In this little fox, whtMia ' galleries seat about 800 seats vre eagerly hut vainly sought by at least JOO.000 people the senate after a dull roll all ahd duller reading of the president's j proclamation assembling the body, began Its work. Packed like sardines In the re stricted space of the little chamber were the official Visitors, the president and cab inet in plain clothes; the ambassadors and ministers, gorgeous In gilt braid and dec orations; the supreme court, In deep black! the army and navy, in sliver and gold and words, and last of all the members of the house of representatives banked about the walls or crowded into cloak rooms. Each of these grand divisions of official life or official death, waa announced and saluted by the senate rising. All this pro longed form, with its solemn progress and weight and dignity, was preliminary to the ceremonies outside and the march at once began to the immense platform where the president was to deliver his inaugural and take' the oath , of office. jHere the great pageant for the benefit of the pubic began to unfold Itself and the people were on hand to see. For the day a long winter had given way and the never more welcome aun blessed the oc casion. . Great Pageant Begin. i The windows of the capltol were crowded; there was a deep fringe of spectators along the roofs of senate and house and the por ticos of the dome. The trees, of the park were loaded with boy and men; the broad adres of the park Itself were crowded with thousands upon thousands. Back of this the windows, roofs and porches of the li brary of congress accommodated a multi tude and every residence fronting on the park added to the imposing scene. All these were the plain people. Surrounding the plaza in front of the president's plat form were the-forming lines of the main parade, while from the adjacent streets everywhere projected heads of columns, military and civic, waiting to fall In their places In line. With the appearance of the president from the senate chamber the shouting be gan, swelling from a roar like Niagara to cyclonic effects and continuing while the senate and members of the house, the cab inet, the supreme court, the heads of the army and navy, ambassadors and minis ter, representatives of every subordinate branch of, the government and a great and the street Itself and reaching for two miles and a half. No Such brilliant some of decoration and Illumination was ever witnessed before in this country or any other, for here electric effects had their origin and have their greatest develop ment.

Waa made vlnlhln fnr tnnnv miles. The fireworks exceeded all previous aispiays.. mere were no ordinary pieces. Rockets, with their dangerous sticks, wero discarded. The set plecen were of large di mensions such as a wheel more than 100 feet Jn diameter, a presidential piece 3D0 feet In length, and a national flag 300 feet long carried up 1.000 feet by balloon and there developed in the sight f the city and beyond. The Inaugural Hall. The decorations of the ball room most succeasfully conformed to the agreement that every Inauguration should exceed all previous efforts. All v.ai accomp ished that could be effected by extended masses of color, spreading about and over the im mense robm and Ita galleries, with mile of evergreen vines, carloads of cut flowers, flags In artistic combination, electric lights by the thousand upon thousands and elec tric pieces large and mnall. with one of un rivalled proportions carrying 6,000 lights of varied colors, woven in a most beautiful design. The Instrumental music that accompanied a chorua of 600 voices filled the vast build ing to Its remotest recess, with perfection of musical attainment. In deference to the Sabbath, all ceremonies stopped at mid night, but It was well toward morning bo fore the lights were turned down on the most brilliant spectacle that Washington had seen In its long line of notable occa sions. Till long after midnight the gathered thousands walked, wondering and enthusi astically, on Pennsylvania avenue, through long reaches of fairyland. With the small hours the lights faded and the citizens rested from their months' of labor. Grandly had the District of Columbia entertained the nation.

At length all was ready for the crowning ceremony. The sea of humanity waa stilled. The president advanced to take the oath of office. With his hand upon the Bible, held by the chief justice, he reverently repeated the oath, kissed the book at the end, and Theodore Roosevelt, a soldier of the republic, became president by the votes of tho people, following the unbroken line of soldier presidents which his party has installed since the close of the civil war. He then delivered his in augural address, which surprised his hear ers by Its brevity. As the ceremony closed he waa again greeted by the roaring cheers of the Immense throng. Accompanied by his escort and followed by troops and civilian paraders, he started for the White House. It waa the most per fect column that ever marched in an In augural parade, though its numbers were less. General Chaffee had Insisted that a brigade of the National Guard from each state should be the maximum representa tion. Never has there been so perfect a regular army column In any previous na tional pageant. Cavalry, Infantry, tillery. engineers, marines, seamen and properly clnssed with all these, the West Point cadets, thrilled all beholders with thla exponent of the perfection of our military arm. The National Guards of states and those of the district showed the marked Improve ment which the practical summer encamp ments and maneuvers, supervised by reg ular officers, have accomplished by the abolition of the former military picnlca. Che-ers for Colored Troops. While the whole military column waa a marvel and a delight, aa Indicated by the continuing tornado of cheera where It passed, there were element of special in terest. The Ninth cavalry, that splendid colored regiment, the heroes of many In dian battles and known to fame at San Juan hill, received the attention they so well merited. The crowds went wild over the section of Rough Riders which par ticipated with the president in the wlldnes of the rush and joy of the victory at San tiago. It is not strange that there were a soldier's tears in a soldier's eyes as he bowed to the salutes of his comrades in war. The scouts from the. Philippines and the Porto Rico battalion excited intense Inter- 1 eat and they will never forgot their wel- pome. , The brigade of cadet battalions from many state organized by General Chaffee attracted universal attention and received unbounded applause. Civic Grand Division. The clvlo grand division of eight bri gade In three divisions made up of over nrty organizations was in every respeot better organized than ever before, and so, like the whole column, more Interesting. There were governors and their gorgeous staffs, . many noted political club from east and west, college and university men, nigh school cadets from north and south several original Roosevelt, clubs, Roosevelt home clubs, Roosevelt's neighbor, anthra cite miners, rail splitters. Italian club. Spanish veterans, secret societies, boy brigades, newsboys, drum corps, . bugle corps, church societies, cowboy and clubs in great variety. It wa a column In mosaic, fairly representing every prominent element of American civic Ufa. Though trletly civilian, it commute organiser had given. It a semi-military character by appointing quartermaster and commissary generals, inspector generals and every ether brand of officer of high ' rank, and ad jutant generals and aide sufficient for an army corps, with General Howard and Gen eral Joe Wheeler a leading military fea ture. In all Ita part it waa an attractive spectacle worthy of the notable occasion. Th whole column, military and civic, under General Chaffee and his staff, marched with a steadiness and celerity hitherto unattalned. and, like every section of this unrivalled Inauguration, It praise on every tongue. Fireworks Are Maralnea. Turning from the pageant of the day, th doubled population of the city disposed it self for- the three Imposing spectacle of the night, the promenade at the pension office, mlonamed a ball; the fireworks on the White House lot and the dazzling street decoration. Tie attendance at the ball was limited to the 12,0cO or 14.000 which the building would'hold. The street decoration were viewed by a solid marching column filling th wide pavement of th avenue CEREMOW AT THK WHITO HOI SE Great Multitude See President Take tho Oath of Office. WASHINGTON, March 4. As the presi dent entered the capltol at 10:16 o'clock the Fifty-eighth congress was in the throes of dissolution. Hia business therj at the moment was not to be Inaugurated, but to. exercise his function aB a eo-ordinate branch of the government in passing on legislation. He entered the president's room in the senate wing at 10:52 o'clock. BUI already were awaiting his ap proval, and senators and representatives also were awaiting him to urge the signing of measures in which they were Interested, and the president signed bills before him. Senator Fairbanks abandoned the party as it passed the door of the vice presluent room and entered his new office. Little business awaited the predent. The bills which were passed yesterday und at the evening session were presented to him by the house officera and he signed them quickly. He had considerable time to de vote to senators and member who called to pay their respects. The family of the president and his rela tives and a few intimate personal friends appeared at the capltol soon after 11 o'clock to witness the ceremonies. They were es corted to seata reserved for them In the senate chamber. The member of the party were Mrs. Roosevelt, MIbs Alice L. Roosevelt, Miss Ethel C. Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., Master Kermlt Roosevelt, Archibald B. Roosevelt, Master Qulnttn Roosevelt, the secretary to the president and Mrs. Loeb, Mrs. W. S.

About noon one after another of the diplo matic corps, the supreme court and the members of the house of representatives were announced. They took places re served for them. Then Vice President elect Fairbanks waa announced. Follow ing him President Roosevelt, the president elect, waa announced. Oath of Office Administered. The ceremony was coldly informal, but impressive. After an expectant hush the oath of office waa administered to Vice President Fairbanks by Senator Frye of Maine, president pro tempore. The vlco president delivered a brief Inaugural address to which close heed waa given. Then he administered the oath of office to th sena tors-elect, and with a tap of his gavel the Fifty-eighth congress came to a close. Meantime the people left the galleries and went In procession to the east front of the capltol, where the inauguration of Presi dent Roosevelt took place. From the stand, one looking down upon 40,ouO up turned faces a mass of humanity almost covering the broad plaza, and like a slight swell on the ocean in a calm, swaying gently back and forth with no disarrange ment of its Individual part Finally those on the stand were seated. - There was a pause and a mighty cheer burst from the great concourse aa President Roosevelt ap peared on the stand. He acknowledged the ovation with dignified courtesy. The cheering ceased as Chief Justice Fuller, his slivered hair falling over his silk and er mine robe, stepped upon the dlaa. The president solemnly repeated the oath after the chief justice and then stooped and kissed the book. As he lifted his head he flashed one glance toward Mrs. Roosevelt and then faced the great multitude. Then the crowd pressed yet closer to hear the Inaugural address. The president said: "My Fellow Citizens: No people on earth have more cau Be to be thankful thtn ours, and this is aald reverently, in no spirit of boastfulness In our own strength, but with gratitiile to the Giver of Good,' who h4 blessed tis with the condition which have enabled us to achieve so large a measure of well being and ot happiness. To us aa a people It ha bevn gianted to lay the foundations of our national life In a now continent. We are the heir of th ages, and yet we have had to pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand of a bygone civilization. We have not been obliged to fight for our existence against any alien race, and . yet our life haa caled for the vigor and effort without which the manlier and hardier virtues wither away. Under such conditions It would be our own fault If we failed; and the success which we have had In the past, the success which we confidently believe the future will bring, should cause In us no feeling of vainglory, but rather a deep and abiding realization of all whlcfl life has offered us; a full knowledge of responsibility which Is ours and a fixed determination to show that under a free government a mighty people, can thrive best, alike as regards the things of the body and the things of the soul. Mnch Given, Much Expected. "Much has been given to us and much will rightfully be expected from us. We have duties to others and duties to our selves, and we . can shirk neither. We have become a great nation, forced by the fact of Its greatness Into relatione with other nations of the earth, and we must behave as beseems a people with such re sponsibilities. Toward all other nations, large and small, our attitude must be one of cordial and sincere friendship. We must show not only In our words, but In our deeds that we are earnestly desirous of securing their good will, by acting to ward them in a spirit of Just and generous recognition of all their lights. Rut lustlce and generosity in a nation, as In an Indi vidual, count most when shown not by the weak, but by the strong. While ever careful to refrain from wronging others, we must be no less Insistent that we are not wronged ourselves. We wish peace, 1 but we wish the peace of Justice, the peace of righteousness. We wish it because we think it Is right and not because we are afraid. No weak nation that acts man fully and Justly should ever have cause to fear us, and no strong power should ever be able to single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression. "Our relations with other powers of the world are Important, but still more im portant are our relations among ourselves. Such growth In wealth. In population and In power as this nation haa seen during the century and a quarter of its national life is Inevitably accompanied by a like growth in the problems which are ever be fore every nation that rises to greatness. Power invariably means both responsibility and danger. Our forefathers faced cer tain perils which we have outgrown. We Cow face other perils the very existence of hich It was impossible that they should roresee. Should Face Problems. "Modern life is both complex and intense, and the tremendous changes wrought by the extraordinary Industrial development of the last half century aro felt in every fibre of our social and political being. Never before have men tried so vast and formidable an experiment as that of ad ministering the affairs of a continent under the forms of a democratic republic. The conditions which have told for our mar velous material well-being, which have de veloped to a very high degree our energy, self-reliance and individual Initiative, have also brought the care and anxiety insep arable from the accumulation of great wealth In Industrial centers. Upon the success of our experiment much depends, not only aa regards our own welfare, but as regards the welfare of mankind. If we fail, the cause of free Self-government throughout the . world will rock to Its foundations; and, therefore, our responsi bility is heavy, to ourselves, to the world aa it Is today and to the generations yet unborn. There Is no good reason why we should fear the future, but there Is every reason why, we should faoe it seriously, neither hiding from ourselves the gravity of the problems before US nor tearing to approach these problems with the unbend ing, unflinching purpose to solva them aright. Self-Government Difficult. "Yet, after all, though the problems are new, though the tasks set before us differ from the tasks set before our fathers who founded and preserved this republic, the spirit in which these tasks must be under taken and '. these- problem faced, if our duty is to be well done, remains essen tially, unchanged. We know that self government Is difficult. We know that no people needs such high traits of character as that people which seeks to govern its affairs aright through the freely expressed will of the freemen who compose It. But we have faith that we shall not prove false to the memories of the men of the mighty past They did their work, they left us the splendid heritage we now enjoy. We in our turn have an assured confi dence that we shall be able to leave this heritage unwasted and enlarged to our Children and our children's children. To do so we must show, not merely In great crises, but In the everyday affairs of life, the qualities of practical intelligence, of courage, of hardihood and endurance, and, above all, the power of devotion to a lofty ideal, which made great the men who founded this republic in the days of Wash ington, which made great tne men who preserved this republic in the days of Abraham Lincoln." In a short - time President Rooaevelt was in the avenue, returning to the White House. His carriage was sur rounded by hia faithful Rough Rlaera and his way was cleared by tne brilliant squadron A." The president stood in the carriage much of the time, bowing right and left in acknowledgment of th.e gra cious enthusiasm which his appearance aroused. He returned to the White House. and after a light luncheon reviewed, sur rounded by hia family, his personal friends, his cabinet and hundreds of distinguished visitors, the magnificent parade formed In his honor. NOT MELONS Dnt Good Old Grape-Aut This Time. Out at Rooky Ford, Colo., where the wonderful melons come from, a man had an experience with food that he will never forget. "I had been running down for a long time, memory got very bad. I had that dreadful feeling ot apprehension that some thing waa going to happen,' and could not get rid of It "I lay many nights almost without any sleep whatever, had a dull sick headache most of the time, was nervous and my stomach wa In a dreadful condition.

Vice President's Address. Mr. Fairbanks had no difficulty in be ing heard. He spoke deliberately and dis tinctly, his voice, so well tried during the last campaign, easily reaching all parts of the chamber. He said: , "Senators: I enter upon the discharge of the duties of the position to which I have been called by my countrymen with a grateful appreciation of the high honor and with a deep sense of Ita responsibilities. "I have enjoyed the privilege of serving with you here for eight years. Turing thai period we have been engaged In the con sideration of many domestic questions of vast Importance and of foreign problems of unusual and far-reaching significance. We submit what we have done to the impartial judgment of his tory. I can never forget the pleasant relations wnlch have been formed during my service upon the floor of the senate. I shall cherish the always as among the most delightful memories of my life. They warrant tho belief that I shall have In the discharge of the functions which de volve upon me under the constitution, the generous assistance and kindly forbearance of both Sides of the chamber. "We witness the majestic spectacle of a peaceful and orderly beginning of an ad ministration of national affair under the laws of a free and self-governing people. "We pry that Divine favor may attend It and that peace and progress, justice and honor may abide with our country and with our countrymen." The address received careful attention, and at its conclusion the vice president Instructed the secretary of the senate to read the president's call for an extraordi nary session of the senate. The reading accomplished and the senate of the Fifty ninth congress thus installed, Dr. Edward Everett Hale, the venerable chaplain ot the senate, came forward to deliver the opening prayer of the first session. In response to a quiet signal from .the chair tho senate and its guests rose and stood while Dr. Hale, in his usual impressive manner, uttered the Invocation: The organization of the senate was then completed by the swearing In of senators elected to serve for the next six years. They apeared in platoons of four. In alphabetical order, at the desk of the vice president, each being accompanied by his colleague. The oath was administered by Mr. Fairbanks, and in each case was im mediately followed by signing the senate roll of membership. This ceremony con cluded the day's session, and the senate adjourned to the outside platform to wit ness, With others, th inauguration of President Roosevelt.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal Is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier In nature, but few realize Its value when taken Into the human system for the earn Cleansing purpose. Charcoal la a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gaaes and Impurities always present In th stomach and Intes tines and carries them out of th system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok ing, drinking or after eating onion and other odorous vegetable. Chrcoal effectually clears und improve the complexion, it whitens th teeth and further act a a natural and eminently safe cathartic.
