The vast amphitheatre was gayly decked with
the Stars and Stripes and red. white and blue
bunting. The entire roof was ceiled with a
graceful drapery. Bands were stationed at op-
posite ends Of the Garden, and while the audi
ence which arrived early was waiting for the
Governor it melted the bands to outdo each
other by whistling accOmpaniments to all the
patriotic airs which the musicians played Two
uuartets also sang alternately, and were joined
by the audience. One quartet was clearly being
outsung by the other, but it promptly reversed
things by producing megaphones and singing
through them. Save a megaphone for Teddy
if he's hoarse!" roared voice from the topmost
gallery and great shout of laughter followed
the sally.
The Governors voice proved 10 be in excellent
condition. however, and he held the closest at
tention of his great audience from start to finish
A few persons tried to interrupt him from time
to time as he spoke with shouts of "Ice!' ice!
but they were speedily silenced by those who sat
beside them, and when loud protest followed
his allusion to Mr.. Croker working for his own
pocket all the time" the Governor himself
quickly turned the tables on the disturbers by
shouting: Il am not slaEdering Mr.. Croker;
am quoting him."
THE CROWD APPRECIATED 1T.
The crowd was quick to appreciate the retort
and delighted shouts of Give it to them,
Teddy Throw it into them Governor arose
from many parts of the Garden.
The Governor tore many of Mr.. Bryan's foolish
arguments all TO pieces, and even made the
s,irIv Tammany police officials smile when, in
sneaking of the Populst- st-DemOcratc candidates
bugaboo of "miIitarism," he explained that New
York's proportional share of the Regular Army
would not exceed one-third of the metropolitan
noItce force and spoke sarcasticaIly of the ter
ror'' which the seventy-tive million inhabitants
of this country must feel for army which
could only furnish eighty-six hundredths of one
soldier for every one thousand of our citizens
" answer 10 Bryan's charge that our soldiers
walk about in idleness the Governor exclaimed,
in a fine strain of mingled pathos and indig-
nation: General Lawton no longer walks about
In idleness," and the audience cheered the mem

it's patriotic pride for what the Governor feel
ingly called -our gallant little army
