Pennsylyanlat avenue to the Capltol and after en circling that building win rids up the Avenue again and will then proceed to the landing at the foot ol Seventeenth street where he will take a launch for the royal barge To Hold Court on Barge The royal barge resplendent with lights and gorgeously decorated will be anchored in the center of the tidal basin A throne for the king will occupy the center of it and upon this the monarch will take his place while his attendants and the courtiers will group themselves on the steps of the platform upon which the throne win be mounted The judges who will have officiated at the regatta to be held in the afternoon also will have places on the barge as will the judges lesignated to award the carnival prizes No decision has been reached as yet as to the Identity of the man who will impersonate Old King Cole It is possible that a well known actor will assume the part for the night or that a member of some well known organization such as the Saengerbund may be selected He will be requirel to live up to the repu tation which he has earned of being a merry cia souL and he will be penalized if he permits his features to relax even once into an expression suggesting anything but joy unconfined Will Start Water Parade Immediately after Old King Cole who is to be the official bestower of prizes as well as the ruler of the carnival has taken his place on the royal barge the signal will be given for the start of the water parade All the canoes launches and motorboats which will have entered the parade will have gathered at the upper end of the river near the Aqueduct bridge in the meantime The revenue cutters which will have charge of the policing of the course will have taken up their positions as will the six torpedoboats which the

steamers which are expected to brlnrj crowds to view this part of the spetncle and other boats which are not entered in the parade will be held in line by those in charge of the policing of the river The exact point from which the parade will start will be decided upon jv the revenue cutter officers and will be an nounced later Launches to lead First In line will come the decorated and illuminated launches and motorboats These will proceed down th river over the marked course and will enter the tidal basin through the inlet There they will be required to select positions which will be assigned to tium and to come to anchor at onco so lhat their wash will not Interfere with the safe progress of the canoes which will make up the second division of the carade The canoes will enter the tidal basin and will encircle the royal barge filing slowly past the judges and will then make for the open river again as it will be impossible for them to remain inside because of the comparatively small size of the basin A number cf extremely elaborate and spectacular decorative schemes are being planned for some of the boats which will participate in the carnival and it is safe to predict that on the evening a scene of unrivaled picturesqueness will be presented to the gaze of the thousands who will visit the shores of the tidal basin and cf the river All of the prizes will be presented personally by Old King Coie The judges of the afternoon regatta will have decided upon their awards before they reach ths royal barge and the winners of the va i IKASr110A JLJ CUVV1G We Cannot Display
