From hundreds of bristling bayo-
nets, fast to as many FURNISHED gun
barrels, the shimmering rays of the
morning sun will today fash to the
eyes of the biggest crowd that has
gathered in the streets Of st. Paul in
years, if, even there ever was such
a crowd marshaled in the streets of
the Sanity City before.
Not all the battle bronzed veterans,
who took part in that first grand re-
view of April, 1865, will be in today's
pageant, nor will the like of that no.
BILE army be seen again on American
soil, from present indications, yet with
each succeeding review of the thinning
ranks of the Grand Army of the Re
public, the invasions of time are hid
den in part by the accessions of the
young and brawny citizen soldiery to
each parade.

week, but there will be other events of
interest. The Minnesota Boat club will
have a regatta on the river this after
noon, and this evening there will be a
number of camp fires at which adj
dresses will be made by a number of
prominent orators from various cor
