FIREMEN DEPARTING AFTER BIGGEST PARADE Coatinurd From first 11.,,.l 1 .,,. pected. will be received in a day or two. All of the delegates who have not received bailees will receive them ii|K>n mailing the proper credentials to the Firemen s Union. The Harrisburg Firemen's I'nion will meet early next week to close up the business of the convention. March Almost Six Hours A paraile, the last of which was leaving Market square as the squad of police at the head marched in to be dismissed, was held yesterday after j noon ns the main feature of the thirty ! fifth annual convention of the Pennsyl vania fcHate Firemen's Association. The march .started but a few min utes after scheduled time, about 1.4 > o'clock, but the last company did not pass in review before the State of- j fii ials and Chief Marshal Holstcin in the reviewing stand at Front and j South streets, before 7.110 o'clock. In fact the parade was of such magnitude ! that tln> last division did not pass off j Market street, before the electric signs began to glimmer in the dusk I of the early evenin.ii. The right of the line arrived at Fourth and Market streets, on returning from the Hill, be fore five of the divisions had passed that corner. It was the greatest parade the city has ever seen and perhaps the great est the city will ever see for years to come. It took three hours for the pa rade to pass a given point. Fears that agents of the National Musicians' I'nion would cause some trouble by calling the union bands out of line were dispelled when the agents did nst show up until after the parade started. Chief Marshal Holstcin was inform ed that the agents were in the city and expected some trouble but he did not see any one who might have been an agent until the parade was half over, 'when a man walke.l out to Mr. Hol tein's gaily decorated machine and ( said, good naturally: "Well, the firemen put one over on us this time.'' Old Apparatus in Line Apparatus more than a century obi mangled in the line with modern auto apparatus of all descriptions, telling vividly the strides, in fire fighting of a hundred vears. of the auto ap paratus in the line was of recent manu facture, while the ancient reels and pumps were several of them more tlia i 112 years old. One paraded by the Paxton company of this city was found recently in a junk yard. Fast and future fire fighters was represented and, strangely enough, both in the same division. The Trivoli and Taylor companies, the youngest member of th,» latter company be'ng fit! years old. and the " Hopie Juniors," of Hari'sliurg, formed an interesting cont ast in the Hope division of the parade. . Both were roundly cheered over the whole route. Th,- Philadelphia < ompany pulled an old-time .engine while the .lutiiors pulled the old '".len nie Cameron" which was used by the Hope company when orgaui-ed a eeu tury ago. Another interesting contrast in the parade was the old one-horse hose wag on o# the (,ood Will Company and its new American La France automobile combination wagon. Hands ami musical organizations of every description were in the parade, most every company bringing along a band or a drum corps. There were few repetitions in selections played by the bands, and verv little tangi music was produced. Not by previous arrangement . but by common consent most of the i bands played "Onward Christian Sol diers" or "The Star Spangled Ban "ner" as they passed the stand in re view. Smallest firemen, tallest firemen and firemen in every walk of life were iti the parade, ('rack drill teams mingled with veterans who had to drop out be fore the parade was over. It was the most representative pa rade ever held by the state organization as well as the greatest. There is noth ing but praise to-day for the Harris burg Firemen's Union in the wav it handled the parade and the attendant details of the convention.
