AUSTIN, TEX, May 2o.-To-day in Aus
] tin Is like the day after . wedding. There
10 just enough of the drill and dedication
left behind to remind one Of the great
historical event Of last week. Last nights
and this mornings trains, losded down
to the guards, carried away many thou
sands of visitors. The Houston Light
Guard and other state companies left this
morning, as also many United States
| troops for San Antonio. There were
some few Of both state and federal troops,
however, left in Camp Ross late In the
afternoon. Detschmerts remained to
look after baggage, and there was
A HANDSOME REMNANT
OF the regiments still visible on the
streets up to dark tonight, but where
was the vast multitude Of Texans who
were here Wednesday and witnessed the
dedication OF their colossal new capitol2
Melted away like the snow and disappear

| their usual aspect. There WAS q crowd
OF soldiers, citizens and ladies' at the
Union depot oil day awaiting the depart
ure OF trains for their homes. All of them
who could carried away some souvenir
OF an occasion thst may not be repeated
in the Lone Star state for centuries to
come. Many took the cheap dedication
medals that were hswked about in crowds
during the week, and the ladies'
TOOK the programme OF the dance at the
great dedication ball Friday night. There
was q concert on the drill grounds at
4 O'Clock this evening of
THE FAMOUS MEXICAN BAND
which played in the state library at the
Dali assisted by seven other bands. The
attendance, however, was meagre. Private

and Is much better this evening. He
is expected to be all right again in week

only strove to pay the vast expenses. The
management, especially Secretary John
I. Dickinson, have been most
Courteous, especially to newspaper
men. The same may be said
OF the military and especially the United
States Officers who deserve praise for
their gentlemanly treatment Of the press.
In fact it was one OF the most agreeable
crowds ever drawn together. A lady
said to day she admired the universal
gallsntry of these Texans and their cour-
tesy to the women in the grand stand.
The many thousands of visitors have
good reason to thank Captain Faulkner,
general passenger agent of the Houston
and Texas Central, for much of the
pleasure OF the occasion by his skillful
management OF the trains to and from
Camp Ross.
