seats on the reviewing stand, which had
been erected st the State street entrance to
Capitol Park. The parade started at 1:3O p.
NJ. and passed the stand at q 1t occupied
half an hour in passing and during the
whole time Governor Pattison gave his
whole attention to the "boys" He lifted
his hat politely to them as each club or
division passed. Some of the political or
ganizations eheered him, which compliment
he always acknowledged in graceful man.
ner.
He seemed especially pleased with the
salute and bearing of the Randall Club, of
Pittsburg. The uniform of the Pittsburg-
ers was striking when compared with that
of the other political clubs. Their march
ing was better and they presented clean,
dressy appearance, which was the subject OF
general comment The full attendance of
the club was out and, considering their loss
of sleep on account of getting here at 8
o'clock in the morning, they have much to
feel fiattered about. Being the only organ
ization from the western e1d of the State,
they got into the good graces of the new ad-
ministration at once.
Some Features of the Parade.
A general feature of the line was the large
number of toy roosters, carried either on
canes or in the hats of the marchers. One
club from the anthracite frontier sporsed a
live rooster high in the air on a pole Pretty
flowers and the national colors were the
only other ornaments of the line, except the
usual silk banners owned by the political
clubs. The entire absence of the campaign
transparencies relieved the line from that
cheap appearance which always goes with
them.
The Eighth Regiment, N. G. P, aud the
Governors troop of cavalry simply furnished
a soldierly escort to the parade. There was
a conspicuous absence in the military diyis-
ion. Captain Thomas f. Malonev and his
company, the City Grays. of Harrisburg,
were not at the head of the Eighth Regl.
ment, their usual position, neither were they
in the line. At the very time the marchers
were crowding into the city Captain Ma
loney, who had arranged to be with his com
mand to-day, was lying Geld in death. He
was drowned in the Susquehanna river last
night. He was Superintendent of the State
Arsenal, and was to have been reappointed
by Governor Pattison.
