IN HONOR OF COLUMBUS
The Great Exposition at Chicago Dedi-
Gated to Humanity.
The Largest Crowd Ever Assembled
Under Ono Roof In the World-A
Blaze Of Grandeur and Glory.

Chicago, Oct. 21.-In the pres
ence of hundred thousand people
amid echoes of the largest chorus
assembled in the history of modern
times, under arches the larges,
ever constructed in the history of
architecture the Worlds Columbian
exposition was formally ded Gated
today in the great hall of manufac
lures and liberal arts by digni-
taries of the nation. The event
was one we'll designed to inspire
locally the American heart, mark
ing as it did the first International
exposition to be participated in by
every civilized nation of the globe.
The occasion was equally signifi.
cant in being deyoid of that pomp
and pageantry which have charac
terize the worlds fairs of monarch
ial Europe.
The inaugural ceremonies today
we're triumph to republican insti.
buttons; triumph greater than all
the glories of war. To the parent
republic of the western hemisphere
had been reserved the distinction
Of so winning the goodwill and
admiration of all the world that
kings, emperors, czars, sultans,
mikakos, khans and shahs have
each extended the hand of inter-
national fellowship to the Ameri-
can people, and crown with their
benediction and approval the expo
sition to be held under the patron
age of the republic.
As the discovery of Columbus
marks an epoch in the worlds
knowledge, the occasion of today
marks an epoch in the world
civilization. 1t means that the
petty jealousies of the past have
been put away by the enlightened
nations of the earth and relegated
to ages that have gone; that upon
nuetral ground nations, like man,
can assemble in fraternal greeting
and recognize that the bond OF
humanity that makes brothers OF
US all. The fierce rivalry of arms
has given place to the friendly
competition of commerce. Selfish
greed for power has given way to
to the thirst for enlightenment, to
the desire for material and intel.
lectual development. The old
world is no longer impatient of the
progress of the new.
THE PROCESSION MOVES.
At 8 o'clock the distinguished
men of the occasion entered car.

grounds, aid United States troop

of President II. N. Higinbotham,
of the Worries Fair company,
where Vice President Morton and
the joint committee on ceremonies
joined the procession. Following

with the clustered flags Of all ma
tons gathered in sheaves in front
Of the balcony between each pair
of arches. At one end imagine a
great platform filed with nu-'-
clans, vocal and instrumental. In
the middle Of one side imagine
great stand with a pulpit or light
projection in the middle draped
with with and yellow festoons.
This is the official stand. Imagine
it filled with governors and their
resplendent stats, dignitaries of
foreign nations, with jeweled and
strange but vivid costumes.
In front Of this stand upon the
main floor imagine large rallied
off stand with tables occupied by
newspaper mon from all quarters
of the globe working furiously try
ing to picture the scene before
them. Back of them and to the
left and right sea Of faces, a great
audience sitting and standing, fill
ing the immense space until it will
not hold another human being, till
boys and men take hold of the
great steel arches and Chamber
through their braces high up
above the heads of the gathered
throng.
Imagine depending from the
roof and midway down, streamers
of yellow. red and white bunting
to the sides of the great arches.
Imagine festoons of the American
flag draped here and there while in
the center great carved stone
eagle forms the nucleus of glori-
GUS stand of colors. On one side
of this hangs the banner of Spain,
with it's lion, its castle towers of
red, white and black. On the
other side the green cross of Ferdi-
nand and Isabella upon white
| ground, where their initials are sur
mounted by crown blazoned in
yellow.
Near by is the official banner of
the worlds Columbian exposition,
trianular in form and divided even

izing Lake Michigan, the other
half white, suggestive of the expo

typifying the quadro-centennial Of

lightly upon his arm, Baron Fava,

sentative Of Italy and dean of the
diplomatic corps 1T Washington,
and following by two's, attired IN
gold and gilt, came the remainder
70 distinguished representatives OF
the old world and lands beyond
the sea.
At this instant and at signal
from the leader Of the Choir US 5000
hankerchiefs were unfurled 10 the
breezes at the extreme south end
of the hall and waved in honor of
the guests of the occasion. In
stantly the vast audience took up
the spirit of the occasion and lO0:-
600 hands were extended to the
skies an d 100000 handkerchiefs Of
varied colors welcomed the dig.
nitaries of the occasion.
The scene was impressive and as
the enthusiasm deepened every
heart was thrilled by the inspira.
ton of the hour.
Majestically and with the stately
tread of military came a detach-
ment of the diplomatic corps who
! marched to seats in front and at
the right hand of the chairman.
Members of the cabinet of Presi-
dent Harrison conducted by Vice
President Morton came next in
line and another mighty cheer
went up as they were escourted to
the seats reserved for them.
Members of the Supreme Court Of
the United States attired in black
broadcloth came next and following
the judiciary were the representa-
tives of the church Of Rome, Car
dinal Gibbons and Papal Envoy,
Monsieur satoli, Militory COM
manders, federal and state brought
up the rear.
Another wave of enthusiasm
swept over the multitude as Gener-
ais Schoield and Miles were recog-
nized by the front row. Upon the
stage of this vast building were
represented a larger number Of
generals and officers of the United
States army than ever assembled
since that review at Washington
after the surrender and cessation
of hostalities.
The Congress of the United
States, represented by Senators
and members of the House O
Representatives followed next
headed by Senator Cullom and
Congressman Springer, of Illinois
A minute later the governors of thu
states, led by the best known Of
them all, William Mckinley, o
Ohio, appeared in sight and the
cheers which followed were the
climax of enthusiasm as each exc
cutive was recognized by hif
friends and admirers.
The central positions on the
stage were naturally occupied by
those who were take part in tn.
ceremonies. These included Vice
President Morton, Director.Genera
Davis, President Palmer, of thu
Columbian commission, Presi len
Higginbotham, of the Exposition
company, Hon. Chauncey Depew

The executives of Ohio, Massa-

n0 eAoCuViFco VI OuAO, Moooo
chusetts, New York and Iowa were
were the most cheered as they
passed. Afner these came the ora
tors and chaplains, including
Bishop Charles H. Fowler, of Cali
fornia; Hon. Henry Watterson, of
Kentucky; Hon. Chauncey NJ. De-
pew, of New York; Cardinal Glib
bons, of Baltimore; Rev. H. G. Nc.
Cook, of Philadelphia, and Mrs.
Sarah Cowell Lemoyne, of Boston.
Then came the commissioners of
foreign governments to the Column
bian exposition, and then foreign
consuls. Next, in thirty carriages,
were member of the worlds Column
bian national commission and then
the board of lady managers headed
by Mrs. President Potter Palmer.
They were saluted as they passed
by the general raising Of hats by
the multitude. Then came repre-
sentatives of eleven of the thirteen
original states, and this part of the
procession was heartily cheered.
After them ten carriages contained
the board of directors of the worlds
Columbia exposition, with their
officers, and after these, the man.
ayers of the United States exhibit
at the fair. Then seven carriages
containing the sixteen chiefs of de-
partments in the exposition, and
next the staff of the directors of
the works in eighteen carriages
along with the architects of the
various exposition buildings. Last
came as a civic escort, the city
council Of Chicago.
NINETY THOUSAND PERSONS SEATED.
At 8 o'clock the visitors began
to troll into the grounds, and by
10 o'clock 10000 people had passed
through the gates. From this
time on the multitude was aug
mented by tens of thousands. AS
the visitors arrived most of them
made their way directly to the
great dedication building, anxious
to obtain desirable seats, and in a
short time every one of the 10000
seats, except those reserved for dis
tinguished guests, was occupied by
early CO ners.
At 10 o'clock the parade outside
III which 10000 regulars and state
MALTA participated had hardly
b ,-un d it was evident that the
many thousands who were coming
in must be content with standing
|
room and that at least two-thirds
of the visitors to the grounds would
never get within hearing Of the
speakers voices. Among the first
to enter were members of the grand
choruses, filling the seats assigned
them to he number of $500.
Shortly after 10 o'clock the band
struck up and great volume Of
sound from $500 threats joined in
the preliminary practice of the ded-
ication ode, several stanzas of
which have been set to music. In
spite Of this huge volume of sound
it made no more impression in the
vast bull ling covering thirty acres
than would an ordinary choir in a
church. Practice though it was, il
was heartily cheered by the great
audience.
1t was the throng of a century

And on the evening of the same day
Nettie arrived, all blushing and trem-

And dragged my unwilling little
wife into the back room, where nv
mother-in-law lay on sofa, nursing
her ankle.
Mrs. Martin jumped up, spite of the
wounded ankle.
Here's. my wife, ma'am." said I,

added I.
And my mothcrin-law relented on
the spot How could she do otherwise?
Henrietta, said she, you've been
naughty girl-there's no denying that.
But your husband seems handy man

After that she never scolded us any

I fitted tho tips of my fingers rcflec-

So hired myself out to my mother
in-law as Farmland, without further
ceremony, and Immediately wrote and
posted n letter to Nettic. On my return
from the post Office met q burly
young man meditating ut spot where
four roads meet.
Can you tell me SIR said he,

"Oh, yes, sir; can tell YOU" l re.

The burly young man made some re-
marks indicative, in general way, of
his opinion of the fickleness of woman

rejoicing, to the old farmhouse.

to myself. 1T is now my business

Fortune favored me, in more ways
than one. My mother-in-law sprained
her ankle on the second day, and I
played cook as we'll as man of -all-work

the satisfaction of hearing her say to
old Miss Priscilla Perkins that .'she
didn't know when she'd taken such q
notion to anyone as she had to the new

suit me-" observed Miss Priscilla, purs-
ing up her steel-trap of mouth.
HE is good-looking, amt hep" said
my mother-in-law But he's dreadful
handy about the house, and he amt one
bit afraid of work. And you'd ought
to have seen the oysters he slowed for
my supper last night, and the cup of
tea he made. Why, l don't miss Je-
