PAGEANT OF PEACE.
FIFTY THOUSAND OLD SOLDIERS
PASS IN REVIEW.
President Mckinley Leads the Vet
Grams in the Grand Army Parade
at Buffa1o-Martia1 Columns Are
Cheered by Half a Million.
Touch Elbows Again,

Nearly 10000 war-worn veterans. with
the President of the United States at
their head, made the triumphal march of
the Grand Army of the Republic in Buff
falo Wednesday. For more than six hours
the grizzled but undaunted remnants of
the armies of the republic poured through
the streets in lines of undulating blue,
amid the martial crash of bands and the
frenzied huZZas of patriotic populace.
Nearly half a million spectators watched
the glorious pageant and bombarded the
marching legiOns with the roar of their
ccaseless cheering.
For two hours President Mckinley
stood in the reviewing stand, with Com
mander-in-Chief Clarkson and Gov.
Frank S. Black of New York at his SIDE
and acknowledged the greetings of the
battle-scarred hosts passing before him.
The President was deluged with cheers
and songs, shouts and flowers, and
through all the riot of noise and adulation
bowed and smiled and moved his COM
rades to renewed ecstasics of enthusia sm.
Buffalo was in fitting mood and garb for
the inspiring spectacle. Its people, re-en-
forced by 100000 from outside, choked
the walks and lawns from the brick walls
to the wire stretched along the line of
march at the curbstonc. They filled TO-
GOO windows and roofs, packed n score
of big stands, took to the trees in flocks
and squeezed into every nook that afford
ed view of the procession. The martial
columns moved for miles between two
solid, shouting walls of humanity, such n
living mass as had never been seen be-
fore in the Empire State outside the me-
tropolis.
The city was swathed in red. white and
blue. Public and private buildings were
smothered in the Stars and Stripes. The
trudging battalions were hemmed in on
both sides with futtering flags, and float
ing streamers hung from every window
and pinnacle. The decorations were on
a lavish scale and included many gorge
GUS designs. Noble arches spanned the

A NEW EXPLOSIVE.
"Mirex" Tested with Satisfactory
Results in Chicago

Chicago special: "Mirex," new ex-
ptosive, which its inventors claim will
revOlutiOnize modern naval warfare, was
tested in Lake Michigan with satisfactory
results. A brass cylinder measuring four
by one and one quarter inches and loaded
with the new explosive, was thrown into
the water. At The depth of five feet it ex-
ploded, sending column of water twen-
ty feet into the air. Another one exploded
at depth of fifteen feet with similar re-
suits, the depth at which the explosion
would occur being announced in advance
by the inventors. The inventors claim
that "sirex" can be thrown by cannon
to any distance and will explode in the
water at the depth desired. The ingre-
dients are secret. John II. Edelman, a
wealthy former Philadelphian, is said to
be backing The inventors.
