waved his hat at the cheering crowd.
At the reviewing stand he took his
position with COMMUNICATIVE Chief
Clarkson, and Governor Black and the
headquarters staff passed in review.

astic or more affected by the sight than
President Mckinley. With his hand
on his hat, continually uncovered to the
national colors or sthe salutes Of the
veterans. the president watched the
array of proud veterans march by 1t
was certainly u column to inspire ad-
miration. Such men as Secretary of
