Tho Wizard, W in his magnificent float, preceded by B the board of directors of tho wards and B by Hold's band, left the Pioneer monu- B rnent at S.-10 o'clock. Tho streets were ffl lined and banked up from the edge of RBj tho sidewalks to tho buildings, and tho M work of the police in controlling the I Bj crowd and keeping the eager ones back SB from the lino of tho parade was ad- tima mirable. H j Tho beautiful canopied vehicle in H which tho Wizard and his escorts rodo uHj was hung with oriental silk and gold- ill1 fringed curtains.

Cowboy Band Makes Hit. The Cowboy band of Idaho Falls, Ida., gave a change in the general appearance ap-pearance of the parade, but not a disagreeable dis-agreeable ono. Dressed in the garb of the frontier, they wero picturesque and fitted in well. After this baud came the metal float, showing the products of the mines of the surrounding mountains. moun-tains. It was made lifelike by Harold Young, Lester Merrill and Marviu Young, who were dressed as miners. A Moose drill team in dress uniform, each member carrying a flashing saber, formed the next link in the beautiful chain, and paved the way for tho appearance ap-pearance of tho fruit float, which followed. fol-lowed.

She was attended by a number of lovely girls and guarded by the ferocious "dragon from all peril. Behind tho float of the ?ueen, furnishing additional security or tho precious person of her majesty, and closing the long parade, was a group of stalwart knights that would liavo won the. admiration of Robert Bruce, could he have seen them. Lighted by Electricity. Everything in the parade was brilliantly bril-liantly lighted with electricity, there being hundreds of lights on each float, and tho applause of the happy thousands thou-sands showed appreciation for the work of those who nave had the great pageant pa-geant and carnival in hand. Many expressions ex-pressions wero hoard of surprise and ftleaauro at tho grand culmination of he event. Its value ns nn advertisement advertise-ment for Salt Lake City and everything every-thing connected with the city was mentioned men-tioned by many visitors and also by ranny citizens of Salt Lake. "Too much praise cannot be given to thoso who have done tho work,-" was heard on ovary hand. Among the most earnest and persistent of the workers were Briant S. Young, director general, gen-eral, who has given the carnival his cn-tiro cn-tiro time; B. F. Redman, president of tho wards, who has never missed a meeting, and such member? of the directors di-rectors who wero always on hand nnd willing to work unceasingly and without with-out recognition. Chief among these 1 workers woro A. G. Mackenzie and JI. J H". Hunkins. As tho wards were primarily pri-marily an outgrowth of tho Commercial club, "they have always beon fathered aud encouraged by that organization. Silns Christopherson, the aviator from San Francisco, gave two exhibition flights yesterday. Tn tho morning he ' flew over tho southwestern part of the I city, circled back and returned to the starting point, just west of the Jordan J river. Yesterday nftornoon ho again left the rende7.vous at 5:30 o'clock and immediately the big siren whistol in the D. & R, G, 'shops, under the direction of j A. B. A'oerson, general superintendent of the Utah linos of the railroad company, com-pany, set up a blast that brought all I tho people from their homes. The machine ma-chine glided gracefully to a height of several hundred feet and then climbed leisurely to more than 1000 feet as it flow like a bird in a southwesterly direction. di-rection. Wheu almost due south of the city and county building, it made a graceful circle, passing almost directly over the building, anu then flow fcafely back to tho lighting place near Buena Vista. Mr. Christopherson left last night for San Francisco. The big celebration was a success from start to fiuish, although the grand finish was the best of it all. The delay in the parade was criticised by some, but when it did come, its grandeur was more thau sufficient and nobody regretted regret-ted tho wait. As tho last of the floats passed south on Main street, many rushed east to State street to see what they could of the return of the grand pageant as, after turning back on Fifth South street, it proceeded solemnly to tho Eagle gate on State street. There the different parts scattered, but all of the important personages were transformed, trans-formed, as if by magic, to the Gulch. Gulch Scene of Joy. The Gulch was the scene of joy to which all resorted after the parade'and there most of them could have been found at a lato hour last night. All caro -and formality were thrown to the winds, eveu as was the confetti, paper hangors, and ' ' ticklers" and other instruments in-struments of pleasant torture and hnp-py hnp-py strife duriug the evening. Dancing was a feature enjoyed by practically everyono and tho attractions in the Gnlcn were liberally patronized. It was said last night by somo of those in charge that it was evident that the carnival would be a financial success. The out-of-town bands did much to add to the enjoyment of the carnival. Each of them was decidedly a credit to the community which it ropresonted. The musicians came hero and gave freoly of their time in order to boost the oig celebration. Their compensation compensa-tion in probably all cases was much less than they would have earned at homo during the same length of time. It was a real booster spirit aud the applause ap-plause which greeted the organizations in the parades showed that Salt Lake appreciated it. The personnel of the Bountiful band was: H.
