This Pontain dragon will be 300 feet long and it will require 612 men to carry it along the street. It will be covered with thousands of scales and will be highly coloured. "And as it moves up Market street, with its great hideous head wagging and gaping viciously and its long body nad sweepingtail zigzagging along far down the street, it will be a sight to bulge the over of the Eastern visitors and persuade the bibulnus to a-batter life.

The lion, too, will he sqmething which should bring Roosevelt all the way from Africk For. not even in the deepest jungle glades could preis agent dream of ass member of the lion family standing 18 full feat high and measuri 30 feet in length, Yet such will be the dime sions of the Chinesa lion which will rase up the business streets of this city on the day of the Portola parade.
