Sr. LOUIS, Sept. 21.-The first day of
the eeventy-second conclave of the Sow
ereign Grand Lodge, l. o. o. F., opened
cool and pleasant, much to the delight
and comfort OF the thousands who par
ticlpated in the parade, and many thous-
ands more OF persons who came here to
see it. Many special trains were run to
bring in the crowds. The delegation
from Springfield, ILL.,, outnumbered all
others. Iti estimated that 80, 900 Odd
Fellows and their families are in the
city, besides many other thousands who
came simply as spectators. Everywhere
and in all directions could be seen the
uniforms and regalias OF the lodges IT,.
Shortly after O'Clock the parade be-
gan to move. First came the grand
marshal, Past Grand Master Woodward,
and staff. Following were Major-Gen-
eral Sloan and staff, commanding the
division of Mississippi; Lieutenant
General Underwood and staff, command
ing the army of Patriarchs Militant;
Brigadier-GeneralC Cadie and staff, COM

tur, ILL., The fourth division was can
tons from different parts of Indiana.
Then came Assistant Grand Marshal
Won Derfehr in command of the civic
divisions, followed by members of the
Sovereign Grand lodge in carriages.
The procession at first made its way
slowly between the immense crowds
gathered to witness the parade. Thou
sands of citizens and visitors lined the
sidewalks and filled every available
space, and it was with great difficulty
that an opening could be made through
the wall of humanity which literally
packed the streets.
The line of march was through the
principal streets to the exposition build
ing, in which were conducted the exer-
cises of welcome. These consisted OF
cordial addresses by Governor Francis,
on behalf of the state; Mayor Noonan,
on behalf of the city; Rev. Jewell, grand
master and grand patriarch, on behalf
of the order, and replies by the deputy
grand sire and others.
At Twelfth and Olive streets the pa
rade was reviewed from a stand erected
at that point. On the stand were Lieu
tenant Governor John G. Underwood
and staff, many of the grand officers,
Governor Francis, Mayor Noonan, the
city fathers, the president of the board
of education, three division commanders
and Mrs. Rea, past president of the ma
tional convention of Daughters of Re-
beccah.
