Ex-JuDGE NOTIFIED AT ESOPUS

The Notification Committee Sailed From
rev York city on the Steamboat Saga

the Formal speech and DIE. Parker
Replies ct Some Length.
Esopus, N. Y.-Aiton B. Parker was
formally notified at his home here Of
his nomination by the Democratic Ma
tionaI Convention at st. Louis as the
party's candidate for President of
the United States. The ceremony Of
notification was witnessed by many
distinguished Democrats, besides the
members of the notification committee,
and by most of Mr.. sParker's near rel
atives and a number Of intimate
friends. The exercises were somewhat
marred by bad weather, but the rain
of the morning held up sufficiently to
permit the delivery of the speeches
upon the lawn, as planned.
After Champ Clark, of Missouri,
chairman Of the notification commit
tee, had made a speech, closing with
the announcement OF the committees
mission to R0semOunt, Mr.. Parker re-
piled in speech Of some length, ac-
cepting the nomination and declaring
his stand on the issues involved in the
present canvass.
Notification day arrived with a
pouring rain, which set in just after
daylight. Judge Parker did not let
the rain interfere with his swim in
the Hudson at $50 o'clock in the morn
ing, but after breakfast he appeared
on the veranda Of his house and took
q survey of the weather
The steamer Sycamore, bearing the
notification committee of the Demo
cratic National Convention, reached
Rosemount wharf at LIS. The trip
Of the committee from the New York
City was attended with much discom-
fort to the passengers, due to contin-
uous rain.
On the Sagamore's arrival at Rose
mount wharf, the members OF the no.
tiication committee were formed in
line on TIE landing, and marched up
the hill path to. MIR. Parker's house.
The guests of the committee and the
other passengers disembafked five
minutes later, and arrived immedi-
ately after the reception of the notifi-
cation committee. Cord Meyer headed
the procession of the committee which
was met by Mr.. Parker at the south
entrance of his home. After all mem
bers of the committee had been intro
duced they passed around the veranda
to the grounds where the ceremonies
were held
Before the ceremonies were begun
the Seventh Regiment Band, which
was stationed on the grounds north Of
the house, played several selections.
There was no wait in the formali-
ties. As soon as the little party
reached the stand Mr.. Clark began his
address,
He was enthusiastically cheered
throughout, and at it's conclusion was
accorded an ovation, which was
merged into the reception extended to
Judge Parker.
Other speeches were made, and then
the candidate was presented with the
formal letter of notification, signed
by all the members of the committee.
Handshaking followed, and the noti-
fiers and their guests were taken
across the river on the Sycamore to
special train awaiting them on the
New York Central.

six payilions, at cost of $4,000, for
the express purpose of giving the plan

Each pavilion Is separate in itself,
with walls and roof Of glass. and only
sufficient metal work in its construc-

floors are Of cement, so as to be as
smooth and nonabsorbent as possible.
Bach pavilion is twenty-seven feet
wide and thirty-six feet long. Running
around the building is six-foot porch,
also surrounded by glass, The glass is
arranged in frames ten feet in height.
BY means Of an automatic device one
side of the building or all four sides
may be thrown open. The glass above
the doors is worked in the same way,
SO that in warm weather each tier of
glass frames may be opened, turning
the pavilion into little more than a
shed with a glass roof. The inside
glass is ribbed sufficiently to make it
opaque. The glass of the porches is
transparent.
The buildings are intended for use
