OF fire, was the word CONSTITUTION. The
eight great central pillars OF the court were
entwined with laurel and bunting.
The surface fronts OF the galleries were
festooned with the National colors. and in
the spaces between were placed alternately
silver-plated armor, mounted in plush and
tho coats-of-arms OF all the states and ma

surmounted the coats of arms The face Of
the galleries and the seventy-six supporting
corinthian columns were decorated with
great garlands Of laurel Suspended from
the gallery were a series of panels, five feet
by ten, each made OF flowers, and each

Five thousand yards Of laurel, festooned
six inches thick, covered the ceiling. From
the dome in the center was suspended an i'm
mense ship of state, thirty feet long and with
three masts. Immense portraits In oil OF the
president and vice president formed d con
spicuous feature of the decorations, in their
position against the upper galleries Twenty
lime lights shone dazzlingly from the top
balcony, and over two thousand electric
lights blazed along the sides Of the ballroom.
The first carriage reached the pension
building at $50, and by 0 o'clock the streets
leading to the great structure were a mass Of
cabs and pedestrians AT 0:30 5000 people
were promenading around the great court.
For the next two hours the throngs poured
into the building at the rate of one hundred
minute. Many Of those who entered early
went at once to the balconies, so that by
midnight there was dense terrace Of faces
above, looking down upon the ocean OF hu-
manity below. But while the throng was
simply enormous, the hall was SO admirably
ventilated that but few experienced any dis
comfort.
At 9:55 the president was escorted from
the executive mansion by Chairman Britton,
and as the carriage drew up at the curb Gen
McCammon opened the door OF the vehicle,
end, offering the president his arm, quickly

cupied by the president was reserved for the
ladies of the presidential party.
They left the building at 11:45, and
in the escort of Chairman Britton safely
reached the executive mansion before mid
night. The vice president and Mrs. Morton
left for the Arlington hotel few minutes
before the president took his departure.
The tremendous throngs prevented all at
tempts at dancing after midnight. At that
hour the number of people in the building
was estimated at 10000. Mr.. George Boldt
at a. m. had served 5000 suppcrs At / 80
the dancing began in earnest, and stately
quadrille was followed by the lively three
step polka to be succeeded by the sensuous
strains of the rhythmic waltz.
There were twenty-three numbers on the
order of dancing, and the clocks chimed
as Sousa waved his baton for Home, Sweet
