LIBERTY BELL FLOAT DECORATION. 



The principal feature of the celebra- 

 tion in San Francisco on July 17th, 

 coniniemorating the arrival of the Lib- 

 erty Bell from Philadelphia, was the 

 handsome float carrying it from the 

 downtown business section to the Ex- 

 position .(^rounds. Angelo J. Rossi was 

 chairman of the parade committee, 

 and his company carried out the dec- 

 oration of the float, which was one of 

 the largest cutflower decorations ever 



secu in this city. Ten thousand Amer- 

 ican Beauty roses were used, six 

 thousand c'arnations and quantities of 

 cornflowers. The roses shrouded the 

 truck and supports of the bell, and red 

 and white carnations and cornfJowers 

 were used for the representation of a 

 flag, five by eight feet, appearing on 

 either side, as well as for five shields 

 around the float. Mr. Rossi says it 

 took fifteen men about forty-eight 

 hours to coinplptr- th(> job.
