GAMES CALLED AT 4.30 P. M.
If God loves those on whom ha sends a
perfect day, he certainly poured out the
abundance of his affection on tho citizens of
Galveston and the thousands of strangers
within her gates assembled to join hands
and hearts and efforts on the inaugural day
of the semi-centennial. The sun, as if in
happy concord with the occasion, veiled
his splendor with a bridal veil of
fleecy clouds, not too thick to
hide Ills glory altogether from
his gentler spouse, the world, but just
flimsy enough to shield her from the too
amorous warmth of his rays, and his
friends, the breezes, came in wave-kissed
from gulf and bay. touching the brows and
cheeks and eyes of the happy thronging
thousands of childhood and age in all the
forms humanity takes on, making them
revel in the sights and scenes and sounds,
and drink in tho pageantry that the art
and culture and nature in which the Island
land city is so bounteously enrobed, with
that personal comfort which is the insepar-
able element of complete enjoyment.
Iritis before the people, woke the birds
and sang their symphonies to the regal ole-
anders. Out of casements and windows
eyes opened and looked abroad across the
serried squares, where turreted church and
smoking factory chimney disputed the
spaces with shrubberled gardens, handsome
residences and white-faced cottages. Even
tho blacksmith shops seemed to wear
across their sooty faces a smile of
cheerfulness and pride. The tinkling bell
of the street car mule sounded sweeter on
the ear than ever, and the laughter of little
children was noticed more because grown
people felt glad and their ears drank in the
pleasantest music that man and woman
with the aid of their creator can make.
What a motley crowd of happy faces. The
most homely among them looked pleasant
to the sight under the inspiration of tho
day. They came from everywhere. Sun-
browned and sturdy men, beautiful and
fragile women, and girls with all sorts of
eyes, and colors of hair, and fashions of
dress, and toddling, dimpled babies looking
as if they didn't care a rap if they fell from
the parental arms and broke all to pieces—
who wouldn't cry a bit.
From the pinewoods of the east, from the
sugar-cane lands of tho south, from the
mountains and plains of the wild and woolly
west, from the prairies of the Panhandle
and from tho wheat and cotton fields of
middle Texas come representatives to be
guests at the golden wedding of Father
Time and the great natural seaport of the
greatest commonwealth in tho galaxy of
those United States. And how they felt
tho thrill of the hospitable hands held out
to them by the dwellers in this city by the
sea, they will convey in words to those
whom they left at home.
The city was decked in holiday attire:
the decorations.
The decorations throughout the city are
about complete, and Galveston may be
truly said to bo in her holiday attire. Not
only is the business portion of the city elab-
orately decorated with flags and bunting,
but many private residences throughout
the cityaro decked in colors and have flags
flying from windows and balconies as an
evidence of the enthusiasm of the occupants
being en rapport with the patriotic spirit of
the occasion.
St. Mary's cathedral is even decorated
with flags, showing that the clergy are in
sympathy with the spirit of the times. Tho
decorations on Strand, Mechanic, Markot
and Postoffice streets, running east and
west through the business center, are very
elaborately decorated, with a correspond-
ing display on the cross streets from
Twentieth to Twenty-fifth. Some of the
displays are very fine, and reflect great
credit upon the taste and skill of the special
designer and decorator. In many instances
the interiors as well as exteriors are deco-
rated; and looking down any of the busi-
ness streets the scene presented the views
of a kaleidoscope, with a beautiful and
harmonious combination of gay colors
floating to the breeze as far as the eye can
see.
Flags of all nations are displayed, in evi-
dence of the fact that all nationalities are
Invited to join with Galveston in the cele-
bration of her fiftieth birthday. The stars
and stripes and Texas banners are of course
in the preponderance, as the outburst of the
natural exuberance of patriotic sentiment.
military parade POSTPONED.
Owing to the late arrival of the Nine-
teenth infantry and the non-arrival of
the dress uniforms of Colonel Young's cav-
alry, together with the late arrival of tho
Nineteenth Infantry band, it has been
found absolutely necessary to defer tho
streot parade which was announced for to-
day until to-morrow morning, when all tho
troops will be in readiness for tbe grandest
military pageant ever passing through tho
streets of Galveston. To have had the pa-
rade to-day would have boen to have elimi-
nated tho regular troops, without which
tho parade would have been very unsatisfac-
tory. The parade will start at 9 a. m. from
Tremont and Broadway and pursue the
same line of march as indicated in yester-
day's N>.ws, namely, down Tremont to
Market, cast on Market to Twentieth
street, north on Twentieth to Strand, west
on Strand to Tremont, thence out Tremont
to Galveston and Western railroad track.
AN EXCURSION TO THE JETTIES.
About 10.30 o'clock yesterday morning
Governors Ross and Thayer, accompanied
by their wives and other ladios of their
party, consisting of Mesdames Holmes and
Miss Koss, Miss Harris and Miss Brahan.
were taken by a committee of citizens for
an excursion on the steam tug Cynthia to
an Inspection of tho harbor and tho outer
roads, including a look at the United States
life-saving station, the quarantine station,
a view of the light ship and that which is of
still more importance, the jetty works.
The distinguished visitors were escorted
by tho following citizens: Colonel Walter
Gresham, Mr. Leon Blum, Captain Irvine,
Mr. Waiker, Mr. Adoue. Mr. Kobertson of
Tyler and Captain L. P. Sieker of the gov-
ernor's staff were also of the guests. Major
R. G. Lowe was detailed as a military
escort by General Stoddard to act upon the
governors staff during the sojourn of Gov-
ernor Ross in tho city. Several ladies of
the city wero also of the party. The visi-
tors also went on hoard the Nueces to in-
spect this model ship of tho Mallory line
and were there extended every courtesy by
Captain Bolger.
thursday—drummers' day.
The drummers' committee will meet at
the office of the Wells-Fargo Express com-
pany Wednesday morning for the pur-
pose of distributing badges and tickets
to all visiting drummers from all points—
whether within or without ^the state.
Thursday morning at 0 o'clock all drum-
mers are specially requested to meat at the
Tremont. From thence at 9.30 the proces-
sion will take up its lino of march, the route
mapped out being north on Tremont street
to the Strand, east on Strand to Twenty-sec-
ond street, thonco to Mechanic street, where
street cars will be taken for Woollam's
lake, where a superb flsh chowdar and other
refreshments will be served.
A special train over the Galveston and
Western Narrow Gauge railway leaves
Woollam's lake at 2 p. in. for Centennial
park for the purposo of conveying the drum-
mers to that point. Hon. It. L. Fulton,
mayor, will welcome them at the Tremont
and extend them the freedom' of the city
there, while Mr. Jas. B. Stubbs will address
them at Woollam's lake, where Mr. J. H.
Hawley will also present an appropriate tes-
timonial to the champion chowder eater.
In this connection tho following letter
can be appropriately reproduced.
To all Drummers Traveling in Texas: I
notice with much regret in The Galveston
News of June 4 a communication from
Houston, wherein a letter written by one of
Galveston's morchants is quoted,and doubly
regret that tho same should have been so
far misconstrued as to have caused the ac-
tion which was taken with respect to it.
I know tho merchants of Gulvoaton, and
especially do I know the gentleman who in-
dited said communication, and I know
that nothlng,"was farther from his thoughts,
representing as he does the sentiment of
the Galveston morchants, than to havo
offered in the most remote manner any
offense to our fraternity. His whole desire
was to say to oach and every traveling man
within the confines of the state of Texas
that ho would be welcome to Galveston,
and that Galveston, in her humble way,
would do all within her power to make his
stay a pleasant and agreeable ono. Very
respectfully,
Dan S. Malven, President T. P. A.
AT CAMP KING.
a busy day at camp—getting down to
routine.
Most of the morning hours yesterday
wero spent by visitors and home-folks in
enjoying the street scenes and attractions
in the city. Many of the strangers took ad-
vantage of the propitious coolness of the
weather and tho smoothness of the waters
of the bay to indulge in the pleasures of
yachting, boat-riding and in that most
healthful of all aquatic pleasures—bathing.
But when the day was past its nooning a
sudden and sympathetic impulse set the
crowds in motion toward the drill grounds.
The street cars and livery stables, the
'busses and improvised vehicles were taxed
to their fullest capacity in moving the peo-
ple. The greatest portion of the throng
were moved to Camp King by tbe Galveston
and Western railway, which ran trains to
and from the grounds every twenty min-
utes during tho day and for the greater part
of the night. George Nichols and George
Walker, at the central ticket office, were
keat busy doing tho lightning change act
so numerously and rapidly that they came
near changing everything in sight except
their names.
Tho drill grounds presented as varied end
delightful a panorama as ever gladdened a
military or any other sort of an eye. Fancy
an inclosure level as the waxed floor of a
ball room—only the wax feature in this in-
stance wan supplemented by naturo's soft-
est carpet of greensward—and covering an
area of eighty acres. Tho huge and com-
fortable grand stand, capable of containing
10,000 spectators, occupied the north side of
the inclosure and was flanked on the east
by the long row of houses devoted to tho
officers' and soldiers' mess rooms. On the
western side and just inside tho semicircle
inclosed by the race track towered and
spread the beautiful structures devoted to
the spectaeular representation of the Siege
of Paris, while away to tho south and
stretching in a semicircle near the high
whlto fence stretched the snowy tents that
seemed in tho glow of tho evening to look
like hooded friars kneeling to receivo tho
benediction of the sun. The camp pre-
sented an animated scene. Gayly dressed
officers moved in and out among tho
tents busy in receiving and carrying orders.
Here anil there some company, ambitious
to secure some ono of tho mauy prizes, in
shirtsleeves marched and countermarched
here and there at the beck and call of its
perspiring and clarion-voiced captain,while
tho flashily dressed zouaves were seen pol-
ishing their arms and tightening their belts
preparatory to their exhibition drill. The
fluttering ribbons and gossamer dress of
some fair lady flitting along tho bivouac
added piquancy and softness to the military
side of the landscape.

The competitive drilling will commence
