The hotels are packed, boarding-houses
are full and hundreds eat and sleep on

which has been set aside In her name.
The Broolxlynites, after celebrating
their day on Saturday. and insisting
that they would never be merged into

a part Of the greater New York helped
celebrate Manhattan day with charsc-
teristic enthusiasm
Early in the morning the streets Ut
Atlanta were filed with people. All
were eager to see the starting Of the
procession which escorted Mayor Strong
and his party to the exposition grounds.
New York's reform mayor, with his
brilliant cavalcade, has moved through
Atlanta's streets with as much pUtnp
and ceremony as any governor OF a
state who has been here. Ills escort

novelty here. and caused much COM

the exposition grounds.
Arriving at the exposition grounds
the procession entered through the
main gallery and proceeded to the New
York state building. The gray stone
walls and white porticos Of the build
ing were profusely draped with
bunting for the occasion, and q
reviewing stand was erected In front.
Here Mayor Strong and the
officials Of the day alighted and rc-
viewed the troops. Then, as the
New York building was not large
enough to hold the crowd, everybody
proceeded to the auditorium, near the
entrance, and the orntorical exercises
OF the day began. Sousa's band played
"The Star Spangled Banner" and
other inspiring airs between spec cles.
