NEW YORKIS NAVAL pageant
The Great Marine Parade in
Dewey's Honor.
BOATS BY THE HUNDREDS
Olympia and the warships Led the Pro-
cession-Sir Thomas Upton Shared
the Enthusiasm With the Here.

New York, Oct. 2.-The naval pa
rade, from the standpoint of the war
ships, was an immense marine picture,
a water pageant with so little of incl
dent, copamred with it's great size,
that it appealed to the eye as paint
ing rather than drama. The vast
gathering of water craft maintained an
average speed of eight knots, but so
magnificent was its area that the i'm
preston was one of exceingly slow and
stately movement. The picture was
continually changing, but it melted
lowly in such measured rythm from
form to form that the sense of motion
was largely lost. 1t started under
brilliant sky, passed at the mouth OF
the Hudson through the threat of an
ugly storm, and emerged through a
rainbow arch that stretched from shore
to shore into clear and brilliant
sunset off the Grant tomb.
The night had been busy one in the
feet of warships off Tompkinsvlle.
The last details of the days ceremony
were hardly settled before the day
itself broke on scene of greater activ-
ity than the classic anchorage had
ever witnessed before.
The great vessels of the white squad
ron swung at their anchorage as for
the past two days, but the crowd OF
neighboring craft had been swelled pas4
counting. AS far as could be seen the
water was mass of moving steamers.
The evolution began at O'Clock,
-, Grh livoo
was Strengthened out up the harbor.
Admiral Dewey was going to his own
place at the head of squadron that
would have won, at need, three battles
of Manila bay without stopping for
breakfast.
7 The head of the column was broad
arrow. Six torpedo boats spread out
at the bar, three on side, from the
Olympia's quarter. Outside of them
flying wedge of police patrol boats
formed a great v, whose apex was the
Olympia.
Flanking them, ahead and astern,
were the harbor fire boats, spouting
great columns of water that turned
threateningly toward the excursion
boats on either side when they at
tempted to crowd the line of march.
But the pageant back of this power
full vanguard was not limited to a
single or sextuple line of ships. 1t
was sinuous marine monster half a
mile wide, whose vertebrae were the
ships of the white squadron, and whose
ribs were rows upon rows of every sort
of floating thing that had ever run by
steam in New York harbor.
From the time the British yacht
Erin started she certainly was the
chief attraction along the river front,
after the Olympia had gone by, and
Sir Thomas Upton was accorded an
ovation all along the line. To those
ON board the Erin, decked out as she
was with flags of all nations, it looked
as if the American people were greatly
pleased with Sir Thomas, and were
delighted at an opportunity to give
him hearty welcome. They ran
alongside in tugs, barges, launches and
big excursion steamers, and shouted
all sorts of complimentary things to
him, while the tall yachstman on the
upper brigde of the Erin wore smile,
and not infrequently called back his
thanks for the kind wishes.

ALL FOR DEWEY.
Fifty Thousand Men in the Land Parade
Climax of Celebration.

Fifty Thousand Men In the Land Parade
Climax Of Celebration.
New York, Oct. S.-The land parade
today capped the climax. The city,
state and nation united in vast DEM
onstration worthy of the hero of Manila
The earth trembled beneath the tread
of $4,000 men, and the air was torn
with the shouts of millions. The ma
val parade of yesterday was magnifi-
cent and superb, but the wonder Of
modern times was the great land pa
rade. Thousands of proud men of our
land and sea forces, the militia of 15
states and the veterans of the civil and
Spanish-American wars swelled the
procession and gave it the. dignity in
size that it boasted in sentiment.
Admiral Dewey, the hero of the day,
and the officers of the fleet, in all the
glory of their gold-laced uniforms and
gold-trimmed cooked hats, were ir
open barouches. Mayor Van Wyck
sat beside Admiral Dewey. The front
seat of the carriage was banked with
beautiful floral pieces. The hero was
recognized by the people on the in
stant, and the cheers and huzzahs along
the line of march, seemed fairly to lift
the sky. Everybody cheered and nearly
everybody jumped up and down in
frantic enthusiasm

Cody Called for a Cut.

Col. Cody, the eminent scout, helpes
to build a church at North Platte, al
was persuaded by his wife and daugh-
ter to accompany them to the opening.
The minister gave out the hymn, which
commenced with the words: "Oh, for
ten thousand tongues to sing" etc.
The organist, who played by ear,
started the tune in too high key and
had to try again. A second attempt
ended like the first in failure. "Oh,
for ten thousand tongues to sing my
great" came the opening words for
the third time, followed by q squeak
from the organ and q relapse into pain
full silence. Cody could contain him
self no longer, and blurted out: "Start
it at ive Thousand, and mebbe some of
the rest of us can get in."-San Fran
