KNIGHTS TEMPLARS'
 PARADE A SUCCESS.
Twenty-Five Thousand Templars Were In Line, and the Spectators Esti-
 mated at One Million Souls.

Pittsburg Oct. l2. What Jerusalem was to the Crusaders almost 1000 years ago, that was this city yesterday to the Knights Templars. All night and early this morning every railroad leading into
 the city and every street car line enter
 ing from the surrounding suburbs came
 in loaded, cars holding thousands and
 thousands of people. The railroads an-
 ticipating the rush, had made every preparation to convey all corners to the
 "Mecca" of the modern pilgrims, and from radius of several hundred miles towns, hamlets and villages literally poured in their population into Pitts
 burg. There could not have been more beautiful day for the parade of the Knights Templars. The hour of the pa- rade was set at 10 o'clock, and from ear- ly dawn everybody and everything was astir at the various headquarters of the different communicates preparing for the march. In the yards of the rail- road depots and hotels all was life and hustle as soon as the first troops of the plumed knights, dressed in full regalia, with their various positions in order to appear on the street. Here bands were waiting on them and the march to the rendezvous began.
 By 8 o'clock all downtown streets were filled with different detachments of the paraders and each had its own band of music, martial airs that rent the air with medley, marches and pa. triotic songs as well were ealulated to inspire the greatest enthusiasm. Points of vantage nlong the route of the par ade rapidly filled up. Seats had been erected all along the line of march to &C., commodate 100000. It is estimated the parade was made up of upwards of 25, ,OO0 uniformed knights moving along in carriages, on horseback or on foot, and there were at least l ,000, 900 specta- tors lined along the route of the parade, which was four miles long. The parade was all that could be expected.
