and Saluted. Eight infantry divisions
filed past, and every time the moving
forest Of bayonets passed cheers rent
the air. The infantry was followed by
the divisional artillery. twenty field
guns afront. the long slate-gray cannon
being kept in excellent alignment.
After the first four divisions of infan-
try came the cavalry-thirty-s regi-

came the dragons. carrying lances.
Regiments of hussars. in light blue
uniforms. with white facings, and
mounted chaSseurs in blue tunicS with
dark trimmings followed. Finally
came several regiments of cuirassiers.
The weather was perfect for the re
view.
The crownFAg feature of the review
was the charge of 10000 cavalry. The
cavalry lined up. twenty deep. on the
farther side of the review ground,
with the dragons in the center. As
the line moved forward General Bru-
gere rode to the center. 1t was
marvellous spectacle. TO watch the
horsemen approaching. The trumpets
could be heard sounding the trot until
about Il half mile from the reviewing
stand. when they blared forth the
charge On came the horses, the
thunder of their hoOfbeats mingling
with the rattle of accouterments. the
troopers waving their swords. Then
at fifty yards from the dais the call TO
halt burst from the trumpets, the Off
GERS waved their swords as a signal to
stop.

Paris, Sept 23-The car of Russia
left French soil at Pagny- Sur-M -M0selle
late Saturday night, after bidding fare
well to President LOubet at the station
ar Betheny All those responsible for
his safety breathed a sigh of relief, for
it had been n most anxious time. The
extraordinary vigilance exercised re-
suited. however, in his stay in France
from first to last passing without the
slightest untoward incident. At Pag
py-Sur- MOselle the cZar sent the fol-
lowing final message to President Lou
bet:
accept our sincere gratitude and be
good enough to interpret it to all those
who with touching cordiality have
taken part in the festivities of which
we have been the object. 1t is to the
French nation so much loved and ap-
preciated by Russia, that we address
our sincere thanks accompanied by our
warmest Wishes
salient Feature Was Military.
The salient feature Of the visit wtas
its military character. The cZar came
to see the French army, and he has
been seen himself by but few persons
except soldiers. His general demeanor
created the most favorable impression
among all who came in contact with
him. He was in constant good humor,
and evidently took pleasure in showing
satisfaction in the fact that he was
among allies and that he appreciated
the efforts made to render his visit
agreeable in every way.
And of all the military features the
review on the plains of Betheny was
the climax. The plain is about six
miles wide and two miles deep, and
here 10000 troops of all arms were
maSsed and reviewed by the car, the
president and the numerous generals
and other distinguished men which
formed the party in the reviewing
stand
Peep at the Great March Past.
After the ear had inspected the
troops the march past Was begun. The
troops were drawn up 100 files deep
and then the line extended for miles.
Suddenly, at n given signal. this vast
border began to swing around. thus
bringing the head of the line across
the review ground and in front of the
czar. The effect was to give the i'm
preston of wide stretch of landscape
slowly moving in n circle. The COM
mander-in-chief. General Brugere. sur
rounded by his staff. led the march
past. with the foreign military attaches
at some distance on his left. Behind,
in four heavy columns, marched 4
