Occasi0n.

Omaha, June 3.-Amid the music OF
a hundred bands, the cheers of hun
lred thousand people, the blasts OF
many whistles and the waving OF IN
Vulnerable flags the Trans-Mississippi
and international exposition was died.
icated yesterday morning. Every
thing contributed to the smoothness OF
the final hours of preparation, and
nothing occurred to mar the occasion.
At $50 o'clock the great civic parade
started on its march from the center
of the city to the grounds. The Ma
tional Ma-.ue band led the splendid
pageant and a hundred musical or
CARNATIONS from the various states OF
the Middle West contributed to the oc-
casion. The parade was three miles
long, consisting of the officers and
guests of the exposition in carriages,
the semi-military organizations and all
the secret societies of this and adjoin-
ing states.
Early the special trains had begun to
unload their crowds, and the railroad
men estimated that at least 100000
people had arrived. These mingled
with the citizens Of Omaha and
formed one solid phalanx along the
route of the parade for ten miles.
Rev. DR.. Nichols of st. Louis opened
the exercises at the grounds with an
appeal to Him who doeth all things
WE'LL" to hover his blessings on the
enterprise and the people Of the trans
Mississippi region, especially" Presi-
dent G. w. Wattles, John l.. Webster
IF Omaha and John N. Baldwin OF
Council Bluffs eulogized the occasion.
President Mckinley addressed the as
sembled multitude by long distance
telephone, touched the magic button
and the exposition was open.
The weather could not have been
more propitious and not particle of
dust was in evidence.

The Supreme Court of the United
States, in decision rendered recently,
has sustained the claim of certain New
York Indians to the proceeds of the
sale of 100000 acres Of land formerly
owned by them il the state of Kansas.
The land was sold by the government,
and the proceeds paid into the treasury
OF the United States. The Indians lost
a suit instituted by them in the court
OF claims, but the supreme court has
reversed this ruling, holding that the
Indians had never made any formal
forfeiture of the land and that the gov
eminent could not possibly dispose of it.

Genuine regret will be awakened in
most of the civilized nations of the
world by the news of the death of
Edouard Remenyi, the Hungarian vi
olinist. In spite Of his we'll known
eccentricities Remenyi managed to
hold both the admiration of the gen.
eral public and the esteem of profess
sional musicians. He could play clas-
steal music after fashion all his own
and he could give popular tunes; he
could improvise by the hour and hold
interest; he could produce at will a
tone SO broad that it seemed to come
from something bigger than a violin,
and then he could vary it with a tone
which was mere shred of sound.

John r. Moore, who has succeeded
Judge Day as first assistant secretary
OF state, held place in that depart
ment under the Harrison administra-
ton. Appointed originally from Della
ware in the state department by Mr..
Bayard when the latter was secretary.
Mr.. Moore, by sheer merit and ability
worked his way up to the place of
second assistant secretary, and in that
capacity he served under several adj
ministrations without regard to polit-
ical changes. He resigned his place
IN the state department to accept the
chair Of international law at Columbia
university about three years ago, and
it is believed that his present appoint-
ment Is only temporary owing to his
1ndlsposition to permanently sever his
connections with Columbia. Mr.. Moore
is an authority on certain branches of
international law.
The one hundred and twentv-first

10, JOIN or die Patrick Henry's
men marched behind standard bear
ing rattlesnake in an attitude ready
to strike and the warning, Don't tread

this design: 'The ancients considered
the serpent an emblem of wisdom, It
is quite customary for countries to be
represented by animals peculiar to that
country. The rattlesnake is found no.
where but in America. Her eye is ex-
ceedingly bright and without eyelids-
emblem Of vigilance. She never be-
gins an attack and she never surren-
ders-emblem Of magnanimity and
courage. She never wounds even her
enemies until she generously gives
them warning not to tread on her. Her
thirteen rattles, the only part which
increases in number, are distinct from
each other, and yet so united that they
cannot be disconnected without break
ing them to pieces, showing the impos-
sibility of an American republic with
out union Of states" Doctor Frank

cafe where they replenished their ex- pended energies on the excellent food set before them from the kitchen of G. F. Richards.
 After dinner, having learned from his carpenter, approximately the amount of lumber he needed. MT. Cant went down the street to the Blinn lumber yard and spent several hours figuring with George N. Gage. He learned that he could do as'wel on lumber in Tempe as anywhere. ana therefore ordered about 19,OOO feet immediately.
 As he would now have more people than usual to feed consequent to hls building enterprise, and as he was short on groceries, he went into the store of William Goodwin and closed the days business by placing a large order for that young merchants stock in trade.
 A few minutes later an old gray horse giving evidence of the splend d care it had received at G. R. Finch's livery during the day, was seen leav- ing toyn with MT. Cant in the buggy behind, his characteristic foot hang ing out of the box and smile of sweet satisfaction Illuminating his counts- nance.
 The next morning he was in town bright and early. The first thing he did was to stop, on his way in, at the H. w. Ryder company's estab- lishment and figure with MT. John stcn on some hardware.
 While these two had their heads to- gether, Mr. Hendrix went down the avenue. He wanted aid in the con- structi0n of the house and nothing short of Justice Meyers would do i him, and to make the necessary ar engagements with that gentleman he went around to the court house where the two were closeted until noon. Now, then, as Mr. Cant is a highly respected citizen and, further, on ac- count of his going ahead with a so valuable improvement to the south side, his every move was of interest to the public, so it is professionally safe to mention that the next place he entered after leaving Ryder's was ! the Root drug store
