of honor oc- chpied places about her on the steps lead- ing to_her high position. The float was drawn by four white and plumed horses. Surrounded “by her mail-claid knigits, and followed by a long troop of other knights and ladies, arrayed in bright cos- tumes, the Queen and her following made & very imposing spectacle. Just' behind this inspiriting array, as though to present the contrastof theold, dull order of things with the new and gay days.of spring revelry, came the City Coun- <il and invited guests in some every-day garriages. 5 X 3 In sharp contrast again came the floweu on' wheels, led by a beautiful conceit in sunflowers. The canopy of a surrey was an immense sunflower. Two -black horses were harnessed in yellaw;- and theé rig trimmed in small yellow flowers, while the - four fair occupants wore ‘so many yellow - and ladies.” “white, witha sunflowers. They were Miss Harriet Se- well, Miss Edna Biddle, Miss Edith Sar- ginson and Miss Nora Terry. o - Mrs. Dr. Swisher of Healdsburg and Miss Byington of Santa Rosa_ rode in a low- --seated, four-wheeled rig that was entirely’ covered with roses. S Now_came ‘the.

Two foot- men in white led the horses. - Now came the Geyserville - Bicycte Club, all trimmed in blue and gold. and flowers, the wheels of some of them—J. W, Harlan, Dr. D. C. Lazie, Cad Ellis; John Hall and Charlie Anderson, who are known as “the 1 | (o AnERRE ooy Ty . -vm\mmm " orphans;” being especially notable, Here were more riders in dresses designed to create a ' beautiful: - effect. - They were: Misses Florence Ellis, Chloe Ellis, Nanon | Knowles; Miss Hart, Miss Addie Goodrich, Mrs. Jeff Wisecarver, Mrs.- George Black, Bert EHis and Shirley’ Black. Little Ho-| mer Black led the Geyserville contingent on a gayly dressed donkey. C. Miller followed the. riders on.a high- wheeled sulky, thé - wheels of ‘which were twisted with festival ribbons. E. C. Goodrich rode in a carriage smoth-. ered in: flowers, while at the end of this division was Joe McMinn's' clever float, covered with greens, and: in. which was’a. small. orchard of cherry trees, with four. summer girls. stripping the luscious fruit from the branches and. tossing it into the crowds on the sidewalk. :Of -cougse, the fruit remained on: the “trees, :really, and what was thrown to. the crowd was.drawn from a seemingly exhaustless ‘reservoir, On the side of the float, doné in- flowers, was the legend, ‘‘Heart’s Desire,” which is probably the name of Joe’s cherry. Healdsburg came into the line again with a pretty tandem in_yellow, with an. immense sunshade. ‘C. Soberanus was | driving. 2l Mrs. Commings drove a very prettily decorated rig. ‘With her was Mrs. Young and a little child. A band of Sotoyome Indians gave an oc- casional yell from under a grassy tent on wheels, The Lytton Training School at Lytton Springs was represented by a handsome and cool-looking float built of ferns, in the shade of which were a dozen pretty. young ladies, forming:a.picturesque tableau in blue. ' Now came the most spectacular single turnout in the line. Mrs. Anita de Fitch Grant, dressed in a flowing- robe- of pink, with an immense white straw hat trimmed with pink flowers, was seated in a low four-. wheeled rig that was entirely covered with. pink flowers. 'She was half-buried in roses. She drove four white horses harnessed in pink and decorated with flowers. 3§ Mrs. H. Hamilton,. with - three :lady friends, drove a two-horse .rig’ done up in white and pink. ¢ % K Mrs, Austin.and Mrs, - Buckley and the Misses Miller, two in ‘black.and two .in bright red, in'a two-seated rig dressed.in Ted and carrying sunshades, made a very effective turnout. 5 ¥ - ‘Here the Windsor band broke the line of floral carriages and added the inspiration of its music.’ b _Company E of the National Guard, from Santa Rosa, acted as-an escort to the mext divisionr, composed of the fire department. Little Gracie Vail sat up in a bower of flowers dnd under.a floral bell on the chemical engine, and little Baby Stussy swung amid ferns and flowers over the hook and ladder. S “The Hazelwood Kindergarten—s score of little children—were made comfortable in an ample floral boat with spreading sails, A float prepared by the Italian colony represented King Ferdinand and his cap- ture of a number of black pirates. The |. King stood on a pedestal so high that he was compelled to hook. the wires swung across-the streets for the Chinese lanterns and lift them over his head as they rode along. The pirates, although wearing heavy chains, were made much nore com- fortable lower down. S *Miss King and Miss Harvin drove a two- wheeled rig entirely covered with .mosses, representing two young sprites from the wildwood.

One labeled “New England’’ presented a miniature cot- tage and a landscape that is snow-bound— a-liberal spreading of white cotton serving for the snow. The figure of a man was half buried in the- smow. The other was labeled ‘“California,’’ and presented the bower.of ferns andfruits and flowers, in which the smiling child is taking her ease. The float was applauded all along the line. A. A Burlingame drove a four-wheeled rig trimmed with roses and pinks. Riding with him was Miss Baker. A. H. Meyer and. Miss Ethel Amesbury were in a buggy, dressed luxuriantly in roses and ferns. Mrs. Ransom Powell and Mrs. Lew Nor- ton occupied a.handsomely decorated rig. Mrs. Ed Hay and Mrs. C. H. Pond drove a two-horse rig trimmed with Toses. Mrs. Adele Livernash with Miss Lizzie ‘Ward appeared in & rig beautifully done | up in marguerites, with a sunshade of yel- low and white, their white horse -capari- soned in yellow trapping. H. R. Galloway .and family and Miss Newlands drove a four-wheel rig covered with-grasses and ferns. 2 Mrs. W. J. Hotchkiss and. Miss Emma ‘Wightman carried -the prevailing -color of the gold as seen in marguerites and sun- flowers and appeared in heliotrope rig and dresses, and all making a distinct impres- sion. B 2 Mrs. Austin’s float was the cottage home, windmill and. a_complete equipment for hcusekeeping, all built of roses, except the windmill. G.. W.. Michael shared the credit of the float. Charley and Hazel Michael sat on the porch of the house, while Annie Peters-und Emile Austin sat within the house throwing flowers from its windows. This very properly took the first prize for floats. A. Kruse and T. -C. Merchant drove a Roman chariot with four gayly bedecked horses abreast. A pretty rig, covered with mosses, was driven by John and J. A. Flack. Miss A. M. Flack and Miss Lena Calhoun rode with them in heliday colors. g Mrs. J: T. Coffiman and Miss M. Swain drove a phaeton elaborately trimmed in YOmeR. | .l A float that must have given the judges -some bother in deciding against it for first prize was an immense floral shoe, with the old lady who lives in it there with her children—a whole bevy of them. It was very.pretty. It was designed and executed by Miss Isaacs, who lives out of Healdsburg .a little way and brought this beauty to town with her this morning, taking it com- pletely by -surprise. There was nothing prettier in the parade. Miss Isaacs sat up in the heel of the big shoe herself, repre- senting the famous old lady. Another attractive float was in the form of an open platform, upon which some metrymaking lads and lassies—some of ‘the fairest of Healdsburg’s fair maids— were raking the meadow sweet with hay. The ladies were Misses Mamie Livernash, Zoe Bates and Annie Gaines. One of the features that provoked laugh- terand applause along the line was the toy turnout of little Baby Capell, driving two little lapdogs. in harness, under an umbrella of roses. The processiqn circled the plaza, moved east about the distance of its length, re- turned to the plaza and moved in review before the Queen, whose car took its sta- tion there, and then the long line disinte- grated. The sun had crossed the zenith Jong before this, and the afternoon was well advanced. The judges to say whose turnout should carry away the prizes were: R.H. War- field of San Fraucisco, W. J. Hotchkiss of Healdsburg, .J. W. Oates of Santa Rosa and Colonel J. 8. Young of S8an Francisco. The'awards were as follows: Best surrey—Miss Harrietta Seawell. Best phaeton—Mrs.. Anita de Fitch Grant. Best buggy—Mrs. Eli Bush, Best cart—Mrs. George Remmel. Best float—Mrs. Charles Austin, - Best farm wagon—Mr. Joseph McMinn. Best lady equestrienne—Miss Stella Haigh. Best 1ady bieyclist—Miss Lola Bond. Dog wégon—Little Kathleen Swisher. The award for the best decorated busi- ness house was given to the Union Hotel. | At 3 o'clock the knights, in their gorgeous trappings, assembled on the ‘Center-street side of the plaza for the tilt- ing tournament. A large crowd was attracted and held by the dashing ex- hibition of riding until the finish. Four of the knights were from Alexander Valley and four from Healdsburg. The contest was an individual one, but a lively spirit of rivalry between the two corps added much to the interest of the contest. Three little rings were to be caught on each ride, and in a stretch of 150 -yards, riding at full speed, the rings snspended from scaffolds erected at even’distances, and at a heighta little above the horseman’s eye. Following is the score of the Alexander Valley knights: ‘Willlam Petterson. . “Total.. = Following is the score of Healdsburg: Harvey Miller. Frank_Sinclair of the valley, it will be seen, won the first prize of $40, and Patter- son and McPherson, of the valley and Haigh of Healdsburg tied for the second. ‘While all this was going on, a pretty feature of the festival was attracting no little attention at the theater, also orr Cen- ter street. It was the baby show, in which fourteen little buds were bidding for popu- lar ‘approval. They were Babies Gully, Galloway, Kelly, Dah, Johns, Hoadley, Phillips, Ferguson, Alexander, Rogers, Ormsby, Anderson, Field and Hickok. After a spirited and profitable contest—for it cost money to vote as an evidence of good faith—Tlittle Irene Kelly carried off first prize in the less-than-one-year class and Beth Martihue Galloway took another in the two-year-old class. To-night the city is in the full flood of its hilarity. The plaza is brilliantly illuminated and crowds throng the streets, for the trains did not carry away as many people as they brought by any means. The Sotoyome band is rendering an open-air concert in the plaza, while. the Midwinter Fair Quintet—Charles A. Prince, pianist; F. K. Tobin, trombone; Will E. Bates, cornet; George McNeill, clarionet; Isadore Fenster, violin—assisted by Miss Helen Smith, the whistler, is entertaining a big crown in the pavilion. A moonlight picnic is being held at the Healdsburg grove, a short distance out of town. - To-morrow will be a day of sport— bicycle, foot, sack and Indian horse racing in the morning, a chorus of 100 children in the afternoon and in the evening a concert.

Disastrous Blaze Caused by a Lamp Explosion—Henry Lapier Ar- rested for Thievery. SAN JOSE, Carn.,, May 17. — Justice Dwyer’s court was well filled with Portu- guese this afternoon, attracted by the pre- liminary examination of Frank Maestos on a charge of abducting Mariana Rapoza. The complaint was issued at the instance of the girl’s father, Manuel Rapoza, who accused Maestos of abducting his 17-years old daughter, Mariana, with the hope that her and Joe Silva, a- farmhand employed by Maestos, would fall in love with each other and get married. A large number of witnesses testified that Mariana was at Maestos’ place of her own free will, and an equally large number was positively sure that she had been ab- ducted. As the evidence was not sufficient to hold Maestos, Justice Dwyer dismissed the charge. After the examination was over Mariana refused to go home with her parents, and it looked as though there would be a fight between the different factions. Joe Silva insisted that the Judge marry he and Mariana at once, but as the girl was not of age, and no license ‘had been secured, the request was. not .complied with, and Mariana left the courtroom in, tears with Maestos’ family. WIPED OUT BY 4 BLAZE. Destruction of Three Buildings Caused by @ Lamp Explosion. SAN JOSE, CAL., May 17.—A lamp ex- ploded in the residence of Jacob Faben in Cottage Grove early this morning, setting fire to the house and entirely destroying it. The flames spread to theadjoining cot- two-story workshop in the rear belonging to Mr. Harding, completely destroying both. As the property was outside the city limits there was no means of fighting the fire. But little of the household effects were saved from the cottages. Mr. Hard- ing was engaged in manufacturing rotary engines, and much valuable machinery ‘was consumed in the workshop. The loss on the workshop is about $3000; the loss of the two cottages is placed at $1000 each, with but little insurance, and the total loss will reach $5000. Stole a Cash Box. SAN JOSE, CAL., May 17.—Henry La- pier was arrested this morning for stealing a cash box belonging to Mme. Davis, who conducts the Harmony baths on North First street. Lapier had been lodging at the place and lett yesterday, saying he was going to San Francisco.
