12.000 FIREMEN
IN PARADE LINE
Caatlaurd Kroa First Page,
cial trams «: practically the same time.
When the crush became thickest before
11 o clock Chief Marshal Holstein
plunged into the thick of the crowd I
and directed the movement of the com
panics. The York countv delegation
blocked the street from the station en- !
trance to the square and traffic on M»r !
k«ff >treet was practically impossible.
At 11.30 o'clock thief Marshal
Holstein, in the flower-covered nutomo :
bile, neat to th-> head of the line and i
began active preparation* fot the move
ment of the parade. By noon the great
er part of the visitors were in the eit\ ,
and on their wa_v to various (ire houses i
for lunch,
Divisions began arriving at' stated
places along Second street, right rest
ing on aide streets, at 1 o'clock. All 1
dvision marshals were again cautioned j
this moruitig as to the deportment of ;
the men in line and attention was called
to several sections of the rules, which j
required all marchers to refrain from

Chief of Staff of the Parade of the i'
State Firemen
to prevent dnncing and funny antics in If
line and to exclude from the parage all j '
intoxicated men. j 1
The Parade Contests
It was believed that the men would
pay close attention to these important
details as to deportment, as this will ■
have something to do with the awarding
ol the parade prizes. Visiting firemen
were contesting for the t'ollowng j
prizes: Finest uniformed company in
line, $100; having largest!
number of uniformed men, $100; com-j
panv having next largest number of 1
uniformed men, SSO; uniformed com
panv having finest apparatus in line, I
$100; uniformed company having finest >
parade apparatus, SSO; company com-1
ing greatest ditsance, to include not
less than 25 uniformed men and band
of not less than 20 men. $100; uni
formed company having oldest up para i
tu« in line. $25; best Darktown File
Company, $75; second best Darktown
Fire Company, $25; tallest uniformed
fireman in line. $25; smallest uniformed
fireman in line. $25; heaviest uni
formed fireman in line, $25.
The parade committee to-day sta
tioned the judges at secret places over
the route. The location of the .judges
was kept a secret even from the chief
marshal. As soon as the parade is dis
missed in Market square the judges
will meet in the headquarters of the '•
Harrisburg Firemen's Union and decide
on the prize-winners. The results [
should be known this evening at 7
0 'clock.
Checks for the various amounts have i
been prepared and as soon as a winner 1
is decided the name of the company
will be filled in the blank space anil
the check will be dispatched to that
company.
The procession will he headed bv a
squad of policemen under Captain Jo
seph B. Thompson and thb squad will
consist of Policemen Mulligan, Gra
ham. Cummings, Gibbons, Scott, Shoe
maker, Essig, Kautz, Rutter, Lyme,

LAST NIGHT S STREET SCENES |
WAV DESPITE THE DRIZZLE
The first really big night in connec
tion with the State Firemen's conven
tion was last evening. Despite a mean
drizzle, which made it unpleasant,
the streets were crowded until mid
night. In addition to thousands of,
firemen there were many other visitors
in the city, come to see the big pa
-1 rade.
The crowd was made merry because
' of the ball of the Harrisburg Mum
mers' Association in Winterdale hull. |
! Scores in fancy costumes mingled with
the crowds on the streets and helped 1
make the evening one to be remember
ed. There were many other activities
that attracted the attention of the vis
i itors. the chief one being a ball in the
: Chestnut street hall for the delegates j
and their wives.
Preceding the opening of the ball
the members of the Ladies' Auxiliary
of the State Association, gave Mrs.
Samuel S Smith, of Norristown, the
retiring president of the auxiliary, a
i cut glass luncheon set. The gift was
presented by William Sharah, of Brad
dock. Mrs. Smith responded. The com
mittee in charge of the presentation
was as follows: Mrs. William .Sharah,
of Braddock; Mrs. C. F. Harkins, of i
York; Mrs. Charles Spears, of Read
ing: Mrs. John Musser, of Bnmesboro.
Every fire company in the city took I
j care of its g.iesfs with special enter- '
tainment in fire houses or places near
by, rented for the occasion. Many
band concerts were held during the
evening.
