THE GREAT NAVAL PARADE,
The War Ships of the Nations in
Magnificent Array

To Honor the Name of CoIumbus---a
Pageant that WIN Become Historic.
The present week has been notable in
New York for the great naval review held
in its harbor in honor of the Columbian
celebration year, in which IS magnificent
war ships, representing the ten leading ma
tions of the world, took part. The ships
rendezvoused in Hampton Roads and left
there Monday, in a grand marine process
sien, for New York, arriving off Sandy
Hook Tuesday afternoon.
At 9:45 Wednesday morning the start
was made for the feet to move up through
the Narrows into the upper bay, where
each ship was to drop anchor in its assigned
position. 1t was weird sight as each of
the monsters appeared out of the thick
fog. gliding spectre-like into the view of the
waiting crowds. Steaming neck and neck
the English and American admirals and
their fagships led the way, the American
ship snow white and the Englishman dark
hulled, each heightening the effect of the
other.

Between 10 and ii o'clock was the hour
assigned for the President to begin the re-
view. 1t was 1:l5 when the signal was
given for the start. As soon as the Presi-
dent stepped on board the Dolphin the ves-
sci tripped her anchor and fired one gun as
a signal. This was responded to by boom
which seemed to shake the whole city.
The edouble-turreted monitor Miantonomoh,
lying at the rear of the port column, fired
for the first time in port one of her huge
10-inch guns, charged with nearly $50
pounds of powder. When the big French
cruiser Jean Bart turned her guns loose
there was a racket that made women
scream and windows rattle along the river
front.
Almost before the reverberations of this
25-ton gun had died away in the distant
echoes the whole fleet was called to quar-
tiers, yards were manned and every prepar-
alton made TO receive the President of the
United States with becoming respect.
Seen at this moment, and before the envel-
Oping clouds of gunpowder smoke from the
subsequent salutes had obscured the air,
the scene was as pretty as well could be
imagined. As the Dolphin's bow came in
line with each man of war, present arms
was sounded on the bugle, officers and crew
Sdluleu, lue Ddllu SlTuCk up l1t HdllOudl
air and national Salute of 21 guns was
| fired by each ship.
During the half hour or more that the
presidential progress lasted this cannonad-
ing never ceased, until in all more than
| 1900 guns had been fired. Towards the
close of their booming separate identity
had been merged in one Titanic roar, while
flashes of red flame and dense sulphurous
| clouds of smoke were all the spectators on
the shore could distinguish.
Following close in the wake of the Dol
phin, and getting the full benefit of the
salutes, came the army steamer Gen. Meigs
bearing the honored foreign guest of the
day, the Duke of Veragua, the lineal de
scendant of Columbus, attended by Gen
Schofeld of the army and Rear Admira
Belknap of the navy.
The only other steamer permitted within
the sacred limits during the brief progress
of the presidential review was the Mon
mouth, upon which were senators anC
members of congress, governors of states
newspaper Representatives and other invite,
quests.

The Great Day of All.


The great event eliminated Thursday in
a demonstration more spectacular, more
noisy and more remarkable in many other
respects than anything of the kind record
ed in modern history. 1t was peculiarly
manifestation of sentiment, not of force.
Yet some Of the 1eetest and most formid-
able naval vessels in the world were there.
And the quaintest part of the days pro-
ceedings was that the post of honor at the
head of the reviewed columns was given to
the apparently unseawOrthy reproductions
of the Columbus caravels, the Santa Maria,
Pinta and Nina. These pigmy boats, high
popped and lateen-rigged, cut away amid
ships like a Roman galley, were anchored
opposite Ninety-third street, and formed
practically the turning point of the review.
The contrast of four centuries of naval de-
velopment could not have been more strong
ly and picturesquely marked.
The line of vessels reviewed was over
three miles in length, stretching in two col
umns from the foot of Twenty Third
street to about Ninety-Fifth street, where
the reviewing ship, the Dolphin, anchored.
BY act of the legislature and proclama-
tion of the governor, the day was made a
public holiday. Business was generally
suspended. Hundreds of thousands of
spectators lined the waters edge on both
shores of the majestic river. Every point
of advantage from which a view of the
scene could be obtained was occupied. The
United States, by authority of law, took
full possession of the waters of the harbor
for this day.
The proceedings began early. At A. NJ,
by preconcerted arrangement, all the
ships in the review fleet simultaneously
| hoisted colors and dressed ship. The en-
barkation of the presidential party on
board of the reviewing boat Dolphin was
a gorgeous affair The President was es-
corted by his naval aides and accompanied
| by Mrs. Cleveland and the members of the
cabinet with their wives and the members
of the diplomatic corps, representing for
| eign governments.
1t was one of time or fates strange re-
venges that the Dolphin, John Roach

To he E.Iitor of The Dlspdtcn:

To he Editor Of the Daspdich'
Being one of your subscribers much in
terested in the historic families of our
State, my attention has recently been
called 10 a clipping from one OF your con-
temporaries on The Old Families OF Cul-
pepper" in which the writer pays noble
tribute to the sons of Judge John Green.
of that county.
Having all my life been intimately asso-
ciated with the younger Sons of Judge
Green, | will, IN addition to what your
contemporary writes of them, say that this
remarkable triumviate of brothers-John
Cooke. Judge Thomas c., and Major james
W. Green-were the sons OF Judge Green
by his marriage with Miss Niliian Cooke:
a granddaughter of q Gorge Mason. or
Gunston, and daughter OF Colonel John
Cooke. of Stafford county. George Ma
son Green, the only son OF this mar
rage who was not "A lawyer, was
successful farmer. and died afew years ago
in Kentucky. the State of his adoption.
Among their descendants Is another
lawyer. Angus NJ. Green. son of Major
James w. Green. of Culpeper Courthouse,
who is rapidly filling the place OF his hon
ored father in both county and State ;
and another. John Cooke Green. son
of George Nj. Green, who, though he has
made departure from the profession OF
a name and fame in an extensive trade be-
tween San Francisco and Alaska.
The memory of these friends OF my
youth takes me back TO the day when no
storms of war had made waste and desc
late the fair homes of Culpeper, when old
Greenwood, the fairest of them all, the
home OF these illustrious men, nestled
peacefully and lovingly among the green
bills over which our young feet bounded
in the joyousness OF youth; but those
days have passed. and these friends all
gone. Though dead they still hive IN the
hearts OF all who knew them, not only as
honored sons of their State and country,
but as friends tried and true. ,.

ton of his tomb. Mrs. Justine Van Rens-
solear Townsend. of New York, is the re-
gent, and there are vice-regents from
many of the States-Virginia being repre-
scented by Mrs. Emma Il. Ball.
Miss Pamela Cunningham. of South
Carolina, was the FIRST regent and founder
of the ASSOCIATION and much OF Its success
is due 10 her energy and fine management
of affairs. The use Of wood for fuel was
discontinued OF the suggestion Of the
Board of Visitors of Virginia. composed of
Colonel j. Bell Bigger. Messrs. TAYLOR
Berry. X. w. Moore, W. W. Henry, and
Colonel l.. q. Washington. TO which list
the Governor has this year added Senators
Fairfax. Mushbach. and Washington. This
board will meet at Mt. VernoIt on the I'd
day of June next at tue special invitation
of the council of the association. who
will as usual handsC nelly entertain the
Board of Visitors. Governor and Mrs.
Mckinney and little Miss frankie Nc
kinney will accompany the board.
The wisdom Of stopping the use OF wood
as fuel is forcibly evidenced by the recent
destruction by fire of the historic house,
Beverly Mansion, the headquarters OF
Benedict Arnold, opposite West Point. on
the Hudson river. The old. seasoned tim
Der was ignIted through defective CHM
ney. How careful we ought to be with
Mt Vernon. SO as to prevent the devourlng
flames from sweeping over this interesting
landmark. reducing 1t TO ashes. What
wall of lamentatlon would follow such
catastrophe. The introduction OF water
plant as II safeguard against fire hae given
great satisfaction, using chemical water,
a deadly enemy to flame.
In the hall at Mt Vernon are three OF
the FIVE swords which Washington be-
aueathed in his will TO his five nephews.
The year 1892 was prosperous one for
Mt. Vernon. and growing interest IN the
respect and love for Washington Is evil
denced by constantlv-increasing numbers
of visitors TO the nations honored shrine.
A bookcase and chair winch we're formerly
