THE PARADE.

1t was little after the appointed
hour when the long procession began
to move down High street towards
the Cemetery. The marshalls were
busy for an hour or two, before
everything was got in readiness Tor
the march, Their trouble was amp
ly remedied, however, in the perfect
procession and organization of the
parade. The streets were lined with
people on both sides, and the way OF
march was kept open with difficulty.
The long procession was headed
nv Col. James 5. Watson, Chief
Marshall, and Adjutant General W.

The prophecy that Morgantown
was to have the biggest celebration
of Memorial Day this May both, is
being gloriouslv fulfilled The city
is filled with people from the country
and neighboring towns; the dis
tinguished guests are all here, the
bands are playing patriotic airs,
flies ale screaming, colors are flying,
amusement booths are open on every
hand, the crowd is jolly, and is
wearing holiday attire and faces, the
day is a grand success in every par
ticular. Even the weather man has
been reasonably propitious.
The celebration of Decoration day
began with booming Of cannon at
six O'clock this morning and the
town awoke. 1t stretched itself
sleepily and then began to get in
shape for the big time.
A glance was taken at the SIX aud
it was determined that today was to
be threatening one but that the
chances favored a fine celebration
free from tue risk OF rain.
Then attention was turned 10
decorating residences and business
houses. Soon the amount of bunt-
ing and flags displayed became q
prominent feature and the town put
on gala appearance.
Streets had been washed as clean
as possible and the sidewalks had
been swept.
Tie town looked its best. Crowds
of people began to appear and soon
the streets were crowded. Many o.
those in the throngs had noise
making machines of one kind Oh
another and they proceeded to make
themselves a general nuisance.
At nine o'clock the cadet corps o
the University with their band went
to the depot and escorted the speak
ers and other prominent visitors tt
their hotels.
In the meantime the parade was
forming, red faced men gallopee
around shouting orders to which ne
one paid the least attention, and ii

OLD CITY OF MEXICO
CURIOUS LEGENDS THAT FLOURISH
IN THE ANCIENT TOWN.

Its Picturesque streets, With Their
ous:snt Customs and Traditions and
-i4lGuIar Nanes-The story of the
street OF the Raven.
Every old city has it's legends, its
stories, its peculiar customs and its
characteristic quarters. OF all the cit
les in the new world, Mexico has clus-
tered within il more of legend, history,
tradition and quaint customs and peo-
pie than any other. Almost every
street has its story, and these stories
cover all the gamut of the picturesque,
the horribR, the sentimental and the
pathetic.
In its early history the City of Mex
leo was divided into wards, or quar-
tiers, each one of which wasSthe special
home of some trade or profession.
There was the street or quarter of the
shoenlakers, the streets of the silver
smiths, of the bakers, of the saddle
makers. of the butchers, of the watch
makers, of the silk merchants, of the
wine sellers and so on. There was
even the street of the coffin makers.
Many of these old names still exist,
though the caste-like character of the
streets has somewhat changed. One OF
the most fashionable streets of the city
is Plateros, the street of the silver
smiths. Even today there are more
tewelry shops on this street than any
Bther kind of business, and here still
are to be found the most fashionable
jewelry and art curio stores of the city.
The street of the coffin makers still
exists and is now very appropriately
known as the Street of Death. 1t is
narrow lane, running the length of
only one block.
Cinco de Mayo 9th of May) street
was named in commemoration of the
decisive advantage gained by Mexican
troops over the French, which took
place upon that date. This naming of
streets. parks and public places after
dates is common in Spanish countries.
One end of Cinco de Mayo street en-
tiers the Zocalo, the principal square of
the city. The Zocalo has seen many
historic happenings. There in oldeD
times was the great temple of the Az
tees, which was, with its accompanying
base or pyramid, larger than st. Pc
ters at Rome, the largest church build
ing in the world. There, too, was the
palace OF Montezuma, in fact, two pal
aces, both noted, one the old, in which
were quartered Cortez and his officers,
building VA. use vast size excited the
admiration OF even the Spaniards them
selves, used as they were to the vast
structures of the Moors of their day,
which still existed in Spain in all their
splend0r-
On the Zoralo, too, is the Cathedral
of Mexico. the third largest church
building in the world, which occupied
100 years in building. On this public
square the common people believed for
long time that the ghost of the unfor-
tunate Aztec emperor, Montezuma,
wandered.at night lamenting the loss OF
empire and the destruction of his peo-
pie. Even today. the humber folk be-

CHILDREN SOLD IN FAMINE.

Parents, Says Canton Consul, Are
Starving In Chinese provinces.
Hundreds of women and children
have been sold for 50 each in Kwangsi,
China, by their starving husbands and
fathers, according to a report on the
famine which has just come to the
state department at Washington from
the United States consul at Canton,
Mr. McWade. Unless the rice crops of
July, August and September are plen-
tiful, he adds. the distress, now slightly
alleviated by American missionaries
and others, will continue in all its in
tensity
at certain mission chapels in Kw0ng
81 thousands of natives are given lit
tie food each day-as much as the mis-
sionarieS are able to give-and in some
places the gentry give the poor three
ounces of rice per day. The emperor'S
temple at one place was given over to
the poor. Mr.. McWade appeals TO the
people of the United States for help
and says that contributions can be
sent to him through the Hongkong and
Shanghai Banking corporation, the
Guaranty Trust company of New
York and the International Banking
corporation of the same city. The con-
sui several weeks ago telegraphed the
department that in certain parts of
KwangSi the bodies of dead victims of
the famine were eaten by the suffer
ers.' This. however, is not mentioned
in his mail report, which bears date of

Iie.e that tunnel connects the cathe-
draI with the castle of Chapultepec, the
presidential residence, three and i half
miles away, at the end of the Paseo de
In Reforml. one of the finest and no.
blest public drives in tie world.
One of the historic streets of Mexico
is Mariscala. This faces the north side
of the Alaraeda, the largest and most
fashionable park of the city. 1t was
along this street that the army of Cor
tez, the great conQuerOr of Mexico,
passed on the dismal night when he
was driven from the city by the AZtecs.
On this street, too, occurred some Of
the most desperate fighting on that ter
rible night. There the Spaniards were
able to do nothing against the tiger-like
ferocity and fanaticism of the Aztecs.
On the opposite side of the Alameda
is Avenida Juarez. named after the
great Mexican reformer. who had freed
the country from the grinding rule of
the church. This is a wide, we'll paved
street and on account of its width and
its central location is the scene of all
the public professions. especially those
of civic character. This street is a
continuation of the great public drive,
the Paseo de Ia Reforma.
Many of the streets have very curious
names. For instance. there are the
Street of the Lost Child, the Street of
Peace, the Street OF the Arts. that of
the Wood Owls, the Deer, Sorrow, the
Sad Indian, the Holy Ghost. of Christ.
of Jesus, of the Sanctifed Virgin. of the
Purified Virgin. of Death and the Lane
Of Do Of ho 81
connected with them. Many of the
streets have names that sound impious
to northern ears. But there is no more
thought of impiety in naming them
than there is in calling boy Jesus. The
Street of the Holy Ghost was original
ly the Street of the Church of the Holy
Ghost SO on with the other streets
bearing sacred names. This curious. in
congruous use of sacred names is to be
frequently noted in Mexico.
The streets of Mexico commemorate
the names of many famous rulers. They
also record the names of desperate
characters. There is the Street of Don
Juan Manuel. who committed murder
in defense of his own honor. which he
believed his wife had trified with. Re
port says that the house where he lived
was haunted and for very many years
it remained empty because no one
dared TO live in it.
There is also the Street of the Raven
where it is said there lived an old man
who had sold his soul to the devil. Here
he lived with a raven which the COM
mon people believed was the devil in
disguise. One day the old man and the
bird disappeared i'm the course of Il ter
rible thunderstorm, leaving behind
them only a few feathers and a sus-
picious smell of birthstone. So the stree;
was called after the raven because the
people did not wish to take the name OF
tho devil in vain.-- Modern Mexico.

One of the most remarkable cases
of cold, deep-seated on the lungs.
causing pneumonia, is that of Mrs.

His Education Wasn't Complete.

His Education Wasn't Complete.
No more courteous judge ever pre-
sided at trial than the venerable for
mer justice of the New York court of
common pleas, Charles Z. DAILY. The
story is still told among our New York
lawyers how on one occasion young
attorney, while trying u case, INDUCED
in considerable vituperation of his op-
ponent's witnesses, finally going so far
as to answer the court very sharply
when requested to modify his Ian
guage.
Knowing that Judge DAILY was some
what of a stickler for the dignity of
the judiciary, lawyers and court at
PENDANTS gazed at the offending attor-
ney in amaZement.
There was a long interval of silence.
Finally the judge leaned over the bench
and said. with an ironical smile:
My young friend, before you are as
old as | am you will have learned that
it is about as we'll to read Chesterfield
as Blackstone Success.

Sounds Both ShriII and Low That
We Cannot Hear.


Most people suppose mole to be
dumb but 1t is not. y mole can give
a sou,sl so shrill that it hasn't any
effect on the human ear at all and an
other sound so low and soft that no
human being can hear it. Yet n wea-
sci can hear both these sounds as plain
~ as you can the report of a gun, and
sound registering machine-the pho
nautograph--will show them both. with
scores of other sounds You are deaf to-
The usual note OF the mole is a low
pur. which il uses good deal while
ut work underground. and il can also
shout at the top of its voice if hurt or
alarmed; but. though it shouted and
purred in your ear, you wouldn't hear
it. The sound register. however. with
its delicate pencil that marks the vol
ume of sound on paper, gives the
quality of both sounds.
a weasel. too, which is one of the
moles enemies, can hear these sounds
through a couple of inches of earth
and often catches the mole when he
throws up his hillocks of earth. The
common field mouse. too, has pur

you can hear him squeak plainly
enough if he is hurt. A deaths head

Often you may see q thrush stand
perfectly still OH your lawn, cock his
ear and listen intently, then make a
