Kelso 1 silts Bainlce Wilson, Azusa The particular fitness ot each particular larly was dis cussed nnd it was agreed that the list con tained a fnir representation of the grace, beauty and intellect of this city. Tho interest, in the contest has naturally been increased, and notwithstanding-that the mails were not as promptly distributed in the boxes yesterday as during week days, quite a number of additional cou pons were received. No better evidence of the general public approval of the coupon system could have been given than the receipt of letters from The Xecdles, Santa Barbara and Ventura containing ballots for ladies in this city. Many of these letters arc by ladies from those towns, In which they express them selves as highly gratified with the method adopted by The Herald and slating that, in their opinion, the selection of a Queen should be made through the medium of the ballot box. The most striking feature of the con test, however, is the total absence of jealousy. It seems to be the universal be lief tbat the honor should be granted to a lady who is a resilient of Los Angeles. Incidental to the interest excited in the voting contest is the selection of maids of honor, who, next to the queen, will be the prominent and attractive personages. The Queen will be given a voice in this matter and, naturally, her desire is to see her closest friends snare the honors with her. It has been suggested that the royal .ess sbould be ordered from the dress mukerat least three weeks before the Queen takes possession of the government of the city, but it can be stated upon good authority that not more than ten days is reciuired to prepare the trosscau. The Queen will not have as easy a time as people imagine and the social functions she wilt have to attend and superintend will keep her very busy. She will also be obliged to make several speeches from the throne and therefore sbould be possessed of considerable oratorical talent. The voting will cease.on the last day of this month and it is therefore necessary to send to send the coupons as soon as po»sible to La Fiesta Editor, Herald office. FAVORS FROM THE LADIES Suggestions for a Novel Feature at the "las querade Ball Tho manner in which mas querade bulls are conducted in Europe deserves the attention of the amusement committee. Its novelty here and its charming features would make its intro duction at tlie ball during Fi esta week great ly appieciated by those who at tend it. It has been the custom in this city to make up .a select party from among the •pedal friends of the attending people and by some particular make-up or sign con fine the dancing and associations during the evening of the masquerade ball to the members of that special clique. Iv this manner the crowd did not inter mingle, but wus divided into a number of sets, the member's of which devoted their attentions solely among themselves. . Tue masquerade ball this year will be a subscription affair, and the names of those who desire to participate will be carefully scrutinized and no improper persons will be allowed to attend. Ihe ball, therefore, will take the character of au invitation affair and some latitude may be given to the participants. In Europe the practice has been fol lowed on similar occasions to invite the CUT THIS OUT AND SEND SEALED To LA FIESTA EDITOR.

The ladies provide themselves with "favours" or favors in the shape of gold or silver souvenirs of any character they desire. Generally they are medallions with the name and date of the event en graved. The ladies carry these faveurs pinned to their costume, and before each dance, in selecting a partner, she takes one and attaches it to the coat of the gentleman she has honored. This fashion has become very popular among the refined classes of Europe, as it removes to a great extent the formality of etiquette, without compromising the lady, who is protected by her mask. It has been suggested that this innova tion would greatly add to the enjoyable details of the masquerade ball. Yesterday tbe Commercial Travelers held another meeting to discuss plans for their participation in La Kiesta. Director General Meyberg and Messrs. Eisner and Sulkey of the Advisory Board were present. Mr. Meyberg expressed the appreciation of the Merchants' Association and Fiesta management for the interest the travel ing men had taken in the carnival. He spoke of the value of their aid in adver tising the event and the influence they can exert with the people with whom they come in contact. He also invited them to march this evening with the Fiesta Com mittee to tlie Citrus Fair and celebrate Fiesta Day. George C. Gaskill, on behalf of the com mittee on arrangements, submitted two plans for the parade, of whtth a full de scription has beeu given in The Herald. One proposition was to turn out.dressed in uniform style of ulster, hat, cane and sample case. Tbe other plan was to ride in tallyhos properly decorated with Mowers, preceded by three burros and a sign "1865, "to represent the pack train of early days. Following the tallyhos would r>e three large trucks with "£BB6 in flowers and loaded with sample cases.

It was the unanimous choice to adopt the last proposition and the sum of $500 was pledged to make the turn-out a sue- The appearance of The Herald yester day morning was awaited with un usual anxiety.

The "boys" are heart and soul working for La Fiesta and will occupy not less than three blocks in the procession. The members of the Riding Club will uttract considerable attention. They will make their lirst appearance in public on tbe day of the big parade, when they will act as escort to the Director-General and advisory board. Tbe club bas adopted a riding costume consisting of cap, tight fitting coat and trousers, with high boots und light gloves.

JUVENILE GAMBLERS CAUGHT They Lived In a Tent and Played Crap* lor Luck A certain number of the youths of Los Angeles decided that they would imitate the example shown thera by those of more mature years. These precocious boys, after mutnro consultation, decided that fickle fortune could best be won by chance. They established a rendezvous in a back yard on nortli side of First street, west of Los Angeles. There a tent was erected, formed of rough bagging and lighted by the rays of a lantern. Several packs of curds, a number of dice and a large as sortment of poker chips were procured. Every night a number of the youths in that locality would assemble and gamble. Last night Officers Walker and liaker de rided that the good times of these juven iles should be stopped. They suddenly appeared on tbe scene and captured eight Ol tlie would-be tin-horn gamblers. The boys arrested were Ed Mclntirc, Nelson Wflliams. Kay Manuel, Willie Pottorff, Ross Pottorff, Henry Pottorff, Roy Man uel and John Harden, who aro now await ing the disposal of their cases today in Police Court.

LOU SUEY'S OBSEQUIES The Victim of a Highbinder's Shot Is Laid Away INTERRUPTED CEREMONIES A Disturbing Element Plays Havoc With the Ritual Faithful Accounts of the Plaza and Cemetery Occurrences, Which Were Disgraceful Lou Suey, years ago the official Chinese interpreter in the city courts and more recently a well-to-do merchant, and who was shot to death on Tuesday evening, February l'Jth, was planted in the Chinese cemetery on the East Side yesterday afternoon in the presence of a crowd of Caucasians numbering fully 7500 persons. The day was as perfect as even Southern California exhibits. The air was pleas antly warm. Away from tho city nature was seen at its loveliest. The grass was green nnd rank, the flowers were every where, the trees were in full blossom and birds sang as though appreciative of the day. And yet this was all marred by a turbulent clement which met in oder to witness a pagan funeral ceremony. The body of "Little Lucy," as he was known to* hundreds of Americans, had been taken after death to the undertaking rooms of Sharp & Samson, at 53H .South Spring street, where it was embalmed. Under the instruction of friends money was placed in tbe hands, ears and mouth of the deceased after embalming and his body clad in the richest materials. Promptly at 1 o'clock yesterday, a casket cloth covered and of metal, was borne from the undertaking rooms and placed iv the hearse which was waiting at the door. This was done by tbe assistants of the undertaking firm and was witnessed by only three or four Chinamen. In the meantime other scenes relative to ;the burial were taking place in another part of the city. A little after 11:30 o'clock a number of white people gathered on the east side of the plaza cir cle and cast frequent looks at the build ings opposite and across on Los Angeles street. Tbere. among a group or Celes tials, one, a thin, cadaverous-looking in dividual with projecting cheek bones and a nose extremely, short even for a China man, stepped out from the sidewalk and into the street and commenced examining the crowd. He soon wus apparently satisfied and turned to his companions, exchanged a few confidences, dived into the darkness of a doorway and disap peared. He soon returned bearing a br iken hatchet, and again reaching the street, commenced chopping. This pas time he would occasionally vary by scrap ing away with his bony hand the detritus which the chopping had produced. This was repeated in three other places, and it attracted the attention of those who had taken up a position near the plaza circle. The number of these bad been greatly augmented by men and women who, seemingly with a common purpose, were centering there. The labors of the cadaverous Chinaman being ended, two others made an appear ance from a near doorway bearing four slender poles each about five feet long, and a roll of cotton cloth. The poles un der deft hands soon assumed the position of uprights, and from the tops of these wa? stretched the cotton forming a can opy of, say, nine feet loirg by four wide, the length being parallel with and about one foot from the sidewalk. Arough pine table that bore abundant evidence of a life of usefulness, was then brought out and'placed close to the south end of the affair, its greatest length being at right angles with the street. While these operations had been going on, the number of onlookers rapidly and largely increased, and at the finish fully 003 persons were present. At every door way were Chinamen stolidly looking upon the scene. As the minutes passed others came to view the first burial ceremonies over Lou's body, for this explains the purpose of the canopy and the side table. At 12:30 theTC were 15,000 persons present. At 1 o'clock there were congregated 2000 persons who crowded and jostled and pushed, each one eager to see what was beneath the cotton cloth. Of course there was nothing to be seen, but those in the rear did not know this, and so struggled and fought for a nearer view. This kept the crowd in a turmoil of dust that wus anything but pleasant. At about 1:25 p. in., and when those present had packed into v solid mass of human beings, which must have num bered not less than 2500 or 3000, the hearse arrived. Wedged as was the crowd immediately about tbe canopy, and each individual seemingly determined to hold at all hazards his position, much difficulty was experienced in beginning the exercises. The entreaties of the funeral director availed nothing. The commands of the police officers, of whom only three were present, were laughed at. At this junc ture some ecores of men and women en tered v doorway only to appear on the balcony of the Hop Sing Long building, opposite which the cloth-covered frame work had been erected. A burly form in blue and brass ascended tlie same stair way up which the stampede had gone, and gaining the open front at the top succeed ed after much parleying, in convincing those there that they had better descend to tho street. This they did and their g laces were in a few minutes taken by hinamen, China women and two white ladies, the latter being richly attired. Down below, the struggling was still going on. The policemen, aided by the party in charge of the funeral, after per haps fifteen minutes managed to effect a break in the solid mass, and the casket containing all that was mortal of Lou Suey was carried to the pedestals which had been placed under the canopy. This was no sooner done than the opening made by the short passage of the casket closed and the break became again cemented. The struggling increased, the crowding became more vicious and the policemen realized that they had a job of magnificent proportions upon their hands. At this juncture a Chinaman appeared bearing a flat board, upon which were placed a cooked chicken, cooked rice and other edibles; also three or four small cups containing what looked to be an ex cellently aged whisky. The chicken still possessed a head. The neck was an elongated one and brought back upon the body, while the head was raised, turned up and had the beak open wide enough to admit the passage of a Rivera walnut. With difficulty the solemn looking Celes tial was conducted to the table at Suey's feet, upon Which they were placed. Other edibles followed, among which was what looked to be masses of rounded dough or unbaked bread, each impaled upon sticks, but which are known to Chinese as tworie.'and are produced from the entrails .of chickens. All of these were surrounded witli joss sticks of several forms and diameters, and lighted. The; panel was re moved, showing the face, shoulders and breast of Suey. He had oh a new silk blouse of light blue color. A handker chief was in one hand and a fan in the other. A small mirror was placed upon his breast set.at an angle that, if living, and hung in the same recumbent position, .would haye .reflected his features. An attendant took up a position near the head of the corpse, and with a gay-colored umbrella shaded the features. A musician took his stand at-the lower end of the casket, adjusted the mouthpiece of a dirty appearing instrument and gave a preliminary squeak. Removing the thing, he carefully examined its abbrevi ated length, placed it to his mouth and gave another squeak. Evidently satisfied, he said something to the youthful priest Mra.

The horrible scries of squeaks from the one and the banging by, and vocal monotone of the young priest went on for fully a half hour. Joss sticks were brought out and lighted—dozens, yes hundreds of them, and the air became sickening. In the contending, conglomerate crowd were scores of women. Some were re spectable and many were not. Two or tree succumbed to the heat and excite ment and partially fainted. They were supported und removed away from the scene. One woman, in an effort to free herself from a jam of unusual closeness, struck out from the shoulder, landing a blow on a man's face. Another woman, though taken away from the open casket by a policeman, insisted upon returning and even braved a flourishing club in order to gain her end. Some sort of order was attempted that met with only partial success. Tho proposed quick passage jiast the body was interfered with by tho pushing and crowding of hundreds from ull sides. The police had for aids reporters and others, but nothing even suggestive of order was evolved. It was almost a free tight for position. It was not a free fight simply because no blows were struck, but everything that could be done to disturb tbe Chinamen, who were endeavoring tn pay the last respects to a comrade and fellow-countryman, was done. The priest, musician, attendants and even the police men themselves were pushed about until finally, the word was. said and the in struction given to abandon the ceremony and proceed to the cemetery. The casket was closed anil again placed inside the hearse and soon was on the way to the burial ground, followed by about twenty hacks and carriages bearing the Huddhist priest, the musician and the friends of the dead man. A carriage preceded the hearse, paper prayers from it were gener ously scattered, thus driving the devils away. The crowd rushed tor the cars determined to see the matter through. Without going into unnecessary detail it may truthfully be said that the crowd assembled at the place for holding the second installment of ceremonies, and near the place of burial, numbered fully 7000 people, and here the late disgraceful scenes were re-enacted. A roast pig, plenty of twong, candies, whiskey and other material things were placed upon the base of what answers to our idea of an altar. Immediately back of the altar and upon pedestals the casket found a second temporary lodgment on its way to the grave, and tlie belongings of the de ceased, including papers, wearing apparel and other goods, were placed in an oven, which is a fixture of brick, cement and iron, and which stands near the altar. Hundreds of Joss sticks were placed be tween the roast, pig with other edibles and the casket and then lighted. Liquid of some sort was liberally sprinkled at the end of the base upon which was the one hundred pound porker,and the squeal, the Claitg and the chant then shivered the ambient. During the time taken in arranging satisfactorily the preparations, the thou sands present, or a very great number of them, repeuted >the tactics indulged in at the Plaza. The single polceman was not a factor in producing order. A number of gentlemen attempted the role of peace preservers and order evolvers, but it was all ineffectual. The crowd surged round the oven, they pushed priest and musi cian over onto the altar base, they knocked the casket from the pedestals, which, however, did not reach the ground, for the surrounding Chinese quickly grasped the casket's edges and replaced it upon the supports. The mass of Christians was so packed together that it was impossble to see into tlie crowd and conscuuently one could not tell where the pressure originated or with whom. One only knows that it was there and in sufficient force to suggest to those having the funeral in charge the abandonment of all further effort to com plete the ceremonial. This suggestion was acted upon. The panel was again re placed, for it had been opened to allow the dead man's friends another opportu nity to gaze upon the features, but which, like the first experience, miscarried. An umbrella and a sun shade were placed up on the casket cover, and the casket itself borne to the grave which had been pre pared by ten or twelve Chinamen. It wa3 there lowered and quickly covered with earth. Returning to the altar the edibles were found scattered over the crushed and blackened grass. The roast pig was eight een or twenty feet away, with a hind leg broken but not disjointed. Again there was the wild rush for cars, many of which had been held in waiting, and then came the ride back to town. At seven o'clock last evening a conductor who had just left the cemetery stated to this paper's representative that "the grounds are still black with people who up to this time have been unable to get away." The street car company ran yesterday afternoon only one-half the number of cars to Westlafce Park that it usually does on Sundays, and correspondingly more on the First-Street line. This was found necessary from the demand, and shows that to a large number of men and women the planting of a heathen possesses a greater attraction than listening to a sacred concert in a beautiful park. And this is the history of the funeral of Lou Suey, ond this was the behavior of a large number who, wedged into two crowds, gave both the character of a rab ble. Awarded Highest Honors—World's Fair.
