People in the neighborhood of Eighth
and Mechanic ale afraid to stir out of
their houses after dark. Several per-
sons have seen lately an uncanny look
ing creature hanging around there of
nights. They don't know whether it is
spook or a man. On Thursday night
he was seen by lady living in the
neighborhood. He stood in the shadow
of the Congregational church, and as
she represents him, was large and mis-
chievous looking. The women and
children up there fear him as though
he were an ogre or bluebeard.

The delivery of the address was frequently
marked by loud applause and shouts OF APP

spoke of free ballot the applause was mil hty
and tremendous. There were also demonstra-
tons OF approval at other times

THE GREAT PARADE.
The Most Magnificent Parade Yet Seen
at the National Capital.

When General Harrison had concluded the
delivery of his address the military line was
reformed and the parade proper began. A bat
terry OF artillery fired salute to the new Chief
Magistrate, who re-entered the Capitol and pro
ceeding again to the Senate wing accompanied
by Mr. Morton, and the committee entered.their
carriages and took their places in line with the
1rst division, which moved around the north
side of the building and down the Hill into
Pennsylvania avenue. A gun was fired to signal
the movement of the second division which
had been previously assembled on Maryland
avenue and A street.. 1t moved out promptly
and was followed by the third, fourth and NTH
divisions, which were massed on the streets
adjacent to the Capitol grounds.
THE PENNSYLVANIA TROOPS
The second division attracted more attention
than any other feature of the parade 1t was
Pennsylvania, 5000 strong. commanded by Ma
jor-General John +. Hartranft. This militia was
the feature of the Garfield and Cleveland inau-
gural parades
The procession was of great length and EN-
braced many notable features. II was by all
odds the greatest display of the kind ever wit
messed here.
THE REVIEW
President Harrison, after short visit to the
White House, was escorted, in company with
PRESIDENT Cleveland, TO the reviewing-stand.
In passing this stand the troops carried arms,
officers saluted the President and the colors
were dipped. The President returned the salute
by lifting his hat

to the contrary. he determined to deliver his
address nom the stand of the east portico
Mnen the procession reached the head of the
hight OF big stone steps leading down to the
entrance, the President must have felt proud of
the honor paid him. In spite of the ram, which

multitude.
THE NEW PRESIDENT cHEERED
The President entered the raised box facing
The audience, who cheered wildly. Hats, hand,
kerchieis and umbrellas were waved. and for
several minutes it was impossible for the Presi-
dent to proceed. Chief Justice Fuller took his
seat on the lett of Harrison, and Vice President
Morton on his right. The President sat in the
chair which George Washington occupied when
ne was lnaugurated in New York in 1898. He
seemed very pale and nervous Before him
stood a table on top of which rested his old army

The Justices of the Supreme Court took the
seats assigned them, holding umbrellas over
their heads, but the great number of chairs
placed III the rear for occupancy by invited
guests were vacant.

THE INAUGURAL
President Harrison's address His
Pledges to the People.


My Fello,C-citi-ens. There is no constitutional
or legal requirement that the President shall
take the oath OF Office in the presence OF the
people. But there is so manifest an appropri-
ateness IN the public interest in the chief ex-
ecutive officer OF The nation that from the be-
ginning OF the Government the people to whose
service the official oath consecrates the officer
have been called to witness the solemn cere
mony. The oath taken in the presence of the
people becomes mutual covenant The officer
covenants to serve the whole body ofthe people
they may be the unfailing defense and security
OF those who respt ct and observe them, and
that neither wealth, station nor power of COM
binatons shall be able 10 evade their just penal
ties or wrest them from a beneficent public pur-
pose to serve the ends of cruelty or selfishness.
My promise is spoken, yours unspoken but not
the less real and solemn. The people OF every
State have here their representatives. 1 surely
do not misinterpret the spirit of the occasion
when / assume that the whole body OF the peo-
pie covenant with me and with each other
10 day to support and defend the Constitution
and the union of States 10 yield willing obedi-
ence to q IL laws, and give to every other citizen
his full civil and political rights Entering thus
sslemnly into the covenant with each other, we
may reyerently expect the favor and help of
Almighty GOD that he may give TO me the wis
dom. strength snd fidelity, and to our people
spirit OF fraternity and love of righteousness
and peace.
Thisoccasion derives peculiar interest from the
fact that the Presidential term which begins to-
day is the twenty sixth under our Constitution.
