 Bananas were cheap In New Orleans the other day." said A S.

 "It came about through one of fine steamers in the Honduras trade slibpine into port three days overdue When the vessel got to it's wharf it was Cfscoverad the bananas were too ripe for shInment north. There was nothing to do hui eive th m away. Probably thousand bunebes were aboard tn Vessel and when the io- cal merchants saw that everybodV couId get bananas they protested. After half or them had been dealt out to individiiajs tne balance were thrown into the water. F1Ve hundred punches did not seem like a great many, but when you consider that one bunch Is the heaviest stock A banana merchant usually carries, you can understand that the market was over stocked in that vicinity. The loss, how syer, Will hardly be felt fin the north, because tAere are too many steamers coming into port all the time with the rnlt from South and Central American

Washington surpassed itself in the
quantity and quality of its street dec
orations. Along the line of march from
the foot of the Capitol to the point of
dismissal at the upper end of Penn
sylvania avenue there was scarcely a
house front that was not almost hid
den from view by red, white and blue
bunting. The stands that had been
erected from which to view the parade
were more highly finished than on any
previous occasion. Being the work of
the inaugural committee, they were
uniform in character and their white
fronts and yellow facings acted as a
foil to the brilliant display of the ma
tional colors on the house fronts
around them.
The whole route of parade was a
g~orgeously patriotic sight. But 1t was
at the court of honor, constructed on
Pennsylvania avenue, between Fiji
teenth and Seventeenth streets, that
the decorators fairly surpassed in
pretty and effective decoration any
thing eve before seen here in street
enumeration on a large scale. Here
the scene rivalled that of an Italian
carnival display in the era of the
Medici. Probably no other public
thoroughfare in the world of equal
length lends itself more readily to ar
tistic decoration than this stretch from
the treasury to the state, wal and navy
departments building.
The brilliant pyrotechnic display
scheduled for the night was postponed
on account of the weather.
No Grand March at inaugural Ball.
The eliminating event of the inau-
gural festivities vas the inaugural ball,
held last night in the vast auditorium
OF the pension Office, with men and wo-
men distinguished in every walk OF
life touching elbows, dancing and min
Cling with the plain American citizen,
AS a spectacular event it was unparal-
lelled in the history of inaugural balls,
in the sumptuousness OF arrangement,
in the b~ewiidering splendor OF decora-
tions and of marvellous electrical et-
fects and in the countless throngs tax
ing part in the spectacle.
The United States marine band and
an orchestra of over a hundred pieces
were stationed at one end Of the hail,
and for an hour before the arrival of
of the presidential party played patri-
otto airs.
The presidential party arrived at
1915 o'clock. They were preceded by
a glittering array of officers in full
uniform, and were escorted TO the pri-
vate offices of Commissioner Evans,
which had been lavishly decorated.
Senator and Mrs. Hanna, Lieutenant
General and Mrs. Miles. several JUS
tees of the supreme court, with their
wives, and a number of the cabinet cir
Gle joined the party up stairs. The
crowds on the main floor had been
pushed back TO make room for the
grand march, and the band was ready
TO break into the opening strains of
the marsh from "T-annhaueser." But
word came that Mrs. Mckinley was in
disposed and that the president would
remain by her side. The march conse-
quently was abandoned. The band
struck up Strauss BLUE Danube" and
the first regret of the assemblage at
missing the grand march. with the
president and the first lady of the land
at its head, gave way before the whirl
