who had been booked for fishing perform
ance today, looked tired and disgusted.
Mr.. Sherman smiled his peculiar icy smile
and Mr.. Mitchell looked as il he wanted
to get out and take a hand in getting the
procession in motion. This was the only
special incident of the three hours in which
it took the parade to pass around the Peace
Monument
Although the people had seen Mr.. Mo
hinley in the morning, they Were liberal

not al confined to the distinguished gen.

military and about 5000 in civic orgaai-
ZationS. The crack soldiers of States and
OF the United States, with FURNISHED arms,
nodding plumes, and brilliant uniforms,
passed in review before practically the
whole city, and the crowd waited until
the last plume had disappeared and the
echoes OF the last band had died away
iIrthe distance. The details of the line,
the personnel OF the staffs, and the names
OF the various commands are given else

array which, with the good win and applause
of the whole city, escorted the new FRESH

spent most of their time in Good-uatured
exchange OF mingled compliments and
railery over their retirement It is said
they will all meet again a a farewell din
ner at the house OF one OF their number to-
night.
IL is an interesting fact that although
President Cleveland has now passed from
authority. his entire Cabinet is still in
office and will remain SO until noon
today. But none of the retiring officers
will perform any except the most neces-
sary and minor office duties during the
few hours that they remain in office.
Commenting on the beautiful day, Sec
retary Sterling Morton remarked that it
presages good luck FOR Mckinley. You
remember how il storIned when Cleveland
came in he said, and you all know it
has been storming ever since"

FAREWELL TO HIS CABINET.
Mr.. Cleveland Spoke the Words in
the Presidents Room.

At 1850 the retiring and incoming
Presidents arrived at the Capitol. Presi-
dent Cleveland was escorted to the mag
neutrality-suspicious. apartment which bears
the Presidents name, although never oc-
cupied by him, except for few minutes
every fourth year. The President was
looking exceedingly well, and dressed
with quiet elegance. He parted from
Major Mckinley, who was escorted to the
Vice Presidents chamber, and expressed
his last official good wishes to his sue
cessor.
The retiring Cabinet was present, and
the President here said his last words
of farewell to his Cabinet associates
Senator Shoup and Representative
Phillips were awaiting in the Senate
corridors with the labor commission bill
which they were eager to have the Presi-
dent sign. But he persevered in his pur-
pose to affix his signature to no legisla-
ton with the details OF which he was
not perfectly familiar before he came to
the Capitol. And he did not make stroke
of the pen after the actual moment of
IL, although, owing to unavoidable delays
in the arrangements, his actual authority
extended for some time longer.

President Cieyeland's Last Hours
There-nepart rture for the Capitol.

Grover Cleveland, who retired yesterday
at noon from the office of President OF the
United States for the second time, found
the first half of his last day Of service a
busy one.
He was up with the lark notwithstan ding
the punishment he experienced in walking
about his office, because OF his rheumatic
gout, which had given him no little trouble
for the past week.
Congress had sat all night. Enactments
from that body began coming to him as
early as O'Clock, demanding his approval
before they became a part OF the statutes
of the nation.
The President was up and breakfasted
much earlier than usual. 1t was his last
day OF g. fOur-yaars' term as Chief Execu-
tive. He had spent similar day on the
4th of March, 1889, when he, for the first
time, surrendered his post to his chosen
successor, Benjamin Harrison.
The sun rose without cloud in the sky.
As its rays planted a kiss upon the cap-
stone OF the Washington Monument which
was in full view of the Presidents window,
that official soon to retire to the ranks
of plain citizenship, was examining bills
which had been passed by Congress dur
ing the night. he read on with great care.
The morning times., 1897-03-05

As the carriage departed from the en-
trance the President and the President
elect raised their hats and bowed grace
fully to Mrs. Cleveland, who was a Ioem
In lovelincss standing at a window OF the
second story gazing down upon the dis
tinguishcd party in the carriage. The reins
over the horses were in custody OF Sam
Beckett, who drove for Mr.. Cleveland when
he was inaugurated four years ago.
Policeman West, colored, WHO Eas ! iCden
i'll advance of every President and Pres
ident elect since and including Grants
second Inauguration, was again at his
post yesterday. West is the policeman
who once arrested President Grant FOR
fast driving. The President paid a fine
of $50, and In a short time thel ea1ter
West was promoted at the personal solict
tation OF the President.

Big Four At the time the Cincinnati
Southern was owned by the Erlanger syndi-
cate Mr.. Schif was president of the COM
pany.
Harry Miller, superintendent of the Van
dalia main line, was in the city yesterday.
The company has received the last six miles
of heavy steel rail contracted for by Re
ceiver Malott and it will be in the track
within the next ten days
Caesar Rodney, general agent of the Van
dalia at this point, states that the local
business out of Indianapolis has increased
handsomely in the last three weeks and is
now considerably exceeding in tonnage that
of the corresponding period of 1896.
The power of the Cincinnati, Hamilton &
Dayton is now in such satisfactory condi-
ton that the company is sending but few
locomotives to the Indiana, Decatur q
Western shops to be rebuilt, and this has
resulted in the dropping Of a few men at
these shops.
The officials of the Yandalia were notified
of a freight wreck at Plainfield and at 1908
p. m. the wreck whistle at Terre Haute
was sounded. Every one of the crew was
at home, but in eleven minutes from the
time the whistle was blown the wrecklng
train and crew started for the scene.
The accommodation trains on the Van
dalia which We're changed on Monday TO
run between Indianapolis and Et1ngham IN
stead of between Indianapolis and Terre
Haute had been running between the last
named points on the same schedule since
the road was opened, and We're considered
the pleasantest and easiest runs on the
made the hardest runs.
The presidents of the Western lines are
considering the new freight agreement,
which, il adopted, is to become effective
June /, replacing the Western Joint Traffic
Bureau. This new organization Will be
known as the Western Freight Traffic AS
ISOLATION, and it's agreement has been pre-
pared on lines suggested by the members of
the board of administration of the Joint
Traffic Bureau.
H. M. Carr, general manager of the Mil
waukee q Michigan fast freight line, died
suddenly of heart disease at Milwaukee
yesterday. He was tifty-four years OF age.
six well-known Milwaukee railway men
have died suddenly. They were T. A.
Price, of the Wisconsin Central; w. w.
BROMLEY, of the Big Four; Charles
Heithbahm, of the st. Paul; j. N. Robin
son, of the Northern Pacific; Charles
Wilds, who occupied the Office with Mr..
Carr, and Mr.. Carr himself.
The new tug Helen contracted for by the
Chesapeake q Ohio for use at Newport
News arrived at that place on Monday and
went into commission at once. The Helen
is one hundred feet long, draws twelve feet
of water, has 400 horse power compound
engines, is equipped with powerful fire
fighting apparatus, lighted by electricity
and carries a search light OF great power.
The boat was inspected by George w.
Stevens, general manager, and other Off
cialS, and they were so we'll pleased with
it's performance that a duplicate was or
dered built as soon as possible to take the
place of the Wanderer, which was burned

the first opportunity of witnessing the best
work of this wonderfully gifted artistic.
The act will be presented with proper stage
accessories and in costume. The score of
the Bird Song" from David's opera La
Perle du Bresil' is remarkable for the diff
culties of its colorature passages, IN
variably regarded as the strongest test of
vocal technique
The present tour of Calve, will end soon
after the concert here. The prima donna
Will sail for France before June to begin
her preparatory rehearsals for the frSt pro-
duction of Massenet's lie Sapho" in Paris.
She will return to this country in the fall
of 1888 at the head of her own opera COM
pany.
1t is hoped that there will be a large
festival tomorrow night, for many people
consider it the best of the SERIES Nine.
ClemeRtine De Vere-Sapio, who will make
her trSt appearance here, is one OF the few
really great singers now before the public.
MIR. David Ffrangcon-DaVieS, who Will also
be one of the soloists, has achieved a high
reputation on both sides OF the Atlantic.
Mr.. Evan Williams is the best tenor now
engaged in festival work. and besides these
Miss Sara Layton Walker and Mr.. Oliver
Willard Pierce, local favorites, will make
their appearance.
The Wagner concert Friday night is also
coming IN for its share of attention, for the
selections to be given are most attractive,
and Miss Ella Russell, the much com
mended American prima donna, Will sing in
it with Mr.. Ffrangcon-Davies.
The childrens chorus will have another
rehearsal al Tomlinson Hall this afternoon.
It will be one of the great features of the
festival.

Festival Notes.

Among the parties that reserved seats
yesterday were those from Wabash, Lafay-
cite, Hope, Muncie, Logansport and An
derson.
Many of the bassos are particularly care
ful or their voices, and the most Of them
took advantage of the privilege to bring
thelr wives or SWeetheartS along as escorts
last night.
Professor Black, one of the oldest voice
builders in Indianapolis, is so enthusiastic
over the festival that he has one of the
FESTIVAL posters. tackled up in his house on
Sixteenth street
A large number Of tickets have been re-
served and set aside on orders. These must
be called for at the Big Four ticket Office
to-day, as those not paid for will be put
on sale again after to-day.
A telegram was received by the directors
manager OF Calye, stating that he will
rive with her Friday evening. This will
give her a good rest for her concert Satur-
day night.
The veteran Papa" Barus, to whom the
indianapolis chorus owes much, for it was
ne that dld SO much to give it an impetus,
has been a visitor at rehearsals He is
much pleased at the work Mr.. Van der
Stucken has done with the chorus.
Some of the. chorus members thought the
MasSan1el" chorus a bit tiresome, but when
IL was sung last night with the orchestra
1T was readily found to be one of the most
beautiful things ever given here. 1t has
decidedly operatic rhythm and swing.
Saturday evening when Calve will sing
all OF the compositions will be by French
composers One of the frequent admoni-
tons of the director in the rehearsals of
Companions, Come" is make it F'renchy,"
a certain sparkle and dash being the de-
sired style for the bright music and light
words
1t was the sentiment of a number who
attended the rehearsal last night that the
fewer the decorations in the hall the bet
ter it will be, as the simple tone coloring
of the mural decoration gives better eff
feet when left without flags or bunting.
Flags and bunting also have the effect of
"smothering' good tones.

BLEEDING PILES

And all other forms of this common and
often dangerous disease readily cured with
out pain or inconvenience.
Thousands of men and women are af-
flicted with some sort of piles without
either knowing the exact nature OF the
trouble, or knowing it, are careless enough
to allow it to run without taking the simple
means offered for radical cure.
The failure Of salves and ointments to
permanently cure piles has led many to be-
lieve the only cure to be surgical opera
ton.
Surgical operations are dangerous TO life
and moreover not often entirely successful
and at this time are no longer used by the
best physicians or recommended by them.
The safest and surest way to cure any
case of piles, whether blind, bleeding or
protruding, is to use the Pyramid Pile Cure,
composed of healing vegetable oils and abb
solutely free from mineral .,oisons and OPT
ates. The following letter from Pitts
burg gentleman, a severe sufferer from
bleeding piles, gives some idea of the
prompt, effectual character of this pile
cure. He writes:
/ take pleasure writing these few lines to
let you know that 1 did not sleep for three
months except for a short time each night
because of a bad case of bleeding piles. l
was down in bed and the doctors did me no
good good brother told me of the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure and / bought from my drug
gist three ifty-cent boxes. They cured me
and l will soon be able TO so TO my work
again. WILLIAM HANDSCHU,
Forty-siXth street, Cotton alley, below
Butler street, Pittsburg, Pa.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is not only the
safest and surest remedy for piles put -
the best know and most popular Every
physician and druggist in the country
knows ii and what it will do.
Send for the little book on cause and cure
of piles, describing all forms of piles and
the proper treatment.
The Pyramid can be found at all drug
stores at so cents per package.
