memory of those who saw it. In ad-
vance of the. Olympia was a double
line of patrol and fireboats, lilliputian
fleet to clear the way of unofficial tres
passers. 1t did not require much per-
suasion either as the shippers had
wholesome respect for the steel ram of
the mighty sea monsters.
On the port beam of the Olympia was
the escorting ship Sandy Hook, with
the Mayor and other dignitaries aboard.
and in her wake at intervals of 400
yards, stretched out mile long, were
the great towering warships the ar
mored cruiser New York. the battle
ships Indiana and Massachusetts. the
cruiser Brooklyn, second-class battle
ship Texas. the old wooden frigate
Lancaster. the gunhoat Marietta and
the Chicago, the flagship of the South
Atlantic squadron. Old Glory huttered
from each masthead and taffrail. On
each quarter of the New York were the
black, tow-lined torpedo boats, three
on each flank. The rest of the process
sion tailed out for miles. Slowly and
majestically the procession moved
across the shiny waters.
Admiral dewey went up on lHe dIIer
bridge as soon as the start was made
and remained there throughout the pa
rade. a heroic figure outlined against
the skies for the thousands afioat and
ashore. With him on the bridge most
of the time WAS Colonel Bartlett, to
whom he talked when he was not ac-
knowledging the salutes or personally
directing the movements of his imme-
date fleet, and the admiral gave close

stern with all the grace and attractive
ness known to shippers. But the dis
play in the East River was not to be
compared with that of the North River,
up which the procession was to pass.
From the peaks of every pier long
ropes strung with flags Of every hue
the corner, the fronts were decorated
with a multitude of gay devices. There
were flags on the staffs and lines of
| flags above the ropes.
The vessels at their sides were dress
ed from stem to taffrail and some car
| ried flags on their yards and had
their deckhouses covered The wind
shook the banners from millions of win
dows, pOrticoes and even steeples and
never, perhaps in this generation did
hearts that love it bound so quickly to
the sight of the flag. Up the river, far
off on the Jersey shore and high on the
misty Palisades it cleaned.
The best place from which to view
the great marine panorama was natur-
ally from the deck of the Olympia, and
by the courtesy of Admiral Dewey an
Associated Press representative was
permitted aboard. Very early the fleet
Of steamships, yachts and tugs which
We're to have place in the line began
moving down the bay to the allotted
points where the several divisions were
to form, but many of them could not re-

anchorage of the men-of-war off Tomp-
kinsville and before IL o'clock the
Olympia was surrounded by a perfect
mob of every known kind Of craft, all

Immediately after Admiral Dewey re-
turned from Sandy Hook the wig
wager on the bridge signaled the fleet
to prepare to get under way. The
gangways were hauled up and the
booms rugged. An old quartermaster
hurried small dark roll of bunting to
the main, hand over fist. 1t hung there
while the bugle sounded the call to
quarters and the marines were muster
ed aft. Then, just as the signal to
weigh anchor was given, pull on the
halyards opened the roll and spread the
four starred flag which Farragut flew
as he ran the forts in New Orleans. 1t
was the flag which was presented to
Admiral Dewey. AS it broke, sailors
at their stations and the marines on
the quarter deck greeted it with the
hip, hip hooray we got from our an
cestors The flag f1oated proudly all
through the pageant to-day 1t is the
most precious possession of Farragut's
pupil, and when it is struck on Monday
it will probably be forever, as it is alto
gether unlikely that Admiral Dewey
will ever command another feet.

anchors short hove, began to move.

wharves and shores of Staten Island
were covered with sightseers, watching
the fleet below. The warships lay spick
and span ready for the start, their bur-
nished metal flaming in the sun. their
sides white as virgin snow. Between
them and the shore lay the low, long,
lean, wicked-loCking torpedo-boats and
still, inside Of them, the graceful flo
tilla Of revenue cutters.
Aboard the Olympia the marines and
sailors had been critically inspected
from the toe of the first marine to the
jaunty cap of the last sailor. All
seemed a little dazed at the prospect
before them, and no doubt many would
have preferred a programme involving
a duplication. of the Manila fight to the
ordeal they were to go through. The
officers of the fleet did not wear their
snowy uniforms, but were attired in
special undress "A as it is technically
known in the navy. There were no gold
epaulets, gold-bound beavers and clat-
tering swords aboard. This was the ad-
mirals order and added but another to

gether with three. newspaper men, were
the only civilians aboard. One of the
naval guests was the engineer of the
Olympia when it led the way past Cor
regidor Island. He was given three
rousing cheers as he went forward to
see the men.

swarming with people, circling around
or pushing their noses close under the
ship to get a glimpse of the admiral
pacing the quarterback. The bands
aboard the excursion boats played and
the whistles and sirens of the other
craft made the air hideous by their
shrieks. They kept coming, coming, in
pairs and half-dozens, until they lay
d dozen deep, resisting the charges of
the patrol boats in their determination
to get up within shouting distance.
Their recklessness was amazing. They
ran across each others bows, they
rubbed against one another, they
pushed bow on stern. until further
movement seemed paralyzed by the in
extricable confusion. 1t was with
great difficulty that the police could
clear a passage for the admiral's s
launch when he went off to return the
official visit of the Mayor at noon, and
when he did step into his launch the
patriotic shippers afioat grabbed their
Whistling cords and made the hills
echo with such blast as can only be
heard when a Yankee yacht crosses

the prelude to what continued through

a failure through the application
not being thorough. The under
surface will sometimes lie missed,
or the spraying machine put in a
position where the upper surface of
the leaves receives little of the
spraying mixture. 1t is not wise
to spray where there is probability
of rain soon following, as in that
case the mixture is washed off, and
if by chance rain does follow,
another application should be made.
