BUFFALO SHOW W
 STARTS IN EARNEST Great Exposition Was Formally
 Dedicated Yesterday REPUBLICS REPRESENTED Thousands of Troops lead a Great Parade Through city-stronser
 Demand for Closer Union
 of American Countries.

Buffalo, May 20.-In the presence of a vast concourse of people, with ceremon- ial both conventional and novel, the Pan-American Exposition was dedicated formally today. The day began with a parade. in which there were men from nearly every country in the world, and ended with an aerial bombardment from flying bombs and a brilliant electrical illumination. Between the two were the formal exercises of the dedication, with oratory that took its theme from the les son of the times; prayer for right, mu- sic, song and poetry.
 Two thousand troops led the way, and after them were a hundred carriages with the officials and guests. Behind them came the concessionaries from the Midway. Western Indians mingled with the children of the tropics, the orient and the Mediterranean, and gave the process sion its truest touch of color. They were in native costume, had a score of artis- tic floats, and fifteen bands furnished them music. The entry of the process sion to the exposition grounds at noon was magnificent spectacle. The crowd III tnC 6IOuhtS ht thO shiAAS SN fully 40,0O0. and the greater part of 1t was massed in the Esplanade.
 The formal dedicatory services in the presence of a crowd limited only by the size of the hall were impressive. There were strong demands for closer union among the American republics, and the remarks of Vice-President Roosevelt on that particular line, and the congratula- tory telegrams from the Presidents of the American republics excited the greatest enthusiasm.
 Republics Represented.
 All of the American republics were rep resented at the dedication and their mill tary attaches and commissioners were given conspicuous places in the group of special guests. Friendly expressions came by cable from national harbors and the local directors rejoiced in the kindly feel ing and interest shown.
 At the conclusion of the exercises In the Temple of Music there was a grand display of day fire works on the Esplanade and about the court fountains. There was first a salute of twelve aerial guns fired from steel mortars. At the same time twenty-seven 12-foot gas balloons. each lettered with the name of one of the Pan-Amer1can countries and carrying be- low the flag of it's country, were released Forty-five aerial rockets were fired, one for each State in the union. There was also a magnificent display of Japanese daylight works oriental kite displays. day. light bomb cloud shells, setting free American and Panama flags with sou venors of dedication day. and finally a grand salute of 800 large gun-cotton rock cts

SHAMROCK II WINS
 FROM THE OLD BOAT
The New Challenger Behaved Well and Made Much
 Better Time

Ryde, Isle of Wight, May 20.-The two Shamrocks raced today oyer an open sea course and Shamrock II. won. The wind was steady from the east and was blow ing club-top-sail breeze.
 At the start the challenger followed the Shamrock I. about three lengths astern, but length to windward. In fine, fresh breeze the boats keeled well over to the press of their enormous spread of can vass, making fast time. The first tack was to starboard and they fetched along ten or fourteen minutes, both lying equal ly close to the wind and apparently foot ing at about the same speed. The Sham rock I. tackled and the challenger also came round under her weather quarter. The challenger then pulled up and the yachts fetched along beam for beam in a long fast leg towards the island shore. When they next went about they were still close together, but as they hove about at different times there was Q con- siderable gap As they stood off again in a northeasterly direction at this time half an hour from the start, the boats appeared to be practically on the same footing as when they started.
 Turning at the weather mark the boats started sheets and reached along the wind for an inland shore breeze. Soon after they jibbed around the Erie still in close company but with the Shamrock II lead- ing The booms went over with sheets well out for a broad and easy reach for the line whence they started. The chal- lenger held her lead on this point of sail ing and was first to cross the line. The time at the finish of the triangular course of about seven miles was as follows:
 Shamrock II ........ ........ ........ 4:ol oV Shamrock I ........ ........ ........ 4:02:5
 The wind booms were squared away and spinnakers were set for a finishing trial before the wind. The Shamrock II drew away in excellent fashion. On the short run from the Nab to the Warner light ship she gained more than couple of minutes and passed the Warner leading by three minutes and four seconds.

RARE MINERAL

An Aspen. Colo, dispatch reports
the discovery In n of the mines In
that neighborhood OF "A vein OF cad
MUM. This Is a mineral which Is 80
rare that IL Is practically unknown to
most miners. The worlds total pro-
duction OF the metal amounts to only
about two tons a year. Hitherto II has
been found associated only with zinc
blende and in combination with sui
phur. The commercial metal has been
obtained as a %by-product in smelling
for the former, which Is done almost
exclusively In Silesia and Belgium.
Some kinds of zinc blende contain
from three to four per cent Of the
sulphuret OF cadmium. The vein
opened In Colorado is the first indie
pendent deposit OF the mineral ever
found. The ore contained in this de-
post Is said TO assay eight per cent
OF cadmium. The body OF the ore ex'
posed is represented to MI the face OF
