Theodore Roosevelt was on March

their paco to accommodato tho slower
footsteps of tho nged veterans. A
mighty wavo of cheers swept along
tho avenuo as thp president's carrlago
camo In sight. Throughout tho wholo
route tho president, with hat In hand,
kept bowing In acknowledgment of tho
greetings. On his arrival at tho capl
tol ho was conducted to the president's
room, In tho rear of tho senato cham
ber, whero ho began at once tho sign
ing of belated bills. At noon he en

itors into tho front yard of tho seat of
government. Eight acres of humanity
spread fan-shaped from the focus
made by a llttlo covered shelter, open
at the sides, whero tho president was
to stand. Over toward the Imposing
facado of the congressional library it
extended, literally a "sea of faces."
There may havo been only 50.000;
probably thero were nearor 100,000 In
sight of tho president when ho took
the oath.
Tho Imposing form of Associate

followed in indiscriminate fashion, and
In a short timo all was In readiness
for tho coming of tho chief executive.
President Roosevelt advanced from

Chief Justlco Fuller, his snowy locks
falling to his shoulders, pronounced

tho plaza. For many minutes the
jnnglo of sounds continued before tho
piosldcnt could find n chnnco" to bo-'
gin his inaugural address.
Tho conclusion of tho address was
tho Blgnnl for another ovation, dur

Vice-President Sworn In.
Senator Charles Warren Fairbanks,
oi Indiana, became vice-president of

chamber registered noon.
At that hour Senator Frye, presi

Fifty-ninth congress to order.

The Great Parade.
With standards waving, guldlons
whipping in tho breeze, and regl
iientai colors flaunting, Infantry, cav
alry, and artillery tramped, pranced,
and rumbled through historic Peun
sjlvanla avenue.
Experienced observers declared
that tho procession beat all its pre
decessors, oven that of McKlnley's
second inauguration. Not since the
review of tho Federal army after tho
Civil war has tho Avenue seen so
many and such variety of soldiers.
Thero wero between thirty-three nnd
thlrty-flvo thousand men in line. For
three hours the mobilization pro
gressed along First street, Pennsyl
vania avenue, and confluent streets

clip proceeded up the Avenuo to the
Whlto Houso,. whore tho president, af
ter his lunch, took position In the
ginnd renewing; tand. surrounded by
members of his cabinet, tho diplomats
and other notables. Then, to tho
blaro of bugles, tho big procession
started.
Tho first brigade was headed by
IJeut. Gen. Wade, in command of the
ontiro military section. After him
ct-me tho Fifth band, artillery corps,
stationed nt Fort Hamilton, New
York. This wns first of forty bands
in tho parade. Sustaining their jepu
tatlon of being tho most perfectly
drilled body of troops In tho world,
next follcAved tho corps of cadets from
tho United States military academy.
Naturally they divided honors with
tho future admirals from Annapolis,
who marched Immediately behind,
dicssed la natty suits of navy blue,
tho Jolly Jack-tar spirit fairly shin
ing In their boyish faces. Then camo
the regulars, real enlisted men, five
hundred of tho Second batalllon of
engineers swinging along behind their
own band.
Then camo tho state troops. To tho
number of 14,000 they occupied nearly
two hours in passing n given point In
order to prevent disputes as to pre
cedence each stnto contingent camo
In alphabetical order, so that Ala
bama, with a. single company of her
Third regiment, led the way. Indiana,
Vico President Fairbanks' homo state,
had only a company to Jier credit,
sixth in lino, whim the president's
Btate, New York, with the largest
quota, three full regiments and several
separate bodies, totaling nearly 4,000
men. was tenth in order.
Although soldiery was the chief fea
ture, tho civilian organizations form
ing tho second section of tho parado
showed up strong In numbers. March
ing In tho open order affected by po
litical clubs, they spread all over tho
avenue. Thoio wero about 15,000 in
line. They seemed to bo passing an
interminable tlmo, mostly wearing
top hats and twirling fragile walking
sticks.
Ohio, which usually manages to
make her presence felt, kept up her
reputation. Sho had in lino tho fa
mous Rail-spllttcrs of tho Toledo Lin
coln club, the Tippecnnoo club of
Cleveland, the famous singing organ
izations of Columbus, tho Buckeye nnd

with roses of gold in the natural size
of tho flower. The laco trimming was
of Brussels point d'a'ppllque, with a
design of bow-knots and marguerites

The decorations of tho ball-room
outdid anything that ever beforo has
been attempted. Walls, columns, win
dows and every nook and corner wero
covered with greens and cut flowers,
palms and ferns, flags, banners and
bunting, 0 that tho thousands of
guests might look with Interest upon
something olse of beauty than dazzling
gowns and glittering Jewels.
Tho doors of the Pension building
wero thrown open at 8 o'clock, but
tho president and his party did not

mediately to rooms specially prepared,
carpeted and decorated for their recep
