statement Of the Presidents pension policy.
The crowd cheered again and again at
the point, and waved their hats and canes
wildly. At the close of the address there
was another outburst of applause, during
which the President turned and kissed his
wife and daughters. The crowd, which had
all this time surged back and forth like the
waves of the sea, gradually dissolved.
A line was formed and the President re-
traced his steps to the Vice Presidents
room of the Senate, escorted by President
Hoar. Senator Cockrell escorted the retir-
ing President to the Presidents room. The
Senator kept his umbrella raised within the
building, and it was not until he had twice
or more knocked Mr.. Cowland's hat off
that he realized that he was no longer in a
rainstorm and lowered his umbrella.
Goodby to Grover.
Ex-President Cleveland remained in the
Presidents room about five minutes with
Major Pruden, one of his secretaries, and
then he Joined President Harrison in the
Vice Presidents room. The entire party
again formed in procession and departed by
they came. Next came ex-President Cleve-
land, attended by Senator Cockrell, fol-
lowed by Senator Cullom. Private Secre-
tsry Halford, attended by General George
B. Williams, brought up the rear.
While the procession was moving through
the corridors Senator Edmunds met Mr..
Cleveland and greeted him with great cordi-
ality. "I trust" said the Senator, 'you
will have pleasant and happy and pros
porous future. You have my best wishes"
Mr.. Reed, of Maine, also exchanged
pleasant salutations with the retiring Chief
Executive. Deafening cheers and demons
trations of applause again greeted the party
as they descended the Senate steps, and con-
tinued until they were seated in their car
riages and took their places in the process

A FLASH OF FLAME

FLASH OF FLAME.
At the word of command great tongues of
fame leaped from every torch, lighting the
surrounding buildings like confagration.
And then came a bewildering shower of
white. Up and down Street they M
marched in the center of an
acre of fire. Loud reports, like the explo-
sion of shells, followed each other in quick
succession, and then the sky above march
ing column seemed filled with myriads of
meteors tinted in every conceivable hue.
The club acquitted itself with great honor
and as they quilted the drill grounds were
Justify cheered.
Next came the Cyclone Club of Law
renee, Kan, with an entirely distinctive
display on its peculiar line. Facing the
judges stand, at a given signal, perfect
cyclone of fire burst forth. Midst the
rattle of crackers, the firing of roman
candles, the kissing rush of the
rocket and the tremendous conclusion of
hundred bombs the club started at a quick
pace toward Tenth street. The atmosphere
heavy with clouds of smoke left by its pre-
decessors, which was beaten down to the
earth by the misty rain, turned red and blue
and yellow.
1t fairly cleaned with opalescent color.
A dozen great catherine wheels spun in
fiery circles; rockets hissed in anger, stars
of hundred hues laced the storm-black-
ened sky; redfre blazed in volcanic erup-
ton. The title of the club "Cyclone," in
glittering letters stood forth and finally the
masterpiece was wrought.
A score of rockets few heavenward in
parallel lines and simultaneously glori-
Gus constellation of colored stars, represent
ing a gigantic American flag, flowed in
lines of fire upon the night.
The Flambeau Club, Of Sedalia No., was
the last organization to take part in the
competition. There were about IS men in
line. Clad in their white uniforms, which
glistened brightly as the electric lights
cleaned white upon the wet canvas, the
club was most attractive in appearance.
DRILL PERFECTION.
1t started off quietly without any display
save that of the brilliant torches. Evolut-
ing frequently in front of the judges stand
the spectators assumed that it would rely
more upon the perfection of its drill than
upon the brilliancy of its display of fire.
works to secure a favorable judgment
But in few minutes the heavens, bereft
of their natural illuminations, were ablaze
with the myriads of stars which the art of
man had discovered. Blue. greel. yellow
and red were they in hues, and the club
being well drilled in Its action and every
operator seeking common centre, the effect
was gorgeous in the extreme Then the
starry serpents vending their way through
the heavy atmosphere and dying amid
burst of multi-colored fires excited the ad-
miration of the beholders.
The judges retired Immediately after the
close of the contest and in short time an
nounced their decision, awarding the first
prize to the Cyclone Club and the second to
the Sedalia Club, of Sedalia, Mo.

A CARNIVAL OF FIRE.
The Flambeau Competition Conducted in the

'Prize-A Gorgeous SpectacIe.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-One of the
most picturesque features of the outdoor
ceremonies was the prize contest of the
Flambeau clubs. The soaking rain,
which had ceaselessly fallen dur
ing the day, abated not whit as
night came on. The general pyrotechnic
display, which had been arranged to take
place in the monument grounds in the early
evening was necessarily postponed, but the
contesting fambeau clubs, each determined
to win a prize, braved the storm, as did sew
eral thousands of spectators, and declared
their readiness to proceed.
