Some little delay in forming the pro- flt
lesaiou was occasioned by the trains bl
ringing visiting firemen to the city bo

laturedly and the tiino thus spent did in

THK I'JIOCEHHIOK.
The procession was headed by a dozen
moro carriages containing the members nni
the city council , honorary inomburs of
lie lira department , and members of the
rosn. Following this carnn a bndy of
oliccmon , followed by the Union Pacific
ind. After this came the firemen , ap-
oaatus , otc.
In the procession were five bancta , all i
which in turn discoursed sweet music.
The procession moved down Farnam or
trcot to Tenth , und down Tenth toJnck-
nn. : As they were marching down '
'enth they were mot by the Suward and thi
'Vomont fire companies , headed by the rai
lownrd cornet band , and the Itosono nnd Th

Muffs , headed by the Bavarian band.
Fho visiting boya countormnrched and

The line of march wnu than taken up lie

THK DKCOUATIONS. coi
The decorations of the fire apparatus of f
the line were very fine. The finest ,
fin
loubtloEB , was that of hose company No
Upon their cart waq a magnificent thi
lorso-ahoo , about eighteen inches injfifl
might and niado of natural flowero. It I '
fas composed of largo quantities of tuboitet
osos and other fragrant blossoms and nd
was presented to the boys by a lady
friend who holds the members
of the company in very high patconi. It
was A fmo present niul every blossom is
chorishcd by Uio members of No. 2 , AS
sncrod , Long after the Honors have lost
their sweetness And the petals hnvo f lIon l-
Ion from the stem the boys will remember
bor the giver with grateful hearts.
The hook Atid ladder truck WAS very
tastily decorated with flags and festoons
of oak leaves hanging from the sides.
The engines were trimmed up in good
shnpo And the bright metal was polished
until the bright sun reflected from their
tides presented A dazzling brightness
painful to look tiponwithoutsmokoJglass.
The eiiRino from Council Biulti was
drawn by four horses and was appropri
ately trimmed. The Duraut onglno was
A ! O propelled by the Aid of four power
ful horses. '
THK nuiUNT iiosr. COMPANY
WAS , without doubt , the finest Appearing
body of mon in the procession. They
were of uniform slzp and marched with
heads erect nnd n military tread which at
once told of drill and discipline. The
Plnttsmouth company presented n fine
appearance nnd were hoadcd by n finely
uniformed bind , the B. & AI , In fact ,
every company in the procession is enti
tled to great credit for the manner in
which they were uniformed and for the
training which they hnvo hnd under clli-
cient captains And foremen.
In the whole procession there wns no
fcnturo which added moro to the suc
cess cf the afl'.xir tlmn the Musical
Union band. This organization dis
coursed n number of now nnd beautiful
selections which were thoroughly appre
ciated.
TUB STUECTS.
_ The streets through which the proces
sion passed presented a holiday appear-
anco. From business houses nnd dwel
ling ! Hags nnd bunting were Hying ,
ivhila many had goiio to A great deal
af expenses in having scaffolds erected
which wcro covered with boughs , nnd
ivhon compared with the hot nnd dusty
pavements looked like fairy bowers on
111 oasis in n dccert spot.
T.ikoii as n whole it waa A grand
went nnd ono of which the firemen
ind citizens of Omaha may well bo proud
tud when months and years have rolled
jy they can look back to this day with
lot a fooling other than that of pride
ind satisfaction.
Aftarnonn ,
From ono to throe o'oiock yostcrda
ifternoon Sixteenth street w.vj crowded
vith hacks and carriages carrying their
luinan freight to the tonrnnincnt
rounds. The several conipanioa did note
o out in procession , but each oua wont
o the grounds at the tinio and in the
iiannor it saw fit , some not putting in U
a appearance until three o'clock.
The contests to take place as arranged
y the programme were the , grcon race ,
the ono for teams which never hud
ontoated , nnd the state championship
lose race. The great feature of the
ftcrnoon's entertainment was the latter ,
nit owing to the fact that many of the
isilhig firemen had been fatigued by the
eng : and hot parade of the forenoon ,
ho board of cjntrol of the association
aw fit to postpone this contest until to-
lay , it being placed first upon the pro-
raiumo. A guntlo protest was entered
ipaiust this change by some of the man-
igors but when the board of control stood
inn , they succumbed to thi ) iuovitn
The green race was to have been
ailed at thrco o'clock , but
ho entered teams were late in appear-
ng and nothing was done until nearly
our. The entries in this race wore the
31eland HOBO company of Fremont , the
eluga company of Omaha , nnd the
Nebraska City No. 1. Lots were cast
or their order in the race and the Clo-
and's : draw first , the Deluge second and
Nebraska City third. The distance to
o run was 200 yards , besides laying 300
cot of hoao , breaking aud making n hose

mi , iiovi ) SAID :
"Tho exceedingly pleasant taskhna
boon given to 1110 of welcoming you , the
liromen of this aud adjoining states , to
our young ami , to us , our buautiful city.
" nssuro you that although 1 hiwo partic
ipated in numerous prominent recep
tions in Qmahii , both ollicinlly as its
mayor nnd uiiofliciolly as now , n private
citizen , 1 have never felt more
honored by being called upon to any
the words of welcome than 1 do on this
occasion. 11 is n very dilllcult task for
no al homo to tell how wo appreciate our
own gnllnnt firemen. Other localities
are just ns willini ; to recognize true
wortli and merit ; so , when they send
their bravest sona hero to join ours in
the innocent yet moat practical features
of this tournament , they would know-
how our hearts nrn opened up to the * vis
itors ; how each and every citiv.on flof
Omaha is most anxiuus to give greeting
to these who Imvo come from without
its wiills to pass away a few
hours in praiseworthy , fiiondly contest
for preferment and ( supremacy. Yet ,
gen'lomcn , when wo cay \rolcomo , thrice
welcome , you mutt remember that during
your stay wo look upon you ns part and
parcel of our own fire department in
every meed of honor wo can bestow ,
every mark of esteem wo can give , every
sign of Rubatmitial recognition wo can
make , and every welcoming hand wo cnn
extend. " Mr. lioyd related nt some
length the duties nnd perils of fireman ,
and concluded by invoking the firemen
to remember that they were regarded na
thogrontcat horoa in peace and so consider
ed by their friends who regarded no
laurel wreath too honorable to place
upon their brows.
Mr1 Uoyd waa followed by Colonel
Smyth and IIon.J.M.Tliuraton who kept
the crowd in continued laughter by their
witty allusions. This completed the en
tertainment propsr for the day. Chief
Hutler announced that the great coup
ling contest would take place immedi
ately after the meeting's adjournment ,
in the Academy of Music , nnd invited
ill to witness it. Hut few , however , at
tended nnd it wna deemed bust to post oil
pone it until this ovoning.
The IMallHiuoutlicrB In Omalm ,
The 1'hltamouth Journal charges that
the managers of tbo park where the
homo club played last wcok gouged
them out of their portion of the rccoipta , E
and pictures the feeling of the boys in
the following :
"Although n fnir crowd wna present nt
each game the total gate receipts were
847 , duo to the fact that n largo proportion
tion of the spectators entered ou eeaaon
tickets , for which our club got nothing.
But this is not nil. When the last game
waa over , nnd when the boya had but n
momenta loft them in which to catch the
train for homo , they wont to the mana
ger of the park to aettlo up.
Thin important porBOnngo figured
up the recoitna nt § 47 , nnd the
boyu were just preparing to pocket half
of that sum when the manager informed
them that ho had spent $24 in advertising
the games , $ < ! for thodistribution of them
by amall boys , and the remainder for lo
cal in the papers. It wns evident that ho
hud n gouge game prepared for the hoys
and when they got away from him they
wcro inclined to bo thankful for
ovun the § 11 f)0 they wcro nwnrd-
od fur their uharo of the
throe dnya' games. Tliuy had begun to
fear that ho would figure iteoinn way r > o
to bring them out in debt to him. The
Plnttsmouth nine nnd their friends came
ntvny very warm , and are determined to
ndvortiso their treatment by the park
management tlmt no other club in the
jtato will over ha taken in by them. "
